KEANE et al., Respondents, v. ENGEL et al., Appellants.
(Supreme Court, Appellate Term.
October 5, 1898.)

Headnote

Action by James R. Keane and another against Gustav Engel and another.
Thomas Gilleran, for respondents.
M. Bayersdorfer, for appellants.

The judgment as to the defendant Johanna Engel should be affirmed, but it must be reversed as to the defendant Gustav Engel, as the evidence is not sufficient to justify the conclusion that he co-operated with his co-defendant in the conversion for which the action was brought. Judgment affirmed, with costs as to the defendant Johanna Engel, and reversed as to the defendant Gustav Engel, and a new trial ordered, with costs to appellant to abide the event.
