Gamble Reyes Case

The supreme court Of the state. of
South Dakota has recently rendered
a decision to the effect that the plain
tiff must either accept the sum of
$1,013.00 in full or a new trial will
be granted the defendant in the case
of Gamble versus Reyes, Mcfarland
& Johnson representing the plaintiff
! and Sherin & Sherin the defendant.
1t will be recalled that, acting as
a deputy marshal, e. r. Keyes was
alleged to have forcibly entered the
premises of the plaintiff in search of
certain paraphe1malia, etc, thought
by the official to contain ~intoxicants.
Mrs. Gamble had denied him entrance
to the house, but it appears from the
| evidence that he entered, neverthe-
less.
Gamble brought suit for damages,
setting forth that the actual damages
were approximately 100000 and ask
ing for exemplary DANCES in a large
sum.
The trial resulted in a verdict of
about S21, O00.0 in favor of the plain
tiff, about $20,O00.O0 of which repre-
scented damages to his feelings, etc,
or, in other words, as exemplary dam
ages.
Judge Sherwood. who heard the
case, seemed to consider the verdict
excessive and granted the motion by
the defendants attorneys for a new
trial.
From Sherwood's decision the plain
tiff appealed. The supreme court
holds that in cases Of this sort there
can be no exemplary damages, and
that the plaintiff must accept the sum
Of $1,O13.00 shown to be the actual
damage or stand a new trial.
The case has not yet been settled
inasmuch as the plaintiff has q speci
fled period in which to determine his
future action.

Rome, Jan. Pope Benedict, ac-
cording to the Osservatore Romano,
in addition to sending expression of
regret. and sympathy to the bishops
of Padua and Treviso, has drawn the
attention of the governments of the

end, make innocent victims and dam
