Plaintiffs Favored
In Decision Regarding
Famous Cloquet Fire

Duluth, Mimi, Sept. 16.-The
judges of district court, sitting en-
banc today, handed down q decision
In favor of the plaintiffs in the fa-
nous Cloquet fire cases against Unit
ed States Railroad Director w. D.
Hines as wartime manager of the
Great Northern railroad. The deci-
sion gives damages to 27s plaintiffs
and involves in round numbers $3,-
fires of October IL, 1918. The deci-
sion is looked upon as of still greater
importance because it fixes the liza
bility and origin of the fires in the
Cloquet district and will have direct
bearing on other suits which will in
volve about $1O.000.00O.
In the decision handed down today
the judges of district court say in
their memorandum that they experi-
enced no difficulty in placing the ori-
gin of the fire at mile post 81 on the
a crescent shaped area through sec
tions four and five in township 4s-17.
The fixing of the origin of the fire
is regarded as the most important
point, for it will be the basis for al
most all other suits growing out of
the famous fires which swept the
country surrounding Duluth on the
date mentioned. causing immense fin
l. ancial loss and great sacrifice of life.
The decision has been looked for for
