KELLY CASE REVERSED

The $4,000 verdict recovered by
Mrs. Addie Kelly, as Admrx. of M.
S. Kelly, against the Chesapeake &
Ohio R. r. Co. some months ago in
the Montgomery Circuit Court, was
reversed in the Supreme Court of
the United States and remanded
here for re-trial because or errors
in the instructions as shown by the
following Washington dispatch:
Reversing decisions of state
courts in Kentucky and other
states, the Supreme Court Monday
held that juries should be instruct
ed that in awarding damages under
the Federal Employers Liability
law that 'fair cash value of the
damages suffered by beneficiaries
of employees injured or killed,
should be awarded rather than a
sum equal to the full amount of
money the benefciaries would have
received during the period of de-
tendency. The court set aside a
$4,000 verdict rendered in Mont
gomery county, KY, in favor of
Addie Kelly, widow of Matt Kelly,
an engineer, killed while at work
for the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway
Company"
