AN OLD SUIT.
Decision of the Law Cours in York
County Case.

The following rsacript was received yes.
terday from the Law court:
York, ~.
Howard Bessey, per Pro Ami. VS..
Newichawanick Company. Rescript.
The plaintiff, seventeen years and two
months old and of ordinary intelligence,
had been empoysd In defendants mill off
and on Tor two years, first in the card
room, then as spinner, and lastly for
four weeks in the dye room where he was
while at work accidentally injured. Be-
fore this he had noticed how the WORK In
the dry room had been carried on by
other employees. The dye-room contained
| four vats, each six feet long by i've wide
and two feet seven inches In height above
8 plAnking that oirslsd the vat was the
| door. The planks were eight to ten inches
wide, lying flAtly on the floor and beveled
| of from the vat. There was an open
frame lifted with stats in the vat and q
| hoisting gear connected with 1t by which
the frame loaded With wool was lowered
into and raised out Of the hot dye. To
raise the frame up from the vat two men,
plaintiff and another, were required to
connect certain hooks and rings together
in tn, gearing above the vat, and while
they were leaning over the vat, on oppo-
site sides Of 1t, In an attempt to effect the
coupling the plaintiff fell into the vat
and was badly scalded. His own evidence
was that the floor was wet about the vat,
and was usually 60, and that he slipped
and went into the vat; and neither from
him or from any witness Is there any
other evidence as to how the accident
happened. Held. on these facts that the
plaintiff cannot recover, either upon the
ground that the defendant did not fur
nsh safe and sufficient machinery, or
that the plaintiff was not sufficiently in
struoted In the hazards of the employ
ment. The presumption is that the plain
tiff was guilty of some oarelessnss thai
caused the injury.
Judgment for defendant.
