MURRAY HAS WON HIS SUIT
JURY YRENDERED VERDLCTAGATNST
 RAILRO1D COMPANY.

Will Recover Five Hundred Dollars Dam
 ages From the Lehigh Valley Company
 Stevens Also Wona Verdict For One Hun
 dred and Twenty five Dollars.
 Tn the superior court, civil side, late yesterday afternoon the jury which has been hearing the suit of Joseph H. Mur- ray against the Lehigh Valley Railway company rendered a verdict for the plaintiff to recover $500 damages and his costs.
 It will be remembered that Murray claimed damages for injuries received by jumping from train in December, 1893. The passenger train on which Murray was riding was in charge of a crew of non-union men, While lm- mediately in the rear and running on the same track was a freight train manned by union men. Owing to the feelings between the two classes Mur- ray alleged that the freight train at tempted to collide with the passenger train and that when the collision seemed to him inevitable he jumped. Murray fell into a pond and was more or less injured, hence the suit for damages.
 In the common pleas court, civil side, yesterday afternoon the suit brought by Marshall D. Stevens against Michael Kelly, jr., both of Guilford. was taken up and disposed of Stevens sued Kelly to recover $1,OOO damages for being knocked down and run over by one of Kelly's teams. The jury after a brief deliberation rendered a verdict for the plaintiff to recover $125 and costs.
