ATTORNEY A. w. SCOTS
DEFENSE
His Manly Fight for Justice

A0 @'AN1i1lJ L iShl iOl uSlISC
One of the manifest and most fear
less presentations of a case which
has ever been made in the courts of
the District of Columbia by any man
was the defense by Almond w.
Scott, esq, in the Police Court last
week on behalf of Miss Louisa Phil
lips, who was arrested upon a charge
of aSsaulting a street car conductor.
The conductor claimed that some
words ensued over the question of
transfer, and without any provoca-
ton, the young lady slapped him in
his mouth. Two white women also
testified on behalf of the conductor
and said that they saw Miss Phillips
slap the conductor in the face. The
conductor, after a severe cross-ex-
animation by Attorney Scott, admit
ted that he came from the eastern
part of Maryland, and that he had
only lived in the District of Columbia
for about nine months. Miss Phil
lips took the stand and testified in
her own behalf and that she was pro-
voked by the conductors insolence
and discourtesy.
Attorney Scott, in making his ar
gument to Judge Kimball, among
other things said, that there was a
so-called chivalrOus feeling in the
breasts of certain people throughout
this country for womanhood, but that
they did not apply it to all women.
He said, however, that he thanked
God, that when He created him, He
gave him q heart big enough and
broad enough to impell him to lift
his voice or arm in defense of any
woman, be she white or be she black.
SIN this case, your Honor, you have
the ridiculous spectacle of a burly
man coming into a court house and
going upon the witness stand and
admitting under oath, that frail,
weak woman smacked him in his
face, and saying that he stood there
and took it and said nothing. On the
other hand, you have the woman who
went upon the stand and testified,
that she was on the car, sitting in a
quiet and orderly manner, that she
had paid her fare, and afterwards
asked for a transfer, and was there
upon insulted by this youngster Of
an upstart, who had recently come
from the country and was now oc-
cupying the very, very lofty and ex-
alted position of street car conduc-
tor.
4 appeal to you, Your Honor, to
acquit this young woman. because
much depends upon your decision in
maintaining peace and good order in
this community. If your should con-
vict her, there might be some bum
or loafer, who is not sitting under
the sound of your voice, who might
take it as a license to go out from
j here and insult Negro women, and
they might happen to run up against
the wrong mans sister or wife. We
: encounter no hostility from the bet
ter classes of the people of this COM
: munity who have red blood in their
veins. The trouble only comes from
the poorer classes, or the scum eIe-
ment."
Lawyer Scoot took occasion to say
that his client had done what any
other woman should have done IN
. der the circumstances, and that she
] had set a splendid example for her
I down-trodden sisters.

the last stretch of the Tonopah rail
road the conductor discovered that
her ticket had not been stamped ac-
coTding to the railroad agreement
and she was elected from the train.
\ successful suit followed and the
interstate commerce commission
threatened to force matters.
Managers of the Burlington and
Rock Island roads yesterday address,
ed a letter to all the other lines ad-
vocating complete and unqualified
abolition of the stamping or validat-
ing nuisance for all forms of excur-
sion tickets. The proposition is to
allow passengers to buy their eXcur-
sion tickets, put them in their peck
cts and return without taking up half
their time in securing stamps. If
other railroads decline to join in the
proposition, the managers of the
Rock Island and Burlington lines say
they will take independent action and
knock out the stamps and joint
agencies. Once that the move is
started it is probable that the lines
operating to the Pacific coast may
also abolish the joint agent nuisance.

RAILROAD NOTES

Notice was given yesterday by Of
ficers of the Rock Island and Bur-
lington roads that hereafter these
companies would not require the val
idation stamping of return parts of
any form of excursion tickets. Here
tofore on any sort of an excursion
ticket and particularly those of the
Colorado summer resorts and the Pa
cific coast, the railroads have requir-
ed the passenger to deposit the trans
portation. have it stamped and o. K. d
by a representative of one or all of
the roads before it would be accept
ed for return passage. This cumber-
some and burdensome system was
pursued to prevent the scalping of
tickets.
There have been every summer
loud complaints against the railroads
for forcing the passengers to go
through this red tape after they had
paid for the ticket, just to convince
the transportation interests that the
tickets had not been sCalped. For
years railroad managers have been
asserting that if the ticket brokers
were out of the way all the red tape
that was necessary to prevent the sale
of tickets and which was a nuisance
to honest travellers would be abolished.

as May Buckley, was yesterday grant

from Charles w. S. Martin, an actor
whom she married in Denver Jan. %,
1908. Neither the plaintiff nor the de-

cree was granted. The husband did
not defend the suit. and the wife gave
her own testimony by deposition and
was supported by her aunt. Mrs.

ton Of Miss Emily Ann Wellman, who
has been on the stage less than two
years. but who is already recognized
as one of the foremost leading women
on the American stage, thanks to the
work she has displayed in the girls
role in this comedy.
AS to the play itself. it seems TO
meet with the kind OF approval that is
always the reward of the dramatic
compositions that gives marked enter
tainment in the performance and then
promotes thought and reflection. If
a play with a hidden lesson be what
is wanted-and the success of the last
five years among nonmusical plays
would seem to indicate that that is
what is wanted-then The Man Who
Stood Still certainly contains that
lesson. What play has given us
more human, appealing character than
that play by Mr. Mann John Krauss,
who will not keep pace with the prog
ress of the world. and who refuses to
see that this country moves faster
than his native Switzerland? The
shores of time are strewn with the
failures of men like Krauss and Mr..
Mann perfectly embodies this lovable,
mistaken, stubborn, kindly, reaction
airy, well-meaning old fellow. Mr.
Mann comes with Mathilde Cottrelly,
