107 U.S. 454 (____)

WABASH RAILWAY COMPANY v. McDANIELS.

Supreme Court of United States.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

The case was argued by Mr. Wager Swayne for the plaintiff in error, and by Mr. E.E. McKay for the defendant in error.


MR. JUSTICE HARLAN, after stating the facts, delivered the opinion of the court.

That we are without authority to disturb the judgment upon the ground that the damages are excessive cannot be doubted. Whether the order overruling the motion for a new trial based upon that ground was erroneous or not, our power is restricted to the determination of questions of law arising upon the record. Railroad Company v. Fraloff, 100 U.S. 24.
