Opinion

Per Curiam.

Writ of error dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Sayward v. Denny, 158 U. S. 180; Mutual Life Ins. Co. v. McGrew, 188 U. S. 291, 307, 308; State v. Bland, 186 Missouri, 691, 701, Oxley Stave Co. v. Butler County, 166 U. S. 648, 653; case below, 209 Missouri, 35.

The attention of the state Supreme Court was not called to any Federal question until in the petition for rehearing, and that was too late. Loeber v. Schroeder, 149 U. S. 580 585; and cases.

The judgment rested on non-Federal grounds broad enough to sustain it. 209 Missouri, 35; Cincinnati Street Ry. Co. v. Snell, 193 U. S. 30; Hammond Packing Co. v. Arkansas, 212 U. S. 322.
