Railroad Conductor Is Given $2,000 Damage-Relief Glsttse Ignored.
A jury in the $10,000 damage suit

1 The oaae is unique in Pennsylvania.
The jury entiiely ignored the olanae
wbtoh prohibits members of tha Pennsylvania Railroad relief department, to

damages and established a precedent that
might prove quite embarrassing in tbe
future, unless Jodge Jsmes Shull, of
Perry county, especially presiding,
should grant a new trial or tbe higher
oourt ahonld knock out the verdict.
When the jaryaame into Court Saturday morning and aaked if tbe release oo
the relief contract waa a valid oae the
Judge replied : "Tbat ia one of tbe
questions we submitted to you to determine." Teu minutes Ister they decided
tbe release waa not worth the paper it
Was printed upon.
Barnett claimed that be oould neither
read nor writs—both important requirements in a oondnetor—except to meohau-
ioally write hia name and distinguish
numbers on his orders snd freight cars
by comparison. All his icports were
written by other members of bis crew.
