<p>
 Plaintiff, an injured employee of an interstate common carrier by rail, sued for personal injury, alleging that he was employed in interstate commerce, and stating a good cause of action under the Federal Employers' Liability Act, if so employed, and, if not, under the state law; the defendant asked for an instruction that the proof did not show that the injury occurred in interstate commerce, which the court gave, and then, over defendant's objection, treated the allegation to that effect as eliminated from the declaration and submitted the case to the jury as one under the state law, and plaintiff

<p>
 MR. JUSTICE VAN DEVANTER delivered the opinion of the Court.
 </p>
<p>
 This was an action against a railroad company to recover for a personal injury sustained by the plaintiff through the negligence of the company while he was employed as a switchman in its railroad yard in Cook County, Illinois. The action was brought in the superior court of that county, and a trial to the court and a jury resulted in a verdict and judgment for the plaintiff. The judgment was affirmed by the appellate court for that district (180 Ill.App. 511), which was the highest court of the state in which a decision of the case could be had, and this writ of error was then sued out by the company. By a motion to dismiss the writ, our jurisdiction to review the judgment is challenged. Shortly stated, the facts bearing upon the disposition of the motion are these:
 </p>
<p>
 The plaintiff's declaration alleged that the injury occurred while the defendant was engaged, and while the plaintiff was employed by it, in interstate commerce. The
 </p>
<p>
<a class="page-number" id="89">
 Page 234 U. S. 89
 </a>
</p>
<p>
 other allegations were such that, with that one, they stated a good cause of action under the Federal Employers' Liability Act, April 22, 1908, 35 Stat. 65, c. 149, and, without it, they stated a good cause of action under the common law prevailing in the state. There was a plea of not guilty, and upon the trial, the proof failing to show that the injury occurred in interstate commerce, the court, at the defendant's request, instructed the jury that the Federal Employers' Liability Act had no application to the case. Then, over the defendant's objection, the court treated the allegation respecting interstate commerce as eliminated, and submitted the case to the jury as one controlled by the common law prevailing in the state. The plaintiff recovered under that law. In the appellate court, the defendant contended that, even though the allegation that the injury occurred in interstate commerce proved unwarranted, the declaration could not be treated, consistently with the federal act, as affording any basis for a recovery under the law of the state, common or statutory. But the court held otherwise, and sustained the recovery under the state law. Whether that ruling operated as a denial of a right or immunity to which the defendant was entitled under the federal act is the question, and the only question, sought to be presented by the assignments of error.
 </p>
<p>
 Had the injury occurred in interstate commerce, as was alleged, the federal act undoubtedly would have been controlling, and a recovery could not have been had under the common or statute law of the state; in other words, the federal act would have been exclusive in its operation, not merely cumulative.

 . That the injury did occur outside of interstate commerce was declared in the court's instruction to the jury, and the defendant, having requested the instruction, is bound by it. It therefore must be taken as settled that the right of recovery arose under the state law.
 </p>
<p>
 The plaintiff asserted only one right to recover for the injury, and, in the nature of things, he could have but one. Whether it arose under the federal act or under the state law, it was equally cognizable in the state court, and had it been presented in an alternative way in separate counts, one containing and another omitting the allegation that the injury occurred in interstate commerce, the propriety of proceeding to a judgment under the latter count, after it appeared that the first could not be sustained, doubtless would have been freely conceded. Certainly nothing in the federal act would have been in the way.
 </p>
<p>
 Instead of presenting his case in an alternative way, the plaintiff so stated it as to indicate that he was claiming only under the federal act. And when the proofs demonstrated that the injury arose outside of interstate commerce, and therefore that no recovery could be had under the federal act, the court was confronted with the question whether the declaration could be amended, or regarded as amended, to conform to the proofs. Holding that this could be done, the court treated the mistaken allegation that the injury occurred in interstate commerce as eliminated. Therein the court merely gave effect to a rule of local practice, the application of which was not in anywise in contravention of the federal act.

 </p>
<p>
 It follows that the contention that the defendant was denied a right or immunity to which it was entitled under

<p>

 </p>
<p>
 As it is not claimed that, by reason of the shifting from one law to the other, the defendant was cut off from presenting any defense which was open only under the latter, or that the course taken by the plaintiff deprived the defendant of a right of removal otherwise existing, we intimate no opinion in either connection.

