From a judgment of nil capiat and for costs in favor of defendant, plaintiffs appeal.\nBusby, Weber & Miller, Warner H. Robinson and Arthur A. Anderson, for appellants.\nAbstract of the Decision.\n1. Sales, \u00a7 59 \u2014 when contract is severable and not entire. A contract of sale by which the vendor agrees to sell the vendee a certain number of cases of canned goods at a specified price per dozen cans, to be delivered at the vendee\u2019s factory, and under which the shipment is made in two cars, each containing a half of the goods and under separate invoice and sight draft, is not an entire but a severable contract.\n2. Sales, \u00a7 59* \u2014 what constitutes severance of entire contract of sale. If the vendee of a specific quantity of goods sold under an entire contract receives a part thereof and retains it after the vendor has refused to deliver the residue, there is a severance of the entirety of the contract, and the vendee becomes liable to the vendor for the price of such part, but may reduce the vendor\u2019s claim by showing that he has sustained damage by the vendor\u2019s breach.\n3. Sales, \u00a7 376* \u2014 what is measure of damages for breach of contrdct for sale of goods. In an action for breach of contract for the sale of goods, the measure of damages is the difference between the contract price and the price at the time of the breach.\nNo appearance for appellee.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Volg. XI to XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
