Important Points Won by Railroads

Important Points Won by Railroads.
Washington. Railroads won two i'm
portant points in personal injury suits
in the Supreme court. The court de-
cided that where the federal employ
ers' liability law of 1908 makes rail
roads absolutely liable if they are vio-
lating law" at the time an employee
is injured, the word law" meant
federal" and not state law" The
court set aside a judgment of S75OO
rendered by the supreme court of
North Carolina in favor of James T.
Horton, an engineer on the Seaboard
Air Line. The court also decided that
man injured while engaged in switch
ing interstate cars does not come
within the federal employers liability
act, though the next thing he was to
do constituted an act of interstate
commerce. AS result Of this decision
the court held that John Behrens, a
fireman of New Orleans, was not en-
titled to recover from the Illinois Cen
trail.

rendered the United States, the first
step now is completed and the way
paved for actual negotiations looking
TO a peaceful clearing up Of the situa-
ton
Neither Ambassador Riano nor the
peace ENJOYS would make public the
text Of the Hueuta acceptance. 1t was
said, however, that Senior Rojas re-
piled brieflyti accepting the offer and
thanking the South American pIe9ipo-
tentiaries and the Spanish ambassador
for their good offices, with refer
ence to the real spirit of solidarity
between peopels Of the same race"
No conditions are imposed in an
offer Of good offices, consequently the
reply from Mexico City was not ex-
nected to deal with conditions. That
stage will be reached when the peace
makers formulate their plans and
make known how they propose to use
the good offices which have been &C.
cepted. 1t was suggested that they
probably would ask the Washington
and Mexico City governments for
statements as to what each would de-
mand In the event formal mediation
were undertaken, and that upon the
nature Of the responses to this re-
quest would depend the proposals next
to be submitted
Unofficial adviees from Mexico City
already had made 1t virtually certain
that General Huerta would accept the
offer OF the peace ENJOYS, but the for
NAL announcement tended to further
relieve the slackening tension Of the
crisis. The news was given to Pres
ident Wilson, who expressed himself
as greatly pleased, though he would
make no further comment.
White house officials let it be known
that they were earnestly DESTROYS OF
aiding the South American diplomats
and that no announcements as to
points that would be Insisted upon by
the United States would be made or
anything else done at this time which
might embarrass their efforts
