*390Abstract of the Decision.
1. Negligence, § 186 * —when ownership question of fact. The ownership of a wagon operated by an employee of the defendant in an action for damages for negligence is a question of fact.
2. Automobiles and garages, § 2*—when question of negligence and contributory negligence for jury. In an action for damages for injury to an automobile in a collision claimed to have been caused by defendant’s turning sharply across the path of plaintiff’s automobile, necessitating a similar turn by the latter and a consequent collision with a car in the rear, the questions of negligence and contributory negligence were held to be questions of fact.
