JUDGE NICHOLS TAKES MOTIONS

STATUTE 10 APPLICABLE
Railroad Seeks to Reverse Jury's YER
dict Of s14.5oo on Theory Of Law
That ksIIshsr Could Recover Only
Under Federal Act, and is Now
Barred by Time Limitation.

judge Clarence Nichols now has un-
der consideration two important rail-
road cases. without interfering with
his work in the Tama county court. or
work in the local court. Judge Nichols
came here Wednesday night. held court
until IL o'clock. and returned to To-
ledo today. For more than two hours
Wednesday night he listened to argu-
n1ents on motions in the kelleher case
against the Iowa Central.
Judge Nichols took the motions un-
der adyisement. without announcing
when he might be ready to rule on it.
and United States supreme court rul-
ings. offered by the attorneys c. Fl. L.
Boardman and Judge NJ. ]. Wade, OF
Iowa City. and cited In support Of the
theory Of law advanced by the law
yers in supporting their position.
Argue Motions in Detail.
The motions argued were those filed
by the railroad company's attorneys.
One Of these was motion to arrest
judgment. The other was motion for
judgment in favor of the defendant
railroad company notwithstanding the
jurys verdict of S14,500 for Kelleher, or
Breen. the assignee Of the claim.
The gist Of the motions was that
Keliehers action should have been
brought under the federal employers
liability act of April 1908. because
Kelleher and the Iowa Central were
engaged in Interstate traffic at the
time. in 1908. when Kelleher was in
jured. Kelleher having failed to have
invoked this act, had forfeited all
right to recover under 1T. because his
claim had been barred by the statute
of limitation. The railroad company's
attorney argued in detail this theory,
and he claimed the further right to
set up this claim in defense at any time
during the progress. OF the case. Judge
Wade's argument against the motions
was that such a theory Of law could
not be advanced at-this later date when
1t had not previousg; been pleaded. It
was made apparent that both sides in
the presentation of this motion are
laying the foundation for an appeal to
the state supreme court, and probably
from there to the United States SUI
preme court. .sjsis
