   O’BRIEN, J.

The questions presented, save as to some rulings upon evidence to which exception was taken, and which we do not regard as very material, are similar to those in Pape v. Railroad Go. (herewith handed down) 77 N. Y. Supp. 725. The injunction granted should be modified, for the same reason as in the case referred to, namely, that the learned trial judge overlooked the fact that, in addition to the width of the cut, which was 56 feet, there were sustaining walls, which made the entire width of the ground occupied and used for railroad purposes 61 feet 8 inches. The fee damages here awarded should also ,be modified, by reducing them to $8,000, and . the extra allowance should accordingly be reduced. As so modified, the judgment should be affirmed, without costs.
