who accompanied Mr.. Depew dropped the
valises he was carrying on the floor, hand
ed the famous railroad president big
bundle of papers. and, whipping out big
notebook. revealed the fact that he was a
stenographer. For an hour he never
raised his head from the book nor asked a
single question. His pencil moved with
regularity from one side of the page to the
other until the book was half filed with
notes.
AS for Mr.. Depew, he offered a picture
of energy, intellectually and health which
was vividly accumulated by the groups of
tagged, listless and somnolent men in the
same room. He sat perfectly erect with
his papers in one hand, while he occasion

head with the other, debating with indie
fatigable evenness and emphasis. The
play of bis features and the constantly al

an index of the character of the letters he

A Famous Railroad Case.

One of the most famous cases of re-
cent years was that of Maj. Harold
against the New York Elevated Rail
road company, arising opt of the mem
. orable catssss-zophe ut tho Forty second
street Junction. 1t was that accident
which led to the change in the plan of
the running of the road, and caused
the adoption of the shuttle trains now
in use. There was no question in that
case as to the responsibility of the COM
pany for the negligence of its servants
whereby the accident occurred. The
great legal fight occurred over the
amount of damages to be recovered,
and the case went from court to court
for years.
On the part of the major it was
claimed that he was a confirmed and
hopeless cripple. On the part of the
company it was claimed that the major
was Stimulating ailments for the pur-
pose of charging the damages, and
there was no end of conflicting expert
medical testimony The major finally
secured a big verdict. But the major
had another legal contest before he
settled up with the distinguished coun-
sci who won his case for him. Inter
