for the supply of goods, &c., to the public service, such supplies are only to be delivered on requisition; and there is nothing to show any recognised departure on the part of the Government from the conditions of the contract which would have justified 
t
he plaintiffs in supplying goods on the verbal orders of public officers. Any goods so supplied would be at the risk of the person supplying. It was stated by Mr. Friend, of the Provincial Department, that the "Native Department acts as the agent of the n
a
tives in getting supplies" for them, that "when officers of the Department obtain supplies on behalf of natives they do so without requisition," that requisitions are only used by the officers of the Department when supplies are obtained on public account

 Cock's personal guarantee and apart from his character of officer of the Provincial Department, and the fact that the safe was not charged as supplied to Prov
incial Department for some two months after the sale was relied on as supporting this contention, and it was proved that on a previous occasion Mr. Caldwell had sold direct to a Fijian on the personal guarantee of a former Native Commissioner. I feel, how
ever, that I must believe Mr. Caldwell when he declares that he did }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid8402596 not sell in this way, but that h}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0

th the supposition that it was a sale direct to the Fijian. It is however a question of fact, and I believe the witness to be speaking truly.}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid8589921

 and as regards the general public, it was stated by Mr. Friend that the Department kept at the Bank of New Zealand an account entitled "Provincial Department Deposit}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid9964824

s belonging to the various native provinces, districts, towns, and individuals of the Colony. That cheques in payment of supplies obtained by the Department on behalf of the natives are drawn against the 'Provincial Depart
ment Deposit Account,' and that the Native Commissioner draws against the fund." And Mr. Stewart in his evidence said, "The Provincial Department deposits" do not form part of the public account, then do not appear in t}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24

and Liabilities." In other words, the evidence amounts to this that the Government regard the moneys standing to the credit of the "Provincial Department Deposit Account" as moneys belonging to certain unnamed "native p
rovinces, districts, towns and individuals" as principals, for whom the Provincial Department of the Colonial Government act as the general agent for obtaining supplies, which when obtained are paid for}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 
\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid9964824  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid8589921\charrsid9964824 out of such money. It was admitted that the Native Co
mmissioner and all the officers of the Provincial Department, with the exception of the accountant, are paid solely from public funds, the accountant receiving a portion of his salary from the Provincial Fund. I think that this contract for the purchase o
f
 the safe must be regarded as one made between Mr. Cocks on behalf of the Provincial Department acting as Native Agent for obtaining supplies and Mr. Caldwell acting on the part of the plaintiffs. The authority of Cocks to act on behalf of the Department 
is fully established, similar contracts having on previous occasions been made by him and recognised by the Department. I think Mr. Cocks had authority to bind the Department without requisition when the goods were being purchased, as in th}{\rtlch\fcs1 
\af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid13581533 is case, for native use, and,}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid8589921\charrsid9964824 
 I think, therefore, that the Department, as agent for the natives, is}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid9964824  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 
\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid8589921\charrsid9964824 liable to the plaintiffs for the value of the safe. If in this particular instance Mr. Cocks has acted without actual authority and in fraud of the Department, the loss must
 fall on those who by previous behaviour held out Mr. Cocks to the public as a person having authority to make contracts such as this, and not upon the plaintiffs who acted in good faith with Mr. Cocks, believing him, and reasonably so, to have authority.

w of the second question first. I think that the responsibility incurred is that of an agent for an undisclosed principal. The various native provinces, districts, towns and individuals referred to by Mr. Friend are, in my opinion, the undisclosed princip
als of the Provincial Department in its character as agent for obtaining supplies. As in the case of an ordinary agent for an undisclosed principal, the liability is a personal one: }{\rtlch\fcs1 \ab\ai\af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0

I do not think it would be possible. I am of opinion, therefore, that the Colonial Government is responsible on this contract made by Mr. Cocks of the Native Department on account 
of an undisclosed native principal, that principal being in turn responsible to the Government as agent. It is true that the goods in the present case were supplied to the Government without requisition, but it is fully established on the evidence of Mr. 
S
tewart and Mr. Friend that it is the practice of the Government when contracting as native agent through its Provincial Department for supplies to the natives to dispense with the rule as to requisitions, which the Government enforces when contracting thr
