SUPREME COURT
DECISION In FELLOW SERVANT
CASE.
Railroad Company Not Liable TO Fire
man for Negligence of Teie-

Railroad company Nct ltabfe TO riTe-
man for Negligence Of Teie-
graph Operator.
Washington. May 1.-THE supreme
court OF the United States yesterday
laid down the principle that tele-
graph operator for a railroad company
and a fireman on a railroad engine are
fellow servants" and that the negli-
Eence OF the former causing the death
of the latter in the operation OF trains
was a risk the fireman assumed and
was not ground for damages against
the railroad company.
The case was that OF Allins A..
Dixon against the Northern Pacific
railroad for damages for the death OF
! her husband. C. A. Dixon, fireman on
the road, killed In collision caused
by the negligence of telegraph op-
orator.
The opinion delivered by Justice
Brewer answered two questions GER
titled from the United States circuit
court OF appeals for the eighth circuit
as follows:
First, when a local telegraph ope-
rator is called upon specifically by a
train dispatcher to give information
| relative to the arrival OF a train at his,
! station, to enable the dispatcher to
| formulate orders for the movement OF
other trains. does the local operator
4 in the matter of giving such informa1
ton act as a fellow servant of train
I operations in such sense that the mas
ter is not liable to train operatives
! who are injured I'm obeying an erro-
/ neous order OF the dispatcher that was
! induced by false information given by
/ the local OPERATOR"
The answer 10 the question Is:
THE telegraph operator was. under
/ the circumstances described. fellow
servant OF the fireman"
/ Second. is the negligence Of a local
/ telegraph operator and station agent
I of railway company. in observing
and reporting by telegraph to the
train dispatcher the movement OF
trains past his station. which causes
the injury or death Of a fireman OF the
company without any fault or negli-
gence OF the train dispatcher, the neg
llgence OF vice principal for which
the railway company is liable In DAM
ages TO the fireman or TO his personal
representatives, or Is II the negligence
of a fellow servant of the fireman tho
4 risk of which the latter assumes|
Answer-"The negligence Of the op-
| orator was the negligence of a fellow
servant OF the fireman. the risk OF
which the latter assumed"
A dissenting opinion was delivered
by Justice White and concurred in by
the Chief Justice and Justices Harlan
and McKenna. In this dissenting opin-
Ion the view was expressed that the
operator was the agent of the en-
ployer, and as such his negligence rem
dered the employer liable for damage
or death caused thereby.
The opinion was further expressed
that the courts decision would create
much confusion.
