The Immigration Inspector has signed an order for the deportation of a Hindu, one of the passengers of the Komagata Marti. This action will supply a test case fol 1 the Courts. Application for a writ of Habeas Corpus was made, but refused by the Court, and an application will now be made io the Court of Appeal to hold a special s'tting to consider the appeal. The application for a writ of Habeas Corpus was made in order to override the deportation order.
