new TRIAL is GRANTED
MUCH TALKED OF OLSON $4,000
CASE MUST BE TRIED AGAIN
Judge Brill Says the Verdict Was
Not Justified by the Evidence,
Which Tended to Impeach
Plaintiffs Case.

Mr.. Nels S. Olson will have to wait a
While for the $4,000 that the jury award
ed him in his famous damage suit against
the 500 road. Judge Brill who last week
heard arguments of counsel in the mat
ter of new trial, yesterday filed an
order denying the defendants motion for
judgment Notwithstanding the verdict
but granting defendants motion for a
new trial. 1t is the general opinion that
Mr.. Olson will never again be so near
to getting $4,000.
1t will be remembered that Olson sued
the road for $4,000 for personal injuries
sustained in an accident in December
1900. He was brakeman for the de-
PENDANT company, and, while making a
coupling, the engine backed down and
his arm was caught, and had to be ampu-
tated. During the trial one of the plain
tiffS witnesses was arrested for perjury.
Notwithstanding this, the jury gave Oh
son verdict for $4,000. The verdict was
surprise to everybody, and the papers
handled the jury severely for it's remark
able action. Judge Brill in his order
says:
In view of the fact that there is to
De new trial, it is better not to discuss
the case at length.
The motion for new trial is granted
| on the ground that the verdict is not
| justified by the evidence.
Of the large number of cases tried by
me there have been very few where the
| discretion vested in the court to set
| aside verdict of the jury has been eX-
ercised, but in this case it is clear in
| my mind that the jury failed to give
! due consideration to the evidence, and
| that justice would be perverted if the
| verdict was to stand. But while this is
| true, and while the evidence tends to
| impeach plaintiffs case, it is very con-
| vincing to my mind that the case is not
| one in which I could direct judgment for
! the defendant. The question of con-
tributory negligence is for the jury
1.-The court cannot say, as a matter of
law, that the plaintiff was negligent in
attempting to return to the other side
of the track if the engine was at a stand
! still and was only to move on his signal
The verdict is very large, but whether
it is so large it ought to be set aside
on that ground is not determined. -

proposition made by c. w. Rider to put

A large force of men are stnl en-
