| Schroeder Is not bound by any such SALE
| and they must find for the plaintiffs I'M
| less they shall further believe from the
1 evidence that said Schroeder subsequent

The court refused all the instructions
offered by both sides, and gave the fol-
lowing:
THE COURTS INSTRUCTIONS.
The court instructs the jury that when
a person sends cattle to market by an
efnploye with authority 20 sell the same
but with private instructions not 20 sell
the same for less than a certain sum,
the purchaser has no concern with
these private instructions and the au-
thority Of the emplOye TO sell the
cattle Is complete. And II tho Jury shall
believe from the evidence, that in this
case the empioye Heacock had such
private Instructions from Schroeder. this
fact cannot effect the title OF the defen-
dant Stein
III the agent sells for less than he
was told 10 sell for In such private In
structions he Is bound for such deficiency
10 his employer but the title OF the pur-
chaser cannot be effected thereby.
This being warrant IN detlnue
TO recover the title or possession OF these
cattle. the court insiructs the jury that
any question Of weights or proper settle
menis Of the amount due IS not the
question IN this case but must be re-
served for settlement when action may
be brought for the purchase money"
The jury found tn favor o. Stein and
there being no appeal 10 the Circuit
Court the matter became final
