Battles in 6aIiGia and Prussia
Greatest in History.
ST. PETERSBURG DENIES Loss
Official Report Says Arriles Still Re-

Almost Wiped Out.
ST. PETERSBURG DENIES LOSS

London. Sept. 1.-THE battles in
east Prussia and in Galicia are now
believed to have been among the
mightiest conflicts known in history.
So much is indicated by DISPATCHES
from the capitals of all the nations
involved. What triumphs may have
been won by either side. 1t is as yet
impossible to state with authority.
From official German sources come
statements that the kaiser's men have
won q brilliant and decisive victory
oger. the Russians at Allenstein, al
most Wiping out three Russian army
corps labout 100000 mem, and taking
10000 prisoners along with their off,
GERS, their equipment and all the Rus
sian artillery engaged.
A wireless message from Berlin
says:
The. German victory at Allen
stein proves greater than had been
expected. The Russian forces there
have been crushed. In addition to
the thousands of private soldiers and
minor officers captured, the Germans
have taken two generals. Brazilian
military attache at Berlin says that
the German victories are no sur
prise to those who have seen the Ger
man maneuvers in peace"
Against the German claims Of
great success are opposed contrad1c-
tons from official Russian sources.
At St. Petersburg 1t is stated off,
ctally:
1.-THE Russian armies maintain all
their positions and continue on the
aggressive The Austrians have suf-
fered heavy defeats, with great losses
at the hands of the Russian army in
Galicia.''t
Austrian Lose 10000.
Further details of the fighting IN
Galicia, where 5000, 900 men have been
engaged, are contained in dispatches
from Bucharest, Roumania, which
reached London by way Of Rome.
One of these messages says:
The Roumanian government was
officially Informed that the Russian
army invading Ga1icia has admins
tered crushing defeat to the Aus
TRANS, ct least 10000 Of whom are
killed or wounded. It is believed that
the battle took place near I-emberg.
The. Russian victory is colossal"
. Another Bucharest dispatch telling
Of i an engagement on the Vistula
says:
Reports Of a great battle near Po-
dajee are confirmed. The Austrians
lost 5000 killed The Russians are
within meday march of Lemberg."
Draw Out Of Belgium
The gravity, Of the eastern situa-
ton is further indicated by dispatches
from Antwerp telling Of more with
drawals of German forces from Bel
GUM, which is said to be almost
evacuated by the enemy. Persistent
rumors say that these Withdrawals
are made for the purposes Of strength
ening Germany's eastern defense.
The report that the kaiser himself
has gone to the eastern frontier Is
not yet confrmed--but the rumor,
whether true or not, is reported to
have caused great uneasiness in Ber-
lin. Civilians In the German capital
are convinced that the kaiser would
not leave the critical situation In the
west If he were not convinced that
the eastern peril has become of para
mount Importance. The unrest at
=
grave than that at Paris.

On the other hand, in Iowa when a
workman is injured in n particular
industry. the law says to the branch
Of that particular industry where the
accident occurred: You owe to this
workman a given amount, which is
fixed according to the schedules OF
the law, and the state of Iowa pro-
poses to e that you pay the injured
employee that sum OF money. Now you
can either show that you are solvent,
and will continue 80 until all the
payments have been made to the In
jured employe, or you can contract
with some third party to insure
liability; that is. pay to the injured
employee the amount which you other.

retinements, It was a charge pom the
industry, If not, 1t was a charge upon
the workman and his family who
we're dependent upon him. There
were many who complained that this
was an unjust imposition upon the
working class, and likewise many an
employer complained Of the unfairness
OF juries in awarding large sums for
trivial injuries. Complaint Of condi-
lions existing came from both en-
ploye and employer.
The next step in the solution OF the
problem vas the passage Of what
are known as Employers Liability
and workmen's Compensation Acts.
These have within the last few years
been passed in upwards of twenty
states in the union. The law as pass
ed in Illinois from the standpoint Of
the award, is slightly more favorable
to the workman, that is, the payments
on a given schedule OF injuries are
somewhat larger in amount than
those in Iowa; but the Iowa law is
regarded as more favorable to the
workman from the fact that 1t &C.
cures to the workman the amount
due him when he receives the injury.
Illinois Law.
The Illinois law says to the indus
try in which the workman Is engaged,
that on account Of such and such an
injury a given amount is due from
that industry to the worker who re-
ceived the injury, and 1t specifies that
it shall be paid by the branch of that
industry where the accident occur
red, in certain payments. but il before
the final of those payments is made,
that particular branch of the industry
in which the workman was engaged
becomes insolvent, he must take his
place with other creditors and receive

Employers Assumption.

The so called Assumption Of risk"
IS to a certain extent embraced in
the fellow servant doctrine rule,
and It means that every risk involved
in any given employment, after the
employer has done what the law re.
quires him to do with reference to
safety, is assumed as a matter of law
by each Of the employees. This means
that the courts construe in the EN-.
ploye's contract of service a promise
that he will assume all the ordinary
and obvious risks incident to his
employment, and he agrees that II he
is injured thereby he cannot recover
from the employer. These are term
ed by some courts the ordinary risks
OF employment and by others the
profes sional risks" or in common
language 1t means the accidents which
are uue to nobody's fault.
This doctrine OF Assumption of
risk" has worked a hardship on the

liability on the employer or master
The phase Of law known as the EN-
ployers' liability therefore arose NOR
from the inability of the employe t.
make compensation for his owl
wrongs than from any other source.
However, one employee was suppos
ed to know the other employees, and i
he received an injury from a fellow

part OF the master or employer. TIL
fellow servant" doctrine was an ex
ception to the rule Of Responded
superior and was based upon tn
theory that the employees had in
timacy with each other which did no
exist between those who were not en-
pIoyes In the same household or fac
tory.
First Decision In Iowa.
This doctrine was presented for tn
in the case OF Sullivan VS.. Mississippi
& Missouri Railroad company, II lows
421. In discussing this question. MI
Chief Justice Lowe, who was former
ly q resident of Keokuk, stated tn;
rule and the reason therefor as fol
lows:
Where different persons are
employed by the same principal
in a common enterprise, no
action can be brought by them
against their employer on &C.
count Of injuries sustained by
one employe through the neglig-
ence OF another. Like the main
rule, this exception is founded
upon public policy, and had its
origin in the idea that the EN-.
ploye has the mean of knowing
just as we'll as the employer all
the ordinary risks incident to
the service in which he is about
to engage, and that these, In
Guiding tie perils that might
arise from the negligence Of
other servants in the same busi-
ness, entered into the contemp-
lation Of the parties in making
the contract; on account OF
which, the law implies, the serv-
ant or employe has insisted
upon a rate OF compensation
which would indemnify him for
the hazards of the employment.
And again, the law supposes
that the relation which the sew
eral employees sustain to each
other, and the business In which
they are engaged, would enable
them better to guard against
such risks and accidents, than
could the employer. Besides
moral effect Of devolving these
risks upon the employees them
selves, would be to induce a
greater degree Of caution, prud-
ence and fidelity than in all
probability would be otherwise
exercised by them"
