The conductor of street railroad in
New York refused to give woman the
amount Of change she said she was en-
titled to, and called her swindler and
dead beat. She sued the company, claim
ing big damages. The supreme court
held that the company was not RESPONSE
bleble for rude or slanderous language
OF it's employees and that the woman
should be awarded nothing beyond the
change she claimed. The court of ap-
peals has reversed the supreme court.
It says that where the servants Of a COM
