Silver v. Chicago & Northwestern Railway Co.

Mr. Justice Dibell delivered the opinion of the court. 3. Railboads, § 932*—sufficiency of evidence to show that fire was set by sparks from locomotive. The evidence in an action against a railroad company for the destruction of property by fire caused by sparks from a locomotive, held sufficient to show that the engine in question had emitted sparks when drawing comparatively light loads, both before and after the fire.
