Right of Railroad Employers to Recover for injuries Limited.

--In a recent case before the Superior Court at Worcester, Judge Lord presiding, in which certain parties, employees of the Norwich and Worcester Railroad Company, sued that company for damages for injuries sustained by a collision on the road, the court ruled that one person in the employ of the defendants could not maintain an action for injuries received through the want of care of other persons also in their employ, if the other persons were proper and suitable men for the railroad company to employ. The plaintiffs thereupon became nonsuited.
