YEARS N THE COURTS
The Case of Mrs. Hamilton VS..
the Street Railway Company.
SIX YEARS OF LITIGATION
She Received . Verdict OF 10000 on
the First Trial. but q Mortgage
Was Put on the Railway
and She Must Wait.

Great Falls. May 6.-The Geographic
news Of this morning that
the case of Mrs. Lizzie Hamilton VS.. the
Boston & Great Falls Street Railway
company has been decided in the Unit
ed States circuit court Of appeals in
San Francisco. The case has been in
h courts for the past six years and
side. The circumstance leading to the
suit and those of the history of the suit
are al follows:
During the summer of 1892 the plant
IN. the wife Of the then sheriff of this
county. was a passenger on one of the
cars Of the street railway company. On
Ninth street north, near Third avenue.
the car collided with another through
h negligence of the employees of the
company n Mrs. Hamilton was
thrown to the ground. sustaining inter-
nal injuries. She brought suit in the
district court for $25. 900 damages. The
jury, after a trial lasting many days.
gave her a verdict for $40. 900. The street
railway company appealed the case to
the supreme court of the state. Mean
time h Massachusetts, Loan n Trust
company had obtained a mortgage on
thC BfopNits VI thC dbu w. ~.
Dickinson had been appointed receiver.
TIL mortgage amounted to $50. 900.
Then Mrs. Hamilton instituted a suit
in equity to enforce her judgment.
claiming that it was a lien upon the
property, taking precedence of the
mortgage.
The supreme court of Montana de-
cided that a judgment of $500 must
be accepted or a new trial granted. h

plaintiff. The suit in equity was trans
ferred, on motion of the defendant, to
the federal court for this district. and
there Judge Knowles decided that the
judgment took precedence of the mort
gage. Then the defendant appealed to
the circuit court of appeals, with the
result above stated, a reversal of the
judgment of the lower court. This
means that, while the judgment is
sound. it may be a few centuries before
it is collected, provided the railway re-
mains in the hands Of a receiver.

A NEWSPAPERS DurY.-The first
duty of a newspaper is to combat
falsehood, rascality, hypocrisy, social
wrongs and evildoers wherever they
can be found. The next thing to do
is to respect the sanctity of the home
and to reconize the rights of private
individuals SO long as they respect
the rights of others. The yellow
journal" is bound to 60 sooner or
later. The way to hasten its end is
to print newspapers that contain only
