Head Matter:
Emelia Eckstrom, Respondent, v. The Yellow Taxicab Company, Appellant.
Appeal from a judgment, entered on a verdict, and also from an order denying a motion for a new trial.

Opinion:
Per Curiam:
We are of opinion that the testimony of the plaintiff herself shows that she was chargeable with contributory negligence as matter of law. The judgment and order appealed from are, therefore, reversed, with costs, and the complaint dismissed, with costs. Present — Clarke, P. J., McLaughlin, Laughlin, Dowling and Page, JJ.
