WAITED MANY YEARS.
Chicago Woman Injured Nine Yea'a
Ago at Last Gets $4,000
Nerdicf

Chicago, Oct. 21.-The Union Traction
company must pay Emma Grennel, now 10
years of age, $4,000 damages for personal
injuries received when the little girl was
run down and injured by Western ave-
nue. electric car of the old West Chicago
Street Railway company nine ears ago.
This was the verdict of a jury In Judge
Abbott's court On the third trial Of the
case. after litigation lasting six years and
productive Of the greatest jury bribing
scandals in the state of Illinois, the case
was decided in favor of the child. one of
the largest personal injury awards ever
made in the history of Illinois courts.
The crippled child, injured October 81,
1895, when she was run down by a West
ern avenue electric car, broke into mt OF
weeping when she heard the verdict. seal
ed by the jurymen. read by Judge Abbott.
She was only years of age when the
flying car cut off her right hand at the
wrist, crushed all her left hand except
the thumb and index finger and crushed
off part of her left foot. Since that time
she has been a cripple.
On the first trial before Judge Hanecy
in 1895, the jury disagreed and this dlsa-
greement was followed by jury bribing
confessions which resulted in the indict-
ment of Alexander Sullivan. who tried the
case for the railway, and the flight OF
,Bailiff Jimmie" Lynch, who, after wan
derlng about the world for three years.
returned to confess against the men who
had placed the bride money in his hands.
On the second trial. before Judge Abenr
Smith in 1899, the jury awarded verdict
of 100000 damages in favor of the Grip
piled GIRL out The traction corporation APP
pealed and the case was remanded by the
appellate court for another trial.
The third trial ended today. But the
litigation in this bitterly fought case is
not to end here; an appeal will be made
by the company to the appellate court.
