Where plaintiff alleged a contract for commissions and sales made thereunder, and defendant denied the contract, but admitted some of the sales and that he was indebted to plaintiff in a reasonable sum for commissions thereon, an instruction that, if the jury did not find that there was a contract, then they should award plaintiff reasonable commissions, was proper, such issue being raised by defendant. Wheeler v. Buck, 23 Wash. 679, 63 P. 566.
