New York Court of Appeals

1Opinion of the CourtCrane, J.
This case was here before on the pleadings (239 N. Y. 158). It is here now on the facts after a trial before a referee. The objections to the recovery by the plaintiff are payment and the lack of a proper demand.
Boris N. Sokoloff, a Russian subject, was in the United States from 1914 to 1917, when he returned to Russia. On June 27, 1917, he gave to the National City Bank of New York, at its main office in New York city, $30,225 and $883.50 with which to open an account for him in its Russian branch in Petrograd. The receipt given by the bank explains the transaction.
“ New York, June 27, 1917.
