Where no right of appeal existed when the final judgment was entered in the Supreme Court of a territory, an appeal or writ of error will not lie under the Act of March 3, 1905, 33 Stat. 1035, granting appeals in certain cases, because after final judgment a petition for rehearing was entertained and not finally denied until after the passage of the act.
