JUDGE HOWARD C0RRECTS RE-
GARDING NEW YORK SUIT

Some time ago THE NEWS receiv-
ed copy of the Commercial and FL
nancial World, published in New
York, containing on its news page
heavily-marked article regarding a
suit which Judge H. Clay Howard,
of this city, had instituted against
a banking firm of New York, Bret
tung & Co. THE NEWS, seeing moth
ing in the item but a news feature,
published it, without suspicion
that it was inspired by one of the
parties interested. Judge Howard
gives us his side of the story, as fol-
lows:
Editor BOURBON NEWS
your paper published what pur-
ported to be a New York article con-
corning my suit against the Brei-
tung Company. 1t states that the
court dismissed the suit; that after
the trial, the court held that Judge
proof of his claim *** that He,
(Breitung), is about the last man in
the world to resist just claim, but
he knew that Judge Howard had no
shadow of right on his side, and
that the courts would so decide.
This statement is unfair, and is
incomplete in that it suppresses the
| fact that / was awarded a judgment
for about nine thousand dollars,
| CSC, 000.000), including interest and
costs, which the Breitung Company
had owed me since 1915, for salary,
and for moneys paid out by me.
1.-The case had previously been
taken to the New York Court of APP
peals by Breitung & Company upon a
question involving the validity and
construction of the contract sued on.
That court decided that, in forfeiting
the contract l had obtained from
Peru, the company had destroyed my
interest in it, and that they were re-
sponsible to me for it's value, in dam
ages, in not performing the contract
IT had accepted with Peru. The case
was then remanded to the Supreme
Court, which corresponds to our Cir
cult Court, for trial. This construc-
ton of the contract confirmed the
opinion of my attorneys from the be-
ginning, and thereafter all concurred
that they could see no defense that
could prevent their recovery of a
large verdict Judge Alton B. Par
ker was my chief counsel, assisted by
former United States Attorney, Hon.
Snowden Marshall Without intend
ing to reflect upon the court, in any
way, my attorneys were of the opin-
ion that they were prevented, by the
courts rulings, from presenting the
case, except in part, and by these
rulinpS the case did not go to the
jury on the question Of damages.
Yours truly,
III. CLAY HOWARD"
