Cities May Be Sued For

Injuries inflicted By Fire Truck, Rules Ohio Court COLUMBUS, 0.. July 9. The Ohio Supreme court Tuesday overturned a, doctrine that had served as a "leading case" in the state for a long period of years! It was the proposition that a municipality is not responsible for the acts of its servants when in exercise of governmental functions. This was established in the Fredericks case and is now altered through reversal of decisions of the courts of Cuyahoga county in the case of Mrs. Mary M. Fowler, administratrix, against the city of Cleveland, for $25,000 damages growing out of the death of her husband, Dr. W. H. Fowler, of Painesville, who was run down by a motor hose truck returning from a fire through the public square of Cleveland. Mrs. Fowler thereby , wins the right to sue, the court holding that the

city government, like the nummesi citizen, may not escape the consequences of wrongdoing. Justice Thomas E. Jones was the single dissenter.
