PLATT BROS CASE
Supreme Court Upholds the
 $2O.OOO Damages Decision.

The decision of the superior court in awarding the Platt Bros damages of about $20,000 against the city has been sustained by the supreme court. This is virtually defeat for the Platt Bros Co, as the judgment covers all their claims up to the year 1904. They instituted two suits against the city for about s100,000 damages each, alleging their proper ty at Platts Mills was considerably damaged because of the presence of sewage in the Naugatuck river. Tn 1904 they entered two more suits on substantially the same grounds. It is very probable they will bring another suit for damages since 1904.
 In the suit of Edward Wilson and others against Edward Root, his wife and sister-in-law, no error was found. The plaintiffs claimed dam ages of $30.00O for breach of con- tract by the defendants failing to sell to them large tract of land in the west end. They paid down some $500 as a guarantee and when the defendants refused to sell they tep- dered the plaintiffs their money, which the plaintiffs refused The superior court gave judgment for the plaintiffs for $500, thus practically ordering them to take back their money.

THE GROOVED RAIL
Trial of Motorman Snow Brought to Light Some Things About 1t.

Herbert Snow, the motorman, who was fined $10 and costs In the city court yesterday for negligence in the management of his car and collid- ing with hack on East Main street, ought to make a strong witness Tor Mayor Thoms and the board of public works in their contention for arooyed rail on the North Willow street trolley tracks. In giving his side of the story of the collision Snow said he stopped his car almost instantly by reversing the power and applying the brake. Il had no trouble in stopping the car,' said he. It was car easy to brake and we were on grooved rail- The rail was wet with rain, but that made no differ ence, because the rail was a grooved rail and it Is easy to stop a car on such a track. ]"
 Tt is easier to stop car on a grooved rail than on T rail?' Prosecutor Meigs asked.
 Well I guess so," was the an- swer.
 MT Meigs smiled knowingly at At torney Boardman, counsel for Snow and the trolley company, and Attor- ney Boardman smiled back and said, "Ha, ha, I don't wish to become in- volved in the argument about the rail-" and everybody smiled know ingly then.

DURANT DOOMED
Supreme Court Backs Up Lower
 Court Disbarment Stands.

It seems to be all up with Harold R. Durant in his efforts to be re- stored to the practice of law in this state, for the supreme court has de- cided his appeal from Judge Shum- ways finding against him. Judge Shumway's decision was permanent, or indefinite disbarment for unpro- fessional conduct. The opinion of the supreme court was written by Judge Prentice and in 1t he said:
 Our examination of the evidence has failed to disclose that any ma terial fact has been without iustl1i- cation, either in direct evidence or reasonable inference from such evil dence."
 There is one other source left open to MT Durant, the legislature, but in the opinion of lawyers the legis- lature would hardly undo the work of the superior court, moreover when that work was confirmed by the su- preme court.

The G. P's,

A physicians wife was complaining
Of the annoyances she suffers in the
interests of her young husbands prac-
tee.
when l married the doctor" she
said, his abbreviation of g. p. amused
me, but in two cases at least / soon
found that it meant more than a CRATE
full patient. One woman whom he
asked me to be nice to because she
was a g. p. hasabsfrowed my clothes
more or less for four years; the other
has a little girl born just a day later
than our Marjorie, and she uses the
coincidence as a reason for borrowing
all poor Marjorie's things I've been
asked to lend the child's clothes, her
playthings, her perambulator, and
even the services of the nurse. Now
both these women are popular in diff
ferent little cliques and have brought
the doctor a patient or two So If L
were to speak my mind out it would
mean perhaps loss. They know they
have me at their mercy, SO until our
practice is very much larger 1 must
grin and bear it. My only consolation
is in saying that G. p. means, in their
case graft patient.
