COMP PENSAT|OIV LAW
Unconstitutional.
New York Workingmen Lose
Hope of Damages in Case
of Injury.

ALBANY, n. Y, March 24.-The
workmen s compensation Iaw passed by
the legislature last year. which provides
compensation to workmen injured in
certain specified dangerous employ

The court holds that the act deprives
the employer of his property without
due process of law.
The law was modelled on the English
workmcn S compensation act of 1897,
which has since been extended to cover
every kind of occupational injury.
Judge Werner wrote the opinion in
which all the members of the court con-
cured. The main feature of the act
was that it required employers of labor
in certain occupations TO compensate
! their employees for any injury occur

/ sorely through the negligence of the
workman.
| The case at issue was that of Earl
I Ives, a switchman. against the South
Buffalo Crosstown Railway company.
! Ives was Injured while at work and
brought an action for damages, alleging
in his complaint that he was injured
solely by reason of n. necessary risk or
danger of his employment. The com.
pany admitted the facts. but alleged the
statute under which the action was
brought was unconstitutional.
