We affirm the order of the District Court for the Northern District of New York dismissing the appellant's petition for a writ of habeas corpus, as there was probable cause for the appellant's arrest and ample evidence to support his conviction in the New York County Supreme Court for carrying concealed a loaded weapon in violation of New York Penal Law, McKinney's Consol.Laws, c. 40, § 1897 [2].
