BARR WINS A POINT.
The Demurrers in the Plate Glass Case
OverruIed-A Stakeholder is Permitted

The Demurrers in the Plate Glass Case
OverruIed-A srockhOIder is Permitted
TO Sue a Corporation.
In the United States Circuit Court yesterday
an important decision was rendered on the de-
murrers of the defendants in the case OF
Samuel F. Barr VS.. the Pittsburg Plate Glass
Company. 1t will be remembered that Samuel
F. Barr is stockholder in the plate glass COM
pany. He filed a bill in equity against the
company charging the directors with con-
spiracy in building two other plants and then
selling them to the plate glass company at
price exceeding their value.
The defendants demurred on the ground that
a stockholder could not sue corporation OF
which he was a member, except through the
Board OF Directors; but as the directors In the
case were interested parties, Mr.. Barr made
the allegations in his own name, and yesterday
the Circuit Court decided that he had r1ght
to do so. The decision is an important one.
bearing on the definition of stockholders
rights generally. Sci schoyer, 8: b ScnoysFF tF
and Messrs. Watson and Scott for defendants
The decision follows:
In SO far at least as the bill relateslto the
Ford CITY works it is not founded, as the de-
murrers assume upon right of action belonging
solely to the corporation defendant: but 1t is
really based the plaintiffs individual rights.
The injury here complained of directly anects
the plaintiff personally, and he seeks the pro
tecting power of the court against the alleged
fraud Of the governing Board of Directors OF
the corporation and another stockholder, who,
in violation of the plaintiffs rights. are about
to proceed to do an unlawful act which Will de-
stroy or seriously impair the value of property
in which the plaintiff has an interest. No one
outside of the corporation has any concern In
the controversy, nor is any outsider here
sued. The corporation itself is a real defend
ant the bill praying for an injunction to restrain
it from consummating the alleged fraudu-
lent transaction. The bill alleges not only that
all the directors are acting in their own inter
ests and in fraud of the rights of the plaintiff,
but also that they and their co-spirator flour
defendant herein) together hold seven-tenths
of the stock of the corporation, and further
that they have procured vote of the stock
holders authorizing them to carry out the con.
templated fraudulent project in view, then, OF
these allegations, which for the present we
must accept as true, it would be most unreas-
enable to defeat the plaintiffs suit, beceuse the
bill does not show previous effort on his part
to obtain redress within the corporation by an
appeal for remedial action to the directors or
stockholders. The -demarrers must be over
ruled with leave to the defendants to answer
the bill within 80 days.

Sneezinq Catarrh.

The distressing sneeze, sneeze, sneeze, the
acrld, watery discharges from the eyes and nose,
the painful Inflammation extending to the
throat. the swelling of the mucous lining, caus-
ing choking sensations, cough, ringing noises in
the head and splitting headaches-how familiar
these symptoms are to thousands who suffer
periodically from head colds or influenza, and
who live IN ignorance of the fact that single
application of SANFoRD's RADICAL CURE FOR
CATARRH will afford instantaneous relief.
But this treatment in cases of simple Catarrh
gives but faint idea of what this remedy will
do in the chronic forms, where the breathing is
obstructed by choking, putrid mucus accumu-
lations, the hearing affected, smell and taste
gone throat liberated and hacking cough grad
ually fastening itself upon ths debilitated sys-
TEN. Then it is that the marvellous curative
power of fSANFoRD'S RADICAL CURE manifests
itself in instantaneous and grateful relief. Cure

Testimony For and Against the Dam-The
Jury is Out.
The Sawmil Run dam case against ]. W.
Friend, Theodore Wood and others, was con-
tinued before Judge Magee yesterday. The
defense placed Colonel T. P. Roberts, Mr..
Wainwright, Mr.. Ediburn and other expert
civil engineers on the stand to show that the
building of the dam was not the cause of the
clogging up of sewers, ETC., but on
the contrary, had a good effect on
them as an outlet. Mr.. Theodore Wood
testified that the property all along the run, in
Guiding the run itself, as far back as the Main
street Sewer, was the private property of the
Wood estate, and the city had never been
granted the right to use it as an outlet for out
houses, etc.
The case was then argued by Mr.. Knox for
the defense and Major Moreland for the prose-
cution. Judge Magee then charged the jury.
The Jury is still out

Danks Ended I'm Smoke.
The suit of Thomas Blashford against the
Rev. Colonel John a. Danks for damages fol
SANDER, was called for trial yesterday before
Judge Ewing.
The suit was based on the already famous
letters written by Colonel Danks to Mr.. Blash'
ford concerning the troubles between the two
and for which Colonel Danks was disciplined by
the Pittsburg NJ. E. Conference Messrs. Bird
and McKelvey appeared as attorneys for Mr..
Blashford and c. F. MeKenna for Colonel
Danks.
A jury was called, but before any testimony
was taken the plea was put in that the terms
which we're used and were alleged to be SIAN
derous, and for which damages were claimed,
were not actionable The terms referred to
were ''scoundrel." ''blackleg." etc. Judge
Ewing appeared to concur with that view, but
before anything further was done the plaintiff
took non-suit. This ended the case.
