COMMISSIONER KEARNY HAD TEN NEW HOMES
LIKE THE ONE IN RIvINGToN- ST. IN MIND.
There would be ten public baths in this
city to-day according to H. S. Kearny, Commis-
sioner of Public Buildings Lighting and Supplies,
IL Controller Collier had not pigeonholed certain
recommendations which the Commissioner had
made. An effort will be made have Mr.. Coer
take up the subject his return TO the city
this week.
1t about two years ago that Commissioner
Kearny sent to the Board of Estimate a recon-
mendation that the sum of 10000 be used in the
construction of ten baths, similar to the one in
Rivngton-st. The Board of Estimate turned the
letter to Mr. Coler for investigation. 1t is not
known just what he had for not reporting
1t. A second letter from Commissioner Kearny
met with the same fate.
II is said that the Board of Estimate would ap
proprate the sS0O0OO needed for baths If Mr.. Coer
favored the plan. Mayor Van Wyck. a member OF
the board is on record as favoriEg more public
baths Randolph Guggenheimer and other mem

Commissioner Kearny, in his letter to the Board
the plan had view. 1t provided for ten baths:
three for each of the Boroughs of Manhattan and
Brooklyn, two fo- The Bronx, for Queens and
for Richmond. He would divide the 100000
lyn, $4,000 for The Bronx, $4,000 for Queens and
$4,000 for Richmond. He suggests that the batn-
houses be placed in the tenement house districts
wherever possible.
This estimate was based a report furnished

4 DECISION OF INTEREST IN ACCIDENT CASE
FROM ILLINOIS.

A DECISION OF INTEREST IN ACCIDENT CASE
FROM ILLINOIS.
The Supreme Court Of Illinois has just handed
down decision in the OF O'Donne. as ad-
mnistrator OF Isaac d. Alyea. against the William
Graver Tank Works. affirming the decision of the
lower court, sustaining the verdict of a jury in
favor OF ODonneH, for S. In consequence of the
defendants negligence. which resulted in the death
Of Alyea.
The decision goes much further than that in New
York cases in fastening liability employers in
like situations especially that part of the opinion
holding that an employe who has received the di-
rectIon of foreman TO work in dangerous place
does not assume the hazard of obedience, unless
the danger to which he is so exposed is so i'm
mlnent that man Of ordinary prudence would not
have incurred it
The facts were that the foreman commanded the
employe TO go up sCaffOld with a pair of
tongs weighing forty or fifty pounds and stand
board foot wide, and assist in preventing the
upper section OF a iron pipe from turning while
the lower section being uuscrewed by the com
bned strength of three men. He either fell or was
twisted of the sCaffold and killed. In the face Of
these facts. without doubt New York trial
would have dismissed the complaint the doc
trine of assumption of risk.
