oTTUMWA TRACTION & LIGHT
COMPANY WINS DAMAGE
CASE IN COURT.
Jury Finds for Defendant Company In
the Case of Anna Sherman Against
the Traction Company, Suit for
$4,000 Damages.

After being out all night the jury
in the damage case Of Anna Sherman
against the Ottumwa Traction & Light
company this morning returned a YER
dict in favor of the defendant com
pany. The case begun in the district
court Monday, February 81 and has
been hard fought one.
Miss Anna Sherman in her petition
asking for $1,000 damages, alleged that
on March %, 1904, she sustained per.
manent injuries by being thrown
from buggy on Sheridan avenue, as
a result of the horse she was driving
becoming frightened at street car
belonging to the Ottumwa Traction &
Light company.
Miss Sherman stated In the petition
that the car was running at O. higher
rate Of speed that was prescribed by
law and that the motorman. did not
make any attempt to stop the car af-
ter the horse became frightened and
started to run, but that the care fol-
lowed the horse closely until near
Dewey street when the horse Jumped
across the sidewalk, throwing her to
the ground. She claimed that she had
been suffering from internal injuries
and nervous prostration since the ac-
cident and that her injuries were per-
nanent,
Denies Allegations.
!. The defense denied that the care was
being run in excess Of the rate OF
speed prescribed by the city ordinance
and that the accident resulted because
the girl was unaccustoned to driving
and when the horse became frightened
did not know how to manage Il.
The attorneys in the case were O.
w. Whitmore and Jacques & Jaques for
the PLAINTIFF and McNett 81 TisdaIe
and Smith & Lewis for the Traction
company. A number OF witnesses were
examined and the case was hard
fought by the attorneys. The case
was submitted to the jury yesterday
afternoon at O'Clock. ..--~s--

half weeks receipts, the total for three
days reaching the enormous figures Of
3,741 arrivals. Should the average the
latter half of the week be of normal
proportions, the record for one week s
run Of 1869, made the week ending
March 80, 1895, will be broken. The
1885 arrivals Monday were easily
cleaned up, and the run Tuesday of
LOAF horses still found broad outlet,
but Wednesdays 1854 offerings over
crowded the market, and prices have
commenced to weaken under the pres
sure. With heavy arrivals the balance
of the week values promise to quot
ably decline. The better quality Of
ferings, as usual, show the least
changes, while common and medium
kinds are s2.50@5.oo lower than the
high point Of last week. Drafters,
eastern chunks, expressers and good
harness horses lead in demand. Com
mon chunks and light southern Offer
ings show the shortest decline. Bulk
of sales for best commercial offerings
fairly steady, with inferior kinds lower
at the following prices:

.LAVINIA CAUSED
MUCH EXCITEMENT
ABOUT THE HARBOR WHILE
WHILE GETTING AWAY FOR
LAYSAN ISLAND.

Captain Weisbarth caused consider
able excitement i'm the harbor this
morning while under way for Laysan
with his schooner the Lavinia. In
fact may thought that perhaps the
old Viking had broken loose into a
pirate
The captain got the vessel under
way, shortly after II o'clock and sail
ed makai across the harbor from the
Irmgard wharf. He ran afoul of the
yacht Helene, and one of Allen and
Robinson's schooners and then veer-
ing further down the harbor, ran into
the Alameda. Somebody on the steamer
called to him to look out. Welsbarth
went below and returned on deck with
a shotgun which he handled as if he
proposed to fill the man on the Ala
media full of shot The latter desisted
however from further remark and then
the Lavinia started down the camel
She had to get out of the way of the
tug Fearless coming past with the
bark r. p. Rithet in tow but finally the
old Viking cleared the last buoy and
got well on his way to Laysan where
he will load a cargo of guano into the
LaVinia.
