DEMURRERS UPHELD
CONTENTION OF DEFENDANTS
ADMITTED BY PROSECUTING
ATTORNEY.
Legal Point Concerning Commercial
Scales is Settled That is Of In
terest to Entire State.

Lexington, Ky-The fourteen In
dlctments which last May were re-
turned by the grand jury against vari-
GUS grocers and market men, charg-
ing them with using false scales in
their sales, were all thrown out OF
court. Commonwealth Attorney
John r. Allen admitting that the de-
murrers were well sustained, as he
said the law in this state did not cover
the point complained of in the scales.
w. p. Kimball attorney for the de-
PENDANTS, had argued there was no al
legation that the scales falsely weigh
ed and stated moreover that they
were absolutely correct as to weight
The computing chart, he said, was but
q matter of convenience, both to seller
and buyer, and it could not be shown
the scale was false in computing the
value of the article sold, leaving out
the break Of a half cent.
Mr.. Kimbah asked the court to sus-
tain the demurrer on the ground that
the indictment did not specify in what
respect the scale was false. Com
monwealth's Attorney Allen said that
he could not agree with Mr.. Kimball
that the scales complained Of were
automatically correct, but he did be-
lieve it was commercially correct, as
the custom all over the country was
for merchants to give and take in the
matter of a fraction of a cent in the
selling price of an article, where
weight determined the value.
Col. Allen said he was of the opin
ion the make Of scale complained oil
in the indictment was correct as tc
weight, but the law made no provi
sion for punishment where the alleged
offense was in the computing chart

IRON HORSE ALMOST
STEPPED ON THE EQUINE

There was a lot OF excitement on
Osceola avenue near Fort King about
: p. m. today. Mr.. John Doziers de-
livery team was standing by his ware
house when the y. =. l. northbound
train, which was late, came in. The
horse was standing with his head to
the train. and the engine caught one
of the wagon shafts and turned horse
and wagon completely over. The
horse would have been torn TO pieces
if the engine hadn't stopped in ten
feet. Engineer Joe Hogan was on the
side of the locomotive from the horse.
but at the call Of his fireman shut off
his big machine with a wonderful
promptness.
When the engine stopped, the horse
was damned under the running board
and almost under the drivers. Being
a rather sensible horse. he kept quiet
and waited for people to help him. A
crowd, foremost in which We're Fire
Chief Chambers and his assistants
rushed to the rescue They had a hard
job. for horse, wagon and engine were
so damned together that il seemed al
most impossible to move any of them
without taking one all to pieces
The horse was finally lifted out of the
tangle by main strength. and then the
train moved on. The wagon was badly
broken up. but strange to say the
horse was hurt very little if at all.
