Lacey vs. Washington Southern Railway Company, suit for $15,000 for personal injuries: jury and verdict for plaintifl for $2,500; "motion for new trial was made by the company's at- tory, Col. F. L, Smith, and judgment was suspended for 90 days. Mrs. Sarah G Smith vs. R. & D. R. R. Co. et. al.. Southern Railway Com- p iny ma le a party to this suit and cause submit red to Judge for decree in vaca tion. This is the suit to prevent the railroad company from using Wilkes street. Case Decided..In ; i ueuii i 'utiri for the city, Judge Nico], the jury in the case of Wm. H. Lacey against the Washington Southern Railway Com puny about 10 o'clock ou Saturday night returned a verdict in favor of Mr. Lacey for $2,000. The suit was for $15,000 for personal injuries. In October, 1S93, Mr. Lacey, with Mr. Moc.dbee, while crossiug the railroad track iu a buggy at the corner of Öro- noco and Fayette streets, was struck by a train. The horse was killed, the buggy smashed and both men were thrown out and hurt, Mr. Lacey beiug seriously injured.

Smith repiesenttd the railroad company aud Mr. Edmund Burke was- counsel for Mr. Lacey. When the verdict was aunounced Col. Smith filed a motion for a new trial and judgment was suspended for ninety days in order that au application may" be "taken. I; is understood that the* verdict was a compromise verdict, some of the jury¬ men thinking that the railroad was not responsible for the accident, while oth¬ ers favored damage for various amounts .a few for the full amount claimed. Iu his instructions Judge Xicol held that if Mr. Lacey had not exercised due diligence and caution in approach¬ ing the railroad crossing he was guilty of contributary negligence and the railroad could not be held responsible for the accident.

Creighton & Co.'s drug store where Dr. Asbby dressed his head. A street peddler who was entertaining a large crowd half a square aw ay found himself with¬ out an audience after Mr. Shaw fell. To Be Paved Temporarily..Su¬ perintendent Holden, of the Mount Vernon Electric Railway, in order to obviate any further inconvenience, will have the" intersections of King and Fayette and King and Henry streets paved temporarily where the tracks of his compauy intersect with those of the Washington Southern Railway.
