1Opinion of the Court
SIBLEY, Circuit Judge.
Under usual proceedings, James M. Jones recovered compensation as for a temporary disability for an injury alleged to have been received while employed in Texas as an automobile mechanic by Lone Star Gasoline Company, Hartford Accident & Indemnity Company being the insurer. On the ground that Jones was shown to be suffering from an occupational disease rather than from an injury within the Texas Compensation Act (Vernon’s Ann.Civ.St.Tex. art. 8306 et seq.), a peremptory instruction against recovery was asked, and the refusal to give it is the sole assigned error.
