Plaintiff and appellant in this action is the Receiver of the Blue Bell Medicine Company, and the action grows out of a contract entered into between said company and one Harry Woolsey, with these respondents as guarantors for said Woolsey. By the terms of the contract, the company was to, and did, ship- to said Woolsey, to be sold at retail by him, certain stock foods and proprietary ^medicines. He agreed to sell no' other goods than those shipped .by the company, to sell said goods at retail prices fixed by the company, and to engage in no- other business or employment. By the terms of the contract, Woolsey further agreed, in payment for said goods, to remit to the company each week an amount equal to- one-half of the receipts of the business and to submit weekly reports, to the company of the 'business done. He also agreed that, upon the termination of the contract, he would settle in cash within a reasonable time for the balance -due the company on account. The -company, on its part, agreed to fill Woolsey’s reasonable orders at current wholesale prices so long as his account was in a satisfactory condition, and-to furnish him, free of charge, certain advertising matter, stationery, advice and instructions upon -the best method of selling said goods; but the contract nowhere provides for the passing of the title to said goods from the company to said Woolsey nor that ■he should be liable to the -company -beyond -one-half of the receipts - for goods sold.
No complaint is -m-ade that Woolsey did not remit the one-half of -the receipts for all goods sold by him, 'but the action is brought to recover some $2,000 for goods shipped by the company to Woolsey, but which -do not appear to- h-av-e been sold by him. Woolsey made no -defense, but the guarantors (who- are the respondents -here) answered and the case was tried to a jury; verdict and judgment were for defendants, and plaintiff appeals. Appellant assigns a hundred errors alleged -to- hav-e been committed by the. trial court, all of which are argued by him in his brief. These *238assignments have all been examined, and considered by the court, but no prejudicial error appears, and -said'ás'signments-need not be discussed in detail. ■ "
[1] It is alleged in the complaint that, within a few1 days alfteiv the signing of the contract, the'company sold arid delivered to the said Woolsey, at his special instance and request^ goods, wares and merchandise to the value of more than $2,000. This, however, was not done pursuant to any provision of the contract. The ■contract provides that the company shall ship him goods to be ■sold by him- and paid for from! the proceeds of such sale, but makes no provision for selling him any goods, nor does it make him liable for anything beyond half the proceeds of goods he had' sold, and he could not be indebted to tire company on account, under the terms of the contract, for more than that amount. There is no claim that he did not properly remit one-half the proceeds of all goods sold by 'him, and, when he did this, he had paid all that was due on his account. This is all respondents undertook that he would do, and, when this was done, their liability was at an end.
It is claimed by appellant that the contract with Woolsey was •terminated by the company pursuant to a clause therein, and that, upon such termination, both 'Woolsey and respondents became liable for the value of all goods that had been shipped to Woolsey and not yet paid1 for. The clause in question will bear no such construction. It provides only that Woolsey should settle in cash for .the balance due the company on account. But the amount due, as we have seen, was to be one-half the receipts for goods actually sold, and, this having been paid, there was m> further liability on the part of the guarantors.
The Supreme Court of Minnesota, in 'construing a contract of this same company -and similar tao the one involved, in this case, held' the contract to be in the nature of an agency contract rather than one of absolute sale: Baskerville v. Bates, 143 N. W. 909. This conclusion was concurred in by this court in Baskerville v. Culver, et aL., 146 N. W. 595, and we now re-affirm the same.
[2] This case was tried upon the theory that the contract between the company and Woolsey was a sales contract. The errors assigned are predicated upon this theory of the case; but, in view of our holding in these cases, these assignments become immater*239ial; -because, upon the -admitted facts, no different judgment co-uld result upon a new trial.
The judgment and order appealed from are affirmed.
