taken in the case now on trial In the
circuit court, wherein the O. R. & N
company Is being sued In the sum of
17500 as a result of the accident at
Perry, wherein Donald Russell lost
his life. The court room has been
crowded with spectators all day. The
plaintiff has finished Its case, having
called IS witnesses. The defense, so
far, has placed two witnesses on the'
stand. At the conclusion of the tes
timony of the plaintiff the, attorney
for the O. R. & N. filed a motion of
non-suit on the grounds that the
plaintiffs had failed to show any neg
lect on the part of the company. This
motion waa overruled. The court also
overruled an application to have the
