Henry E. Newell for appellant.
Mark E. Conan and Willis H. Michell for respondent.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
Upon the record in this case, the trial judge was not required, if indeed he had the power, under a fair construction of the statute, to add interest to the verdict.
The question of the constitutionality of the statute is not involved or considered.
The order should be affirmed, with costs, and the question certified answered in the negative.
Cardozo, Ch. J., Pound, Crane, Lehman, Kellogg, O'Brien and Hubbs, JJ., concur.
Order affirmed, etc.
