ICE FACTORY CASE.
Supreme Court Has Granted
a New Trial.
There Was Evidence Allowed That Was I'M
proper and Calculated to Misgude
the Jury in Its Verdict.

Opinions were handed down by the
Supreme court yesterday as follows:
Ice Company vs.. r. and A. Railroad Co.;
new trial.
Short VS.. Gill; affirmed.
State VS.. Chestnut; affirmed.
Brown VS.. Morisey; petition to rehoar
sustained, former ruling reversed.
Brown VS.. Nimocks; appeal dismissed.
Mott VS.. Griffith affirmed.
Conrad VS.. Land Company; no error.

Cansler VS.. Penland petition dismissed,
former ruling sustained.
Bank VS.. Loughran; affirmed.
Log Company VS.. Coffin; per curtain,
affirmed
Leak VS.. C. c. Railroad Company; per
curiam, affirmed
OF these opinions the only one of local
interest is that giving a new trial in the
Ice Factory case against the Seaboafd
Railroad.
This is an action for damages for burn
ing an ice factory in this city on August
29th, 1898. it being alleged that the fire
was caused by sparks from the engine
(No. 22S) of the Atlanta Special which
passed the factory emitting sparks, some
twenty minutes before the fire was dis
covered.
On trial of this case in the Superior
court the jury gave a verdict in favor of
the Hygenic Plate Ice Company for dam
ages in the sum of 900. From this
the defendant railroad appealed. The
Supreme court now, on this appeal, grants
new trial. The reason for this decision
the court states in its opinion as follows :
During the trial the plaintiff offered
and was allowed over the defendants OBJ
lection, to introduce the evidence of sew
eral witnesses to show that several
times, both before and after this fire
and at other places on defendants line,
other engines of defendant had, by sparks
emitted, set fire to and burned the prop
erty of other persons. + "
This evidence of fires at various times
and at other places, caused by sparks
from other engines, both before and after
August 29th. we must hold to be incom-
petent, as it does not tend to prove the
condition of engine No. 22S, nor to
throwing light on the question directly
before the jury. 1t was well calculated
to divert the minds of the jury and lead
them to an unsafe verdict.
From the opinion Judge Douglas dis
sents.

BAKERY DAMAGED ny FIRE.
b. r. Rallagh Sustained . Loss OF $500
This Morning.
L.


This Morning.
From Mondays daily.
About o'clock this morning while
going to work in his bakery on West
Second street, B. P. Ballagh discovered
that the place was on fire. He immed-
iatel telephoned the department and
they were quickly on the scene. The
fire was confined mostly to the base
ment and caught from an overheated
heating stove used to heat that part
of the building. The ceiling Of the
basement was on fire when the depart
ment arrived but the flames were ex-
tinguished before any other portion of
the building was burned. Mr.. Ballagh
estimates his loss at from $500 to $500,
which is fully covered by insurance.
He also says the loss to the building
will probably amount to between 5000
and $500, fully covered by insurance.
The building is owned by R. N. Morrell.
just about one year ago Mr.. Ballagh
sustained a loss by fire, the damage
at that time amounting to $1,000, fully
insured.
