1Opinion of the CourtBryan, Circuit Judge

(after stating the facts as above). The bank appeals, and insists that its equity' is superior to that of the surety. The surety appeals from the decree in favor of the Dulaney Lumber Company, which it contends should be reduced by the amount the contractor received upon sales of the empty cement sacks in question. The surety also appeals from the decree in so far as it-Was in favor of the Gulf Refining Company and the Pidgeon-Thomas Iron Company, but it is made to appear that their claims have been settled, and therefore the appeal as to them is dismissed.

The bank’s appeal will be considered…
