Rights of Pedestrafus,

From the Chicago Chronicle.
New York appellate court has given a
decision likely to become authoritative con-
corning the rights of pedestrians and the
pretensions of traction companies to own
the streets.
Affirming verdict arising from killing a
boy who, IT is claimed could have got out
of the way of a car and did not the deoi-
sion runs: THE right of a railroad COM
pany to use the public streets is condi-
toned upon the right of the public to also
use them in the ordinary way, and no rail-
road company has the right so to block
the streets that the public are excluded
from crossing them except at the risk OF
being run over 1t cannot be contributory
negligence for a person to start to cross a
track when the car is at such a distance
that the motorman can prevent its run
ming him down If attending to his business
and operating the car in careful and pru-
dent manner"
The traction companies assume in Chi
cago that the people have no rights they
are bound to respect either as TO fare or
as to wayfaring. The courts are gradu-
ally reading the law to them in a way to
inspire contrary conviction.

running to the various ticket agencies to
buy orchestra chairs or a box, at no mat

returned, having found nothing. Then the
American mllionaire's private secretary
