(Supreme Court, General, Term, First Department.
June 14, 1895.)

Headnote

Action by Bern-hard Metz against the American Credit Indemnity Company.
W. F. Upson, for the motion.
John V. Bouvier, Jr., opposed.

Under the contract by which Abraham was employed by the defendant, he had no authority to bind the defendant to pay commissions to the plaintiff; and, besides, there is no evidence that Abraham assumed to bind the defendant. The motion for new trial should be denied, and judgment, ordered dismissing the complaint, with costs.
