Counsel

Herman M. Schaap, for appellant., William E. Weaver, for respondent.

Cohen v. New York City Railway Co.

Opinion of the Court

BISCHOFF, J.

It appears from the evidence that the plaintiff failed to use any care in .the matter of looking for approaching cars at a point where the result of his observations would have been of moment. Substantial justice is to be served by the submission of the case to another jury, and in our opinion the order setting aside the verdict involved no erroneous exercise of discretion. Order affirmed, with costs.
