BLACKBOARD LAWS VALID
Supreme Court Reafirms It's Former
Decision Against the Railroads.
1t Means a Lot of Money Lost to the Corpora
tions-AnOther of the May Claims in Court
The Cadi Let Him Go.

The Supreme Court handed down its de-
cision In the celebrated blackboard rail-
road cases yesterday. and it was an Aft rma-
tion of the one made by 1t two years ago.
The General Assembly passed an act in 1889
making it compulsory for roads operating
in the State to post on q blackboard. at
each station. the time of arrival
and departure of trains. and
how much late. if at all. 1t
assessed a fine of $50 for each
violation of it. The railroads ignored it
pretty generally. and as the result. suits
were brought in Shelby and Greene coun-
ties to collect the fines attached for these
violations, which By that time amounted
to q considerable. There were 1S6 counts
in the Greene county bill. each amounting
to SIS and nearly q like number in the other.
The railroads. the Indiana & Illinois
Southern in Greene county and tso Pennsyl-
vanla in Shelby county won the suits in
the lower courts. IL was appe aled to the
Supreme Court. and resulted in a reversal
The railroads petitiOned for q reheariDg.

privilege of petitioning for another rehear-
ing. and they Will doubtless do SO.

for the railroads. 1t can be readily seen
how fast fines could accumulate, even dur
ing q lay, and the act has been In force
three years.
One of the May Claims Against the State.

day against the State of Indiana recalls

recover S15,UO alleged to be due as princi-
pal and interest of the amount due Edwin
May for furnishing the plans and specifi-
cations for the building of the Prison North
which provided for the use of q patent
10 ok invented by him. The amount of the
original allowance was So. coo and this,
were rendered, makes the additional
amount.
Edwin May. upon whose services the claim
Is based, came into prominence in this State
as the architect of the Capitol building.
The ambition of his life eliminated in this
work, and he lost every dollar he had saved
from former years of labor in the attempt
to complete his contract with the State,
and was afterward released from it By the
Legislature. and the work begun by him
was completed, with Adolph Scherer. men,
Der of the Board Of Public Works,
who was at that time an assistant
In Mays office. as supervising archi-
tect. May died in February of 1880,
