No. 8605.
    J. O. Halphen vs. Zuberbier & Behan.
    The appeal taken by a defendant cast in a suit apparently appeal-able, will not be dismissed for want of jurisdiction by the appellate court. . . .
    Equity demands that he should not suffer from the inference which he was authorized to draw, in that regard, from the nature of the cause of action and prayer.
    A consignor is entitled to recover from his consignee the proceeds of shipments made to him, and which were passed, without his authority, to the credit of a third person.
    Damages will not be allowed such consignor for non-payment of his drafts, where no evidence is adduced in support of such claim.
