Supreme Court Holds That Employees Can Secure Dam ages for Injuries Re
 ceived in Darkness

Montgomery, November 25-(SpeclaL) In affirming a judgment of the Mont gomery city court, which awarded b. Byrd s125O damages for personal injuries sustained in railroad yard at Flomaton, while employed by the Louisville ana Nashville railroad, the supreme court Saturday held that a railroad should pro vide sufficient lights in railroad yaros for the protection of their empioyes, and a failure so to do may be submitted to the jury in a suit for damages. The decision was on a novel point which had not come before the court before and at tracted unusual interest
 The railroad contended that lights hinder a railroad employe rather than help him as they blind him while in the performance of his duty. Attorneys for Byrd answered with the declaration that the Louisville and Nashville railroad had provided electric lights in the yards at Birmingham, Montgomery, Mobile and Pensacola, thus disproving the theory of the railroad. Attorneys for the railroad answered that the lights in other railroad yards were for the protection of travellers and not for it's employees.
