I transmit herewith a writ of certiorari in the case of the U. S. vs. Alfred Huger and Charles T. Lowndes.

I will thank you to send the writ to this office, with the proper return. You will also please return the transcript as soon as you have examined it, as it is the only copy in our possession.
Very respectfully yours,

Assistant Attorney General.
