Opinion

PER CURIAM.

A majority of the judges find no reversible error in the rulings on the pleadings and in regard to the admission of evidence. The plea of contributory negligence on the part of the plaintiff was properly submitted to the jury, and we find no error in the instructions of the court. [988]*988Whether the damages allowed by the jury were excessive is beyond our province. Erie Railroad Co. v. Winter, 143 U. S. 60-75, 12 Sup. Ct. 356, 36 L. Ed. 71. Judgment affirmed.
