Head Matter:
New York Central and Hudson River Railroad Company, Respondent, v. The City of Yonkers, Appellant. (Action No. 1.)

Opinion:
Judgment unanimously affirmed, with costs, on authority of New York, N. H. & H. R. R. Co. v. Village of Port Chester (149 App. Div. 893; affd., 210 N. Y. 600). We think upon the evidence in this case the assessment, although prima facie regular, was void for want of Jurisdiction; the plaintiff upon learning of the action taken had the right to apply to the common council to set it aside, and upon refusal to maintain this action in equity.
