Plaintiff for sixteen years had been in the employ of the defendant and at the times here in question was the agent in charge of the freight station, pier 44, East river, where the principal commodity handled was flour. He had been in charge of that pier from the time it was opened in 1917, until his discharge or resignation on August 5, 1922. Rumors of irregularities in the delivery of flour coming to the attention of the plaintiff’s superior, the matter was investigated, and it was found that there was an unusual shortage in bags of flour unaccounted for.
