   VAN DEVANTER, J.,

announced the ruling.

By leave of court, a petition for rehearing was filed. The cases had been presented in oral argumlent three times, but three members of the court had heard only the last presentation. This, with the importance of the questions involved and the public character of the litigants, led the court to grant the rehearing, which was had.

The cases have been considered again in the light of that presentation, and after further reflection the court perceives no bround for disturbing the opinion announced or the decree entered therein. Decree reaffirmed.

Chief Justice Taft did not participat and Justices Holmes, McReynolds and Brandéis dissent as per their former opinions.
