Head Matter:
GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY v. S. STEWART.
July 17, 1896.
Nos. 9865—(143).
Action in the district court for Stevens county. Tbe case was tried before C. L. Brown, J., who found in favor of defendant. From an order denying a motion for a new trial, plaintiff appealed.
Affirmed.
M. D. Groverr and Gyrus Wellington, for appellant.
Clapp da Macartney, for respondent.
Reported in 68 N. W. 1102.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
The four members of the court who heard the argument of this case are equally divided in opinion on the question whether the order appealed from should be reversed or affirmed. As the action is one for the recovery of real property, and the appellant may secure a second trial by complying with the statute, we deem it inexpedient to order a reargument, or to state our personal opinion upon the questions presented by the record. The result is that the order of the district court denying appellant's motion for a new trial must be affirmed.
So ordered.
Mitchell, J., absent, took no part.
G. S. 1894, § 5845.
