Washington, Dee. 1ls-sHow much then is man better than a. sheep?G
 The rebuke of Christ to the Pheri- sees is cited ih a rebuke to the Bal timore and Ohio Railroad Company in a decison by Justice stafford of the District Supreme Court sustaining a demurrer by F. E. Goldenstein, tn- 1ured in the service Of the company. to the companyis plan that he had bar tered away his right to damages by accepting relief beneft.
 The court rules that the railroad cannot avoid its liability to an em- ploye under the employers liability act by pleading that the enaploye con- tracted before entering employment that he was to receive only certain damages in event of injury.
 The court declares an employe may depudiate his release of real damages just as a borrower may recover usury as payment and railroad cannot se- cure immunity by A clause in a bill of lading for live stock, so 1t cannot kill and maim employees with im- munity because 1t provides 6 hospital kept up chiefly by the men whose lives are in its charge.
 Contracts of indemnity insurance and of relief benefits, according to the court, are an attempt of employers to restrict their common law liability.
