FITzHUGH's $sOO,0OO SUIT
 AGAINST CENTRAL VERMONT

The S200.e0O damage suit of Earl H. Fitzhugh of New London, former presi- dent of the Central Vermont railway, against the Grand Trunk and Central Vermont systems, alleging conspiracy to ruin his career, is set for trial today tTuesday) before Judge William H. Sawyer in the superior court in Concord, N. H.
 Fitzhugh alleges the railway companies malciously forced his resignation and prevented him from obtaining any posi- tion in the line of work in which he has experience.
 He says that while he was president of the Central Vermont he was delegated to get charter rights for the two rail- roads in Massa chusetts, Rhode Island and New Hampshire.
 He says that while seeking these rights the officials of the two roads were nego- tiating with Charles S. Mellen, the presi- dent of the New Haven road, which con- templated the abandonment of the pro- posed extension.
 They sought his approval to the agree ments, he says. but he declared it would be breach of faith with the residents of New England. At the time, he says, he had nearly completed arrangements for the rights in New Hampshire
 According to his complaint, he was then called before the United States grand jury to tell what he knew about the alleged agreement between the defendants and President MeIlen, at which time he de- clares, he told the truth.
 Following his appearance before the grand Jury, he alleges, the defendants con spired to ruin his career by saying that he testified falsely before the jury They also charge, he says, that he was attempt ing to secure the charter rights without their authority.

OWNER RESPONSIBLE FOR
 ACTS OF BORROWED CAR

Judge Edwin s. Thomas announced in the United States district court at South Norwalk Monday morning, through As sistant United States District Attorney George Cohen, following the disposition of some seized automobiles, seized by the government for having been used in rum running" that from now on his ruling would be when person loans his car to another, that the owner of the car will assume full responsibility for any acts that might be committed by the person to whom he loaned the car. There are too many cases here where the plea is that the car was loaned and the owner did not know the use to which it was to be put. In the future I will accept no more such | excuses, and the owner must assume full responsibility"
 This is one of the most important rulings that has yet been issued regard ing car seizures. A number of cars were returned by Judge Thomas Monday morn- | ing.
