But the Case is Carried Higher on TN
Appeni-rierpe Damage Case.

Appehi-rierpe Damage Case.
The Superior Court jury in the case Of
Robert Rex VS.. the Pullman Palace Car
Company, yesterday afternoon gave the
plaintiff a verdict for S5,C0O 1t will be
remembered that Mr.. Rex was permG-
nently injured by being thrown through
pane of glass by shfter striking a car
ahead of that in which he was working.
Immediately upon the return of the vor-
dict Edward G. Bradford moved for new
trial and will file his reasons within four
days.
Then the Pierce damage case was re-.
sumed by the calling of DR.. Joseph r.
Spith, who said Pierce's injuries consist
OF sprained back and sore shin, In his
opinion the injured back is painful and in.
curable, and Pierce is unable to do heavy
manual labor. The wound on the shin,
the doctor said, was an Inflammation. 1t
gave evidences Of having been running
sore, although it has not been since be has
attended him. He thought it would net
got any better, although lie would not like
to say 1t would become worse. Pierce
wore bandages on the injured leg during
nights.
In the morning the handage would be-
come tight, and would have to be remov-
ed because of the swelling of the muscles,
The plaintiff here rested wher6lp6n Mr.,
Knowles asked for a n9n,sult on the
ground that by the plaintiffs testimony
he was guilty of contributory negligenc ce
by driving into q place which he knew
was dangerous. He also contended that
the hole in the street was an act of prov-
dence and not because of any fault of the
city. MIR. Cooper vigorously opposed the
granting of the motion, contending that
1t had been proven that the hole had been
in the street for years and that Pierce did
not know of the existence of the hole.
The Court refused to grant the nOn-suit
and Mr.. Knowles began his defense which
he outlined thus; Pierce was guilty of con-
tributory negligence and was driving
recklessly at the time of the accident. He
would further show that Pierce was driv-
ing wagon unfit for the best roads and
that lincoln street was in good condition
at the time. He would also show that
Pierc was warned, and at the time of the
accident the wagon was near the sidewalk
There was much room in the street.
Samuel Chambers, q Street and Sewer
director sworC that the hole was near the
curb.
George Cochran saw Pierce's wagon with
load sufficient for three horses pass
down Sixteenth street at q lively gait
Cochran warned Pierce of the danger in
turning the corner with heavy load nt
great speed Ile saw the wagon upset, but
there We're no stones near at the time.

man. who had accompanied him to Lex
ington, and who knows but little about
saddlers was allowed TO mount Denmark
and put him through his PAGES. To the as
constituent of both Mr.. Fleischman and
Mr. Straus, the horse acted as well with
the stranger on his back as he had done
when Mr. HARRISON bestrode him. and
after nearly an hours exhibition, Mr..
FIeischman aid he thought Denmark
would do for President to ride. and he
Immediately closed the trade at very
stiff figure
Mr.. HARRISON did not begin the educa-
ton of Denmark until last spring, as he
preferred TO allow him TO get his full
growth He developed into first-class
saddler so rapidly that his owner entered
him in many saddle rings at the fairs
throughout Kentucky and Missouri, and
he was uniformly successful in winning
first prize. He is a beautiful bright bay,
fine. clean-cut, bony head. large hazel
eyes. long, tapering ears, well-set in lis
head; beautiful neck. carried in absolutely
perfect saddle-horse form: high withers,
insuring a good seat to the rider; short
back and well coupled, indicating that he
can carry weight without firing; large
quarters, heavy tail, magnificendy car
RED when ir motion; large barrel, we'll
rounded, and perfect legs and feet. In his
entire formation he is a perfect model.
Denmark has been educated TO conform
to the gaits laid down by the National
Saddle Horse Breeders Association, name
~: running walk, rack-betteT known as
single footinG-trot and canter. He is so
well educated that he changes from one
gait To another at the word of command.
He excels at the rack, gait which is
very popular with the President, and or
which he spoke particularly TO Mr.. Fleisch-
man when he commissioned him to buy
the horse. At tie canter he is perfect, and
has been taught TO lead with either foot,
and change the lead at the word OF COM
mand. He needs neither whip nor spur,
as he will increase his speed from run
ming walk to rapid canter 10y the spoken
word. His back is SO well suited TO the
saddle that he can be ridden for days at "a
time, and yet no sign of saddlemarks can
he discerned on his back.
He is as docile as a lamb, and when
going at the highest rate of speed will
stop instantly at the word OF command.
He will stand perfectly still wherever
left He is well tempered, and is not
afraid of steam cars, electric cars or any
of the things which usually fTighten
horses. A hunter car ride him and shoot
q shotgun from his back, and lie never
flinches at the heavy fire. Denmark has
been greatly admired by the thousands
who have seen him in the show rings in
this State and in Missouri, and the Presi-
dent is to be congratulated on having
secured such a splendid animal to ride.

the superb saddle geldiDg purchased here
this week by Mr.. Charles Fleischman,
of Cincinnati, for President Mckinley, lis
Just five years old, stands fifteen and
three-QuaTteT hands high, and weighs
ll25 pounds. When Mr.. Fleischman ar
rived ia Lexington, he went Immediately
To his friend, MI. Gus Straus, the we'll
known turfman Of this city, and asked
him what he thought about Mr. Shelly

him to Mr.. Harbison's establishment, and

exhibited Denmark 10 the adhliring Mr..

the horse change his gaits so readily and
altogether show such ability as saddler.

TO show that the boxing matches, wnlch
for more than 100 years have been heid
TO be unlawful in England, differed in no
respect from those which have recently
taken place in this country, He said
that the description given by the English
iudces of the sports, which are prohlbited
by the common law, accurately fits the so
called glove contests of these DAYS,
Inasmuch as the men who managedthe
contests are not now within the Jurisdic-
ton of the court, Judge Sloan said he
would not ask the grand jury to find in
dictments, but he wanted his remarks TO
go out as notice to all these people that
exhibitions of this character are uniaw-
full. and in the future those who engage
in them will be punished for ass ault.

FRAUD UNEARTHED.
Big Counterfeiting Scheme Discovered in
Chicago Cellar.

Chicago. October a.-In a musty and
darkened cellar at 1S1 North sangamon
street lawyers, detectives and consta-
ables unearthed what they claim is one
of the largest liquor counterfelsing
schemes ever created in this country.
Liquor dealers of the world have been
working for over year to learn the
location of the pant After four hours
work, $4,000 in labels representing the
peading brands of liquor, bottled and
cases were found. The loss to the houor
dealers and manufacturers through the
counterfeit has been nearly s5OOOOO and
1t may reach even a higher figure. Five
big express wagons were backed up TO
the door of the building and they were
filled with the confscated goods and
taken in charge by Constable Eckert OF
Justice Whites court.
In the basement wonderful array Of
secret passages was found, leading in
all directions. Each one was separated
by a brick wall and arranged in such
a puzzling manner that a person unac-
quainted with the byways could easily
be lost The raldlng party comprised all
men. including attorneys for a number
OF leading liquor importers and distiners.
