1Opinion of the CourtMiller, J.
*5851. Evidence: carrier4 ‘ *584— I. Before the commencement of the trial below, the defendant filed a motion to strike out certain *585portions of depositions taken by tbe plaintiff. This motion was overruled, and the defendant' assigns such ruling as error. The objections to the testimony of the witnesses, rs stated in the motion, are imumteriality and irrelevancy, and it is urged in argument that as them testimony shows that they could not state the condition of all the flour when it was examined in Chicago; that as they saw only a part of it examined, their evidence should have been excluded.
