terday rendered by jury in the United States Cir
cult Court, against John A. Washington ct al, Of
Virginia, in favor of Mahlon d. Ogden, trustee of
the Chicago Land Company.
The suit brought to recover the amount of
the first payment on contract for S65. 800 the
price to be paid for tractof land, known as the
John S. Wright tract, on the North branch. The
contract was executed about the middle of last
summer anc stipulated for the payment of S35, 900
three years. Upon the payment of the S35 900 a
deed was to be executed to Mr.. Washington by
the land company, and certain securities by him
TO TO them. Some misunderstanding grew up as to
the nature of these securities, and the money was
not paid. The defence was based upon the oronnd
that the securities demanded were not in accord
ance with the contract; but it appeared in eyi-
dence that Mr.. Ogden proposed that Mr.. Washing
ION snoaLd make out the papers himself, in accord
