k|lBANE IS NOT

 in the Ring

When a boxer reaches the top of a dlVision and is declared the champion oy friends and enemies alike he us. ualiy swells out his chest and looks TOT higher and greater trials to over come. Johnny Kilbane, recent con. queror of Abe Attell and new leader of the featherweigkts. is no different from the usual run.
 Being in the city that saw Ad Vol. gast start his boxing career. Kilbane thought it appropriate that he should say few things about the lightweight champion. Johnny fought hard to find just the right boost or knock. to fit and ended the think session by declar- ing that he would willingly fight Vol gast for the lightweight title. inasmuch as there were no feathers to fight him TOT the title. CT course it may be mentioned that this statement was made while Kilbane was enjoying q hanquet in celebration Of his twenty third birthday.
 Kilbane. up to this time. has shown himself clever boy. both in and out of the ring, and his declarations of war against Wolgast would seem that bis tongue slipped or else that he did not consider that the assertion would go further than the little gathering present, when he had something to say" KilbaRe as an opponent for Vol gast is impossible. Wolgast would spoil Johnny as boxer for the rest of his life, were the two to get togeth- CT.
 It does not seem possible that Xii bane can be sincere in this statement He realizes that he is smaller than the lightweight champion and that the Cadallac boy knows considerable more about the game. Johnny is a clever boxer. but he is not rugged enough to stand the fast pace and inside work of Ad
 It would be suicide for Kilbana to tackle Wolgast in long fight for .hc title: and 1t is certain that Wolgast would not consent to fight the Cleye- land boy ten rounds. kilbane would take a beating from Wolgast before he would quit, for he is not of the quitting kind. and this beating would mar Johnnys chances for the remaind- CT Of his fstic days.

SIMILAR STATE ACTS GOOD
Justice Vandeventer, Reading Opin.

Congress Within Rights.

WaShington.-After nearly a year,
consideration the Supreme court Of
the United States gave it's unanimous
approval to the employers liza
bility law enacted by congress in
1908 to take the place of a similar act
declared unconstitutional The de-
cision marks an epoch in labor legis-
lation.
BY the terms of the decision state
courts are permitted to enforce the
act when local laws permit.
This was the second and a success
full attempt of congress to change the
old common law rule than an en-
ployc OF common carrier could not
recover damages from the carrier for
injuries received in his employment
when the injuries resulted from the
negligence Of a fellow servant. The
first law, that enacted in 1906, was de-
clared unconstitutional in 1908, be-
cause it embraced within it's terms a
regulation of interstate as we'll as in
terstate commerce.
Justice Vandevanter announced the
opinion, which was unanimous and a
complete victory for the government
on every point. The case had been
under advisement since last February.
Justice Vandevanter declared that
congress had the right to regulate the
relations of interstate railroads to
their employees. Congress had not
gone beyond its power by abrogatlng
the common law rule that an employ
er was not liable for the injuries re-
sulting to employees from the negli-
gence of fellow servants.
mo one had a vested property right
in the common law said the justice
No objection was found in the fact
that the act did away with the doc
trine of assumption of risk" by en-
plOyes and restricted the doctrine OF
"contributory negligence"
The Supreme court declined to re-
view the action of the United States
circuit court of appeals at New York,
which ordered new trial in the ia
nous Danbury hatters' case. The
trial court held members Of the United
Hatters of North America liable for
$230,000 damages under the Sherman
antitrust law for an alleged boycott
of two Danbury, Conn, hat manufac-
turcrs.
