Opinion by
Orlady, J.,
It is apparent from the charge of the court that Jacobs v. Central Railroad of New Jersey, 19 Pa. Superior Ct. 13, was regarded as decisive of the plaintiff’s right to recover more than $150, and the affirmance of that judgment by the Supreme Court on March 28, 1904, makes that case a binding authority. Nothing can be added with profit to the opinion of Mr. Justice Brown and this judgment is affirmed for the reasons therein given.
