Damages Against the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company.
[Dy telegraph to Ihe IisnaIch.


PHILADELPHIA, May 1G.-ln the Court OF
Common Pleas to-day the jury in the case
of Mark Spicker against the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company gave a verdictin favor
OF the plaintiff for $4,000. Spicker, who
Is travelling salesman, took passage i'm
November, 1881, from this city for Will
Transport, and presented to the conductor
the return slip OF an excursion ticket from
Williamsport to Philadelphia. The con-
duetor refused TO accept the ticket, and
elected Spicker in the open country on the
Northern Central railroad above Harrisburg
in the midst Of a drenching rain. The
company claimed in defence that the ticket
presented had been purchased two years
before. and that the company had eudea-
vored 20 call in such tickets by extensive
advertising. The judge charged the jury
that the election under the circumstances
was an outrage, and that the question of the
liability of the company was the only one
for their consideration.

New ORLEANS. May l6.-The Picoypne
to-day published an article in confirmation
az the charges il made on May I'd concerning
the oyer-issue OF scrip under the McEncry
contract. The statement then made was
that according 60 the official record fur
nishcd by the Commissioner OF the United
States Land Office az Washington 15s, 527
acres az swamp land had been approved 20
the State Of Louisana, and as McEnery
could only ask for one ball OF this area in
scrip, the statement by the Governor that
scrip for 1921 acres had bccu issued
showed that even the hard terms Of the
contract with John McEnery had not been
complied with.
Governor McEnery, in second letter.
claimed that the PicdyRe had omitted
two lists OF land--one OF 6,620 acres, and
the other OF 3s.2G7 acres-in the list Of
lands approved. The Commissioner Of
the United States Land Office now ccrti-
ties that these two tracts OF land were ap-
nroyed hy Secretary Carl Schurz in 1877,
or thrcc wears before The date Of the Me-
Emery contract. Yet on these approyals
scrip for 1900 acres was issued 70 John
McEnery. and this was the first issue under
the contract. The Picdgme denounces
this raid upon the public domain in severe
terms. and publishes documentary evil
dence Of its position.
