#### Albert Wacholz, Appellant, v. Homewood Press et al., Appellees.

Gen. No. 20,879.

(Not to be reported in full.)

Appeal from the Circuit Court of Cook county; the Hon. Adelor J. Petit, Judge, presiding.

Heard in the Branch Appellate Court at the October term, 1914.

Affirmed.

Opinion filed December 21, 1915.

*636Abstract of the Decision.

1. Appeal and error, § 471 * —when objection to cross-examination insufficient to preserve ground for review. A general objection to a cross-examination not made on the specific ground that the cross-examination objected to was improper will not preserve the point urged for review.

2. Masted and servant, § 699 * —when evidence to sustain finding of contributory negligence. In an action by a servant against the master to recover for personal injuries sustained while unloading boxes from a wagon, a verdict finding plaintiff guilty of contributory negligence held not manifestly against the weight of the evidence.

Statement of the Case.

Action by Albert Wacholz, plaintiff, against the Homewood Press, a corporation, and George H. Cotter, trading as Cotter Teaming Company, defendants, in the Circuit Court of Cook county, to recover for personal injuries sustained while employed by der fendant Cotter. From a judgment for defendants, plaintiff appeals.

. It appeared that plaintiff was working near a shipping platform on which were boxes containing paper, and the charges mainly relied on were (1) that a wagon belonging to the defendant Cotter was negligently backed up to the platform against one of the boxes causing one to fall on plaintiff and injure him; and (2) that his foreman had ordered him to assist in removing the boxes against his protest that there was danger under the circumstances in so doing.

Litzinger, McGurn & Reid, for appellant.

Henry B. Bale, Rose, Symmes, & Kirkland and Charles F. Vogel, for appellees.
