In the Case of the Soper Lumber Com
pany Against Halstead & Har-
mount.
In the case Of the Soper Lumber COM
pany of Chicago against the Halstead
& Harmount company of this city the
jury in the civil side Of the superior
court yesterday brought in a verdict
for the defendant, The verdict was
rendered about o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon after the jury had considered
the case about two hours.
1t seems that the Soper Lumber COM
pany shipped to F. II, Russell, former
ly in the lumber business here, some
lumber which Mr.. Russell sold to Hal
stead & Harmount. Mr.. Russell had
made certain representations as to his
financial condition to Dun's CONNER
cial agency, and these representations
were reported by Dun's agency to the
Soper Lumber company, which later
claimed that the representations made
by Mr.. Russell were false. The Soper
company then brought two suits
through Attorneys J.. Birney futile and
Hobart L. Hotchkiss of this city, one
suit against Mr.. Russell for making
the representations alleged and the 9TH
er against the Halstead & Harmount
company to recover the lumber.
Attorneys E. p. Arvine and George
A. Beers were retained as counsel by
Mr.. Russell and they claimed the suit
against their client for trial, but the
suit was not reached. In the suit
against Halstead & Harmount tried
yesterday the defendants were repre-
sented by Attorney Talcott II. Russell.
The verdict for the defendant yesterday
Is virtually a disposition of the two
suits and is vindication for Halstead
& Harmount and for Mr.. Russell, who
were charged with fraud and collision.
1t is said that this suit will be followed
by damage suit to be brought on the
repleYin bond.

TRIED TO WRECK A TRAIN?

Switches Blocked With Stones and
Wicks Removed from Switch
Lights
Boston, June 5.--A track walker of
the New York, New Haven and Hart
ford railroad early this morning at
Forest pin station discovered that the
wcks had been removed from the
switch lights and that the switches had
been blocked with stones, driven Sc
curely in between the rails. The police
were called and the vicinity was search
ed, but no clues were found, The police
continued their investigation to-day,
assisted by detectives of the railroad
company.
The railroad officials say that if the
work was done for the purpose of
wrecking a train the plan would have
failed, as with the switch lights extin-
guished every engineer would stop his
train to investigate.

Two Cases of Yellow Fever.
(By the Associated press.l

Washington, August 3.-Surgeon Gen
eral Wyman, of the Marine Hospital
Service, has received a dispatch from
Surgeon j. H. White, dated at Key West,
Fla, yesterday confirming the reports
of yellow fever in Hillsboro county,
Florida. He announces in his dispatch
that the medical representative of the
State Board at Tampa had reported to
the State health officer that there were
two cases of yellow fever in Hillsboro
county Accompanied by the State health
officer, Surgeon White left Immediately
for the scene of the outbreak of the
fever to investigate the cases. His re-
port has not yet been received. Marine
hospital service authorities refuse to
discuss the probable significance of the
appearance of the fever at this time
pending some definite official informa-
tion. 1t had been hoped that with it's
failure to appear up to this time the
season might pass without fever develop
ments on the Florida coast.
