    March 10, 1909.)
    Action by Joseph Warrine against the Eagle Wagon Works.
   PER CURIAM.

Judgment and order affirmed, with costs.

KRUSE, J.,

dissents, upon the ground that \ service of notice under the employer’s liability I act simultaneously with the summons was a f compliance with that statute, and that errone- j ous rulings upon that question and others were made in submitting the case to the jury, which/ require a reversal of the judgment.
