THE ATWOOD CASE
ksD IDIured In Back By BeIso Hit By Trolley Car Wsnls
 s2,oeo Damages. x

The suit of Walter s. Atwood, Jr. a foreman for the Plume & Atwood Manufacturing Co, against the Con- necticut Co, occupied the jury and Judge Bennett in the superior court to-day. One Wednesday evening In July, 1907, MT Atwood while driving home in hack was run down by trolley car OH East Main street bc- tween Phoenix avenue and Exchange place. The motorman was arrested for overspeeding his car within the city limits, was found guilty and fined in the city court. That case was appealed and what became of 1t no one seems to know, for evidently that was the last heard, of it. The hack driver was. thrown off and iu- jured and MT Atwood was considera- bly, knocked about in the hack. He claims to have suffered,a a great nerv- ous shock and that he was injured internally also. He claimed . dam- ages of $2,000, alleging that he wds laid up for some time and expended $200 in medicine and doctors bills.
 The defendant company was reps resented by three lawyers, City Att torney Kellogg and two from New Haven, while the plaintiffs case is in the hands of but one, Cassidy. It was shown during the cross-examina- ton of MT Atwood that about the time of the accident and for a period prior thereto he had been a severe sufferer from nervous disorders and that in consequence he was using powerful drugs, morphine being one of them. He is now in normal health, however, and is no longer using drugs or medicines of any na- ture.
 James E. Harrington. who ran . lunch room on East Main street at the time of the accident, and siEce moved to Schenectady, N. Y., was MT Atwood's strongest witness.
