Washington. Jan. 15.7-After nearly
g. years consideration, the United
States supreme court today gave its
unanimous approval Of the employers
liability law enacted by congress In
1908.s to take the place Of similar. act
declared unconstitutional. The de-
cision marks an epoch in labor iegis-
lation.
The old common law hedging in the
rights OF employees was displaced in
several; particulars by the statute ap-
proved today. Notably Is the aboli-
ton Of the fellow servant doctrine
and the substitution os law making
employers liable for negligence OF an
employe resulting in injury to an In
terstate ernploye. Furthermore. It
free employees from "contributory
negligence" in many instances and
limits the effect OF the doctrine IN
others. Likewise in many cases It
liberates the employe from assuming
a risk when he enters employment
knowing of the danger in the employ
ment.

Montana, Maria Walsh case from

case from Connecticut the law was
attacked seemingly from every con

Washington, Jan. 15.-Senator Lori
mer was dramtic in the extreme in
his testimony before the senate com
n1ittee today. In detailing the story
OF his life he told how he was a boot
black at the age of ten to support a
widowed mother and five other Chi
oren; then cashboy, laborer, house
painter, street car conductor and
building contractor. He traced his
way in politics from constable to the
senate.
He was the coolest man in the room
while relating his story. The political
sensation OF the day came when he
declared the faithlessness of former
Mayor Busse of Chicago. and ex- -Sena-
tor Hopkins defeated Ex-Governor
Yates in the primary with Deneen, the
present governor.
He said Charles A. White. whose
confession Of bribery formed the foun-
dation of the present inquiry, came to
him and volunteered his vote. This
part of the testimony is in conflict
with others.
At the close of the story Lorimer
was turned over to the committees s
counsel for cross examination which
had only started when a recess was
taken.

A fine OF $500 has been assessed by
the treasury department ofnciaIs at
Washington against the italian bark
Gessi, Captain Torchi, which arrived
here week or more ago from Genoa.

with the federal regulations relating
TO the departure from foreign ports
without bills OF health from the Amer
lean consul or consular agent. Cap
tain Torchi was notified yesterday
morning OF the action Of the depart
ulent and he called within a few hours
at the custom house and paid over
the amount Of the fine
When the GesSo left Genoa the
master failed to call AZ the American
consulate for a bill OF health, and as
a consequence when the vessel reached
here and II could not be produced
when customs inspectors boarded her
for inspection, a report was forwarded
to the department at Washington, to-
gether with the masters excuse FOR
his failure TO provide the ship with
the proper papers before sailing. As
a usual thing fines OF from $40 to $50
are imposed, and IN some Instances
these are suspended. but owing to the
prevalence Of contagious disease 81
the port of departure q fne OF $500
was assessed against the vessel, prob.
ably as warning to other ship mas
ters that all of the regulations regard
ing departures and entries must bc
strictly complied with.
The master OF the Gesso could have
waited dkuntil he was ready 10 depart
before paying the ana, but he pre-
ferred to pay over the moSsey' ct once.
