( Special. ) A lawsuit which has created a great deal of Interest In this city was up before Judge Clifford of the county court and a Jury composed principally of leading busi ness men , yesterday afternoon.

The car came from San Francisco. It wua billed through to Omaha. In some manner the car was stopped hero and Mr. Peterson asked If he could not unload the car at once Instead of having to wait until the car went to Omaha and back again. The plaintiff maintained and bad evidence to show that ho permitted Peterson to unload the car hero upon the verbal promise idn the part of Peterson to pay the return freight from Omaha In case it was demanded by the company. The car was unloaded , and the company demanded the Omaha to Grand Island freight. McMeans advanced the money , but when he called on Mr. Peterson for the same the latter refused to pay. Jnat The defense urged that It wanted to get at the company to test the validity of the claim for freight from Omaha to Grand . Island when auch service was never rendered and denied that It had promised to pay the amount , The Jury , however , returned a verdict of $107 In favor of Mr. McMeans , The defense will appeal.
