1Opinion of the CourtMorton, J.
These are two actions of' tort, one against the city and the other against the Boston Elevated Railway Company, for personal injuries sustained by the plaintiff in December, 1899, while travelling on that portion of a highway called Roxbury Street in Boston occupied by the railway company’s tracks. The actions were tried and have been argued together. At the close of the evidence the judge of the Superior Court ruled that the plaintiff could not recover in either action, and directed verdicts for the defendants. The cases are here on exceptions by the plaintiff in each case to this ruling.
