BLACK TOM BLOW-UP
CASE In HIGHEST COURT
Appeal for Rehearing of Damage
Action Affects 3,494 Suits.

Attorneys representing the I.ehigh
Valley Railroad yesterday filed in
the Supreme Court application for a
rehearing- of the case in which the
railroad was called upon to pay s23.-
6Sl for damages caused by the Black
Tom explosion in July. 1915. The brief
asks for writ of certiorari in the
case of the New Jersey Fidelity and
Plate Glass Insurance Company
against the Lehigh road which was
decided by the New Jersey courts.
Former Secretary of War Lindley
NJ. Garrison, chief counsel for the
railroad interests, will argue the case
before the Supreme Court Monday.
The appeal will be asked on the
ground that the Lehigh Valley Road.
in whose cars the high-power explo-
sive was stored, had complied with
all rules prescribed by the Interstate
Commerce Commission for TRANSPORT
tation of explosives and that the New
Jersey courts exceeded their juris-
diction in finding a Judgment against
the road.
A reopcning of the case would in
volve future settlement of about 3.4s4
cases, aggregating over s12. IS, 81
