COLORADO DECISIONS.
Important cass. Decided by Colorado
Supreme Court,


Denver.--A list of sixty.sour opIn-
lois was handed down by the Supreme
Court Monday.
In denying a re-hearing of the case
involving the eight-hour law, the
court again affirmed its decision affirm
ing the validity OF that legislative act.
The decision of the lower court up
holding the right OF the city Of Denver
to restrict the sale OF liquor In restau-
rants. under the present ordinance,
was upheld.
A reversal of Judgment was ordered
in the case of Oliver Adcock against
the Santa Fe Railway Company. In
the County Court OF Otero county Ad-
cock was given "A Judgment for some
cattle killed on the tracks of the rail-
road.
A number of people saw the cattle
after they were killed. but none saw
them killed. but the circumstances in
dicated that they were killed by a
passing train. The hides were after
wards discovered in possession of a
section foreman.
The opinion, which was written by
Justice Bailey. reverses the decision
Of the lower court on the ground that
there were errors in the judges in
structions. The court instructed the
jury. "If you find from the evidence
that the defendant negligently ran Its
engine against the cattle and by rea-
son OF the wounds received thereby
they died, the defendant was liable"
But the court left out the important IN
struction that "the mere killing OF the
animals by the train or finding them
dead beside its railroad does not al 1t
self show negligence sufficient to en-
title the plaintiff to recover"
Justice Bailey finds room for consit.

equines. in the case OF John ID. Utzler
against Mrs. Harriet A. Myers and the
city of Denver. In the court below utz'
Ter was given u Judgment OF $ooo'
which Is now reversed.
Etzler was n coal hauler. and after
he had unloaded some coal his horse
ran away and bumped into the step,

the stepping stone was well within the
proper limits and that utzler had made
no effort TO tie his horse.

says the opinion. Further along the
opinion says: Ordinary foresight and
prudence should have suggested TO the
plaintiff that his horse was liable to
