Opinion

SANBORN, Circuit Judge.

John P. Crawford has presented his petition to revise in matter of law, under section 24b of the bankruptcy act (Act July 1, 1898, c. 541, 30 Stat. 553 [3 U. S. Comp. St. 1901, p. 3432]), an order of the United States Court for the Southern District of the Indian Territory, sitting as a cou,rt of bankruptcy, to the effect that he pay over to R. C. Fleming, the trustee of the estate of one Gibson, a bankrupt, $1,300, and that his exceptions to the report and order of the referee to the same effect be overruled.

The Indian Territory has never been assigned to this circuit, as have the territories of New Mexico and Oklahoma, under section 15 of the act to establish the Circuit Courts of Appeals (Act March 3, 1891, c. 517, 26 Stat. 830 [1 U. S. Comp. St. 1901, p. 554]; 139 U. S. 707, 11 Sup. Ct. iv); and for that reason, as was decided in Re Blair, 106 Fed. 662, 664, 45 C. C. A. 530, 532, upon a review of the acts of Congress, the Court of Appeals of this circuit is without jurisdiction to entertain petitions to revise, in matters of law, the orders of the courts of original jurisdiction of the Indian Territory sitting in bankruptcy.

The petition is therefore dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
