INSTRUCTED
FOR The DEFENDANT
DAMAGE SUIT FOR LARGE SUM,
BROUGHT BY NEGRO AGAINST
BOTTLING COMPANY, TERMI-
MATES SUDDENLY.

Practically all day in the court of
record was taken up yesterday in
hearing the case of Ike Wallace, col
ored, against the Hygeia Bottling
Company, the plaintiff named bring
ing action in the sum of $4,000 for
personal injuries alleged to have been
sustained through the fault of the
defendant company. The. case came
to a sudden close late yesterday aft
ernoon when the court, after all tes-
timony had been heard, instructed the
jury to bring a verdict for the de-
PENDANT company, which meant that
there was no fault on the part of the
defendant that the negro had sus-
tanned the injuries which he COM
planned Of, and which he set forth in
his bill.
One of the features of the days
testimony was the statement given on
the stand by L. G. Crosby, who really
was the defendant in the case, as his
company was the one involved. 1t
appeared that the negro sustained
sustained some injuries to his eyes
from the breaking of a bottle in a
case which had been shipped from the
local headquarters to Pine Barren,
north of the city. The manager and
proprietor named, taking the stand in
the afternoon, gave minute descrip-
ton as to the preparation Of coca
cola for the trade, and in the course
of his testimony exhibited to the jury
and, of course, to the court, the APP
paratus used to gauge the state Of
contents of bottles, even after they
leave the works. The mixture Of the
drink, its method of being bottled
the bottle inspection, and general de-
tails, were all heard with interest by
the court and jury.
It was developed, when Mr. Crosby
testified, that he had bought out the
corporation before, and owned it at
the time the plaintiff, Ike Wallace
was injured and lost his eye by an
explosion Of bottle of coca-cola, IN
1911.

Investigation Into Soaring Prices
OF Gasoline Should Be Stringent

The investigation into the soaring price
of gasoline should be swift and stringent
Senator Stone before the Senate declared
that he had been informed that there were
several independent manufacturers of gas
oline and that all are selling at high prices.
Senator Martins resolution directing the
Attorney General to investigate whether
the rising prices are the result of con
spiracy, was adopted The resolution was
prefaced by preamble asserting that the
STANDARD Oil Trust controlled the gaso-
line output and prices"
Every senator here. knows" said Sena-
tor Stone, that consumers of gasoline are
being robbed by some thieves"
Who these thieves are it is not difficult
to guess, if one bases his surmise on former
manipulations of the Standard Oil Com
pan, and it is hoped that the investigation
will be real and searching, and productive
of results commensurate with the import
ance of cheaper gasoline, which has be-
come one of the crying necessities of every
day life.

Mad Race for Speed Curse
OF the American People

Railroad officials are divided in opinion
as to whether the blame for the recent dis
astrous wreck at Amherst should be placed
upon the towerman, who it is alleged by
some officials was asleep, and failed to give
the proper signal, or upon the engineer,
who it is said may have failed to give the
signal or disobeyed orders.
Engineer Leonard of the first section of
the train which pulled the death car, as
serts that he stopped his train on signal
originating in Ernst's tower Engineer
Hess declares he saw no signal when he
brought his section along at speed of
fifty miles an hour few minutes later
1t would seem that the investigators
need go no farther than the testimony of
the speed that Engineer Hess was making,
to fnd sufficient reason for the catastrophe.
The mad race for speed is the curse of the
American people today in more ways than
one, but it may be that in almost every in
stance where there is a railroad wreck the
trains are going at rate of speed that in
itself is fraught with danger, were there
nothing else to be taken into consideration.
And the people of this country are large
" to blame for this fact. It is the fast
flyer that is demanded. People go out
from their homes, day after day, and place
their lives in jeopardy for the sake of reach
! ing their destination few hours earlier,
not because it makes any real difference
whetherlthey get into New York or Chi
cago or Florida at night or in the morning,
but because there is in this country amania
for speed.
/ Life is too high geared In the Amherst
case it may be that the engineer or the
tower man or both were to blame But in
the final analysis of the case, it is the people,
demanding their fifty miles or more an
hour who are really responsible for most
of the railroad calamities Of this country.

Let Us Spend Pensacola Money
In Pensacola This Summer

Last summer there was a great deal of
talk about hard times in Pensacola, and
yet it is doubtful if ever before in the his
tory of the city so many persons went away
from Pensacola for the summer season
The Pan-American exposition had much to
do with this travel, of course, but whatever
the cause, the fact remains that there was
much travel both west and north, and
great deal of Pensacola money was spent
outside of Pensacola.
Pensacola should be one of the greatest
summer resorts in the South. Some day it
will be. But that day will not come as soon
as it should come, unless Pensacolians
work together to bring this about.
There is no reasonable excuse for any
one leaving Pensacola in the summertime,
for here one may find all the pleasures of
the outdoor life. Let us all make up our
minds to spend this summer in Pensacola
and put money in our pockets and Incl
dentally help the town we live in.
