(.GG CASE SETTLED
Supreme Court Will Not Re-
Hear SeaweII Appeal.
He VIII Now Get His 81, 500 for Services as
Buffer for Dscomposed Hen Fruit
at Shelby.

The Seawell rotten egg case is at last
settled, and H. F. Seawell, o.. Carthage
will get his $4,000 from the Seaboard Ali
Line Railroad, to pay him for services as
buffer for dozen or so of decomposed
hen fruit, which his person stopped at the
railroad station at Shelby a few years
ago, just after he had made a campaign
speech as a Populist candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor.
The Supreme Court yesterday evening
dismissed the petition of the railrpad to
re-hear its appeal from the Judgment of
the lower court 1t will be remembered
that on the appeal the Supreme Court
affirmed the lower courts judgment
awarding $4,000 damages to Seawell. Then
the Seaboard petitioned for another hear
ing of the case, with the result mentioned.
The opinion of the court was written by
Chief Justice Walter Clark and Associate
Justice H. G.. ConnOr wrote a cOncurrlng
opinion. Those opinions were confined en-
tirely to the legal questions at issue, and
did rot in any way take into consideration
the actors in the egg-throwing incident at
Shelby that has become Of almost histori
cal interest. This ends it for all time as
there is nothing in the case to warrant
an appeal to the United States Supreme
Court.
The facts in the case very briefly were
these: Seawell had made a campaign
speech i'll Shelby as the POpulist candi
date for Lieutenant Governor. After his
speech he went to the station Of the Sea
board Air Line Railroad to take his train
out of town. 1t seems that a crowd OF
young men of the town followed the
speaker to the station. They were lib
orally supplied with eggs that had seen
better days, and just as SeaWell went to
board his train they let fly at him and
succeeded in pretty thoroughly plastering
him with the decayed hen fruit.
Seawell sued the railroad for damages
on the ground that they were liable for
not protecting a passenger at their station
about to board one of their trains. Some
nice legal points were involved and the
case was fought hard, every inch OF
ground being contested stubbornly. l.
has been in the courts in one way and
another for several years 1t came out
on the evidence that the crowd that
egged Seawel came out of the office OF
the Station agent, and moreover that
that official threw at least one egg him.
self and urged on the others to throw
eggs and laughed when the eggs exploded
upon SeaWell. These last things were the
main facts he relied upon to obtain dam
ages
The opinion of the Supreme Court is
entirely upon the liability of the railroad
company to damages for failure to use all
means possible for the protection of its
passengers.
