From Friday's Dan-.
This morniuir the case of Mc
Carthy & Strum vs. the Mis
souri Pacific Railway company
was on before Judge Ileeson in
the county court. The plaintiffs
are engaged in the grain busi
ness at Union, in this county, and
have during the time of their
ownership of the elevator in that
city shipped a great deal of grain
over the railroad, having a siding
built to the elevator." In the past
four years, the plamtills allege,
they received many cars in which
to ship grain thai were not in the
proper state of repair for this
purpose, and in order to permit
them to shin the grain it was
necessary for them to employ the
services of a carpenter to place
the cars in repair, there often be
ing a board torn oil" or the doors
not being in proper shape to ship
the cram. For the expense in
curred in the repairing of tin
cars the irraiu dealers hav
sought to secure payment from
the railroad, as the amount in
the last four years aggregates in
the neighborhood of S-.'OO, and
the defendant company refuses
to pay (he sum. Attorney C. II.
Taylor appears in behalf of the
plaint id's, while Alorncy Kennedy
of Omaha appears for the rail
