SerloiiN AlleKniluiin Minlo In .Support
of ( lie Motion ,
Damage tnilts have lost their popularity
around the county court house and n vordjct
for the defendant or nominal damages for the
plaintiff Is the rule that appears to become -
como established. The Jury In the suit of
Mrs. Empson ngalnst the city , In which she
sought to secure $5,000 for Injuries received
from a fall on n defective sidewalk , ac
quainted Judge Smith yesterday morning
with the fact that they had given Mrs. Emp
son a verdict of $1.
The consolidated damage cases ngnlnst the
Milwaukee Hallway company brought by
Mrs. Mary Butler nml W. T. Heath , after
occupying the attention of the court for two
days , was decided by the Jury In exactly
seven minutes from the time they entered
the jury room. The plaintiffs brought their
nctlon to recover damages amounting . to
$9U , which had been caused by water over
flowing upon their farm lands adjacent to
the railway tracks through the alleged negli
gence of the company's employes In permit
ting the ditch to become clogged. On the
ury were savcn men who had gone through
he Hood trial and broke the record for
ung Juries , and they were consequently n
Ittle proud of having nlso nssUtcd In mnk-
ng the record for the shortest time con-
umcd in the Jury room In reaching n vcr-
llct. Juries have given verdicts without
eavlng their scats , but seven minutes is
he shortest time In the hUtory of the county
ourt where a verdict has bciSn reached after
he jury retired.
The twenty-four days' pay , amounting to
IS , that each of the Jurymen received for
ils long and arduous labors In the Hood
lamago case Is beginning to be considered
neager compensation for all of the hard-
hips of the campaign. Yesterday , before the
urors had fully recovered from their grief ,
hey were given a new dose. Attorney Sims
n presenting a motion for a new trial , at-
acked the jury and severely criticised sev-
iral of them , supporting his criticisms with
he. customary nllidavlts. He charges three
of the jurymen with misconduct and speci
fies what It Is.
The motion for n new trial was presented
esterdoy morning and created almost a sen
sation. It was understood that It would be
rguetl during the afternoon and u great deal
oi ! Interest was manifested by attorneys ami
court loungers. During the day , however ,
ho attorneje agreed to n stipulation to llx
ho dnto of the arguments on next Saturday.
Thu attorneya for Dr. Hood ask the verdict
o be set aside and present categorically eighi.
or nlno reasons. They aver that the verdict
s contrary to law ; that H Is contrary to the
nstructlons of the court ; that Its \ contrary
: o the evidence and not sustained thereby ;
.bat it Is contrary to thr > special findings of
the Jury , and grossly Inadequate to the In-
urics and damages found by the jury to have
been sustained by the plaintiff ; that It oliould
)0 set aside on account of the misconduct of
Jurors George T. 1'helps , W. F. Sapp and J.
V. Hereld In discussing in the presence and
icarlng of other members of the jury In the
lury room matters In relation to the plaintiff
Jiid his wife , reflecting upon their charac
ters and reputations. They assert that the
i-erdlct was not the free , deliberate and fair
judgment of the jury , buc was a farced and
unwilling verdict so far as a portion of the
iurymen was concerned.
In support of these charges Attorney Sims
presents a lengthy aiildavlt , In which he de
clares that Juror I'helps several weeks prior
: o the trial declared that Hood was not hurt ;
that ho was a fraud and prosecuting a fake
case , and was not only not entitled to re
cover a cent from the railway company , but
chould bo prosecuted for blackmailing the
company. Ho declares that Juror Pliclpa
stubbornly and persistently sought to force
n verdict for the defendaat railway company
from the moment he entered the jury room
and used all of his powers In this direction.
Mr. Sims swears that N. M. Hubbard , Jr. ,
ono of the attorneys for the defendant , had
been eeen in a private consultation with
Juror Sapp prior to the selection of the jury ,
and that Hubbard was hoard to say In the
presence of a number of well known Council
Bluffs citizens that If Sapp were selected as a
juryman ho could be depended upon to eln
all ho coulel to secure a verdict for the rail
way company.
An order has been made for the attorneys
for the defendant to produce the witnesses
to substantiate his chargc-s , and at the hear
ing some decidedly Interesting proceedings
are anticipated.

She had been struck In the right temple and

Tlio city council met In eprclal pssloii last
night to consider protests ngalnst the Kmnt-
t\K of liquor licenses. Mayor Ensor wns ab
sent and President Kelly occupied the chair.
In connection with this matter X. I1. Foil ,

: cntlon of the council to the fact th.it a reo-
ullon had been passed by the council desig
nating The Omaha Kvenlng Uee tin the panor
u which applicants for liquor licenses should
publish their notices. The fact that all of
: ho saloon keepers did i.ot follow the direc
tion of the council In this matter showed very
plainly that these liquor dealers did not ad-
vertlso In good faith.
llarrett offered n resolution to the effect
that liquor dealers who advertised In good
faith In cither The lleo or World-Herald bo
granted their license. The vote stood 5 to 3
and was declared carried by the chairman.
The conncllmon voting against the resolution

HiiHi of an Oiiiilin Attorney.
An Omaha attorney , whose business runs
principally to collections , has hit upon a
plan whereby a debtor is Induced to call
at his olllce without any suspicion that he
will be confronted with a bill. This at
torney sends the debtor a postal card , re
questing him to call on a "matter of the
utmost importance to you. " After the sig
nature the words "foreign claim agcntra"
was stamped. A dozen or more residents
of this city , who have relatives in the old
country , received these notices the ether day
and hastened to Omaha , expecting that some
relative had departed this life and left them
a legacy. When the domestic claims were
produced and an early settlement urged , the
recipients of the request to c.itl becnme very
angry , nt least > ome of them did. In two
Instances attorneys were appealed to by the
angry debtors , but were Informed by i\\ \ \ !
legal lights that nothing could be done with
the "foreign claim agent. " as he had not
violated any of Undo Sam's laws In send
ing nut his requests to call ,

This is the brave policy on which the Midland flonthly
! ; the great Literary Magazine of the West , has undertaken during
the year 1897 to double its circulation. It makes a large actual
outlay to secure a large future income. Nor could this ex
penditure be better applied than in cheapening a great reference work that \
will prove the
"Guide Philosopher and Friend"
of toilers and thinkers alike in all ranks of society. As often as this worlc is
opened the Midland hopes to be remembered , and that by its bold sacrifice the
set was obtained at a nominal cost which will immediately thereafter revert to
the Publishers prices of $42. and $60. the set. Meanwhile all may be assured that the
Is truly worthy of its name , being
A New , Original , Thoroughly Accurate , Practical and Exhaustive
Work of Reference to all the Words in the English Language ,
with a Full Account of their Origin , Meaning ,
Pronunciation and Use , Treating also Things as
well as Words , and in an Encyclopedic Way.
