A jim GROW" CAR CASE.
4 jacksonville COlOred Lawyer
Wants $3.50, 200 Damages.

Wants 100000 Damages.
In yesterdays Morning News appeared
a brief dispatch from Jacksonville, Fla,
to the effect that John Wallace had com
menced suit against the Savannah, Flor
ida and Western railway for some $4,000
damages, in three suits, of $4,000 each.
The suits are brought by John Wallace,
a colored lawyer of that city, Alice A.
Wallace, and Nena P. Wallace. a minor,
by her next friend, John Wallace.
Wallace alleges that he, his wife and
daughter were refused the right to ride in
a first class coach, from Jacksonville to
this city, in September, 1888, nearly two
years ago, though they had, he claims,
purchased first class tickets.
The plaintiffs alege in their declaration
that the company refused to permit them
to occupy the seats in the first class
coach. but compelled tnem under threat
of ejectment. to occupy seats in the
smoking car, an inferior coach and not
first class, although they were clean, de-
Gently clad and well behaved.
The plaintiffs allege also that they were
elected from the first class coach for no
other reason than that they were Of At
rican descent-people Of color.
They allege further that the accommo-
dations for which the defendant had
charged and received plaintiffs money
were first class and that the plaintiffs
were not permitted the use Of said frs
class accommodations, but were COM
PEELED by the employees Of the defendant
company TO accept inferior accommoda-
tons.
