In a suit brought in a state court of Texas against public contractors and a municipality for damages alleged to have been caused by a street obstruction, the city, by a cross-action, vouched in a surety company, which removed the cause to the federal district court.

1. The order dismissing the cross-action, if not reversed or set aside, was conclusive against the city and was appealable. P. 293 U. S. 143.

2. While reversal cannot affect the order of remand, it will at least remit the entire controversy to the state court. P. 293 U. S. 143.
