* WYOMING. * * An act approved December 7, 1869, provided that any person in the employment of any railroad company who may be injured by any locomotive, car, or other rolling stock of said company, or by other property of said company, shall have his action for damages against said company the same as if he were not in the employ of said company, and no agreement to the contrary shall be admitted as testimony in behalf of said company:" and similar rights were guaranteed the heirs of a workman who died as a result of such injuries. But this act was not contained in the Revised Statutes of 1887, and it was expressly provided that all acts omitted from that revision were to be regarded as repealed. The Constitution of Wyoming contains the following prohibition of "contracting out: CONSTITUTION, ARTICLE 10.-"CORPORATIONS." SEC. 4. No law shall be enacted limiting the amount of damages to be recovered for causing the injury or death of any person. Any contract or agreement with any employee waiving any right to recover damages for causing the death or injury of any employee shall be void.
