Head Matter:
Catherine A. Pope, Respondent, v. John A. Wilbur et al., Appellants.
Appeal from an order of the General Term of the City Court of the city of Hew York, and from a judgment entered thereon, affirming a judgment in favor of the plaintiff, entered upon -the verdict of a jury and affirming an order denying defendants’ motion for a new trial.
Dudley R. Horton, for appellants.
Benjamin E. Edsall (Isaac L. Miller, of counsel), for respondent.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
The defendants claimed, and were accorded the affirmative. It then became incumbent upon them to show that the premises became untenantable, and this, according to the verdict, they failed to do.
There was no error in the charge. The jury were left to say whether the damages rendered the building untenantable, and were instructed properly in regard to the defendants' nonliability in case of untenantability. There is no merit in any of the exceptions.
Present: Truax, P. J., Scott and Dugro, JJ.
Judgment affirmed, with costs.
