General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.

Standard Oil Co. v. Anderson No. 58 Argued January 7, 1909 Decided February 1, 1909 212 U.S. 215
CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES CIRCUIT
COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SECOND CIRCUIT
Syllabus
One in the general service of another may be so transferred to the service of a third person as to become the latter’s servant, with all the legal consequences of the new relation; but to change the relation and relieve the master requires more than the mere fact that the servant is sent to do work pointed out by such third party who has made a bargain with the master for his services.
A winchman employed by the person furnishing the hoisting power to a master stevedore for loading a vessel held to remain that person’s servant notwithstanding the hoisting signals were given by the stevedore’s foreman and not to be a fellow servant of an employee of the stevedore who was injured by his negligence.
152 F. 166 affirmed.
The facts are stated in the opinion.
