Tor the week Tuesday all the case
listed for call had been disposed o
except six, all from Bolivar county
and all companion cases. AS the at

cases, they will be set at the head o.
the next call docket, which will be
reached after the state criminal dock
ct is disposed of.
The six cases hanging fire are Yazoc
& Mississippi Valley Railroad Com
pany against the Frank Dudley Com.
pany; also against Cora B. Dudley
Frank Dudley, Byron J. Blethen, Glare
Brister and Lee Blethen, all of which
grow out of the same allegation of
facts. the Frank Dudley Company
was theatrical stock company, COW
ering a regular booking itinerary, and
desired to go from Yazoo City to
Greenville. Owing to some mixup and
general misunderstanding, the rail
road company's agents at Yazoo City
routed them the longest way around,
from Yazoo City to Greenwood, and
thence via the Southern in Mississippi,
instead of by way of Moorehead
which was the most direct.
1t was also claimed that the nigh
agent at Greenwood allowed the com
panys baggage to lie out on the opel
platform for several hours in hare
pouring rain, instead of storing it il
the baggage room, whereby materia
damage was caused. 1t was set III
that the roundabout routing caused
considerable delay in the arrival of the
company at Greenville and too lat
to effectively advertise their show
and for this, and for the damage tc
trunks and other personal property b,
the rain, the plaintiffs were entitled
to recover. For the damaged baggag
suit was entered for $4,000, while TO
the alleged roundabout and unneces
sarily long routing they were entitle'
to actual and punitive damages to tn,
amount of $4,000.
Suit was filed in the Bolivar count,
circuit court in October, 1908, for tho
amounts stated and after accumulate
laws delays, trial was had and judg
ment was rendered for S3,039.30. TIL,
six cases were tried separately a
Rosedale and consumed all of tn
week, as well as all of the available
jury material, and judgment was uni
formly rendered in each of the six diff
ferent sets of jurymen. 1t has beer
four years since judgment was render
ed and the cases got started on thei
toilsome way to the supreme court
during which period one of the parties
complaining has died while others are
scattered about variously. Frank A |
Montgomery, former district attorney
OF the Eleventh District, is represent
ing the railroad company, while Judge
Thomas S. Owen of Rosedale appears

underestimated as the effect of high
explosive projectiles fired by guns and
howitzers.
THE opening OF the war found the
Allies in a position of inieriority to
the enemy in this respect an inferior
