RAILROAD "A VICTOR
IN DAMAGE ACTION
Woman Shot from An AFmored
Train during the Strike
Loses in Court
Cpv AssocrArEn pREasl

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Mar. -
Judge z. b. Dyer in circuit court here
today directed the jury to bring a
verdict for the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad Company, defendant, in the
action of Mrs. Anna Hall, who sued
to recover $25,0O0 damages alleged
to have been sustained when she was
shot during the miners strike last
year.
Judge Dyer, after hearing testi-
mony the greater part of the week,
decided the plaintiff had not made
out a case and told the jury if it
found otherwise it would be neces-
sary for him to set aside the finding.
Mrs. Hall alleged she had been shot
in both legs by bullet coming from
the armored train which passed UP
the Paint Creek branch of the Ches-
apeake and Ohio railroad the night of
February z, 1913.
This was the first of a number of
similar actions growing out of the
battle of Holly Grove.

WASHINGTON. Mar SPEAKER
Clark signalized his sixty-fourth birth
day today by denounciRg from the
rostrum of the House an address by
Charles Zueblin, of Winchester, Mass,
former president of sociology OF the
University OF Chicago, assailing the
speakers counting of votes on the
report of the committee that investi-
gated the Mulhall lobby charges.
Democrats, Republicans and Pro-
gressives cheered and paid tribute to
the speaker when he had finished.
Clark branded zueblin's statements as
untrue, brazen and outrageous and
reflection on the integrity of the
House. He quoted the figures OF the
MulhalI vote pointing out that any
member wishing to vote had four OPP
portunities to do so and added II have
been lied about SO much have sort of

HEIRS ARE
SOON TO BE PAID
For Lands Confiscated Years
Ago by An American Con-
sui on Islands.
tsrrerAL 70 rEF TELEaRAM'

WASHINGTON, Mar, Back IN
1856, Jonathan S. jerks, then United
States consul in the Navigator Islands,
established consular court, without,
it is alleged, any authority of law for
so doing, and through this court con-
flscated a lot of property belonging to
Americans Included in the number
of those whose property was taken
was Virginius p. Chaplin, father OF
Mrs. Mortimer Wilson Smith, OF
CIarksburg, who was associated with
Aaron Van Camp.
Bills to pay the heirs of these men
for the amounts alleged to have been
wrongfuIly taken from them have
passed both Senate and House at va
rious times, but never have passed
both houses at the same session.
CONGRESSMAN Howard Sutherland
has introduced bills in the House pro-
yidfng for the payment of $21,3oo to
the heirs of Chaplin and $3S,75O to the
heirs Of Van Camp. Both amounts
have been fixed by the Court of Claims
and that court has held them TO be
lust. The amounts are already m
Guided in tie Senate omnibus claims
bill. and it is believed they will be
allowed at this session of Congress.

ments have been made for hearing
to be had in washington on Tuesday,
March 10, in connection with an adj
verse report on the further improve
ment of the Big Sandy river which
separates West Virginia from Ken
lucky. The last river and harbor bill
provided that a survey should be
made and a report filed by the board
of engineers for rivers and harbors
on the advisabiIity of continuing the
Improvement of that river by the con-
struction of further locks and dams.
The report has been made and is
against the, expenditure of further
funds on the Improvement of the river
Those who want the work continued
claim that the improvement of the
river will enable coal operators TO
ship coal at a much lower rate than
the present rate and Will benefit all
the coal operators and miners along
the river. The engineers report that
on account of the tortuous nature OF
the stream the construction OF locks
and dams would not enable the opera
tors to compete by water with the RAN

rate would be in excess of that by ran
