Josiah Rich vs. The United States Life Insurance
Company.-The plaintiff in this case was formerly
member OF the Board OF Trustees OF the corpora
ton delendants, holding the once for about three
years, and at present holding policy or insur.
ance In it, He was some time ago elected
out OF ONCE. but still claims to have q
deep interest In the welfare of the COM
pany. The corporation had from its forma-
tion as Its principal agent one J. b. Gates. The
contract had with this party was considered Q
very onerous and expensive one, and the corpora
tion ardently desired Its cancellation and after
weighing ali the consequences it summary
discharged Gates. The latter threatened legal
paid him over 100000, which he claimed as
compensation for the loss OF his COMMISSIONS
The plaintiff in tnis action. personal iriend OF
Gates undertook to negotiate settlement or the
difncuity. This he eventually succeeded in doing
the company paying Gates 100000 and the latter
ing him 81, $50 tor hts services as mediator and
agent In the matter. Rich now claims that he
also acted as the agent OF the deiendanis that his
agency was accepted by them, and that they are
indebted TO MIN In the sum OF 81 900, which the
action IL brought to recover. The defendants
deny that he acted as their agent, and tnat, In
fact, the only recognition they extended TO him in

claim was the plaintiff himself. while the President
and several officers OF the company positively
swore that there was no understanding, expressed
or IMPLIED that they accepted the services OF the
/ plantin In the negotiation as an agent; but, on
the contrary, mat ne was recognized by them as
/ the friend OF Gates and lnimical 10 them. Judge
McAdam, Ia giving the case to the jury, explained
i very clearly The law relating TO the employment OF
an IVr1o aUpao niAVs fvSOh an

/ Ii must be shown that both parties accepted the
agency before an agent can recover rom both.
Ii was for the Jury to say whether the plaintiff rs
