CAMP WANTS REMUNERATION
FOR CABBAGES HE LOST.
Truck Farmer Sues Railroad Company
for Damage He Suffered When Chi
cage, indianapolis and Louisville
Tank Overlooked His Land.

Because the Monon railroad en-
ployes permitted the water tank at
South Hammond to be pumped full to
overlooking with water and because
the water which overfowed covered
ten acres of his land with from one
to two inches Of water and destroyed
a crop of cabbages, William Camp is
suing the Chicago, indianapolis &
Louisville Railroad company for $500
damages.
William Camp has long been known
as one of the large cabbage growers
in the vicinity of Hammond. Each
year his wagons come to Hammond
laden with the hard, crisp heads that
he has raised on his farm. Last
spring. however, the Monon railroad
employees became careless and negli-
gent, according to the allegations in
the complaint and as a result the wa
ter tank was allowed to overflow IN
such quantities that Camps land was
entirely inundated.
Camp raises hard heads and he has
a hard head and he did not propose
to suffer the loss of his crop of cab
bages when it was the fault of the
railroad company. So he hired an at
torney and he is going to see If he
can compel the railroad company tc
settle.
Of course, there are seasons wher
the crops are farther advanced and
the rainfalls are few that Mr.. CamT
would be glad to have the MonoI
Railroad company irrigate his land
but he thinks they should have mott
led him Of their benevolent purpos,
and permitted the use of little cab
Dage sense in the matter.
