¶1In this bill, Charles Windt is made a party defendant. He is alleged to have money in his hands which should be applied as the funds of the judgment debtors, Francis Emerson and Charles F. Foster, to the payment of these complainants’ debts and set out in this judgment creditors’ bill. Windt filed his answer, in which he states that, as deputy marshal, he levied on goods by virtue of an execution against these defendants, which were claimed by Simon P. Candee, and he sold the same under said execution; and after paying off that execution out of the proceeds of sale, there remained in his hands a surplus of $538. He also states that Candee brought suit against him for taking said goods,' which suit is still pending. And he prays that he may be permitted to retain the money until the-final determination of the suit. The complainants have moved verbálly, for an order-that Windt deposit that money in court to-await the final disposition of the suit. There is no allegation that the funds are not safe in Windt’s hands, supported by affidavit, nor is it alleged that notice of this motion was served on him. Primarily, he should be entitled to retain it, as in the event of that suit being determined against him, he would be obliged to pay back to Candee this money. Candee would in that event have the first and-paramount right to the money, with interest. If this court were to order the money deposited here, Windt would be deprived of making interest out of it during the pendency of that suit. We have no evidence of collusion between Candee and Windt in regard of that' suit, or that it is delayed for Windt’s benefit in retaining the money in his hands; nor that Windt is not responsible for it on a final -decree in this court against him.
¶2The application cannot be considered in its present shaj>e.
