REED CASE CLOSED.
Attorney Henderson Makes a Bitter
Attack on the Plaintiffs.


Macon, Ga, May A.-The arguments in
the Roland Reed case were concluded to-
day. Attorney Henderson, counsel for the
Southern, made a particular caustic
speech, almost personally attacking the
integrity of the plaintiffs in
their suit for damages. He
said that the suit was a fraud. that ap-
pealed to high heaven for exposure. The
bitter references to Miss Rush and Mr..
Reed were painful to them and all others
in the court room.
Col. Glenn in reply made a powerful ar
gument for his clients and repealed the
unjust imputations made by the defend
ants counsel. He closed by asking a YER
dict of $4,000 for Mrs. Myers, 5000 for
Miss Rush and $500 for Mr.. Reed.
Judge Speer delivered a lengthy charge
to the jury, covering every point in the
case. He concluded his charge by saying
the defendants rely upon two grounds for
a verdict in their favor, one being that
the plaintiffs were not injured, and the
other that if they were injured it was
not through fault or negligence on their
part. The case was given to the jury at
o'clock, and at late hour no verdict
had been reached. The verdict will be
sealed and opened in court tomorrow
morning.
