the substitution oi comparative negli-
gence tor the doctrine of contributory
negligence. He said: "The working.
men of the state do not come as peti-
tioners for this legislation. but theyl
demand that their wishes shall be
carried out. They believe the time
has come when the workingmsn
should receive the recognition he
justly deserves. We are the men who
produce. We are the brown and mus.
sic of the state. Let the employee
have the opportunity to accept com-
pensation for injury if they can get
it and let him have. the right to sue
for injuries, and do it under an em-
ployers' liability act.
"The iellow servant rule must go,
and with it the assumption of risks
and contributory negligence." .
Fisher's Measure.
Mayor Fisher handed to the com-
mittee copies of a bill be had drawn
for a compensation act and tor an em-
ployers‘ liability act. lie spoke ior
about an hour and a halt. leading up
to the bills in question. pointing out,
in u very comprehensive way the
progress of liability and compensation
laws in other countries. and the new
law in New York state. He said the
interests involved are great. lie took
up some statistics and said that prob-
ably about 30,000 persons in the in-
dustrial trades were killed in the
world each year and between 300,000
and 600,000 injured. in that state the
present great evil of industrial sect:
dents has no just remedy. A point
overlooked in the. day beicre‘s discus.
sion. he said. was that the burden. of-
proci to prove a fault is upon the“
plaintiff, and for this reason there is
practically no redress in the larger
number 0i cases. in this country only
11 per cent. at the accidents are com-
pennted‘ior and the amounts run very
small.
in explaining the bill be had drnwn.
he said that he was convinced'that no
compensation not could be drawn in
which the hazardous trades could be
deilued other than those which are
governed by the police power of the
state. Taking the Wisconsin reports,
he showed that only a little over live
perecent. oi the accidents were due to
fault oi fellow servants. so be con-
tended tbut Mr. lionahue's claim [or
simply abrogation of this rule did not
go iar enough.
Eliminates Assumed Risks.
0n the other hand. more than ‘50
per cent. of accidents were attrihutn- .
ble to assumed risks. ' lie had pru- '
ritlcd ior elimination of assumed
risks as well as substitution at com-
paratlvc negligence. for that of con-
tributory negligence. lie said that his
hill rents largely on the New York bill

lire. ilo took up section by section

Eumpe. .
To Mr.'Chlmdler. Mr. Fisher said
that the amount oi recovery under a
compensation act was not much dlie
ierout than under it liability law. The
more for litigation under a liability
law, that ,is. it costs money for
lawyers. ‘
Senator Judson asked Mr. Donahue
ii the Fisher bills would be acceptable
in case that common law detention rc-
iuniu with the employc in case the
einployors‘reiuse to accept the com
pcnsniion act. Mr. Donahue did not
wish to depart from his position oi
yesterday and u colloquy occurred.
Railroad Men’s Case.
E. l. C. Terry, oi New ilavcn. repro-
scntlng various railroad organizations,
told the committee that they had
better throw away all bills and start
in alresh. He ridiculed the scale oi
compensation set iorth in the Fisher
bill, as railroad men are better puid
than the classes of trades covered by
the bill. He said he would not stand
ior anything which would diminish
the amount of compensation or take
away rights which workingmcn have
ponder the names law. What they
did ‘wa tr “something which would
make t e master pay adequately for
theiniuay sustained by the employee.
He said .that liability law had got to
be pushed through to be used .as a
lever‘ [or
the law which made compensation
compulsory and still retaining to vein-
ployees their common law rights in
case the employer refused to accept
the law. Mr. Terry said "yes,’ as he un-
derstood the question. Mr. Terry said
that it locked to him as it some one
in pushing a compensation law was
trying to lsrupt the unions by giving
to pay dues. He thought It this was
so it would be hard to hold then in
the unions which he represented.
Many speakers.
‘Represontatlvo Chandler told Mr.
Terry that. he need not worry. as he
