After the removal of a cause from the state court to the Federal court, the latter becomes completely possessed of the action and has plenary power over the guardian ad litem of the plaintiff; and thereafter certiorari to review an earlier order of the state court in substituting a new guardian ad litem does not lie; the remedy, if any, being' by application to the Federal court.</p>
