1Opinion of the CourtRylaND, Judge
The only question in this case involves the authority of the judge of the Circuit Court of St. Louis county to let the pris*328oner, Bamsey, to bail. He was indicted for a felony by the grand jury of Franklin county, before the Franklin county Circuit Court. He applied for and obtained a change of venue. The Franklin Circuit Court changed the venue to the Criminal Court of St. Louis county, instead of the St. Louis Criminal Court. While the cause was pending before the Criminal Court, the party, Bamsey, was brought before the judge of the St. Louis Circuit Court and let to bail.
