Al- ton for compensation for the death of her husband, employed by the Hopkins & Allen Arms company. On or about May 15, 1915, said John J. Alton left his employment with the respondent company, suffer- ing from what appeared at the time to be a complication. of illnesses, which to him appeared to be trace- able to his occupation, which was that of foreman of the barrel browning de- partment of the respondent company, which occupation he had followed for a number of years. He did not re- turn to work, and died on the Sth day of July, 1915, from chronic hypertro- Phy of the liver, complicated with pleurisy with effusion, according to the death certificate. A claim for compensation was made by the widow of said John J. Alton on the ground that the inhalation of various produced the diseased condition which resuilted in his death. It was agreed that the average weekly wage of the deceased was $25. The main facts connected with this case were agreed to with the single excéption of whether the death of Mr. Alton can be traced to the occupation in which he was engaged. A memorandum of decision is at- tached heretc and made a part of this finding. Considering all the evidence in this case, it is found that there is no con- nection between the cause of death and the occupation in which he was employed. Accordingly, the claim is hereby dismissed. Memorandum of Decision. The present case is one in which all the facts are agreed to with the ex- ception of whether or not the cause of death can be attributed to an in- jury arising out of and in the course ©of his employment. Mr. Alton was in charge of the browning department of the Hopkins & Allen Arms company, and had fol- lowed that line of occupation for some years in Norwich and other places. That the work is not a healthful oc cupation was testified to by the super- intendent of the plant, and all the par- ties at interest visited the department in question and had an opportunity to CompdnnlnnConmnneFoundNoCmBetm the Cause of John J. Alton’s Death and His Occupation at the Hopkins and Allen’s Arms Company. personally inspect that department of the plant. In the process of browning, there are various chemical ingredients used and in various proportions. During the process of browming, fumes are given off by these ingredients at times very strong, and it would appear that they might have a more or less dele- terious effect upon the system. The death certificate was signed by Charles C. Gildersleeve, M. D., and Lha cause of death was given as “hyper- '.rophy of liver, chroni and while a primary cause of death was given “la_grippe and pleurisy with effu- Sivn,” Dr. Gilderslesve stated that he considered that the primary cause of death was due to the chromic hyper- trophy of the liver, and the other cause of death was given at the sug- gestion of a physician In consuitation and that he did not believe that Mr. Alton* would have lived more than six months or a year at the longest with the hypertrophied condition of the liver as it was. From Dr. Gildersleeve's testimony it would appear that the pleurisy with effusion was a secondary condition due to the hyperirophied condition of the liver and pressure on the vascular structures. The point to be decided is thi Is there any connection between the car- cinoma of the liver, which was found in the pathological examination of Dr. Griswold and which was the cause of death of Mr. Alton, and the occupa- tion at which he worked. In his testimony regarding the va- rious ingredients used in the browning process and whether or not he could give any medical authorities which would tend to show that any of those ingredients were causative factors in the production of cirrhosis of the liver, Dr_ Gildersleeve stated that he had never heard of any cases caused b the inhalation of fumes from ingre- dlents such as used in this case. According to a recant decision of the supreme court of New Jersey in the case of Reimers vs. Proctor Pub- lishing comvuany, the claimant. in or- der to establish his claim, must estab- lish it by a fair preponderance of ev! derce, and under that ruling it is im- possible to find for the claimant when the attending physician cannot state that death was certainly caused by that accident, and the commissioner cannot infer that fact.
