The conductors and porters were re-
dueSted to give special attention To her.
and were informed that relatives would
meet the girl when the train reached the
Pennsylvania station in this city.
No definite statement of just what
happened on the train could he Obtainei
from either party in the case. but il ~
said that on the night of July p. when
the girl. who has a most attractive per-
sOnality, was in her berth in the Pull

noiseleSsy that his actions did not
awaken any of the persons in the ad-
joining berthS. it is reported that the
negro savagely beat the girl and injured
her SO severely that she became uncon-
