The poods reached their l(stliiatlt)ii tho nct day, but Instead of dplheilnp thpin to tlie consignee the onipanj put them In Its oillr-c and mulled a postal caul to ReddlnRton to the pflcct that they were there For Pome leasnn lie did not call for tliein and onp nlglit liuiRlnrs Inoko into the express nfllc( and stole the cigars. Kll jiatilck hi ought HUlt to recover the alup of the cigars and the case was lpfened to John M. Hnirls as leferee, who found for defendant company, on the ground that the delivery to the cainer vested title In the consignee and that after the arrival of the goods at their destination and the attempted delivery of them, the company was only liable as were housemen. 'These are undoubted principles of law," sas Judge Archbald In his opin ion, "but they have no application hcie. The company was bound to Ue Uor the goods promptly to the party to whom they were sent or attempt to do so, and'lf he refused to take them, to at once notify the party who pent them. To simply send out a postal caid and await lesults fell far shoit of what was required. In ho doing the company viitu.illv held the goods nt Its onn lisle and became liable for the loss by theft which followed. "A notice to the consignee to come nnd get the consignment does not meet the duty of dellierj, ns we have al leady shown This may be .stillleient In case of fi eight can led by a l.ill iond cumpanv wheie there is no obli gation to make n deliery other than at the fi eight ofllce or station.
