This case was brought up for review, both by petition to superintend and revise and by appeal. As there are only questions of law involved, the case was decided upon the petition to superintend and revise. 219 Fed. 679, 135 C. C. A. 351.

For this reason, the appeal in this case will be dismissed, with costs, as having been improvidently taken.
