His trunk was in the baggage car containing A VALUABLE SET OF SAMPLES, estimated to be worth from 20,000 to $25,000, and he occupied a birth in one of the sleeping cars unaware of the danger of his valuables until too late to look after them.

Chief Justice Cartter holding the Cireuit Court made an order quashing said writ of attachment, from which onter the . plaintiffs a) led to this court. The an- swer of the Commissioners discloses the facts that the sum of $34,745.69 had been allowed defendant by board of andit, for work done on the public streets of the District of Colum- bia, undera contract made by him with said Commissioners. That a certificate of indebt- ness, for $30,000, had been issued todefendant, leaving due him $4,745.69, for whieh no cer- tificate had been issued. That thissum is dne to defendant from said District, as an ascer- tained balance for work done under a con- tract completed and finished. The question | Involved in this case, as presented by the record, is simply whether, on these facis,the sum thus due is liable to attachment in the hands of thegarnishees.
