C. A. 150. The case is here again on a writ of error from a judgment on the second trial in favor of the plaintiff.
The vital question on which all others turn is whether the testimony, viewed most favorably to plaintiff, tended to prove an unlawful combination or unlawful discrimination against the plaintiff, to which defendant wras a party.
