CASE INVOLVING ALIMoSY..
Court Refuses to Alter "a Former
Decree.

sCuFe RefuSe:; to Alter a Former
Decree.
DEGREES Of divorce requiring divorced
husbands to pay their former wives a
certain sum periodically, as permanent
alimony, will not be modified by the
district court, and the amount of ali
moEy reduced, unless new facts can
be shown w~arrantirg such a reduc-
ton. This principle was e~nUncia.ed. in
an order and memorandum filed by
Judge Bu1n yesterday III the divorce
case of Emma l.. Warren against Cd
Win A. Warren. The couple were di-
VoTced three years g his month, the
decree being granted by Judge Kerr to
Mrs Emma Warren. TIER daughter,
a girl OF fourteen years, preferring her
fathers society, was allowed to re-
main with him. The decree required
Mr.. Warren to pay Mrs. Warren $50
a month permanent ali:nony, to make
her the beneficiary OF his life insurance
policy OF $1,000. and to take out another
policy for $1,000, Mrs, Warren to pay
all the premiums thereafter on both
policies.
Mr.. Warren now seeks to have the
amount Of alimony reduced for the
reasons stated in Judge Bunn's mem
andum which, in part, is as folows:
In THIS case, the defendant claims q modi-
lhcat,oa Of the judgment en- the following al
A5CA N-AdbGCS ii L1S circumstances. DSDIec1a-
ton in the value of his property: his increased
living expenses, due first to the expense OF
educating his daughter, second, to his mar
rage; moneys received by the plaintiff for the
sale OF her paintings; the fact that the plain
tiff has saved money cut of her alimony paid
her; whereas, the defendant is using his entire
income, and, perhaps, mora, in supporting
himself, his child, his former and his pres
ent wife, and in raging interest on his prop
erty and taxes. Defendant fails to show that
his property has deprecated in value except
by reason of the fact that he has placed
an additional incumbll1ce thereon.
The education of his daughter must have
been contemplated at the time of the iudg-
ment, which gave defendant her custody.
Defendants marriage was a change in his
circumstances inn osed upon him by his own
voluntary act.
The affidavits fail to show that plaintiff has
earned or received or Is capable Of earning
any sum whatever from the sale Of her works
OF art.
The fact that the allowance has been large
enough to allow Plaintiff to save money and
to eIabarrass defendant is unimportant, when
unaccompanied by proof CT new facts causing
these conditions.
There is little doubt that the payment
of so large an amount of alimony is a serious
burden upon the defendant, and think thai
plaintiff could live on a less amount, as she
has done, but l find no new facts within
the rule established by the authorities TO war
rant me in revising or altering the judgment

the Great Northern Railway company, grant
ing to the latter company the exclusive con-
troll and possession of the road.
The Great Northern Railway company also
under legislative authority General Statutes
1884, section 272D granted to the Eastern
Railway company (which owned and operated
a road between Hinckley and West Superior)
tho right to run it's trains over the road be-
tween Hinckley and st. Paul. The Great
Northern Railway company, however, retain
ing possession and control of the road.
The Great Northern Railway company

main on the right of way c0mbustible ma

sparks and fire thrown from passing engines.
The Eastern Railway company negligenlIv
operated an engine attached to one of its
trains. by reason whereof sparks and fire
escaped from the engine and fell upon and
lgnited the combustible material On the right
OF way. The FIRE spread and destroyed a large
amount of property On the premises of ad-
jacent land owners.
Held. First-That the st. Paul, Minneao-
ellis & Manitoba Railway company was NOT
liable fo- the negligence of either the Great
Northern or the Eastern Railway company
that the legislative authority to lease the
TCdu included by implication exemption from
liability for the negligence of the lessee in
operating the road, and not involving a
breach of the public duties imposed upon
the lessor by its charter or the general laws
of the state.
Seeond-But the Great Northern Railway

S. C. Lobdi.l, respondent, VS.. the Laboring
Mems Mutual Aid Association of Chatfeld,
Minn.> appellant.
The defendant insured the plaintiff against
loss of time effected through external, violent
and accidental injuries, wholly and contin-
uousiy disabling him from transacting any
and every kind Of business pertaining to his
occupation of merchant"
Held. First, that the evidence justified the
jury in finding that he was wholly disabled
within the meaning Of Sc policy.
Second-Total disability does not mean absc-
ute physical inability to transact any kind Of
business pertaining to the occupation Of mer-
chant. 1t is sufficient if his injuries were such
that common care and prudence required him
to desist from transacting any such business
in order to effectuate a cure.
Third-Inabiiity to transact some kinds or
branches Of business pertaining to his occupa-
ton as merchant would not constitute total
disability within the meaning of the policy
provided he was able to transact other kinds
or branches of business pertaining TO such oc-
c%upation.
F~ourth-But ability to occasionally perform
some trivial or unimportant act connected
occupation would not render his disability par
tial instead of total, provided he was unable
to, substantially or to some material extent,
transact any kind Of business pertaining to
such occupation.
Fifth-The fact that he occasionally per-
formed some act connected with his business
as a merchant would not necessarily prove
meaning of the policy. The frequency and
nature of these acts would ordinarily be for
the consideration of the jury in determining
whether he was totally disabled as above de-
fined.
Order affirmed. Mitchell, ].

In an action on a bond, conditioned among
other things that the principal, as agent for
the plaintiff, would pay over all moneys re-
ceiyed by him as such agent monthly, the
court charged the jury in substance if the
aeen. ailed at any time to comply with the
conditions Of the bond in paying over month
ly the moneys which he had collected, and
the plaintiff had notice, actual or construct
i've, of the fact, it was its duty to revoke
the agents authority, and if it permitted him
to make further collections after such notice
the sureties on the bond would not be liable
therefor.
Held, that this did not correctly state the
measure of plaintiffs duties to the sureties
because it would apply to any default, wheth-
er the result of dishonesty or of mere negli-
gence, oversight or accident.
In the case of a continuing suretyship for
