STATE EX REL. MINNEAPOLIS, NORTHFIELD & SOUTHERN RAILWAY v. DISTRICT COURT OF SCOTT COUNTY AND ANOTHER.
    
    March 13, 1931.
    No. 28,527.
    
      Grant L. Martin, for petitioner (relator).
    
      Davis, Michael, Yaeger & McGinley and John P. Devaney, for respondents.
    
      
       Reported in 235 N. W. 629.
    
   Per Curiam.

Relator resorts to mandamus for the purpose of reviewing an order of the court below in refusing to change the venue on the ground of convenience of witnesses and that such removal will promote the ends of justice. The record jiresented to us discloses the presence of an issue of fact. The court might have decided either way. There was no abuse of discretion. Under such circumstance the decision of the lower court is final. Coates v. Holden, 181 Minn. 517, 233 N. W. 9.

The order to show cause why a peremptory writ of mandamus should not issue as prayed for in the petition is discharged.
