A RAILROAD COMPANY is LIABLE
FOR ANY INJURY OCCASIONED
A PERSON ELECTED BY 1T FROM
IT'S DEPOT. UNDER THE MISTA-
KEN IDEA THAT HE WAS VIO-
LATING ITS RULES.
This was a suit by plaintiff for dam
ages caused him by being forcibly
elected from the platform and depot Of
the defendant company. The Plaintiff
was 81 passenger. and when the train
stopped at Little Rock, got off of it
and on his way to the restaurant
spoke to another passenger, and was
thereupon seized by an employe of the
defendant and rudely elected from the
platform and depot and one of his legs
and ankle injured. The company ad-
mitted the election, but claimed that
he was violating one Of the rules
of the company in soliciting for his
hotel at Hot Springs, although he had
been repeatedly warned not to do So
and it also claimed that no unneces-
sary force was used in the election
The Jury found q verdict of 1000 for
the plaintiff, and defendant appealed.
The court says:
There is no doubt that the railway
company had the right to prohibit So
llclIinR ioI ilOtelS upOn.llS cars ana ue-
pot platforms But the question as to
whether the plaintiff was Soliciting"
ut the time of his election was submit
ted to the jury. and their finding was
in favor CT the plaintiff. We must
therefore take it as established that the
plaintiff was wrongfully elected by the
employees of the company under the be-
lief that he was violating its rules by
soliciting for hotel, swhen in fact he
was not doing so.
But we are OF opinion that the in
struction as requested was subject to
other objections; for when passenger
without fault on mis- part. is elected by
railway company from its premises
for supposed violation of its rules. 1t
seems. from the decisions, that the
company Is liable for the Injury occa-
stoned. without regard to whether 1t
exercised care or not 1t Is the duty
of the railway company to protect its
passengers from insult and injury by

is not himself in fault, 1t is no justifi-
cation OF an assault upon him to show
that the employees of the company be-
lieved. or had reasonable grounds to
believe that he was violating its rules
when In fact he was innocent. Affirm

PORTO RICAN SILVER.

The amendment was passed over until
tomorrow.
Mr. Morgan offered an amendment to
the section of the bill which proposes
TO redeem the Porto Rican silver coins
in United States money, giving 60 cents
of American money for the Porto Rican
peso. The amendment proposed to pay
100 cents for the peso.
Mr.. Morgan held that in the proposed
exchange of coins the United States
was taking advantage of the Porto
lHcans because the peso contained the
same amount of silver as the American
dollar. The Porto Ricans, he said are
entitled to 100 cents for their pesos, be-
cause that amount of silver in money
would be worth n hundred cents on the
dollar.
Mr.. Jones, of Arkansas, and Mr..
Bacon. OF Georgia, took the same posi-
ton.
MIR. Foraker maintained that the
position of the Democratic Senators
was not correct. There was no inten-
ton TO deprive the Porto Rlcans of any.
value. as an American dollar now was
worth In debt-paying power practically
two pesos in Porto Rico. He believed
the proposition of the bill was entirely
liberia! to the Porto Ricans
The discussion of the amendment
took wide range and had not been
concluded when the Senate, at 1855 d.
M. adjourned

ANOTHER AMENDMENT.

Mr. Bacon. of Georgia, offered an
amendment in the form of substitute
for Sections 2 and Of the committee
bill. establishing the regular Dingley
tariff rates of duty on articles imported
from foreign countries in Porto Rico.
and providing that no duties shall be
levied on articles imported into Porto
Rico from the United States, or into
the United States from Porto Rico.
Mr.. Bacon explained that 1t was his
idea to establish in Porto Rico the tariff
system in vogue in this country. He
said the amendment presented a square
issue of the question now before the
Senate.
Mr. Gallinger said the bill as 1t stood
was infinitely more liberal than was
the amendment offered by Mr.. Bacon.
Mr. Lindsay, of Kentucky. offered an
amendment 20 Mr.. Bacon's amendment
providing for absolute free trade be-
tween this country and Porto Rico. He
wanted to afford the Senate an oppor-
tunity to vote directly for free trade.
Mr.. Bacon accepted the amendment.

AN EMPTY DECLARATION.

Mr.. Foraker, in charge of the bill.
offered n substitute for section 5 of
the House bill in relation to goods
already imported, and the substitute
was agreed to.
The next committee amendment was
that which provided that the Spanish
or native inhabitants of Porto Rico and
their children should be 'citizens Of
Porto Rico. and as such entitled to the
protection of the United States
Mr.. Morgan maintained that the peo-
pie of Porto Rico were citizens of the
United States, and as such were en-
titled to the rights and immunities pre-
scribed by the constitution. The amend
ment. he said, was a vain and empty
declaration"
