Case of A. C. Robinson vs. C. M. Horner Decided For Latter.

The appellate court has affirmed the superior court in refusing to give Alfred C. Robinson, formerly of Rensselaer, a judgment against Cornelius M. Horner on his suit for an account* ing regarding an alleged partnership, by which it was alleged they were joint parties to the purchase of land in White county in 18%. The suit was filed in 1904. It was appealed once and was reversed by the supreme court holding that the trial court terred in sustaining a demurrer to the complaint. After the reversal of the complaint it was tried in Tippecanoe county, where it had been taken on a change of venue, but the court held that the evidence did not sustain the suit. The appellate court states that there is sorfte evidence to sustain the judgment and that the evidence Ibeing partly oral, the court on appeal cannot attempt to weigh the evidence, but will affirm the judgment where it is supported by some evidence.
