Lower Court Affirmed.

The Court Of Appeals, in an opinion writ
ten by Mr. Chief Justice Alvey has af-
firrned the Judgment of the lower court in
the case of Bolton d. Stewart against the
Washington and Great Falls Electric Rail
way Company.
The action was instituted by the appellant
to recover damages for injuries received,
alleged to have been caused by the negli-
gence Of the appellee. The appellant was
struck and run over by a moving car on the
road tracks of the appellee and thereby Sc
verely injured while he was walking on the
railroad tracks. Upon the evidence pro-
duced at the trial the case was taken from
the jury by the instruction of the court,
upon the ground that the evidence was
legally insufficient to warrant verdict for
the plaintiff. The latter excepted and took
an appeal to the Court of Appeals.

Nathan Gof, jr. and James M. Ewing,
appellants, against the United States of
America, and the United States of Amer
lea, appellant, against Ewing and Goff,

verdict for the foregoing, but upon the
verdict the court below rendered judg-
ment in favor Of the United States, not
precisely in accordance with the verdict,
but for the sum of $4,000 which was the
which the suit was instituted. From the
judgment both parties appealed, the
United States on account of the remis-
sion of the interest. which would make
the recovery more than the penalty of
the bond, and the defendants for alleged
errors in the rulings of the trial court at
