No questions of law were determined. The only comment of the court which might be of importance is the following: \u201cThe evidence in the record affords abundant basis, in onr opinion, for the inference that Gardner was authorized by appellant to issue bills of lading for shipments of property from Frankfort over appellant\u2019s railroad. Appellant adopted and acted upon his acts, and this constitutes sufficient proof of his agency.\u201d\nTrover. Appeal from the Circuit Court of Cook county; the Hon. Richard W. Clifford, Judge, presiding.\nHeard in the Branch Appellate Court at the October term, 1907.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed October 6, 1908.\nSamuel A. Lynde and Stuart G. Shepard, for appellant.\nBarnard J. Baumer, for appellee."
