Whether plaintiff could or could not, while his agency continued, maintain -an action in his oavu name on the deposit, he certainly could not after his relation to the deposit ceased by the revocation of his agency with respect to it

*323The assignment of his principals, Simon Clark & Co., worked such revocation.

Order reversed.

Book, J., absent, sick, took no part.
