So Engineer Grifiia Brings Suit Against
the West Shore Railroad.
A curious case OF alleged malicious
persecution is being tried in the Supreme
Court before Judge Lippincott and a
jury. The suit was brought by William
Griffin who had been an engineer On
the West Shore Railroad. against
that COMPANY. and nlso the New
York Central aud Hudson Rivec Rail-
road Company to recover damages;
for the alleged per secution. 1t appears
from the evids nee submitted That about
one year ago some person stole a quantity
of blackberry brandy from the train that
Grlfiu was engineer OF when the cars
reached Little Ferry station. Griffin was
suspected of being tho thief and when
| his Train reached Marlborough he was
banded q telegram from the superinten-
dent relieving him of his engine and
directing him to report In the superinten,
dent the following day.
Griffith ooeyed the order. and when he
| reported he was charged with the theft
of the brandy, aud. although he protested
that he was innocent. was arrested, in-
dicted and tried in the General Sessions.
The jury in the case acquitted Critic,
aud then the company took him back into
It's employ, keeping him for two or tire.
months. and then p~eremptorilY discharg-
ing him without assigning any cause for
such action.
Griffin alleges that the company refused
to give him a certificate of character and
that for that reason he has been unable
since then 10 obtain work. Griffin blames
the company for his condition and claims
that he is being prosecuted. Tue case
will not be completed tolav. John S.
