In re Cooke

CADWAD ADER, District Judge.

The question is whether one hundred and nine thousand two hundred and twenty-two dollars and thirty-seven cents, the bankrupt's share of the profits of the joint concern, is to be deducted from the claim of two hundred and fifty-five thousand four hundred and ninety-three dollars and fifty-eight cents, before proof is allowed. The question answers itself. The proof cannot be allowed for more than the difference, one hundred and forty-six thousand two hundred and seventy-one dollars and twenty-one cents.

BY

THE COURT.

The register is instructed that the court’s order of yesterday does sanction an absolute allowance of proof of the amount of one hundred and forty-six thousand two hundred and seventy-one dollars and twenty-one cents, independently of any question of equalization or adjustment that may arise upon examining the final account of every one of the several firms, of which the so-called syndicate was composed, with such syndicate, and comparing those several accounts with one another, and with the final account of the bankrupts.
