[MAJORITY — PER CURIAM.]
PER CURIAM.
It appears from the record and briefs in this case and the statement of counsel in open court that the sole contention of plaintiffs in error is that the verdict of the jury is manifestly against the weight of the evidence. This court has no authority to consider and determine the weight of the evidence. R. S. § 1011 (Comp. Stat. § 1672); Roth v. U. S. (C. C. A.) 294 F. 475; Bullock v. U. S. (C. C. A.) 289 F. 29, 32. Judgment affirmed.
