NEITHER SIDE IS SATISFIED.
Cattle Damage Case Against Railroad
VIII Be Tried Again.

~ III IL 1870 49,
An important cattle case from
Jewell county, involving the right of
railroad company to require a cattle
shipper to sign a contract limiting the
carriers responsibility for damage.
came Up for hearing Monday afternoon
in the supreme court, and under stipu-
latiOn of the attorneys for both sides,
was reversed pro fOrma for the pur-
nose of getting the case on for new
trial in the lower court.
The title of the case in the supreme
court IS the Santa Fe railway against
Walter NJ. Poole. The case was heard
bv the supreme court and decided on
April Z. 1906, and the Santa Fe secured
g rehearing. The case was set for re-
fhearinR at the term of court which
opened Monday. and would have been
argued had not both litigants been dis
satisfied with the verdict and desired d
new. chance in the lower court
The controversy arose over a ship
7neut Of seven carloads of cattle by
Poole from Loveiand. in Jewell county,
to Kansas City. The usual time for
eucF a shipment is 13 hours. but
Poole's cattle were on the way Tor -
hours. 1t made them day late IN
Getting on the market and the price
had gone off. Poole sued for $206.98
FOR shrinkage Of the cattle in weight
for $4s5.S3, the amount the market
had gone off, and for S14.4O for feed.
The railroad company presented as its
defense a contract signed by Poole
which read;
Gas condition precedent to his
right to recover any damages for any
loss or injury to his said stock. during
4he transportation thereof, or at any
Mace or places where the same may
be loaded or unioaded. for any pur-
nose on the company's road, or pre-
vious to the loading thereof for ship
ment the shipper or his agent in
charge Of the stock will give notice in
writing of his claim before such stock
shall have been removed from the
place OF destination
Poole gave no such notice to the
railroad company and on that ground
the Santa Fe refused to paw his claim.
THE lower court held that the contract
prevented Poole's recovery for shrink
age in the stock. but did not cover his
loss on account < the market going
orf The Jury All Led Poole full dam
ages for his loss because of the mar
7,ets fall.
The Santa Fe appealed the case to
fhe supreme court but neither side
vas satisfied with the outcome of the
euif and when the supreme court al
lowed rehearing. the attorneys for
Poole were willing to go back for a
new trial.

Sudden Death Of Or. Hilary Lotion.

We have before us copy of
the True Democrat, giving an
account of the sudden death at st.
Francisville, La. on May 1st,
from heart disease, of DR.. Hilary
Lotion, at the age of 49 years.
DIR. Lotion went from Lincoln
county to Newroads, La, abont
20 years ago, and became a prom
inent and influential citizen of
West Felieiana parish. He had a
large circle of relatives in this
county and was a brother of Mr..
Nathan Lotion and an uncle of
Mr.. Albert Evans. Every mark
of honor and respect was paid to
his memory by the people of st.
Francisyille, a fact that is greatly
appreciated by his Mississippi
relatives.

lamp Sims was mobbed six
miles from Clinton near Tinnin
school house. Constable Hen
rdicks, one of the most fearless of
ocfiers, had attempted to arrest
him for jumping a contract, when
Sims fired at him and killed his
horse under him. Hendricks ar
rested him later and locked him
up in his corn crib. During the
night a mob hailed Hendricks,
threw a blanket over him and
bound him, and strung the negro,
who was one of the most desper-
ate in Kinds county, to a limb.

THE NEW ENUMERATION
BroOkhayen's Present Population |,
1852 An increase Of 1874 Since
the Last Census
Suburban Population. not Including
PearIhayen, is 2ll0.

The Leaders, readers are aware
that by request of the Brookhaven
Progressive Union, the Mayor
and Board of Aldermen ordered
at its meeting May 1st'a enumer-
alton of the city's population; it
being at the same time agreed that
the Union would have an enumer
alton taken of the population just
outside of the corporate limits.
The city of Brookhaven, accord
ing to the present corporate linn
its, includes one square mile, of
which the middle of Monticello
street, between the main tracks of
the Illionis Central Railroad, is
the geographical center. The
enumeration on the outside of the
corporate limits, included half
mile in each direction beyond the
present city limits, exclusive of
the town of Pearlhaven.
The enumeration within the
city and in the outlying suburbs
has just been completed with the
following result:
Population inside the city, 1862
Population outside, 2119
Total 5771
The enumeration of Brookhaven
by wards was as follows:
First Ward 1925
Second Ward 735
Third Ward 852
Fourth Ward 591
The enumeration of the city
was done under the immediate
direction of Mr.. Charles Heuck,
and on the outside by Mr.. B. S.
Cato.
The population within the cor
porate limits of Brook haven, as
shown by the U. S. census of 1900
was 2678, SO the increase in
six years has been 874.
1t was the intention of the Pro
gressive Union to also enumerate
the population of Pearlhaven,
but objection was raised by the
Mayor and the manager of the
Pearl River Lumber Co., and the
work has been temporarily sus-
pended in that direction. The
number of people there is esti-
mated at from 1000 to 1900, which
would bring the present popula-
tion included in the two miles
square in and around Brookhaven
up to about $500.

