The opinion

Mr. Justice DANIEL.

I dissent from the decision of .the court in this case, it being my opinion that neither the circuit" court nor this "court could take jurisdiction over the parties to. this suit; and that, therefore, this cause should be remanded to the district court, with directions to dismiss it for want of jurisdiction.
