RAILWAY MUST
PAY FOR WORK
Federal Court Ends with Yer
dict for Plaintiff in Gel
ebrated Case.

PARKERsBURG, Jan. 26.-After
fourteen days Of strenuous, activity
deral court was brought to an end
last night with a verdict rendered in
favor Of the plaintiff in the celebrated
case OF Peter w. Reherd, receiver, etc.
against the Coal and Iron Railroad
company, in assumpstt, which had oc-
cupied the greater part OF the pres
ent session. The jury received the
case shortly before noon yesterday
after listening to a strong plea made
by Attorney F. o. Blue, in behalf of
the plaintiff, and returned verdict
late yesterday afternoon to the sur
prise of most of the court officials, as
much time had been conceded the
jurors owing to the immensely Of tes=
timony which they had to consider.
The plaintiff was awarded the SUN
of $945, SO6s1 by the jury. The suit
was brought by the contractors, who
constructed the railroad between
Elkins and Durbin, and asked for an
additional remuneration since they
had encountered more work than the
contract called for. Attorneys Harris,
of Harrlsonburg, Va; Blue, of Phil
ippi, and Todd, of Columbus, were
much elated over the decision.
