NEW JERSEY DAMAGE SUITS
a Legislative Bill Intended to Sim.
pity Litigation.
Juries Given Power to Fix the
Amount to he Levied for Deaths
in Negligence Cases

TRENTON. N J., Jan. PA bill has
been introduced in the New Jersey Legis-
lature by Mr. Tenant Democrat. Of Hud-
son. which is designed to break the dead
lock between the Supreme Court and the
Jurors in several counties
For nearly two years there has been a
deadlock between the court and the 5uries
over the amount due parents for the loss
of the life of 4 child by the negligence of
any corporation or its agents
The case prominently before the people
is that of Graham vs.. the North Jersey
Traction Company. On three different oc-
casions jury of Hudson county has rem
dered a verdict for the parents OF some
81, GOO to $1,000 for the killing Of a child.
The jury found that the child of the
plaintiff was killed by the negligence of
the company's servants In each instance.
the Supreme Court has set aside the YER
dict as contrary to the law and the Court
of Errors and Appeals has sustained the
Supreme Court.
Mr. Tenants bill is known as No %.
and provides simply that in suits TO re-
cover damages in cases where "the death
Of the person is caused by the wrongful
act. neglect. or default. the jury shall ind
such damage as IT snail deem fair and
just with reference TO the pecuniary in

While the act now proposed by Mr..
Tenant Is simple in its construction.
II Will prove most sweeping n it's effects
upon litigation. and it is bound to bring
down upon the lawmakers the influence of
all corporations to prevent Its passage.
The proposed bill would. If I became a
law, lessen litigation in the higher courts,
in that il would place absolutely in the
power of the jury the right 20 say what
damages plaintiff is entitled TO receive
for the death of a relative. and there
would be no reason for corporations TO
appeal from an alleged excessive YER

F. II. Cunningham, a teacher in HamiI-

cadet at West Point. was a witness be-

morning His testimony closed the case
Mr.. Cunningham was the terminate of
young Macarthur who was hazed into
commissions. This case is said to have
been the worst Of the Academy Witness

Lieutenant Colonel Helm. and Lieutenant
Anderson.
Mr.. Cunningham said he resigned, be-
cause he did not think he would like mill
tary life. The reason he did not think he
would care fo- military life vas because
of the brutal hazing of lower class men
by upper class men and its influence upon
military life.
What offence did Macarthur commit
that subjected him TO hazing?r asked Rep
resentatiye Smith.
His offence was being the son Of Gen
eraI Macarthur"
Then il was 4 continuous ofTence?"
There is no doubt in my mind that il
was his only offence Dockery claimed
he did not brace sufficiently, but this was
not true, as Macarthur always walked
erect"
Macarthur had never boosted of his
parentage, witness said, and no upper
class man ever complained that he ex-
hi0ited undue pride IN ii.
Chairman Dick wanted to know why
Macarthur did not fight instead of sub

Arthur's mother was opposed 10 fighting.

Alleged Strained Relations Between
Him and the King


NEW YORK, Jan. PA cable to the
World from London says:
Prime Minister Salisbury's absence
from Osborne House during the Queens
last moments has not been publicly ex-
planned, and causes widespread specuIa-
ton. especially in court and political cir
cles. According TO information that has
reached the World through a reliable
channel. Lord Salisbury remained away
owing to the strained personal relations
between him and the present King. The
Times. in an editorial today on the new
King. partly affords clue TO the mystery
when it says:
We shall not pretend that there is
nothing in his lengthy career which those
who respect and admire him could not
wish otherwise
These warning words are said to refer
not TO the Mordaunt case of thirty years
ago, nor even to the Tranby Croft scan
dal. but to a more recent episode con
corning which the Marquis of Salisbury.
on behalf of the Queen. read the Prince
of Wales severe lecture. which &C

THE serious aspect of this matter is
that under such condition of things
