VERDICT FOR d.. -...ANT
IN $4,000 DAMAGE SUI!
Court Decides Workman Injured
Through Carelessness of Co.
Laborer Has No Redress.

Justice Anderson in Circuit Court No.
2 granted today motion to direct YER
dict for the defendant in the, case Of
Charles A. Spates against Wells Brothers
company for the recovery of $4,000
damages for personal injuries alleged to
have been suffered by the plaintiff while
working as a carpenter on the construc-
ton of the Riggs building.
The case has been on trial for the past
three days. 1t was contended by At
torneys Greed NJ. Fulton and George C.
Cabell on behalf of Mr.. Spates that while
engaged in carpentry work on the sixth
floor of the building May 10, 1912, sec
ton of door trim which had been placed
in the room in an insecure position fell
upon his neck. causing permanent injury
to his spine and a permanent deformlty
of the neck. incapacitating him from fol-
lowing his trade.
The defendant contended that having
afforded safely constructed room to
work in. and furnished the plaintiff with
negligence. and that if the result was
due to improper placing of the material
by a co-workman The law governing Eel
low servants prevented a recovery.
The court took the matter under con-
sideration late yesterday afternoon, after
conclusion OF arguments OF counsel 1or
the plaintiff and of Attorneys Wilton J.
Lambert, B. S. Minor and r. II. 1eat-
man for the defendant company, and

Bonar Law Makes Motion in
Commons in H0rne
Rule Fight.
SIR EDWARD CARSON
CALLS .DEVLIN A LIAR
Asquith Rejects Proposed Referen-
dunn on Bill and Local Option
Plan for Ulster

LONDON, March ia vote OF censure
on the British government was moved to-
day in the house of commons by Andrew
Bonar Law. leader of the opposition. 1t
was based on Premier Asquith's refusal
Monday to give details of the scheme of
local option by which the nine counties
of Ulster would be permitted to vote
separately on the question of the new
Irish government.
The leader of the opposition offered
to give a guarantee that if the gov
ernment would take a referendum of
the United Kingdom on the home rule
bill and the local option proposal the
unionists. both in the house of lords
and in the house of commons. would
place no impeachment in the way of
carrying out the will of tbs people.

Carson Backs UP Law.

Sir Edward Carson, the Ulster union
st leader. backed up MIR Laws offer
by saying that if the premier was pre-
pared to give him definite offer of
"eferendum he would accept that de-
cision.
When Sir Edward Carson and Joseph
Devlin, nationalist member for Belfast,
entered the house the atmosphere became
heated. The Ulster leader called MI
Devlin a liar when the nationalist MEM
Der declared that Sir Edward Carson at
one time had been a home ruler.
1T is an Infamous lie" roared Sir Ed
ward Carson, and when the speaker sug-
gested modification of his language, Sir
Edward substituted for II:
The statement is wilful falsehood."
Shouts of protest and cheers in sup
port of both members filed the chamber
and it was some minutes before the
speaker was able to make himself heard
in an appeal for the avoidance OF per-
sonalites.
Mr.. Laws proposition that a referen-
dunn of the country should be taken on
the home rule bill and the local option
proposal for Ulster was rejected by Pre-
mer Asquith, who said that he believed
the governments proposal offered the
only hope of lasting settlement.

Comment on Refusal.

If Mr.. Asquith refused the course sus-
sested. said Mr.. Law, it could only DE
because the government thought, in the
words Of Winston Spencer Churchill, that
the question should be settled by bullets
rather than by votes"
Mr.. Laws speech concluded with the
following words:
w hat about. the army If it is only
a question of disorder the army will and
ought to obey. but If it is a question of
civil war the soldiers are citizens like
the rest of the people. The army will
be divided, and that force be DESTROYED

safety

The premier. who spoke only for a few
minutes, said: THE government does

which there would be no coercion of
Ulster. ihe scheme gives a six-year trial
OF home rule before there would be any
attempt to bring Ulster under its pro-
visions. 1t is my belief that in the gov
eminent $ proposals lies the only hope
of a lasting settlement

statement later was officially declared to

Contentious of Law.

Mr.. Law in his speech contended that
the government could avail itself Of a
referendum without any sacrifice of its
principles or dignity. He said he did not
desire TO stand on technicalities. He de-
clared that if Premier Asquith's proposal
that the counties of Ulster should vote
on the question of inclusion in the Irish
government meant that Ulster was not
to be driven from the United Kingdom
against her will. it would be accepted as
a basis of discussion. If however 1t
meant that at the end of certain time
the people of Ulster We're to be brought
automatically under the power of the
Dublin parliament against their will the
unionists rejected il.
The opposition leader then made his
offer of a guarantee that the unionists
would place no impeachment in the way
OF carrying out the will of the people if
the government would take referendum
of the United Kingdom on the home rule
bill and the local option proposal for
Ulster. He promised that if the result
OF the referendum was in favor of the
bill as amended by Premier Asuuith's
local option proposal nothing would be
done by the unionists against the putting
INTO operation of the will of the people
