Action by the Globe & Rutgers Fire Insurance Company against the Robbins & Myers Company. From a Municipal Court judgment in favor of defendant, plaintiff appeals. Affirmed.
See 86 N. Y. Supp. 493.'
Argued before FREEDMAN, P. J., and MacLEAN and SCOTT, JJ.
Philip Lindsley, for appellant.
Henry Melville, for respondent.

Opinion:
SCOTT, J.
Upon a former appeal to this court a judgment in favor of the plaintiff was reversed. No fact of importance was proven upon the second trial that was not before this court on the former appeal. The decision of this court on that appeal, in my opinion, constitutes the law of the case, so far as this court is concerned, and should control our action.
The judgment should be affirmed, with costs.
FREEDMAN, P. J., concurs.
