JOHN f.. MOORE SETS OUT a CLAIM
FOR $1,000 DAMAGES.
Edward Patterson Sues for Loss of a
ChiId-Brevery License Case
Other Court Cases.

Attorney George w Calvin is bringing
suit against the West Side Planning Mill
Company for damages on account Of an
alleged violation of contract The plaintiff
is John z. Moore. who was formerly en-
plyed as an engineer by the company.
Moore was injured on Aug. 3. 1900. He
alleges that he was preparing to clean the
boiler. and about to empty the steam
by removing the valve from the blowpipe.
He says the defendants directed him to
empty the boiler by removing the man
head. which ne did. He says that had the
boiler and equipment been in good repair
this could have been done safely, but on
account of the boiler being out of repair
the result was disastrous He says that on
removing the manhead hot mud and water
gushed out and scalded him.
He AYERS further that while he was suf
fering in both mind and body the defend
ants came to him and offered to pay aim
49, pay for his physician and medicine,
and 10 give him employment as long as he
could do the work and as long as their
establishment was in operation. He accept
ed the offer and an agreement was drawn
up. The plaintiff resumed his employment
soon as he able. He claims he was
compelled to lay off from time to time by
reason of his injuries. but always placed
capable substitute in his place. The plant
if says that in April of this year he re-
turned to work after period of rest, but
not allowed TO continue at his en-
Lloyment. He now claims the right to sue
for damages because of the failure of the
defendants TO keep their part of the con-
tract He asks that the agreement be
annulled and that he be awarded damages
in the sum of $1,000 on account of his in
juries.
Attorney Calvin is also bringing suit for
Edward Patterson, whose daughter, Helen
May Patterson, died a few weeks ago on
account of burns received. The suit is
against Charles W. Morbach, a merchant,
whose establishment is at Prospect and
State streets. The complaint says the de-
PENDANT built fire on March 20 last on
State street. between the sidewalk and
pavement, and FED the flames with boxes
which had accumulated in his store. 1t is
claimed the fire was left ungarded part of
the time. About / o'clock in the afternoon
Helen May Patterson, the little daughter or
the defendant, came along on her way home
with an older companion. The little girl
stopped to warm her hands. Her clothing
caught fire and she was so badly injured by
the flames that she died on April l6. Her
parent says he expended $500 for medical
attention and nursing, and has been de-
prived of her love, care and assistance. lie
demands damages in the sum of $4,000.

BREWERY LICENSE CASE.
Judge Allen Hears Argument and
Takes Case Under Amusement.

Judge Allen, of the Circuit Court, yes
terday heard argument in the appeal case
Of the city against Jacob Bieler agent for
the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Company, to
compel him TO pay $1,000 yearly license
for selling beer in compliance with a city
ordinance. The suit is being fought by the
company on the ground that the ordinance
is unconstitutional. In the argument yes
terday Judge Howe, for the brewing COM
pany said it was an injustice to tax the
Indianapolis Brewing Company, that has
several branches in the city, only $1,000
year and then compel the agent of one
company to pay like amount. Deputy
City Attorney Bell commended that the ordi-
nance comes under the provision OF police
privileges and is not unconstitutional for
that reason. Judge Allen has the case I'M
der advisement.

an angle of 80 degrees. on the horses

NEW SHORT STORIES
"HelIo, TOM This i. Mike"

"HelIo, Tom This In Mike"
Sir Thomas Upton and Michael Gu
daily of the Cudahy Packing company
nre warm personal friends Some OF
MIR. Cudahy's employees found 1t out
the last time Sir Thomas was in Amer
lea In way they will not soon forget.
The Cudahy company has a general
Office In New York city, with a dozen
stations for distributing dressed beef
In different parts of the city. So have
the Armours, Swift and other packing
companies. The employees Of the diff
ferent branches fell into habit of call
ing each other up by telephone, giving
assumed names and bantering each
other before making known their de-
mand.
One day Sir Thomas was In New
York and, wishing to see Mr.. Cudahy,
called up his Office by telephone. A
young clerk answered.
This is Sir Thomas Upton. l wish
to speak to Mr.. Cudahy," came over
the wire.
This is Mike. How are you, Tom,
old boy" came from the clerk, who
thought he was talking to an Armour
clerk in another part of the town.
Sir Thomas was amazed, but said.
II am well, thank you."
I'm mighty glad to hear from you,
Tom," the clerk continued. "How's the
market this morning? Did you have
good time coming overY'
Sir Thomas knew then that he was
not talking to Mr.. Cudahy, and the re-
marks he made through the telephone
surprised the clerk so much that In q
moment of embarrassment he forgot
to apologize, but told the girl on the
office switchboard to call the cashier.
Unwarned, the cashier took the same
view Of things as the clerk, and when
Sir Thomas announced his name the
cashier responded: "How's my old pal?
Are the old lady and the kids doing
we'll, Tom? Glad you called up. You
must do better in the next race. Can't
waste any more money OH your old
slow boat"
There was a mild explosion at the
other end Of the telephone and pro-
fuse apologies from the Cudahy end.
In a very few minutes the cashier was
telegraphing Chicago. Kansas City and
Omaha to find trace of Mr.. Cudahy
and find out when he would be in New
York. When the matter was explain.
ed to Sir Thomas, he laughed, but the
clerks at Cudahy's don't give fictitious
names over the telephone to this day
