yolving Damage 20 Trees.
In am opinion handed down by the
supreme court yesterday, it is held
that "a public contractor is liable for
damas es done To- the property OF abut-
. ting property owners during the prog
ress of public Improvements. The case
iu point was that OF Thomas Morris
respondent, against salt Lake city, APP
pellaut and S. Birch, contractor, re-
spOndeut The verdict in the a. al
court awarded Morris damages I'm Che
sum of $3.50 from the city, but hold
ing the contractor not liable because
the work done was under specifications
prepared by the city and inspected by
The corporations inspectors.
The evidence showed that while paw
ing was being done in front of his
premises in this city, the roots Of eight
Canadian poplars were expo ed,
leaving them with little support,
and that during wind storm
they fell across his fence and
house badly damaging both. The city
disclaimed liability because Birch was
am individual contractor Birch dis
claimed liability on the ground that he
was working under specifications pre-
pared by the city, and that the work
ass it progressed was reported upon 10y
the corporation inspectors.
The opinion holds that the contractor
and the city should nave been held
jointly liable for the reason. as shown,
that the injury inflicted was need 81;
that the trees were left without sup
port, and that for this reason We're
menace ana danger to the public.
