Headnote

Apleal from Trial Term, New York County. Ación by Isaac Slotnick against the New York lutchers’ Dressed Meat Company. From a udgment entered on a verdict, and from an orler denying its motion for a new trial, defendant appeals. Judgment and order reversed, and complaint dismissed. Theodore F. Kuper, of New York City, for appellant. Joseph Goldfein, of New York City, for respondent.

The evidence fails to show that the defendant was guilty of negligence, or that the accident happened because of any negligence or improper conduct of the foreman or superintendent. The judgment and order appealed from are therefore reversed, the finding that the defendant was guilty of negligence reversed, and the complaint dismissed, with costs. Order filed.
