Shreveport v. Holmes
Supreme Court of the United States · Decided January 9, 1888 · Waite
125 U.S. 694; 8 S. Ct. 1389; 31 L. Ed. 854; 1887 U.S. LEXIS 407 (United States Reports)

Shreveport v. Holmes

Opinion

Mr. Chief Justice Waite

delivered the opinion of the court.

These petitions are denied. The rehearing was granted in Home Insurance Co. v. New York, 119 U. S. 129, after a decision by a divided court, because an important constitutional question was involved. The questions in these cases are not of that character.
