His Lordship gavu judgment in this case, The plaintiff sued the defendant company on account of personal injuries and damnge to clothes caused by allegel negligence on the part of employees of the defendant company. A collision had occurred near the Kowloon Ferry landing, ou the 6th ult., between a ricksha in which the plaintiff was riding and one of the company's cargo tracks.
Mr. B. J. Grist of Mesars. Wilkinson and drist), appeared for plaintiff, Mr. H. W. Looker (of Messrs. Denson, Looker and Deacon), for the defendants.
His Lordship said:
Under it a passenger who had selected the particular conveyance by which he travelled was so far identified with the driver that, if any injury was sustained by him from collision with another vehicle through the joint negligence of his own driver and that of the other vehicle. precluding the former from maintaining an notion against the latter, the passenger was himself equally precinded. (Addison Torts Ed. p. 27). This doctrine was declared not to be the law in 1888 by the House of Lords. The law in this respect now is that a plaintiff is not preoladed from speceeding in an action for negligence by reason only of the contributory negligence of a third party who is aut either his servant or his agent. The question then is, was the puller of the rickalm the servant or agent of the plaintiff !

Two Chinamen were charged with hone breaking. It appears that they watched a lady locking up, and leaving her house at No. 136, Kerter Street. As soon as she was out of sight} they approached the premises and lifted the door off its hinges. They entered and replaced the door, and were carrying away a bundle of goods by the back entrance, when they learnedt that they were required at the police station. On appearing before the Court each man was sentenced to six months and six hours' stocks. The first defondant, for giving the wrong address to spawnbroker when pawning goods, was sentenced to imprisonment for the further term of six weeks, and in lieu of one day of the said imprisonment, he must do six move hoars in the stroke.
