Scott in passing upon a Pittsburgh com pensation claim In which questions of posting notices and subcontrac tors' liability were raised. j In the case of Galbralth vs. Penn 'sylvania Railroad Mr. Scott makes the ruling that "The right to instal ments of compensation on account of jan injury suffered In the lifetime of the injured employe and not collect ed by him are extinguished and that 1 there Is no right In his dependants to collect the same." 1 In the case of Chlsler vs. Evans foal and Coke Co.. Uniontown, it is held that dependants of a man killed while crossing a railroad track nec essary to cross when told to get his dinner bucket by his foreman are entitled to but that in Blouse vs. Liackawanna Railroad, Rcranton, the claimant is not en titled to compensation when he rode on cars of the railroad to reach a place where his dinner bucket had been left. It is held that the riding was "a matter of his own choice." This observation is made in Black va. Valley Camp Coal Co., Luzerne county: "While the living expenses of this family are considerable, we think that under the act we have no right to puss upon the private econ omies of claimants, but are to accept the living conditions of the family as presented in the evidence," A new hearing is granted in the case of Ury vs. Mason & Hangar, Newville.
