In Bankruptcy.
1Opinion of the Court
BROWN, District Judge.
The referee certifies the question whether costs which accrued under an attachment which was dissolved by the adjudication in bankruptcy are entitled to priority.
In the case of In re Daniels (decided by this court Sept. 13, 1901) 110 Fed. 745, it was held that priorities for costs given by the state insolvency laws were recognized by section 64b (5) of the bankruptcy act:
“Debts owing to any person who by the laws of the states or the United States Is entitled to priority. * * * ” Act July 1, 1898, c. 541, 30 Stat. 563 (U. S. Comp. St. 1901, p. 3448).
No contention is made…
