CIRCUS PEOPLE SUED
THO Negroes Hurt During Progress Of
the Parade.

During the progress Of the John Rob
inson circus parade on Friday country
cart owned and occupied by two colored
people, Robert and Mary Bowman, was
run into. The two negroes were thrown
out and badly hurt. and the cart was
damaged. Tho two darkies that night en-
ployed Mesrs. L. o. Wendenburg and H.
A Atkinson as counsel, and a, suit for
s., coo was instituted against the circus
management. An attachment was issued,
but because the negroes could not give
bond that did not hold good. Then gar
nishee on the Chesapeake and Ohio rail-
road company was served. and the case
will be heard at the December term Of
the Law and Equity Court. The circus
people have retained Scott & Buchanan
to represent them.
1t is probable that, upon an examina-
ton into the case, compromise may be
effected, provided the company is shown
to be in fault. Otherwise the case will
be fought to the end.
