Supreme Court of the United States December 14, 1891, 632, 639 (New Orleans v. New Orleans Water Works Co.)

Me. Justice Beown,

after stating the case, delivered the opinion of the court.

In order to sustain the jurisdiction of this court upon the ground that a Federal question is presented, it should appear either that such question was apparent in the record, and that a decision was made thereon, or that, from the facts stated, such question must have arisen, and been necessarily involved in the case.
