Syllabus

<p>Wages as preferred claims — Limitations as to business removed.</p> <p>Under the law as it now stands touching preferred claims for wages all limitations as to the business of the employer and places of employment are removed as to the twenty-five classes intended to be benefited.</p> <p>Wages — Preferred claims — Labor clairhanis and execution creditors.</p> <p>Execution creditors, whose writs have produced the fund, have no priority to wage claimants; the only liens which are preserved as a preference are those of mortgages or judgments entered before the labor is performed, and this exemption is provided by section 4 of the original Act of April 9, 1872, P. L. 47.</p>
