IMPORTANT RULING
BY APPEALS COURT
Negligence No Bar To Recovery OF
Damages For Personal
Injury

The important ruling was made
by the Court of Appeals today
that the wilful misconduct which
would be bar to recovery for per-
sonal injury. is not produced by mere
acts of negligence or thoughtlessness.
This rule was laid down in an opinion
delivered by Judge Urner in the appeal
of F. B. Beasman and Co.. contractors
engaged in work at Camp Meade, and
the U. S. Fidelity and Guaranty Com
panies, insurers of the company
against suits for damages for acci-
dents, against Ernest Butler.
Butler sustained a crushed foot
when motor truck ran over it. The
defendants sought to show that his
own negligence in attempting to jump
on the moving truck, had contributed
to the accident. The Court of Appeals
held that such an act was not a bar
to recovery for the accident. 1t ruled
adversely to the other claims of the
appellants, and sustained the State In
dustrial Accident Insurance Commits
sion and the Superior Court of Balti-
more City in directing a weekly pay
ment to Butler according to the terms
of the law.

Hearty. even enthusiastic. support
was given by the Presbytery of Balti-
more. at it's 335th Stated Meeting
which was held this morning in the
Presbyterian church of Annapolis, to
the plan for building a new church
and manse in this city. In this con-
nection. many of the members took
occasion to say that the pastor, Rev.
Maurice s. White, was the man to
bring the whole matter to successful
fruition, and that his zeal. ability and
character were such as to mark him
for great usefulness in this field.
About thirty-five ministers attended
the melting, DIR. Dewitt NJ. Benham.
pastor of Central Presbyterian church,
of Baltimore, being the Moderator.
Business sessions were held in the
morning and afternoon, the later ses-
sion being completed in time for a
visit to the Naval Academy, where the
ministers were shown every courtesy
by the Academy authorities This eve
ming, there will be a public session.
1t was under the head of "call of the
churches" that the matter of a new
and large church for Annapolis was
brought to the attention of the Pres
bytery by Mr.. White He spoke of the
large attendance of midshipmen and
naval people and of the greater work
that could be done in bigger church.
He said that the church will now hold
but 200, and the morning congrega-
tions. with so midshipmen, crowd it to
the limit. TIE work among other mem
bers of the naval personnel, the candi-
dates and ST. Johns students was also
mentioned by the pastor.
DIR. Alphonso Smith. head of the De-
partment of English at the Academy
and an elder of the local church, fol-
lowed.
Great confidence in the outlook was
shown by all the members present,
and the proposition approving of the
work and commenting it to the Pres
byterian people everywhere, passed
unanimously. 1t was felt that this
work was more than the concern of
Annapolitans only, as Mr.. White stated
that two-thirds of his congregation
was transient, and that Presbyterians
everywhere should have a deep in
terest in it. The plan is to secure the
buildings between church and the cor
ner, and the lots on Conduit street,
back of it, and on these and the pres
ent site of the church to erect the new
church and manse.

 OF CHINESE
 NOW IN PEKIN

Peking, Sunday, April 2s---By The Associated s).---George A. Kyle of Portland, Ord, the American engineer released last week after having been held captive by Chinese bandits for 52 days, has returned to Picking little the worse for his experience. A bullet hole in the shoulder of his coat bears witness to his narrow escape when the bandits fired on him at 10 paces on the day of his capture.
 The release was effected by Charles D. Penney, Chinese secretary of the American legation, and F. c. Hitch dock of the Stems Carey Railway & Canal Co.,, in conjunction with the Chinese General Chang and the Cath olic mission. No ransom was paid, but Gen. Chang guaranteed the leald- CTS places on his body guard.
 MT. Kyle said he had been well treated by the bandits, who paid him every attention and did their best to make him comfortable while he was keut secreted in various villages. The long night marches were the most trying experiences, he said.
