    Louise Goldsmith and Charles Goldsmith, Respondents, v. The City of New York, Appellant.
   Action to recover for personal injuries to wife, and companion action of husband for loss of services, etc., arising out of an accident due to obstruction in a public highway and absence of lights thereon, during construction work by defendant. Judgment for plaintiffs reversed on the facts and a new trial granted, costs to abide the event, unless within ten days from the entry of the order hereon the plaintiffs stipulate to reduce the verdicts from $10,000 to $7,500 in plaintiff wife’s action and from $2,000 to $1,000 in the husband’s action for loss of services; in which event the judgment, as so reduced, is unanimously affirmed, without costs. In our opinion the verdicts are excessive. Present — Lazansky, P. J., Young, Hagarty, Adel and Taylor, JJ.
