Appeal from Civil District Court, Parish of Orleans; E. K. Skinner, Judge. Proceedings in the matter of the liquidation of the J. D. Connell Iron Works Company, in which Otto J.

1Opinion

On Application of Otto J. Mayer for a Rehearing.

2Per curiam

The distinction between the instant case and that of Barry Bros. v. American White Lead & Color Works, 107 La. 236, 31 South. 733, is that the sale was preceded by separate appraisement in that case and not in the instant case.

The rehearing is refused.
