FAMOUS MERIDIAN
 SUIT COMPROMISED
DIR. W. w. PAINE WILL GET ssooo FROM M. G 0. FOR INJURIES sus- TANNED NEARLY TWO YEARS AGO.

Meridian, Miss, April 11.-(speeial)-A compromise was today affected by the contesting lawyers in the bitterly fought damage suit for personal injuries, filed more than a year ago by Dr. w. w. Paine, prominent physician of this city. against the Mobile and Ohio Railroad company.
 As stated by the interested lawyers this afternoon. the company had agreed to pay Dr. Paine $s0OO in cash and to assume the costs of the suit. pr. Paine was injured in the spring of 1903, and has since sui fered from semi i-paralysls. Slightly more than a year ago he entered suit in the circuit court for $20O0 damages. As brought out in the plaintiffs evidence he was called at night to attend patient in the southern section of the city. Ar irving at the Mobile and Ohio tracks he found the street closed by freight train. Tying his horse and buggy he att tempted to pass around when a car de- tached by a switch engine struck him blow about the head which caused the paralysis.
 The company contested the suit on sev- eral grounds, but mainly attempted to prove that the injuries of Dr. Paine were not of a permanent nature. The jury brought in a verdict for $1O,000 The rail- road company at once took an appeal to the state supreme court. where the case was being fought out when the compro- mise was effected.
 Owing to the conspicuous position held by Dr. Paine, as we'll as certain other features of the case, 1t has attracted wide spread attention throughout this sec ton.
