In the notice of lien it was stated that
the contract was that the corporation

reasonably worth, and that the sub
contractor was to deliver to the plain
tiffs Immediately upon the acceptance
of the building an order for the amount
due to the plaintiffs by said contractor,

bought the goods at a fixed price and

California Powder Works, appellant;

respondent Action for recovery Of

stroyed while in transit on defendant s
railroad. Affirmed.
Where a party undertakes contract
to act as the agent of another, not mere
ly to haul certain goods as common
drayman, but to ship them for the other
party to it's destination, the circum-
stances that the agent Of the other
party knew him to be such does not mil
itate against the force Of his claim un-
der the contract.
An agent who is employed by the own
er or consignor Of goods to procure them
to be transported by a common carrier
has a general and implied authority to
make an agreement with the carrier as
to the terms upon which the goods are
to be transported.
A common carrier is not bound to re-
ceive goods which are SO defectively
packed that their condition will entail
upon the company extra care and extra
risk; nor dangerous articles, such as
nitro -glycerine, dynamite, gunpOwder,
aquefortis, oil of vitriol, matches, etc.
1t is, therefore, optional with the car
rier to accept such material for trans
portation or not; but if it chooses to ac
cept it, 1t can accept 1t upon such terms
and with such limitation of its common
law liabilities as it may see fit.

M. S. Jeffers ct al, appellants; Easton,
Eldridge & Co. ct al, respondents. Ac-
ton to recover moneys upon assignment
of leasehold interest. Affirmed.
The rules which govern conveyances
of real property do not apply to assign
ments of estates for years. A term for
years is only personal property chat
tel real. Therefore, upon sale of such,
while as to the quality of the thing sold
caveat emptor is the general rule, the
seller implicitly warrants the title.
The total breach of a warranty Of title
either express, as in the sale of real es-
tate, or implied as in the case of a sale
Of chattels, makes good cause of ac-
ton for the purchaser to recover the
purchase money if he had paid it, and a
good defense against an action by the
seller to recover such purchase money.
One who has received possession of
property, either on sale or on any
other kind of contract, from a person
who has no title to It, may yield it to the
true owner, on his demand, without
waiting for the latter to take 1t forci-
bly, or by legal proceeding, although, if
he do SO, he takes upon himself the bur-
den Of proving that he to whom he
yields possession had the paramount
title.

those cases where a non-suit is granted
for a failure to introduce evidence suffi-
cient to go to the jury upon some point
essential to the plaintiffs case.
