ERROR TO THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA
Evans v. United States, No. 922, ante, 153 U. S. 584, followed.
This case was argued with No. 922, ante, 153 U. S. 584. It was also an indictment against Evans for a willful misapplication of the funds of the Spring Garden National Bank. The indictment originally contained 152 counts, upon all of which except 57 a nolle pros. was entered. The same proceedings were had as in the former case. The defendant was convicted upon all the counts and sentenced to imprisonment for two years at and from the expiration of such imprisonment as he might undergo by reason of the sentence in the prior case. He subsequently sued out this writ of error. A reargument was ordered upon the fifth to the eleventh counts inclusive, and upon the fourteenth, fifteenth, sixteenth, and twentieth counts.
MR. JUSTICE FIELD dissented for the reasons stated in his dissenting opinion in Evans v. United States, ante, 153 U. S. 584.
