Used NEGRO AS TARGET.
William Lawson, Negro. Seeks to
Recover Damages.

The suit of William Lawson. colored. by
Sarah Brown next friend, against the
National Protective Association on policy
was tried in Judge Leathers's court yes
terday on an appeal from a Justices court.
The suit is surrounded with unusual cir
cumstances. Lawson Is but nineteen years
Old and i'm August, 1899, he was porter in
the Kneipe saloon on Virginia avenue. The
ice man coming into the door to get
the ice order when the bartender for a
joke pointed a revolver at him. 1t was sup
posed the revolver was not loaded Law
son happened 10 come into the door at
this time and the ice man grabbed Lawson
and held him and got behind him. The
apparently harmless weapon exploded.
Lawson was shot through the thick part
of the hand.
The negro carried an accident policy
with the National Protective Association,
and went to the local agent and asked him
to settle. Lawson says the agent repre-
scented to him that he could not recover
anything, as the accident was the result
OF a Scuifie which comes within prohibit
tive clause in the policy. Notwithstand-
ing this, Lawson asserts that the agent
said he would give him $50 out of charity
further claim. The proposition was ac-
cepted and negotiations ended.
Later Lawson consulted an attorney.
and he was advised to bring suit for tho
recovery of the amount of the policy. Suit
was brought in a Justices court on the
grounds that the representations of the
local agent were fraudulent and that he
had right to recover on the policy. He
asked for SIS. Judgment was given
against the defendant in the Justices
court, and the case was eaied to the
Superior Court. The case was heard by

Future of the c., III. & ID.

The calling of special meeting by the
directors of the Cincinnati, Hamilton &
Dayton Company, Dec. IS. for the purpose,
it is stated, of authorizing the refunding
OF maturing bonds at lower rate and TO
issue Cincinnati, Dayton & Chicago bonds
now in its treasury for the purpose of
building extensions. is thought to have
more meaning than appears on the surface,
and 1t will not be a surprise should some
plan be fixed to more closely ally the Gin
cinnati, Hamilton & Indianapolis and the
Indiana. Decatur & Western with the Gin
cinnat. Hamilton * Dayton proper, and
further the extension of the Indiana, De-
catur Il Western to some more important
railroad center than it now reaches. The
conditions that the Cincinnati, Hamilton &
Dayton now has TO meet make Ii evident
that for self-protection it must in the near
future take advance steps, and the
pl, mt prosperous condition of the
company gives an excellent basis
TO act upon. The condition of the
roadbed and its equipment is such
that for some time to come no great out
lays will be required aside from proper
maintenance of the property.
