from Clatsop county; T. A. Mcbride
Judge: affirmed. opinion bp Justice
Wolverton, supreme court.
The action was brought by the rail-
road company to secure damages for
an injury to the company's trestle near
Astoria. Some barges owned by the
defendant broke loose fro mtheir moor
ings and drifted against the trestle
causing the alleged injury. The plain
tiff charged negligence in the use OF
poor ropes. The defense was that an
extraordinary storm arose, against
which the defendant could not be ex?
pected to provide. The lower court
found that defendant was negligent In
not using good ropes and in not en-
ploying a watchman. The supreme
court find no errors, and affirms the de-
cision.
