A CURIOUS CASE.
Mrs. Doolin Against the
Omnibus Railroad.
Defense to Move to VaCate the Ver-
dict Because of the Birth of
Child.

On October last, Mary j. Doolin re-
covered verdict against the Omnibus
Gable Company for $4,000. The amount
recovered at the time appeared excessive,
but those acquainted with the character of
the injuries sustained by the plaintiff
we've not at all surprised.
On November II, 1891, she boarded one
of the horsecars of the Omnibus Cable
Company, running between San Bruno
road and Railroad avenue, intending 10
come to the city. After riding few hun
dred feet from her home, at that time
situated on Fifteenth avenue. the driver
of the horsecar had an alteration with the
driver of a team coming in an opposite
direction. During the dispute, through
the carelessness of the driver OF the horse
ear. the horses pulled the car off the track
and down an mbankment Mrs. Doolin
received a severe conclusion of the spine
and from that day to this she has been
half of the time confined to her bed,
aud all of the time confined to her
house. Prior to that time she
was a strong athletic woman. Her in
juries, however. completely destroyed her
health, and from a strong robust woman
she became confirmed invalid. A greater
portion OF the time she has suffered excru-
ciating pains resulting from spinal concus-
sion.
On February s, 1892, she and her hus-
band brought an action against the Omni-
bus Cable Company 20 recover $4,000
damages. In the latter part of 1891 ply.
sican employed by the railroad company
made an examination of her body, and on
May 8. 1893. Doctors William II. Mays, c.
III. Kenyon and w. w. Kerr made a
thorough examination of her person on
behalf OF the railroad. She was willing at
ali times to submit herself to an examin-
alton, little realizing that any doctor would
assert that her physical condition was due
TO anv cause other than the accident. At
the trial, however, the doctors employed
by the railroad comp ny, 10 the surprise
of the plaintiff and all others familiar
with the facts of the case, testified that her
condition was due solely to an ovarian
tumor. Her own physicians, no ever, con-
tended that her condition was due entirely
to the injuries received on November II.
1891. and, even if any tumor did
exist in her body, none of the
symptoms manifested by her could be
ascribed to ii. The railroad doctors per.
sisteDtly maintained that tie only trouble
with Mrs. DoOlin was the mere presence of
the ovarian tuEOr. which they claimed to
have discovered at their examination in
May, 1888. Medical works were produced
and medical testimony offered on behalf of
plaintiff to show that an ovarian tumor. or
any tumor whatever peculiar to women,
could not produce the symptoms or any
symptom manifested by Mrs. DoolIn dur
ing her long illness.
Soon after the rendition of the verdict
Mrs. Doolin gave birth to a still-born
child. which apparently had been dead for
quite period. Eminent physicians say
that the death Of the child was due to the
extremely delicate condition of the spine
and nerves of the plaintiff, superinduced
by the injuries received, and that no

Wheelmen Hold a Very Pleasant
Entertainment.

The Olympic wheelmen gave their first
smoker last evening, and more enjoyable
evenings entertainment could not have
been desired by the most fastidious of the
riders present.
Between puffs of club smoke which
waited toward the ceiling of the cOmpart-
ment in which ''the smoker" was held,
many a good roadster" joke was told and
many voice was heard singing the old
songs. which brought pleasant recollec-
tions of the good old wheeling days OF the
past 10 those present. Music was quite a
feature of the programme. and the sweet
strains of the violin and guitar was evi-

wheelmen were musical artists of no small
ability. Among the invited guests were
representatives OF the theatrical profess
sion, who added materially to the success
of the Olympic Cluh smoker.
