(November 27, 1939.)
    Louisa Cavaccini, as Administratrix, etc., of Paul Cavaccini, Deceased, Appellant, v. Farm Products Corporation and Richard Glaser Hupfel, Respondents.
   Action to recover damages for the death of plaintiff’s intestate as the result of the collision of decedent’s sedan and the corporate defendant’s truck. Plaintiff appeals from a judgment in favor of the defendant, entered upon the verdict of a jury, and from an order denying plaintiff’s motion to set aside the verdict and for a new trial. Judgment and order affirmed, with costs. No opinion. Hagarty, Carswell and Adel, JJ., concur; Lazansky, P. J., and Close, J., dissent and vote to reverse the judgment and order and grant a new trial on the ground that the trial court committed substantial error in its rulings at folios 339-340 and 390-391 of the record. In effect the court, in making these rulings, permitted the defendants’ witness to pass judgment on the two most important issues in the case.
