A Bill to Protect Rnilroad Employees.

A bill in which railroad employees generally
will be interested is now before the Senate ofNew
York The law provides that after September
next the different railroad companies shall have
all new cars built of uniform height, so that
they can be coupled without going between
them For any violation of the bill which may
cause the death of an employee the roads will be
fined $500 for every offense, which shall not be a
bar TO any recovery for damages. The law also
renders void any contract into which any en-
poye may have entered prior to mourning injury,
by which he may agree to waive rights to recover
damages for injuries, The last named form of
contract has come into rather extensive use on
the roads in this section. and the new law is, of
course important to the men affected by the
contracts. 1t is thought that the bill will pass,
as the Railroad Commissioners of that State
strongly favor its enactment
