JURY VERDICT
FOR PLAINTIFF
Or. Lubach Gets 1854 from
Jersey Central Company.

Because a trolley car OF the Jersey
Central Traction Company caused
the death of his horse, and the de-
molishing of his vehicle August 10,
1911, a jury of twelve men in the
district court yesterday afternoon
brought in q verdict against the de-
fendant in the suit of DR.. Anthony P.
Lubach against the Jersey Central
Traction Company, assessing the
damage at $500 for the horse and
$54 for the vehicle. This was the
second trial of the action, the first
trial last February having resulted
in a disagreement of the jury.
Thomas Brown represented the plain
tiff in both trials and Attorney Henry
D. Brinley, Of State Attorney Gener-
al Wilson's office, of Red Bank,
represented the trolley company.
After about one-half hour of con-
sideration the jury, of which Theo-
dore Anderson was foreman, brought
In a verdict for the full damages
claimed by the plaintiff. The plaintiff
claimed that by the unnecessary
blowing of the whistle on a trolley
car August 10, 1911, his horse was
scared, and it ran on the track in
front of the trolley car and was kill
ed, besides his wagon being demol-
ished. The company contended that
the motorman blew his whistle as
usual, which was corroborated by
the motorman and several other
witnesses. Numerous witnesses were
examined both for the plaintiff and
the defendant, and the trial contin-
ued from 10 q. m. until $3.50 p. m,
when the jury returned the verdict

ALLEGED DRUNKS MUST
WALK THE CHALK LINE

Washington, July 12:-All police
stations here will probably have a
chalk line hereafter. Police Court
Judge Pugh has ruled that the test
OF drunkenness Is whether the one
examined can walk a chalk line with
out faltering. The new excise law
making drunkenness a mlsdemeanor
has heretofore had the guardians
guessing to determine exactly when
man is intoxicated. 'If man is
in such condition that he can't walk
a chalk line" says Judge Pugh, che
is drunk, and" he added, ''if he is
in such condition that he will at
tempt to walk a cfralk line, that very
fact is good evidence that he doubts
his own sobriety and he Is almost
certain to be drunk then"
