Gus Damage Case.

Mrs. Malola Pool, administrator of
the estate of her husband, Joseph Pool,
has again secured a decision from the
supreme court in her suit against the
Southern Pacific company. She OBJ
tanned judgment once for $4,000 for
the death of her husband, who was a
car-repairer on the road. and was Kill
ed in the performance of mis- duty. The
state supreme court upheld her, but
the United States supreme court or
dered a new trial on grounds of error
in the admission of testimony. She won
the second suit and the railroad COM
pany appealed to the state supreme
court on the ground that the undis-
puted testimony was not sufficient to
prove negligence and carelessnesS on
the part of the company. But the
state supreme court. in an opinion
written by Justice Basi<in and concur
red in as to the result by
Chief Justice Bartch and Justice Miner,
holds that the evidence was sufficient
and that the judgment of the lower
court was correct. Attorneys for the
plaintiff and respondent were David
Evans, L. r. Rodgers and w. y. Walsh
while the Southern Pacific was repre-
scented by Marshall, ROyle q Hemp

MANY THIEVES BUSY
Many Animals Stolen In City and
Vicinity.
HADDOCK LOSES A TEAM
CONSTABLE's HORSES WERE
STOLEN NEAR KAMAS.
Many Other Animals Have Mysteri-
ously Disappeared During the
Past Few Weeks-Sheriff Howells
After the Thieves - Reports Re
ceived of Thefts In Tooele County.

There has been large number of
horses stolen within the past two
weeks, and the deputies of Sheriff
the thieves. In some instances the
horses have been recovered, and in
others no trace has been found of them.
Two weeks ago a black mare was
stolen from residence in the Sugar
House ward. on Eighth East street,
but it was found by some of Sheriff
Howeils' deputies. Kolitz, the candy
man, had a sorrel horse taken from his
barn last week, but it has not been
found.
One of the most curious cases was
that wherein Constable Ben Haddock
lost a team of horses. He had loaned
the team and wagon to two friends who
went fishing near KamaS last week.
One night, when they We're camped out
with the horses staked some distance
away, they disappeared In the morn
ing no trace could be found of the ami
mails.
a Shetland pony belonging to ]. Y.
Taylor was lost two weeks ago, wheth-
er stolen or not is undetermined. 1t
was found in the possession of boys in
the southern part of the city. They
said they had seen it wandering about
with a bride.
Sheriff Gillespie of Tooele county tel
ephoned to the sheriff of this county
last week that two horses had been
stolen from a farmer near Grantsville,
and that he expected they were coming
this way, but no trace was found of
them.
On Saturday night w. NJ. Wilson had
bay horse stolen from his pasture on
West Fifth South. AS this case has not
been reported to the .sheriff's office no
effort is being made to find the animal.
Deputies Harris and Dowse have
spent much time looking for horses
during the past two weeks. 1t is to
them that Sheriff Howells assigns such
cases, for he has found them quite sue
cessful in recovering horses.
