Ev a majority opinion, the full bench
of The Massachusetts supreme court To-
dav sustained thc defendant S exception

holding that the Employer Llaoilily

for injury sustained from a locomotive

pairs. The effect Of the decision Is TO SET
aside q verdict Of $500 returned by
jury last January I'm favor OF the pam
Tiff. The plaintiff was employed 10y the
railroad company as a labOrer Ills M
iurv was received while hc was engaged
in repairing the steam heater OF an en-

roundhouse near Dover street, in south
Boston. over a pit in which the plaintin
stood The engineer opened the blow-oH

escape. scalding Perry. Upou issues
submitted TO the mcmbers OF the jury
il was found by them that the Supeflh-
tendcnt or foreman Of Perry was negh-
gent in sending him 10 work under the
engine without providing against such
an injury: ana they also found that the
engineer then In control OF the engine
was negligent in blowing off the engine
while the plaintiff was working under ID.
Spealsing Of the claim that the foreman
wa negligent. the Court says. from the
evidence IL appears that the engineer and
the fireman Of the locomotive knew that
some one would he sent by the foreman
TO do the relair. and IL hardly would
seem necessary for the foreman TO notify
them that he nad done what In the ordi-
nary course of things they had every
reason TO expect he would do. The Court
also says that IL aid not appear that
there was anything unusual about the
lob. or in tho manner or place OF doing
il. The place vas dangerous, but the
nlaintn knew it. He also knew that the
engine would have TO be blown down
when the check ne was grinding I'm was
ground in, and that that was done over
the Dit as commonly as anywhere. The
court concluded that there was no negli-
gence on the part Of the foreman in
failing to notify The plaintiff of what he
well understood himself
In respect 10 the claim that the
defendant vas liable for the negligence
Of the engineer. who was in control Of
the engine In blowing OF the steam. the
Court holds. without deciding whether
he was negligent, that he dd not have
