No. 19,672.
George B. McAdow, Appellant, v. The Kansas City Western Railway Company, Appellee.
OPINION DENYING A REHEARING.
Appeal from Wyandotte district court, division No. 3; Hugh J. Smith, judge.
Opinion denying a rehearing filed November 12, 1915.
(For original opinion of reversal see ante, p. 423, 151 Pac. 1113.)
J. O. Emerson, David J. Smith, both of Kansas City, John H. Atwood, and Oscar S. Hill, both of Kansas City, Mo., for the appellant.
C. F. Hutchings, and McCabe Moore, both of Kansas City, for the appellee.

Opinion:
The opinion of the court was delivered by
Mason, J.:
In a petition for a rehearing the appellee urges that a recovery should be denied by reason of the provision of the federal employer's liability act (or the corresponding part of the Kansas statute) which entitles the defendant in such an action to a set-off on account of insurance, relief benefit or indemnity. This contention apparently was not made in the trial court, since it is not referred to in the brief here, and it will not now be considered. The petition for a rehearing is denied, but without prejudice to the right of the defendant to present in the district court whatever defense it may have in that connection.
