VERDICT FOR $4OO.
Given p. w. BOwes Against the

His Horse Rendered Worth ess by De-

PatriokW. Bowes was today given a ver-
dict bm a jury in Jndge Douglas court
for S4oo against the City of providencs for
negligence in permitting Vinton street
to be in such condition that the plaintiff q
horse was injured so badly that It was
practically worthless. Mr.. Bowes' attor-
ney, John W. hogan, had brought suit
for just 500 and claimed this was fair
sum for the horse. City Solicitor Colwell
told about the decline in the value OF
horse flesh and thought tho price fixed
rather large. No defence was offered on
the part Of the city, which will lose
nothing by the verdict ss the Prov idence
Gas Company had made the bad place In
the highway by leaving an iron cover
protruding on the road bed. and is re-
sponsible to the City. Employees Of the

6. w. X. Allen, counsel for Mrs. Whit
ford, said all the pleadinas in the case
had been long ago and he could not IN
derstand why they were now referred u.
He further said that there was no account
filed by the executors to show they had
paid out anv of Wanton Nhittcrd's es-
tate. The new evidence offered was only
additional evidence to that offered by the
executors at the previous trial. and was
nrrelv cumulative. Mr.. Allen argued
that Mrs. Whitford had admtted her hus-
band gave her $500 in his life time but
had always denied she ever received the
legacy or took the money from the
drawer. The executors of the estate had
had. Mr. Allen said. Mrs Whitford nut
in jail and charged with the wrongful
taking of bonds amounting to 5000.
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1898-01-31

John j. Arnold, counsel for the execu-
tors, claimed that tho verdict was wrong
as it was not shown that the estate left
ny Whitford had not all been administered
upon and that there never was demand
for the legacy before suit wss brought,
which should be done according to the
authorities. In support Of the claim OF
one and important evidence Mr.. Arnold
read the affidavit of two uisinterested per-
not know of the applicants knowledge OF
the case. Main points Of the affidavit were
that Mrs. Wbitford had told them she had
received her legacy and also had bonds
that Mr. Whitford had given her before
his death.
