CO-EMPLOYE LAW
Is SUSTAINED BY
SUPREME COURT
HIGH TRIBUNAL RECOGNIZES THE
POWER OF LEGISLATURE TO
ENACT STATUTE.
JUDGE HASTINGS is UPHELD.
Railroad Appealed When Demurrer to
Complaint Was Overruled in
Brown County.
ExEMPTs SHOP AND OFFICE MEN.

MADISON, Wis, Jan. 5.-[Special. !
After three months consideration of
the co-employe law as raised in the case
of Michael Kiley VS.. the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul railway, the su-
preme court today handed down a de-
cision sustaining the law and recogniz-
ing the power Of the Legislature by
statute to prescribe rule of compare
tive negligence.
Can Compare Negligence.
Heretofore if the complainant was
himself at all negligent, under the con-
tributory negligence act the case was
dismissed. The new doctrine recognizes
that by permitting a comparison of negli-
gence and a decision upon that basis.
The company had set up class legisla-
ton plea.
1.-The exemption of shop and office en-
ployes from the operation of the law,
seems an appropriate one, says the de-
cision in reply to the argument, because
they were not engaged in that part OF
the business nor does their conduct bear
so directly in securing the safety Of the
public

undertook to obey an order to pull a
staple on wire fence out Of the post
with a hammer AS he did so, two fell
low employees pulled out the staple by
means of the wire and Kiley lost an eye,
the staple striking, it. Kiley sued for
$4,000. The road set up demurrer,
claiming chap. 254, laws of 1907, is class
legislation and therefore void The law
provides: Every railroad company
oh II no liz hlo for DAMAGES for niIIripS
sustained by any of its employees
* when such injuries shall have
been sustained by any officer, agent,
servant or employee when engaged in
the line of his duty as such, and when
such injury shall have been caused in
whole or greater part by any other
agent, servant or employe of such COM
pany in the discharge or by reason of
failure to discharge his duties as such.
The provision of this act shall not APP
ply to employees working in shops or Of
fees"
Judge Hastings in the Brown circuit
court overruled the demurrer and the
road appealed.

TEST CASE IS HEARD.
Question Involving Validity of 1nsur-
ance Laws Before Judge
Stevens.

MADISON. Wis, Jan. 5.-[Special.l
The test case to determine the validity
of the insurance laws enacted at the
last session of the Legislature, is being
heard in the circuit court of Dane coun-
ty before Judge Stevens this afternoon
The facts of the case are ali stipulated
so it is merely an argument on the law.
The withdrawing insurance companies
contend that they are not compelled to
file a report of expenses. The attorney
general has interpreted the statute to
mean that so long as these companies
have policies in force in the state they
are compelled to file statement.
