DAMAGE SUIT SETTLED.
Richard N. DOrr Wins Victory Over
The Missouri Railroad
Company.

The damage suit of Richard N. Dorr,
the present cit, clerk of Wichita, a.
gainst the Missouri Pacific Railway
company is ended. A small journal
entry on the books of the clerk of the
district court indicates that the case
has been dismissed by mutual agree
ment of the attorneys representing
Mr.. Dorr and the railway company,
the cost to be paid by the company.
This means that g settlement has
been effected between the company
and Mr.. Dorr and that one of the most
noted damage suits ever brought
against railroad by an individual in
Sedgwick county is ended. Mr.. Dorr
received sl2, 500 in settlement of his
claim and said last night that the mat
ter was settled in full.
Two years ago last April Mr.. Dorr
was a brakeman in the employ Of the
Missouri Pacific Railway company.
While in the discharge of his duties he
was thrown beneath the wheels of a
moving train and both legs were cut off,
one above and the other just below
the knee. After many weeks Of suffer-
ing he recovered sufficiently to begin
a suit for damages against the compa-
ny. From a strong young man, with a
physique like an athlete he was reduc-
ed to the lot of helpless cripple and
all by reason of defective safety ap-
pliance on an engine. In the court it
was shown that it was not carelessness
upon the part of Mr.. Dorr that caused
the accident, but in one of the most
holly contested cases ever in the dis
trict court here his attorneys, Houston
& Brooks, proved the justice of their
cause so clearly that the jury returned
a verdict granting Mr.. Dorr S35, 900
damage against the company. This is
the largest damage awarded for per-
sonal injuries ever made by a Jury IN
Kansas and it excited much comment,
not only in this state but elsewhere.
Naturally, with such a verdict
against it, the company appealed the
case to the supreme court and when il
came on for hearing there it was sent
back for new trial on a technicality
The case was still pending in the dis
trict court when the settlement wa.
effected.
Mr.. Dorr was elected city clerk q
year ago last spring by the largest ma
jority of any man on the ticket, which
tends to show his popularity, and hi
many friends in Wichita will be gla,
TO learn that the case has finally beer
settled so advantageously for him. .
