LITIGANT REPRIMANDED.
Judge Hazen Administers a Rebuke
in Decision.

In deciding the foreclosure case of Pa
thence Doty against NJ. r. Doty and
Others which was brought to the Shaw
nee county district court on a change of
venue from Wabaunsee county, Judge
Hazen took occasion to severely arraign
the defendant who was opposing the case
NJ. r. Doty, who was the principal de-
PENDANT in the case, made no defense, but
H d. Shepard, who was also named
defendant, did oppose it vigorously. He
entered a general denial to the petition
filed in the case and pleaded the statute
of limi tations as a reason why the mort
gage should not be foreclosed.
The case was a badly complicated one
and required lawyer to figure it out. 1t
seems that Shepard had been the assignee
of DOty & Sons when they failed, and
among the property that passed into his
foreclosure suit was brought. Instead of
holding it in trust, Judge Hazen found
that Shepard turned it over to Mr.. Doty
in settlement of some transaction be-
tween them.
Judge Hazen decided that the mortgage
was perfectly good and still binding. He
censured Shepard for his actions in the
entire transaction, and thought that he
had no business opposing the foreclosure
of the mortgage anyway
Shepard disposed of the property some
time before the commencement of this
suit" said Judge Hazen. land 1 am una

he has in this land, else say he has

SANTA FE INTO FRISCO.
Will Probably Make Changes at the
Los Angeles Offices.

1t is current rumOr in Los Angeles,
the present headquarters of the Santa

roads, that as soon as the new Santa Fe
connection into San Francisco is COM
pleted the office of General Manager w.
G. Nevin and the legal department of
that portion of the system will be re-
moved to San Francisco. The passen-
ger and freight department,ftis thought,
Will remain at Los Angeles.
Regardless of rumOrs, just what will
be done as soon as the Santa Fe formal
1y takes possession of the road into San
Francisco is still a question. The line
may be operated in connection with the
Santa Fe-Pacific and Southern Cali
fornia roads, or it may be operated
separately. There may be an entire re-
arrangement of the Santa Fe property
west of Albuquerque as a result of the
acquisition of the Bakersfield line, and
in any event a number of changes may
be reasonably looked for.

KILLED A BRAKEMAN.
Now Widow Wants $4,000 From
the Railroad.

A suit asking for $4,000 damages from
the Missouri Pacific Railway company
has been filed in the federal court a
transcript from the court of common pleas
of Wyandotte county. The plaintiff in
the case is Amanda Rodman, whose hus-
band, 7. p. Rodman, was killed by a Mis-
souri, Pacific switch engine in Kansas
City, Kan, in April 1886, and for whose
death Mrs Rodman now asks damages.
Mr.. ROdman was head brakeman on a
Union Pacific freight running west out of
Kansas City. AT the time he was killed
he had opened a switch to let his train
pass to the main line from a sidetrack;
Just as the engine of his train reached
him the engine blew off a lot of steam.
and to escape it Rodman is alleged to
have stepped backward on to the Missouri
Pacific track, which was only a few feet
away. The noise of the steam drowned
the noise made by a switch engine on the
Missouri Pacific track, which happened
along at the same time, and Rodman was
killed instantly.
Damage was claimed on the ground that
the Missouri Pacific engine was RUNNING
faster than is allowed in the city limits,
and that it gave no warning of it's ap-
DTOacl.

Railroad Employees Given a Hard
Blow by the U. S. Supreme Court.

A case of the greatest Importance to

court of the United Stats. 1t is a case
entitled Sturm against the Rock Island,
originating at BelviIle, Kansas. The
supreme court of the United States,
reversing the supreme court of Kansas,
in effect holds that the wages of a rail-
road employe, earned in Kansas, can be
garniSheed in Iowa, although the en-
plOye resides in Kansas, and the wages
are exempt under the laws of this state.
This may be sound law. but it is liable
to work hardship to railroad men. IN

secute a railroad employe with a false
claim.
