Opinion — Waite

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.
