PRESIDENT 8IQNS BILL.
Employers' Liability Law It Now In
Effect
Washington, April 23. President
Roosevelt today signed the employ
ers' liability bill upon receiving an
opinion trom Attorney-General Bon
aparte that the measure was consti
tutional. The bill makes railroads or other
common carriers, while engaged in
Interstate commerce, liable for the
Injury or death ot an employe If the
Injury or death results In whole or
In part from the negligence of any
of the oncers, agents or employes ot
the railroad, or by any defect or In
sufficiency In qulpment. This pro
vision Is made applicable to carriers
in the territories, tho District ot Co
lumbia, tho Panama canal zonn nnd
other possessions ot the United
States.
It is provided that In any action
brought under tho provisions of the
bill the Injured employe shall not be
held to have assumed the risk of his
employment In any caso whore vio
lation by the carrier of any statuto
enacted for safety ot employes con
tributed to the Injury or death of the
employe. Any contract, rule, regula
tion or device to enable the carrier
to exempt itself from liability under
the act Is rendered void by a specific
declaration to that end.
Provision Is mado, however, that
the carrier shall receive credit for
any contribution made to the em
ploye or bis family in the form ot In
surance, relief, benefit or Indemnity.
An action for the recovery of dam
ages must be commenced within two
years from the date of the cause of
suit.
