SUE FOR HEAVY DAMAGES
FORMER EMPLOYEES CLAIM $4,000
FROM CHICAGO GREAT
WESTERN
LIDDLE HURT IN A COLLISION
Engineer Would Like $4,000
SHERRY, for Injury Received
In Shops, Wants
10000.

Two damage suits, the total claims in
which aggregate $4,000, were filed with
The clerk of court yesterday afternoon.
In each the Chicago Great Western rail
way company is the defendant and the
claims are made by late employees of the
read who have suffered by reason of the
roads alleged negligence.
The largest amount asked. for is $4,000,
the plaintiff being Arnold A Liddle, an
engineer formerly employed by the COM
pany. Liddle, who was IN charge of an
engine pulling the fast passenger express,
figured in head-on collision near Beth
Ell, Kan, last October, and as a result
OF the miXup lost leg and foot and re-
ceived other injuries that will render him
a cripple for life. The wreck was a ba1
one and was due, he claims, to a mis-
carriage Of ORDERS a freight train being
on the main track when the passenger
should have had the right OF way. The
Chicago Great Western uses the tracks
of the Kansas City Northwestern in that
state and the latter company has been
made a party to the suit
The second suit is for 0,000 and is
brought by John SHERRY, who until a
short time ago was employed in the COM
pany's shops at Oelwein, 10. He was
working in the rubber goods department.
and during rush was ordered to help
foreman named Niles remove the brass
llrings from a number of injectors. Shier-
ry alleges, in his complaint that Niles
was drunk at the time, and because of
this fact he was struck in the eye by a
piece of the brass with such force as to
cause him to lose it's use. The other
eye has now become affected, he says,
and he now fears he will lose the sight
OF both. SHERRY claims that Niles fond
ness for drink was known to the COM
rany.
