ERROR TO THE COURT OF APPEALS

OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF KENTUCKY

Syllabus

Decided on authority of Atlantic Coast Line R. Co. v. Riverside Mills, ante, p. 219 U. S. 186.

The facts are stated in the opinion.

MR. JUSTICE LURTON delivered the opinion of the Court.

This case was heard with No. 215, Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Co. v. Riverside Mills, just decided. Like that case, it presents only the question of the constitutionality of the Carmack Amendment of the Act to Regulate Commerce.

The facts are not substantially different, and the judgment of the court of Appeals of the State of Kentucky is affirmed upon the authority of that case.

Affirmed.
