Yesterday in the circuit court tho
declaration in the suit for 100000 dam
ages brought by Or. S. K HIssom
against his father, James r. Hissom, Of
the Island, was entered by the plains
tins attorneys Messrs. w. P. Hubbard
and s. G. Smith. The suit was to have
been entered some time since, and as all
newspaper readers will know is another
chapter in the litigation between father
and son, which came before the public
prominently when DR.. Hissom was ar
rested and tried on an insanity charge,
preferred by his father.
There was an effort to compromise for
$4,000 before the damage suit was in
stituted, 1t is said, but failed Of effect.
The declaration stlpulates on what
grounds young Hlssom claims 100000
damages, and the document, which COW
ers six typewriter pages. alleges prin-
cipally that the plaintiffs health and
business prospects were Injured to that
extent by reason Of the plaintiffs arr
rest on February 19,1s99. on the lunacy
charge and his subsequent detention In
jail and commitment to the Spencer in
sane asylum, whence he was released on
May 4, 1899, by order of Judge Blizzard.
The declaration states that the plain
tin was and is a good, quiet sane cIti-
zen and In no respect lunatlc; that he
was afflicted with weak lungs and the
defendant knew confinement Of any sort
would impair his health and tend to
cause his death. He was carrying on
the practice Of medicine and his arrest
injured his practice; his being dragged
from u railroad car by officers in this
city, and hauled through the streets to
the Jail also had the effect of lnjuring
him in the estimation of his fellow clti-
zens. Continuing the declaration alleges
that the defendant contrlved to defame,
lmpoverish, Cypress and ruin the plain
tlff, and 1t caused the plaintiff to ex-
pend $500 in procuring his discharge
from imprisonment "and the aiding of
himself in the premises and the mani
festatIon of his innocence and sanity in
that behalf"
In brief DR.. Hlssom maintains he was
injured to the extent sued for on ac-
count of the lunacy charge brought
against him.

UNSATISFACTORY SCHEDULE
ofthe Street Car Line Said to be Re-
suit Oft EIeyen.Hour Day.

Ofthe Street Car Line Sald TO ne tSe'.
suit ofthe EIeVen.Hour Day.
The new schedule OF the Wheeling
Railway Company is unsatisfactory to
that portion OF the travelling public
wishing to use the cars after II o'clock
at night, and also to those who depend
on the early morning cars before s
o'clock. The schedule went into effect
yesterday, and as n consequence last
night Islanders who waited In town for
car after II o'clock were inclined to
do some Of the kicking which other
wards have been prone to accuse them
of.
The new schedule is the outcome of
the strike settlement, and 1t was adopt
ed on account Of the men being granted
n eleven-hour day. Before the strike
they worked twelve hours, and 1t Is
said q smooth working schedule can
best be formed out Of twelve or nine
hour day. The first car leaves the
barns now at $50 n. M, instead Of 1880
a. M, and the last car at 1852 p. m.
instead OF 1888 p. m. The last car un-
der the old system was a source of Joy
to belated citizens. It passed the cor
ner of Fourteenth and Main streets IF
teen minutes after midnight, bound for
the barns, and now passes this point
at 11:2S p. m. The new schedule works
a hardship on the men wanting to go
to work early In the BenwoOd mills.
