Opinion

Mr. Chief Justice Waite

delivered the opinion of the court. This writ of error is disinissed on the authority of Hecht v. Boughton, 105 U. S. 235. The case was not tried in the. court below by a jury. This, under the act of April 7th, 1874, c. 80, 18 Stat. 27, made it necessary to bring the judgment here for review by appeal and not by writ of error.

Dismissed.
