   PER CURIAM.

At the close of the case it was stipulated upon the. record that briefs were to be submitted by January 15, 1906, “and the court’s time for decision to begin to run from that date.” The judg-’ ment should therefore have been rendered on or before January 29, 1906. It was not rendered until January 31, 1906. The court therefore lost jurisdiction of the cause, and the judgment must be reversed. Moscowitz v. N. Y. City Ry. Co. (Sup.) 9.1 N. Y. Supp. 352; A. M. Eisenberg Co. v. Janzlik (Sup.) 92 N. Y. Supp. 247.
