delivered the opinion of the court.
*1574. Instructions, § 135*—when should he offered. Where a defendant fears that an instruction which informs the jury as to the charges in the declaration, without stating that those charges were denied by the defendant, is misleading, he can protect himself by offering an instruction to that effect.
5. Master and servant, § 206 * —when railroad engaged in interstate commerce liable for negligence of fellow-servant of employee. In an action for personal injuries sustained by a railroad employee while engaged in interstate commerce, where the plaintiff, while pulling a spike, was thrown from a bridge as a result of the alleged negligent act of a fellow-servant, and the plaintiff claimed that he did not assume the risk of the negligence of such fellow-servant, held that the defendant was not liable in the absence of affirmative showing that such fellow-servant was guilty of negligence which was the proximate cause of the injury.
