the case made by the call in warranty against John B. O'Leary the exception of no cause of action was well taken and the call properly dismissed. This leads to an affirmance of the judgment of the trial court. However, in order that the plaintiff in error may not be prejudiced hereafter in asserting any rights that may have grown out of the correspondence referred to in the call in warranty, we think the judgment of the trial court should be amended by adding to the same "without prejudice," and, as so amended, the judgment of the District Court is affirmed, with costs.

III. DECISIONS REVIEWABLE.

(D) Finality of Determination. 80(1) (U.S.C.C.A.)

Act Jan. 29, 1795, Act April 14, 1802, Act March 3, 1813, and Act June 26, 1848, entitled to naturalization upon his return, having been without the United States for practically half of the five-year period.-Id.

70 (U.S.C.C.A.) An order of naturalization cannot be treated as a judgment precluding the government from questioning it under Naturalization Act June 29, 1906, § 15, because under section 11 the government can appear in opposition.-United States v. Mulvey, 471.
