TRANSFER CASE TO BE HEARD.
Judge Terrell Sets Date for Argu-
ments in Municipal Court.

Judge Terrell in Municipal Court has
set the morning of December 10. at 10
o'clock, as the time for hearing arguments
in the suit for damages brought against
the Washington Railway and Electric
Company by Maj George A. Armes for
the purpose of testing the universal trans
fer law of 1894.
In order that no appeal may be taken
from the decision Of the Municipal Court
Attorney Frederick L. Siddons, on behalf
of the complainant, reduced the amount OF
damages asked from $40 to 10 cents. The
suit is founded on the refusal Of q con-
ductor employed by the defendant railway
company to issue a free transfer to the
plaintiff to the line of the Capital Trac-
ton Company at eth and F streets north
west October 6. Attorney George P
Hoover appeared as counsel for the rail-
way.
