PER CURIAM:

     Galen Hyman appeals from the district court's order denying

relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (1988) petition challenging the suf-

ficiency of the evidence to convict him of conspiracy and alleging

ineffective assistance of counsel. We have reviewed the record and

the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the
magistrate judge and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we af-

firm the dismissal of those claims on the reasoning of the district

court. Hyman v. Beshears, No. CA-94-3113-AMD (D. Md. Oct. 31,
1995). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.




                                                           AFFIRMED
