1Opinion of the Court

LAOOMBE, Circuit Judge.

It seems unnecessary to add anything was said in disposing of similar motions in Union Associated Press v. Times Printing Co., 83 Fed. 822, as the facts, except in one particular, are substantially the same. It appears, however, that there are debts due to defendant from solvent debtors residing in this state. This may fairly he held to be “property within this state,” within the meaning of section 432 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The motion is therefore denied.
