Suit Against the Bleccker Strect and Ful- ton Ferry Line—The Plaintiff Non- Suited—the Law as to Negligence—Im- portant Opinion of Judge Bockes, SUPREME COURT, OIRUVIT—PART'T. Before Judge Bockes. Arru, 13.—Michae! Kidney vs. the Bleecker Street and Futon Ferry Railroad Company.—The plaintiff in this action, while crossing at the corner of Water and Beek- man streets on the 27th of September, 1865, about twelve o’clock in the day, was knocked down by one of the cars of the defendants, receiving serious injuries in the back. Thecar at the time was travelling at the tate of between four and five milesan hour. After the evi- dence in the case ex-Recorder Smith, counsel for the company, moved to dismiss the complaint, on the ground that negligence on the part of plaintiff was conclumvely proved, This motion was contested by Mr. Perth, who appeared for the plaintiff, Judge Bockes reserved his decision as to the non-suit, and this morning at the opening of court he delivered the following opinion, dismissing the complaint :— A motion for non-suit was made at the close of the proof on the part of the plaintiff. I was them under the strong impression that the plaintif had failed to estab- lish his cause of action, but concluded it best to hear the whole case, grapting permission to the defendants to renew the motion after the evidence was ali in, The motion for non-suit is now renewed. It is the undoubted duty of the Court to grant the motion, in cas. it now plainly ae see for the plaintiff! would be unsupported by, or against, the clear weight of evidence, The tacts ry this case are few, avd, in the main, undis- The plainti® in n croaeing tho street, ee tiffs tine of rond, was struck by horses, or one of them, attached toa car, was knocked down and.quite Perera injured. He was crossing at or near the intersection of two streets, where there was a down grade, and was struck aout eighteen or twenty fect from the lower crosswalk. He says he was going directly Street at this point; but the strength of the evidence is that he was passing’ little diagon This tritiing diserepaucy is, however, of uo substantial import- ance, He says he looked both ways, but saw no car. At this point an w approaching car could be seen for the dis- tance of two blocks. The accident occurred at midday. At the time there were numerous aud vehicles passing, but there is no proof that they in fact prevented the piaintiff from seeing the approach of the car.

They were en- gaged ina lawful employment, and it was conducted by the ordinary ins and im the usoal way. For aught nably anticipated, or which on the emer- ency could be put im practice, was exercised and The lookoit gave the proper warni not the defendant's fault if it was not hea | the brakes wore {mmediatety applied, and ote weed order.

The most that ‘an be claimed as a ground of negligence is that the the car wae being run at too greata rate of speed throngh « great thoronghiare of the city. How stands the case on this point? The proof is that the horses were on a slow trot, moving & about four anda half miles per hour. This war not high speed. There ® no proof that it was ‘unnsual spel even for great thoroughfares ia the city. Nor is there any thing toshow that this rate of speed was at that particulnr locality or on thet occasion im- proper or dangerous There is no proof that the way or track was then obstructed by a crowd of vehicles or pe- destriane, Fer aught chat appears the plainti was the only peron in the immediate vicinity of the accident at the time. He was beyond the second crosswalk, in no crowd, with the street free and open, at this point, to | houmself and the car; at least there is no evidence to the | contrary. Certainly there is no evidence that the progress: f the car was obetructed or that its speed should then bave been reduced below the rate at which it had been accustomed to move with entire ateay. On the whole e 1am unable to fasten on any act, or on the otis. of any act, on the part of the the defendants or thetr | agents on Which negligence in law can be fairly of jnstiy predicated. Secondly, did the plaintiff's negligence con- tribute to the Injory? I Propose to elaborate his branch of the cave at a Stil I cannot refrain from expressing a very clear conviction that his own in- | attention and carelessness contributed to the injury, if in fact the sole canse of bis misfortune. If it be as testified to, that instead of stopping when ‘ar to pass, he attempted to croas ahead ree, his own erse act, not to Dewi aw the direct and immediate cause of ncci- Hut, in any wew, it seems to me he was eos of danger.
