Opinion of the Court

PRENDERGAST, J.

The relator was in-dieted for murder, and was on his petition granted a hearing upon habeas corpus. The court below remanded him without bail. .We have carefully gone over the record, and it is our opinion that the judgment of the district judge denying bail was wrong. We hold that the appellant was entitled to 'bail. We reverse the judgment of the district court denying bail, and fix the amount.of the bond at $2,500.
