Opinion

Per Curiam:

This was an action to recover for injuries received by an employee of a corporation through its alleged negligence. As to it the common-law rule concerning the master’s non-liability, except for that which is traceable to bimself, prevails. A demurrer to the plaintiff’s evidence was sustained, and we think rightly so. Negligence was not traced to the master.

The judgment of the court below is affirmed.
