an as Result of Sons Action.

HUDSON, Wis, June 25.-[Special.l
A most interesting case, known as
King vs.. the Apple River Power compu
ny ct al. engaged the attention of the
circuit court here all Of last week. The
jury rendered its verdict, which was so
indefinite that the decision falls upon
Judge Il. W. Helms of Hudson.
In December, 1904, Frank King of
Somerset, st. Croix county, cut down, Or
started to cut down, pole belonging to
the Apple River Power company, for the
reason that it stood too near the resi-
dence of his mother, Mrs. Julia King.
DIR, f. w. Epley Of New Richmond.
president of the power company, swore
out complaint for the arrest of both
Frank King and Mrs. King. The case
against Mrs. King was withdrawn, rs it
was discovered that she was not respon-
sible for her sons alleged act, but Frank
King was held for trial in the circuit
court. although the matter was later
dropped.
Mrs. King then began suit against the
power company and DR., Epley for dam
ages in the sum of $1,000, on the grounds
of malicious prosecution.
There were nine points referred to the
jury and because of the rather contra
dictory answers the case will be argued
over again before the court.
