“[a]ny evidence that assists in getting at the truth of the issue . . . even though it is only a link in the chain of facts which must be proved to make the proposition at issue appear more or less probable.”
7 later decisions quote this exact passage““Thus it becomes evident that a verdict is upset only when, in the discretion of the court, the court believes that in view of the proceedings as a whole, substantial rights of the complaining party have been affected. It is our belief that the substantial rights of the plaintiff in error were not affected and that no reasonable jury could have fairly come to any other decision. “For sec. 274.37, Stats., to intervene and save the verdict, there should be an overwhelming quantity of other evidence in the case. Bartz v. State (1938), 229 Wis. 522 , 282 N. W. 562 .””
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““[Ujnless a newspaper article is so prejudicial as to influence the verdict of the jury, it is solely within the judge’s discretion as to whether a mistrial is in order.””
