The case out of which this proceeding grows was before us by direct appeal. By the decision of this court the judgment of the district court of Payne county was reversed; For the reasons stated in the opinion in that case (Minnie Allen v. State, ante, p. 533, 165 Pac. 745), the petition for writ of habeas corpus will be denied, and it is so ordered.
