LIABILITY OF EMPLOYER.
Mr. Carter's bill [H. R. 29--see pages 90 and 2l0] fixing the liability of employers to employes for injury, was read the third time.
Mr. BUSKIRK said this bill carries out the idea of the bill of the gentleman from Laporte (Mr. Davis). I think the idea is right and shall support the bill.
Mr. MOODY favored the passage of the bill because it protects and provides for the poor man who, when he sustains an injury, has no means of support.
The bill failed to pass--yeas, 39; nays, 36.
