[993] Despite the court's contention that Moore _v._ Dempsey was
disposed of in conformity with the principles enunciated in Frank _v._
Mangum, the two decisions are distinguishable not only by the different
results reached therein, but by the fact that the State appellate court
in Frank _v._ Mangum had ruled that the trial court had correctly
concluded, on the basis of the evidence submitted, that the allegations
of mob violence were unsubstantiated whereas the Arkansas appellate
court, in Moore _v._ Dempsey, conceded a similar allegation to be
correct but did not deem it sufficient to render the trial a nullity.
Although in the later case, Arkansas demurred and thereby admitted the
allegations supporting the _habeas corpus_ petition to be true, that
fact is a lesser significance, for even in Frank _v._ Mangum, the
Supreme Court abided by the rule that the writ of _habeas corpus_
relates to matters of substance and not of mere form, and declared that
the petitioner's allegations should be treated as if conceded by the
sheriff having custody of the petitioner.--237 U.S. 309, 332, 346
