TRIAL OF $4,000
SUIT is STARTED
Jury to Hear Evidence in Dam
age Proceedings Against
Plow Company.
NEGLECT is ALLEGATION
Says Defendant Failed TO Provide
Proper Light in Room Where
He Was at Work.

The damage suit for $1,000 filed by
William Maxwell against the Rock
Island Pillow company came up for
hearing this morning in the circuit
court before Judge F. D. Ramsay, and
the greater part of the day was spent
in selecting a jury. The suit grows
out of injuries which Maxwell sus-
tanned as the result of an accident
March %, 1907
While employed by the company he
ran into beam and severely hurt his
head. He bases his claim for damages
on the claim that the company did not
supply proper lighting facilities in the
room where he was at work and that
the accident would have been averted
had there been any means of him
seeing his way while walking AROUND
the shop in the discharge of his duties.
His attorneys are H. NJ. McCaskrin
and S. R. Kenworthy and the defend
ant corporation is represented by the
firm of Searle & Marshall.
Throw Out MoIenski Case.
The Molensk damage suit against
the Standard Table Oil Cloth company
was thrown out of court yesterday
afternoon as the result of a motion
made by Searle & Marshall, attorneys
for the defendant, that the case be
taken from the hands of the jury and
dismissed. Adolph Molensh, the plain
tiff, had sustained injuries to his ankle
while employed by the company and
he sought to recover the sum of $780,
coo, alleging that the company had not
taken proper precautions for his safe
ty In the opinion of the court, the
accident which resulted in Molenski's
injury was the result of his own negli-
gence and that of a fellow workman
rather than any negligence on the part
of the company. Trial of the case had
commenced and the plaintiffs wit
nesses had been examined when the
motion to squelch was made. S. R.
Kenworthy represented the plaintiff
