GRAIN CASE PRECEDENT
GOES TO DEFENDANT

With hardly more than 10 minutes
deliberation, the jury in the case of
Marion Jack and John Balm VS.. the
Farmers Union Grain Agency last
evening returned a verdict for the de-
fendant. The case has been under
way for five days, having been called
Monday morning at o'clock.
The suit, for s5232, alleged damages
to seed wheat cleaned in the defend
ants elevator, attracted widespread
attention in this section, owing to its
being without precedent in regon. The
plaintiffs, upon whom the burden of
proof rested. were unable to prove. to
the satisfaction of the court and the
jury, that the crop allure alleged was
due to faulty handling of the seed
wheat
With not more than half of the jury
consisting of farmers or men inter
ested in arming the verdict is consid-
ested In farming the verdict is consid-
such cases. Whether the decision will
have an important bearing on the
cases following, with Strand & Smith
as plaintiffs, remains to be seen A
slightly different form of complaint
was made by these plaintiffs.
