1Opinion of the Court

Kelby, J.:

The complaint was drawn so that it might be brought within the purview of the old Employers’ Liability Act, which was formerly section 200 et seq. of the Labor Law of 1909 (as amd. by Laws of 1910, chap. 352; now Employers’ Liability Law of 1921, § 2 et seq.) The complaint alleges the giving of a notice under that act, and it pleads the negligence of the defendant, its agents and servants, and one of the persons engaged in the service of the defendant, and intrusted with authority “ to direct, control or command ” the plaintiff; the latter words being the words of the statute.