<p>
 MR. JUSTICE VAN DEVANTER delivered the opinion of the Court.
 </p>
<p>
 This was an action against a railroad company to recover for a personal injury sustained by the plaintiff through the negligence of the company while he was employed as a switchman in its railroad yard in Cook County, Illinois. The action was brought in the superior court of that county, and a trial to the court and a jury resulted in a verdict and judgment for the plaintiff. The judgment was affirmed by the appellate court for that district (180 Ill.App. 511), which was the highest court of the state in which a decision of the case could be had, and this writ of error was then sued out by the company. By a motion to dismiss the writ, our jurisdiction to review the judgment is challenged. Shortly stated, the facts bearing upon the disposition of the motion are these:
 </p>
<p>
 The plaintiff's declaration alleged that the injury occurred while the defendant was engaged, and while the plaintiff was employed by it, in interstate commerce. The
 </p>
<p>
<a class="page-number" id="89">
 Page 234 U. S. 89
 </a>
</p>
<p>
 other allegations were such that, with that one, they stated a good cause of action under the Federal Employers' Liability Act, April 22, 1908, 35 Stat. 65, c. 149, and, without it, they stated a good cause of action under the common law prevailing in the state. There was a plea of not guilty, and upon the trial, the proof failing to show that the injury occurred in interstate commerce, the court, at the defendant's request, instructed the jury that the Federal Employers' Liability Act had no application to the case. Then, over the defendant's objection, the court treated the allegation respecting interstate commerce as eliminated, and submitted the case to the jury as one controlled by the common law prevailing in the state. The plaintiff recovered under that law. In the appellate court, the defendant contended that, even though the allegation that the injury occurred in interstate commerce proved unwarranted, the declaration could not be treated, consistently with the federal act, as affording any basis for a recovery under the law of the state, common or statutory. But the court held otherwise, and sustained the recovery under the state law. Whether that ruling operated as a denial of a right or immunity to which the defendant was entitled under the federal act is the question, and the only question, sought to be presented by the assignments of error.
 </p>
<p>
 Had the injury occurred in interstate commerce, as was alleged, the federal act undoubtedly would have been controlling, and a recovery could not have been had under the common or statute law of the state; in other words, the federal act would have been exclusive in its operation, not merely cumulative.

</span>
 . That the injury did occur outside of interstate commerce was declared in the court's instruction to the jury, and the defendant, having requested the instruction, is bound by it. It therefore must be taken as settled that the right of recovery arose under the state law.
 </p>
<p>
 The plaintiff asserted only one right to recover for the injury, and, in the nature of things, he could have but one. Whether it arose under the federal act or under the state law, it was equally cognizable in the state court, and had it been presented in an alternative way in separate counts, one containing and another omitting the allegation that the injury occurred in interstate commerce, the propriety of proceeding to a judgment under the latter count, after it appeared that the first could not be sustained, doubtless would have been freely conceded. Certainly nothing in the federal act would have been in the way.
 </p>
<p>
 Instead of presenting his case in an alternative way, the plaintiff so stated it as to indicate that he was claiming only under the federal act. And when the proofs demonstrated that the injury arose outside of interstate commerce, and therefore that no recovery could be had under the federal act, the court was confronted with the question whether the declaration could be amended, or regarded as amended, to conform to the proofs. Holding that this could be done, the court treated the mistaken allegation that the injury occurred in interstate commerce as eliminated. Therein the court merely gave effect to a rule of local practice, the application of which was not in anywise in contravention of the federal act.

 . That the injury did occur outside of interstate commerce was declared in the court's instruction to the jury, and the defendant, having requested the instruction, is bound by it. It therefore must be taken as settled that the right of recovery arose under the state law.
 </p>
<p>
 The plaintiff asserted only one right to recover for the injury, and, in the nature of things, he could have but one. Whether it arose under the federal act or under the state law, it was equally cognizable in the state court, and had it been presented in an alternative way in separate counts, one containing and another omitting the allegation that the injury occurred in interstate commerce, the propriety of proceeding to a judgment under the latter count, after it appeared that the first could not be sustained, doubtless would have been freely conceded. Certainly nothing in the federal act would have been in the way.
 </p>
<p>
 Instead of presenting his case in an alternative way, the plaintiff so stated it as to indicate that he was claiming only under the federal act. And when the proofs demonstrated that the injury arose outside of interstate commerce, and therefore that no recovery could be had under the federal act, the court was confronted with the question whether the declaration could be amended, or regarded as amended, to conform to the proofs. Holding that this could be done, the court treated the mistaken allegation that the injury occurred in interstate commerce as eliminated. Therein the court merely gave effect to a rule of local practice, the application of which was not in anywise in contravention of the federal act.

 As it is not claimed that, by reason of the shifting from one law to the other, the defendant was cut off from presenting any defense which was open only under the latter, or that the course taken by the plaintiff deprived the defendant of a right of removal otherwise existing, we intimate no opinion in either connection.
