Lewis N. Smith's $1,000 Dam
age Case on Trial Today
K. DUNCAN PAYS $100 FINE
Verdict in TOlenberg Appeal Gives
Clear County Road From Riddle
to Myrtle Creek
The damage suit of Lewis N. Smith
against Ihe Southern Pacific Co. was
on trial before a jury in the cir
cuit court tills afternoon. Smith,
who lives in North Koseburg, is su
ing the railroad company for $1,
000 for injuries received by being
struck by a switch engine while work
ing in the yards here as a section
hand in January, laud. He is rep
resented by Atty. Albert Abraham.
Counsel for the defense are Atty
Lelter, of Portland, and Atty. Dexter
Hire, of this city.
In his complaint, Smith alleges
negligence on part of the engineer,
Fred L. Heard, also on part of the
railroad company in not protecting
the section crew, of which he wns a
member, by a (lag. The defense of
Ihe company is that Smith was given
timely warning of the approach of
the engine by the sounding of the
whistle uud the bell and by the
shout of the section foreman. H.
Faulkner. In the collision, Smith's
left ear, arm and breast were in
jured, the ear seriously, according to
expert testimony. The case will
probably be given to the 'jury late
tills afternoon or earlv this even
ing. I-ong Standing Case Ends.
Ill the case of H. Wollenberg vs.
Douglas county, an appeal from a
road assessment of the county court,
a jury .Monday afternoon awarded
plaintiff $300. The victory is a nega
tive one for the plaintiff, however.
Wollenberg had been granted dam- ;
ages by tho county court in tho sum
of $496 for the opening of a county
road through the. C'hadwick place
between Kiddle and Myrtle Creek.
Ho hnd asked for $6,0110, so he ap
pealed the case with the result that
he has been allowed $196 less thun
the road viewers' appraisement ac
cepted by the county court. The rea
son for this is that it developed at
the trial in the circuit court that
some of tho land which was apprais
ed in favor of Mr. Wollenberg be
longed either to J. J. Chadwlck or
John 'Arzner.
Dhen asked since whether he
would appeal the case to the Su
preme Court, Mr. Wollenberg re
plied that he had not yet decided.
If he does not carry the case any
higher it will end a controversy of
nearly 20 years' over an effort to
establish a complete county rond be
tween Myrtle Creek and Riddle. The
stretch of road involved in this case
has for 00 years past been a link in
the rond between those two towns,
but only as a gateway. About 20
years ago a fight was begun to have
the gates abolished and convert the
stretch into a unimpeded county
road. Session after session of tho
county court wrestled with the prob
lem, which was fraught with many
obstacles, and. finally at this late
day it nppenrB that the gates will go,
giving Myrtle Creek and Riddle a
clear road between them.
Echo of ('. K, Ijosh Tangle.
Late this morning a Jury In the
case of Win. Beaman vs. Thos. Owens
return a Judgment of $240.67 for
the nlnlnttnV This ense marks the
' ciose of all litigation In this county
1 growing ont of the failure two years
ago of the C. IS. Loss Co., contrnct
; ors for the construction of the first
i three miles of the Drain end of the
I Drain-Coos Hay Railroad. Owens,
' as a sub-contractor, engaged Bea
' man to cut and furnish wood for the
construction camps, but when the
Loss Company went to the wall
Owens suffered proportionally and
could not pay Beaman. A multi
plicity of lawsuits, including that of
Beaman, followed, but in due time
the Loss Company straightened out
Its affairs and gradually satisfied nil
of Its obligations, enabling Owens to
settle also.
Kino of $100 Collected.
This morning saw the arraignment
In court of Kelly Duncan, a Myrtle
Creek druggist, on a charge of vio
lating the local option law at that
place. Duncan was Indicted last
May and entered a plea of not guilty.
His case was continued until the
present term of court, but when he
faced Judge Hamilton this time he
changed Ilia plea to "guilty." Judge
Hamilton imposed a fine of $100,
which he paid.
Up till 2:30 o'clock this afternoon
the grand jury had returned no In
dictments. The case of A. M. Lady vs. South
ern Pacific Co., an action for dam
ages for the failure of the defendant
to deliver a suit case, containing var
ious articles, consigned at Roseburg
for delivery at Riddle, has been continued.
LA GRANDE BANK FAILS.
LA GRANDE, Or., Oct. 12.
"Closed until the bank examiner ar
rives" was the sign that greeted a
would-be rush on the Farmers and
Trades National Bank this morning.
It is impossible to say now how
the finances of the institution stand,
but judging from the recently pub
lished sworn statement there should
be no' great shortage.
The bank is incorporated for $60,
000, and thus far haB been conduct
ing an apparently lucrative business.
The suspension came as a decided
shock to La Grande.
La Grande Itself has a largo
amount of money deposited and
school and county funds nro also In
the bank's vaults.
Individual deposits ond certificates
of deposit two weeks ago were
$190,000 and the liabilities at that
time were $279,000. How much the
bank's resources have deteriorated
since that time will only be known
after the examiner gets here. Cashier
Scriber Is in the midst of a nervous
breakdown and refused to be interviewed.
