The numerous friends in this city and
elsewhere of Mr. NJ. c. Anderson will
learn with sorrow OF his death at the
Norfolk Protestant Hospital at S o'clock
yesterday morning, where he had been
under. treatment for nearly three
months for cancer Of the throat. Mr..
Anderson was first attacked with the
disease about four years ago. Two
yenrs ago he had an operation per-
formed in Richmond, which gave him
partial relief. But in February last
he was again troubled with the old
complaint, and went to the Johns Hop
klns Hospital in Baltimore. with the
hope that the excellent treatment of
that institution would make perIna-
nemt cure of the disease. Failing to get
the desired relief after remaining there
for several months, he returnd to Nor
folk and was sent to the Norfolk Pro-
testaut Hospital, where every atten-
ton was given him by his family and
those in charge, but in spite OF all ef-
forts to restore him to health he pass
ed away at the hour mentioned.
Mr.. Anderson had been n resident OF
this city for many years. being first in
the employ of the Southern Express
Company, and afterwards with the
Norfolk and Western Railway as bill
ing clerk. In October, 1890. he accept
ed position In the auditing depart
ment OF the Norfolk and Carolina Rail-
way, aud was 4 most competent and
efficient abstract clerk, filling the posi-
tion to the entire satisfaction of the
officials OF the road, until, by the rapid
spread of disease in his system, he was
compelled to give it up.

ners, and was greatly esteemed by all
| who knew him. He married the laugh-
| ter OF the late Colonel w. II. Casey, OF
Isle Of Wight county, who, with three
| children, survives him.
His remains were forwarded via the
Norfolk and Western train last night,
accompanied by relatives to his former
home in Nelson county for funeral and

Supreme Court Of the United States.

RAILWAY CROSSING WITH A
COMING TRAIN IN FULL VIEW,
AND HE COULD HAVE SEEN 1T
WHILE FORTY FEET FROM, THE
TRACK, BUT DID NOT LOOK, OR
TOOK THE CHANCE OF CROSS
ING AHEAD OF THE TRAIN, AND
WAS KILLED, HE WAS GUILTY
OF CONTRADICTORY NEGLI-
GENCE.
This was an action by the widow and
children OF Thomas ~. Freeman for
damages for the killing OF said Free
man by train OF the defendant. The
lower court gave Judgment for plain
tiffs, and defendant appealed.
The Court says:
The real question in the case was as
to the contributory negligence OF plain
tiff's interstate.
At the time OF the accident Freeman
was driving along the highway in a
farm wagon drawn by two horses in q
Sow trot. He was n man thirty years
of age. with no defect of eycsight or
hearing, T4ld was familiar with the
crossing.
The duty. OF person approaching O
railway crossing, whether driving or on
foot, to look and listen before crossing
the track. is SO elementary and has
been affirmed so many times by this
court, that a mere reference to the
cases of Chicago r. I. e r. r. Co. VS..
Houston, and Schoiicld vs.. Chicago NJ.
s. st. p. r. Co.. is a sufficient illustra-
ton Of the general rule.
If, in this case, we were to discard
the evidence of the three witnesses ell
tered, there would still remain the facts
that the deceased approached rail-
way crossing well known to him; that
the train was in full view: that, if inc
had used his senses, he could not have
failed to see it; and that, notwith-
standing this, the accident occurred
Judging from the common experience Of
mon. there can be but one plausible So
luton of the problem how the collision
occurred. He did not look; or IL he
looked. he did not heed the warning,
and took the chance of crossing the
track before the train could reach him
In either case he was clearly guilty Of
contpibutory negligence. Reversed.
