NEGROES ON STREET CARS IN PHILA-
DELPHIA.-A conductor kicked q
colored woman from a street car. in
Philadelphia. The woman's husband
brought an action against the railroad
company for damages. The judge
decided that the company had the
right to exclude negroes from their
cars, and the jury found for the de-
fendant. This throws Forney into a
passion. He says: We do not hest
tate to say that, at this time, and in
this country, such q decision is
scarcely less infamous than that rem
dered by the Supreme Court of the
United States in the bred Scott case.
