Head Matter:
Philipp Brothers, Respondent, v. Bradley Express, Inc. et al., Respondents, and St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company, Appellant. B. N. R. Agency, Inc., Third-Party Plaintiff-Respondent, v. St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company, Third-Party Defendant-Appellant.
Submitted February 19, 1974;
decided May 8, 1974.
Simon Greenhill and Jerome G. Greenspan for appellant.
Joseph Kasoy for B. N. R. Agency, Inc., respondent.
John L. Conners and Francis A. Montbach for plaintiff-respondent.

Opinion:
Memorandum. The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed, with costs.
The critical issue on this appeal, whether B. N. R. Agency, Inc. was acting as carrier, raises a question of fact which can not be resolved on a motion for summary judgment. That B. N. R. Agency, Inc. acted as " carrier " for Bradley Express, Inc. in carrying goods for the plaintiff and was not itself a licensed interstate carrier, makes it no less a carrier.
