operation or control of a vehicle required to be registered or licensed,
where the pleading containing the cause of action states the

the avenue or street upon which the said streetcar or omnibus was
operated, the place where the accident occurred, and the number of the
streetcar or omnibus or the name or number of any of the employees
operating the said streetcar or omnibus at the time in question, the
pleader need not prove upon the trial the ownership, operation or
control of the particular streetcar or omnibus by the other party and
the same shall be deemed admitted, unless specifically denied in the
responsive pleading.

ownership, operation or control of such building, dwelling or tenement
house by the other party and the same shall be deemed admitted, unless
specifically denied in the responsive pleading.

(b) Signature. A signature to a written instrument which is pleaded

organized or authorized to do business pursuant to the laws of the state
of New York, the existence of such corporation shall be deemed admitted
