HARPER GIVEN A VERDICT.
City Court Jury Awarded Him $500
Damages Tor Injuries.

Damages for Injuries.
The sealed verdict rendered by the
jury in the case of w. H. Harper
against the Southern Transportation
Company was opened and read in the
City Court yesterday morning. The
verdict gave damages in the sum of
$500 in favor of the plaintiff.
Harper was a passenger aboard the
Katie, one of the steam boats belong
ing to the defendant company, and was
injured by being trampled upon by
some frightened fellow-passengers in a
collision the Katie had with the Sea-
board Air Line bridge.
He claimed to have been injured for
life and fixed his damages at $4,000.
The jury could not agree that the loss
he had suffered was worth so much
and while deciding he was entitled to
receive some damages, reduced their
amount to $500.
