Reversed, and complaint dismissed.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
We think there was no evidence to justify the verdict of the jury that the defendant was negligent, or that it could have anticipated such an accident as occurred, and which resulted in the death of the plaintiff's intestate. The judgment is therefore reversed, with costs, and the complaint dismissed, with costs. Order filed.
