had been taken from Mrs. Ferris and
placed with Miss Kate Stopp, a nurse
living at 58 East Eleventh street, where
it is now said to be receiving proper

charged with neglect to provide proper

VERDICT TOO LARGE

so JUDGE KELLY BELIEVES.
COURTS HAVE DECIDED THAT
THERE is LIMIT IN SUCH
CASES.
DGE KELLY BELIEVES.
Great Northern Gets New Trial
Unless Plaintiff Accepts "a Cut of
5000.

Judge Kelly filed an order yesterday
in the case Of John McCaffery against
the Great Northern Railway company,
requiring the plaintiff to either remit
the sum of $500 from a verdict amount
ing to $1,275 in his favor, or else submit
to new trial Of the action. McCaffery
sued the railroad company for damages
by reason of the action of one of it's
conductors in putting plaintiff off
train. Judge Kelly held that the YER
dict is clearly excessive and cannot be
permitted to stand. In his memoran-
dunn, Judge Kelly says:
In cases Of this kind it is difficult
to determine what sum should be al
lowed as compensation. In Finch
VS.. N. P. r. K. company and Mclean
vs.. c. st. P NJ & O. Ry. company,
the supreme court intimates that $3.50
is probably the limit in cases like these.
Bnt this case is distinguishable in the
facts. There the conductor acted in
perfect good faith. in a quiet, gentle
manly manner, and was clearly justi-
fed by the company's rules. Here, by
the admitted facts. the conductor be-
gan At Minot by dishonoring the trans
which clearly entitled him to ride some
miles east of Tower, and which bore on
it marks to indicate that if properly
punched" it should read to Devils
Lake. This card was punched in
manner ineligible only to railroad
men, and the plaintiff was guilty of no
negligence in taking it. The conductor
knew that the plaintiff was without
money. He had Wrongfully compelled
him to pay $1.75 out OF the $2.00 he had
for transportation from Minot 70
Tower. He put him off in the presence
of fellow passengers at Tower seventy
six miles away from his destination,
with threat of force, at ? o'clock in the
mOrning, from g heated car into
cold, blustery night. Under such
circumstances $500 is not excessive as
compensatory damages.
