Department Two.
April 7, 1920.]
John Merkel, Appellant, v. D. K. McDonald et al., Defendants, D. M. Drumheller, Respondent.
Appeal from a judgment of the superior court for Spokane county, Blake, J., entered February 17, 1919, upon the verdict of a jury, rendered in favor of one defendant, in an action in tort.
Affirmed.
F. W. Girand and Fred M. Williams, for appellant.
E. C. Matthias and Graves, Kizer & Graves, for respondent.
Reported in 188 Pac. 915.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
This case presents substantially the facts presented in the case of Lumpp v. McDonald, ante p. 692, 188 Pac. 913. There was a verdict and judgment in favor of the respondent, Drumheller. The plaintiff appeals, assigning errors which, if well taken, would warrant a new trial. Both parties have, however, presented the question of the sufficiency of the facts. For the reasons stated in the case cited, we find the facts insufficient to sustain a judgment against the respondent.
The judgment will therefore stand affirmed.
