RULING MADE IN COMPENSATION Important Questions Passed Upon by Commissioner Scott in Western Case Important rulings In regard to con tracts and compensation are mado by Commissioner John A. Scott and con curred in by other members of the State Compensation Board in a de cision given upholding the referee In the compensation claim of Polly Wil liams, Latrobe, vs. Tempest Brick Co., McKeesport. It was claimed that the employe reported for work while in toxicated, but the opinion fails to find that intoxication was the "proximate cause of his death." "Compensation is no part of the consideration forming the basis of the original contract of employment be tween the parties but only an agreed sum based, it Is true, on a proportion of the wages stipulated in the con tract of hiring and which is accepted In lieu of unliquidated damages form erly possible to be recovered in an other and distinct form of action," says the opinion. "The clear intent of the Legislature was to abolish the old law with its remedies and defenses as it existed before the enactment of the compensation act of 115 and to sub stitute therefore a new system where in fault or negligence by either em ployer or employe shall have no place. "The old defenses and rules laid down by the courts and based on neg ligence can only apply to the Inter pretation and enforcement of the main contract of hiring and not the contract for compensation for Injury or death. The only defense recognized by article 111 is when injury or death be intentionally self-inflicted, with the burden of proof on the one pleading such defense. The Intent of the Leg islature to exclude intoxication or reckless indifference to danger as a de fense are specifically mentioned as available under article II which still recognizes the common law basis, as contra-distinguished from the thought involved in article 111. "It has been urged that intoxication, when it results in injury or death, is tantamount to a self-inflicted injury. We do not think that this was intend ed by the Legislature, especially not under the facts developed in this case." In the case of Wesley Colegrove vs. Charles Seyler, both of Port Alle gany, Commissioner James W. Leech finds that there was sufficient testi mony that Colegrove "was injured, while engaged in furthering the inter ests of the defendant, and that the said injury necessitated an operation for appendicitis." The board in the case of Karpati vs. the Cambria Steel company, refuses to award compensation to the widow of a man killed in the service of the com pany who did not contribute to the support of his wife.. It was shown that the dead man had gone to Johns town to work, leaving his wife in New York, but that he did not send for her or contribute any of his wages for her support. The facts that he did not establish a home and that the wife while enjoying legal righ.ts to support did not take enough interest to assert them are held to show that the wo man was not dependent. The board has also upheld the ref eree in granting compensation to Clara L. Murray, whose husband died following an injury in falling from a wagon while employed by Cunning ham & Murray, Philadelphia. It was found that the man was injured in attempting to get off a wagon and that the injury "accelerated a pre-existing condition of nephritis and was a con tributary cause of his death." It is held that there was not enough in the plea that the man was intoxicated to warrant a finding of fact by the referee. E. B. Dorsett in Charge of Co-operative Marketing 1 ' £&> . E. B. DORSETT E.
