GETS S724.20 AT
 HANDS OF JURY
Max Udell & Sons Recover From Charles Seder For
 Breach of Contract
Defendant Admitted Not Sending
 Cloth on Contract

After being out less than half an hour q jury in the superior court sit- ting in Putnam. awarded damages of Si24.20 to the plaintiff in the case of Max Udell < Sons of New York vs. Charles Seder of Putnam. The verdict as brought in by the jury carries i'm. terest from the first of April 1922, amounting Ga approximately SIS.
 The case grew out of the failure of the defendant to deliver to the plain. tiff forty pieces Of pencil striped wors- ted goods on a contract for seventy- five pieces. The allegation, which was admitted by the defendant. was that the yardage was 2o40 yards and the contract price was S2.02 a yard. It was also admitted by the defendant that he had failed to deliver the forty pieces of cloth under his contract.
 Market Price Disputed
 The defense to the claim for Sl.500 damages claimed by plaintiff was that the damage was only nominal as the plaintiff could have gone into the open market and bought the same goods at the contract price.
 
 of the plaintiff company, doing busi- ness in New York City, was the first witness. He testified that his concern manufactured mems clothing and did a business of S2.000,000 a year. He said that during period from Fehru- ary, 1922, to April 1923 the price of the goods which he bought from Seder increased in value to S275 a yard. As that price was prohihitive for the class of goods he made he was forced to buy a cheaper grade of cloth for man ufacturing purposes.
 MT Udell's testimony was eorrobor- ated by Martin C. Duhmin. New York commission man, who stated that he styled fifteen worsted and woolen mills and sold to the trade.
 Mill Men Testify
 The defendant put on Charles 4. Robinson. worsted and woolen manu- facturer of Providence, with mills in Pascoag: Charles Bragg, manufac- turer of Central Village; William Easton. formerly with the French Riv- CT Textile Company. Meehanicsville, and Edwin l. Cohen. a clothing manu- facturer in Boston.
