ASTORIA. Jan. 28.-The Asforian will
publish tomorrow morning the follow
ing interesting item of news:
II has come to the knowledge of the
Historian that another suit has been
brought against certain citizens Of As
toria in the State Circuit Court by for
mer residents Of this place. II will be
PEELED to leave here last July were A.
Gindsr and j. ]. Reilly, former men,
bers Of the Astoria police, and at the
time OF the fire here last July engaged
in the saloon business in this city.
Without entering into the merits of
the cass, IL 10 q matter Of fact that they
were driven ost Of Astoria. They now
bring suit at Portland in the State Cir
cult Court for Multnomah county 80 re-
cover $4,000 damages each from the
individual members of the vigilance
committee. These damages are stated
in the complaint 70 be the breaking M
Of the plaintiffs business, their inter
ests in Astoria, together with their be-
ing deprived Of their liberty by mem
bers OF the committee, consequent anx-
iety of mind. bodily suffering, etc.
1T Ii probable that the suit has been
brought In Nultnomah county instead
of ClatsSp county by reason Of the
plaintiffs being Of the opinion that their
chances for getting verdict in their
favor are better elsewhere than they
would be here, an opinion in which
everybody will be inclined to agree. In
the case of Boyle, whose suit was
brought IN the United States Circuit
Court. attendance on the part Of the
defendants was compulsory in the
Gases OF Msssrs. GiAder and Reilly, who
are American citizens, to make the suit
good, 1t il necessary that ths sheriff Of
Multnomah county shall serve papers
upon the defendants individually in
that county.
What effect this bit Of news will
have upon passenger travel between
here and Portland 10 as yet indefinite.
1t IL not likely though that the intelli-
Reucs will greatly augment Astoria
travel toward the Oregon metropolis"
