Syllabus

<p>Negligence — Railroads—Fences—Trespassers.</p> <p>It is not the duty of a railroad company which owns real estate abutting on a street or highway, to construct or maintain a fence sufficiently strong and adequately safe, to provide against a contingency arising by reason of a crowd of trespassers coming upon the property inclosed, and pushing the fence over on a person walking on the street; and this is the case although some of the trespassers were employees of the railroad company.</p> <p>Brown, Mestrezat and Potter, JJ., dissent.</p>
