Pass-Holders May Get Damages.

The question of liability on the part OF
railroads in cases of injury to persons rid
ing on a pass has been settled by the New
York court of appeals in the case of Ira
Porter, respondent, against the New York,
Lake Erie a. Western Railroad comppny,
appellant, appeal for judgment for the gem
erai term. second etartment, affirming a
Judgment for s., 1851 in favor of plaintiff.
The action was brought to recover for in
iuries received while riding on a train of
defendants cars in May, 1888. The defend
ants sought to avoid liability by alleging
that plaintiff was riding on a pass and that
its servants were not guilty Of negligence.
The court of appeal holds Chat the decision
of the general term awarding damages
should be sustained, and this practically
decides this question that railroads are
liable for accident to pass-holders.

With Heart Disease

NEW YORK, February l2-An act of
herolsm cost the life of Mr.. Simon Jo-

No. S94 Park-ave.
Two little girls were crossing Broad
way in front of the Herald building on

team attached to a carriage. Several
people saw the children's peril, but none
but Mr.. Joseph had the presence of
mind to act promptly.
He rushed through the maize Of We
hicles and grasping the reins of the
horses and exerting all his strength he
stopped them, Just IN time to prevent
the children being run over.
For months past Mr.. Joseph has been
suffering from disease of the heart.
and the effort that he made in stopping
the horses strained valve of the heart.
He tainted at the time, but soon re-
vived, and was taken home. He was
unable to go to his business on Friday
and Saturday, but was able to sit up on
the latter day. On Sunday he died.
Mr.. Joseph was real estate dealer, but

Ins Verdict.

The jury IN the Deyo forgery case
spent all hast night IN their jufy-room,
after celebrating all the day after
eleven O'Clock IN the morning. The
trial has been of unusual length and
was most hotly infested.
All duung this trial, and particularly
during the hush OF expectation and
anxiety after the jury had retired, the
prisoner and ms sweet little family
touched all hearts by their m0urnful
presence IN court. Mrs. Deyo is a fraii
and petite woman with three little
children clinging to her dress and one
infant IN her arms. The aCOnzed
anxiety of the fond wife was not eN-
ceeded by that of the man whom the
penitentlary seemed opening TO
receive. The utter ignorance OF even
the oldest of the children, who
Is II darling little Miss

10 the scene. The merry laugh OF the
children as they were petted by the
court officers had dismal ring import
ed by the circumstances, and 1t could
be seen that il pierced the fathers
heart. These things must have had
their effect upon the jury, and were
perhaps, designed 10 have. Yet de-
signed or undeslgned, he is cold
hearted man who could look uumoved
upon the prospect of breaking up a
