Appellant, a Chinese person, was ordered deported by a • United States commissioner on September 1, 1916. On October 2, 1916, he took an appeal to the. District Court, and was enlarged on bond. A' motion was filed on' behalf of the United. States, to dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction, on the ground that it was not taken in time. For some reason not dis- . closed, the matter rested until May 27, 1922, without action of any kind, and op that day a rule issued ordering appellant to show cause • yvhy. the- appeal should not be dismissed. Service of the rule was made, .on appellant’s i attorney of record,: and he answered setting i,up that appellant was out of the jurisdietion. of the court, that he did not know his whereabouts, and that he had no objection /■.to.the dismissal.of the appeal. On June 17, . 1922, the appeal was dismissed by the District Court. Nothing further was done until August 9,, 1926, when appellee took appellant into custody under the warrant .of deportation, and confined him in the House of Detention .in. New Orleans. ' Appellant then sued out a. writ of habeas corpus on . the .ground , that the warrant of- deportation issued by the commissioner became null and void, and was vacated by the appeal,.and that.no -order.of deportation had been issued by the District Court. From an adverse decision on the • application' for the' writ of habeas corpus, this appeal'is prosecuted.

It is useless to discuss the questions raised and argued on behalf of appellant. It is sufficient to say that the appeal from the order of the commissioner was not taken in time. Appellant had ten days in which to appeal from the order of the commissioner (title 8, § 282, USCA), and did not do so.' The District Court was without jurisdiction to entertain the appeal, and the dismissal left the order of the commissioner in full force and effect.

Affirmed.
