Appeal from Trial Term, New York County. Action by Sarah A. Draper, administratrix, against the Interborough Rapid Transit Company and another.

Affirmed as to the mentioned defendant, on condition that remittitur be made; reversed, and new trial ordered as to the other defendant.

Roger Foster, for respondent.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Judgment and order against the Rapid Transit Subway Construction Company reversed, upon the ground that the verdict is against the weight of evidence, and a new trial is ordered, with costs to the appellant to abide the event. Judgment and order against the Interborough Rapid Transit Company reversed, and a new trial ordered, unless plaintiff stipulates to reduce recovery to $15,000, in which case the judgment against the Inter-borough Rapid Transit Company, as so reduced, is affirmed, without costs on this appeal. This not being a proper case for an extra allowance, the extra allowance is stricken out.
McLAUGHLIN, J" dissents as to the Inter-borough Rapid Transit Company, on the ground that the judgment should be reversed, and a new trial ordered.
