pany and was engaged In the discharge
OF his duty when the train he was on
collided with freight I; was alleged
that the engine Of the freight was de-
fective. verdict was given I'm the dis
trict court for $4,000. The appeal was
taken on The grounds that Stone who
brought the suit, had no interest in the
case. which was wrongfully brought: that
there were not facts TO constitute an ac-
tion, errors on the part OF the court and
misdirection on the part OF the Judge
The Supreme court affirmed the judg-
ment OF the lower court on all these.
The second case was precisely similar
to the first In all particulars. II was
brought by a. /. Stone as administrator
OF the estate of William Murray. a pas
senger. who also was killed in the same
collision. In his case a verdict had been
given In the district court of S4250. The
verdict was affirmed.

Large Force of Men Engaged in
PatrOlling the Threatened
District.

People residing along the Ninth and
Tenth South canals are in fear of ser
ious trouble resulting from floods. An
exclusive story in The Tribune of
Thursday announced considerable dan
ger from high water, at that time prac-
ticaly submerging the surrounding ter
Titory
Thursday the water was even higher
and more dangerous than on Wcdncs-
day. The canals were both taxed TO
their utmost capacity with the flood
water and several times during the day
il looked as though the flooding of tho
entire southwestern part Of the city
would be inevitable. The Street de-
partment had patrols out during all of
"Wednesday night and had a large force

The entire cause of the trouble rs the
bridges which span the canal about the
Intersection Of Ninth South and Third

the raising of number of bridges and
work was begun on them immediately.

district directly around il was in I'M

several feet and the result was that the

rated one block farther west This
Threw the danger of an overflow down
i'm the neighborhood of Third West. This
bridge now extends about two feet
down into the water. Another trouble
Is the fact that underneath one half of
this bridge the water cannot pass be-
cause of the rubbish which has aecu
nulated. The railroad officials have
been notified to raise the bridge and
work will probably be begun today. The
raising of these two bridges and about
two others will greatly lessen the dan
