No. 77.

240 U.S. 74 (1916)

FRANK CROCKER, TRUSTEE IN BANKRUPTCY OF POSTAL SERVICE AND LOCK COMPANY v. UNITED STATES.

Supreme Court of United States.

Decided January 31, 1916.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mr. James H. Hayden, with whom Mr. Robert C. Hayden was on the brief, for appellant.

Mr. Assistant Attorney General Huston Thompson for the United States.

MR. JUSTICE VAN DEVANTER delivered the opinion of the court.

This is a claim for furnishing letter carriers' satchels under a contract with the Postmaster General. The contractor was a New Jersey corporation and its trustee in bankruptcy is the present claimant. In the Court of Claims a small part of the claim was sustained and the balance rejected. 49 Ct. Cls. 85. Only the claimant appeals, so the part sustained is not here in controversy.