MISSISSIPPI CENTRAL.
SEVERAL ITEMS OF INTEREST CON.
CERNING THE NEW RAILROAD.
It Win Cross The |. c. Tracks OppO.
site the Brick Yard.

The negotiations pending for
some time past between the Off
GERS of the Mississippi Central
Railroad and the |. G. as to where
etEe former road would cross the
tracks of the latter on its way to
Natchez, has been finally decided.
The public is not advised as to all
the various considerations and
circumstances which figured in
these negotiations, but the officers
of the M. G. have decided to run
their main line near the north of
the present corporate limits of
Brookhaven. instead of through
the city near the |. G. water tank,
as at one time contemplated. As
finally located, the road will cut
off part of Seavey's brickyard,
cross the |. e. tracks between the
colored Methodist church and S.
F. Smurr's property, cross the
-Brookhaven and Wesson road at
Mrs. Dale's residence, and cross
the Brookhaven and Red Star road
between the old McClendon home
and Rev. J. P. Hemby's. thence
in a. westerly direction, passing
between the homes of w. F. Davis
and S. P. Oliver on the Caseyville
road.
In an interview by the editor
of The Leader Thursday morning
with Chief Engineer Archibald,
Mr.. Archibald confirmed the
above. Other items of interest
were also gathered from Mr..
Archibald who, at the time, was
hastily packing his grip to catch
train for a trip to Natchez.
The NJ. G. depot is to be locat-
ed near Mr.. Hemby's on the strip
of land lying between the Brook
haven and Wesson road and the
Brookhaven and Red Star Road,
just inside the present corporate
limits of the city, which will place
it a little over quarter, on an air
line, from the |. G. depot. As
long as Brookhaven remains the
western terminus of the road and
until the NJ. G. gets its own depot
building constructed. its trains
will switch down to the /. c.
depot from the brickyard over the
tracks of the Gravel Pit or Pearl
River line. The switch connec-
tions there were made last Tues
day. The filling in and ballasting
up of the track between Smiths
Ferry and Brookhaven is being
pushed as rapidly as possible and
has been completed to this side of
Sontag. Mr.. Archibald said the
road would not be ready for trains
to begin to run regularly between
Brookhaven and Hattiesburg un-
til some time in June. As is
known the Progressive Union and
other citizens of Brookhaven are
preparing to celebrate the open
ing up of the new road by COM
pllmentary reception to its Off
cials, whenever the date is def
nitely known.
Contractor Gibson is now en-
gagged on twenty five miles of the
grading work eastward from
Natchez. The Worthington Con-
struction Company has been
awarded the contract for the grad
ing between Brookhaven and the
Homochitto river, and the con-
tractors are expected to begin
work at the Brookhaven end about
May 25th.
As he tucked the last piece of
laundry vigorously into his grip,
in answer to a question about
whether the road would run
through the town of Meadville, or
to the north of it, Mr.. Archibald
said the question had not been
finally decided, as the grade prob
lem involved was serious one.
The Semi-weekly leader. (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1905-1941, 1906-05-12
HELP FOR FRISCO.

The Leader would like to en-
phaslze, if it could, the call issued
BY some of our leading citizens
for mass meeting at the Opera
House Sunday afternoon at $3.50,
to consider and. decide upon steps
for rendering assistance to the
stricken people of San Francisco.
We certainly rejoice that this call
has been made. In fact, we have
felt our pride in our splendid lit
tie city a bit humiliated that a
movement for the object stated
has not been made sooner. Brook
haven people are generous and
sympathetic, and never, to our
knowledge, have they failed to
respond literally and promptly to
the cry of suffering and distress
until recently, and they now have
the opportunity to redeem them
selves for that delinquency.
The enormlty and appalling
character Of the San Francisco
disaster is in part familiar to all
of our readers. Its, full magni-
tude and awful nature cannot be
fully comprehended even by those
who witnessed it. The convert
ing into ashes of 5000, 100000 of
property, the destruction of
thousands upon thousands of
houses from the princeliest palaces
to the humblest huts, and the
turning of 100000 people, hungry
and homeless and without the en-
ployment to earn a livelihood into
the streets, with all the physical
and mental anguish which this
implies, staggers the most vivid
imagination.
Much has been done and done
promptly by the government and
the generous and sympathetic
people of our great country, but
much, very much, remains to be
done, in which Brookhaven may
still lend helping hand.
The Leader sincerely hopes to
see the Opera House packed to-
morrow afternoon at $3.50. Let
our people turn out and make
amends for past tardiness and neg
lect by earnest sympathy and gen.
erous giving.
