HOW LAWYERS WIN FAT FEES
Member of the Profession Tells of
Undiscovered Cases SWARM
Ing the Earth.

Several lawyers were discussing how
fortune sometimes favors one side of a
case that wins when the other side was
sure of verdict. They said II was al
ways the fault of stupid witnesses when
they lost, and all OF them agreed that
under no circumstances could the fault
ever be laid at the door OF counsel.
Another lawyer said that more cases
arc lost through never getting into court
than in any other way.
Why" he said, there are thousands
OF good cases lying about Just waiting to
be picked up II we only knew where to
lay our hands on them A few months
ago l noticed a young man lmping
around the corridors here. At first 1
didn't pay much attention to him be-
cause he was the son of a man who had
been connected with the courts nearly all
his life, and naturally supposed II any
thing had happened TO him that could be
made TO produce damages his father
would have had II looked into by some
lawyer. But, on the idea that II doesn't
cost much to ask questions. 1 asked him
what was the matter He replied that II
was nothing much, and was going along,
but l insisted, and then he told me.
Say. what do you suppose II was?
Why he was passing through a public
street. public, mind you, and man who
was cleaning windows fell on him Pick
ing fat damages out OF a case like that
Was just the same as finding money In
minute | had him sign a retainer, and
in short time. as cases go, had a ver-
dict against the owners of the building
for $500 Now, am going TO sue the
MISUNDERSTANDING concern and will
surely set another $500 out OF that That
is what l mean when say that We lose
lot OF money by people not knowing
Just think OF the millions OF men, women,
and children. the many miles OF streets,
the great traffic, the constant labor in
high places"
Say" interrupted one of the lawyers,
why don't you also sue the city for hav-
ing a street where a man can get hurt
while walking upon it?"
| Now, there was DO something I'm that" 4"
was the reply I'm look It up."-New
