rested on the arrival Of the train IN this
city ON the charge by the railroad Company
of unruly conduct on the tram and were

point beyond the jurisdiction of the court.
The compliments alleged that they were
rudely and roughly treated by the con-
ductor of the train, and therefore bring
suit for damages, as above stated. lhey
have engaged Messrs. Alexander Hamll-
