    Master and servant — Master’s liability for injuries to servant —Weight and sufficiency of evidence — Negligence on part of master—Facts that do not imply negligence.
    That a winch, used in unloading a vessel, reversed while defendants’ employee was pulling in rope over one of the drums and caused the rope to run the opposite way, whereby the servant went over the winch and struck the hatch comb, may prove the fact of injury, but it shows no violation of the employers’ legal obligation to the servant.
    Appeal by the defendants from a judgment in favor of the plaintiff, rendered in the Municipal Court of the city of New York, ninth district, borough of Manhattan.
    James B. Henney, for appellants.
    Charles Swanson, for respondent.
   Per Curiam.

Present: Gildersleeve, MacLean and Seabury, JJ.

Judgment reversed and new trial ordered, with costs to appellants to abide event.
