N2 - The thermal conductivity and thermopower are reported for a hole doped Eu1.5Ce0.5RuSr2Cu2O10+δ sample that has been annealed at 1100 K under an oxygen pressure of 54 atm. At Tc = 45 K superconductivity and weak ferromagnetism coexist (Tm = 180 K). Weak features in the thermopower, S(T), and thermal conductivity, κ(T), are observed both at Tm and at T* = 140 K. The thermopower begins to decrease sharply toward zero at Tc, and there is an extremely sharp increase of about 30% in the thermal conductivity at Tc. This "first order" transition may be related to the sudden appearance of a spontaneous vortex phase at Tc. A small shoulder is observed in κ(T) in the temperature range T = 5-13 K.
