Fuchs was tried before Justice liuck for de stroying a fence belonging to the Mt. Hood Itallroad Company, near Sum mit Station. Fuchs was represented by Attorney K. C. Smith, and the nillroail company and state by J ay lie & Watson and Deputy District Attorney K. H. Hartwlg. The de fendant was found guilty, but on the recommendation of the attorneys for the complainant for a light sen tence, Fuchs was lined $10 and costs. The case grew out of the attempt of Morgan A Keller and the defend ant to place a crossing across the tracks of the railroad company 700 feet west of the county road, and which had Ut-n reported on adverse-j ly by .1. L. Henderson, T. A. lteavls and W. I., ( lark, a board of viewers appointed by the county court at the request of a number of petition ers In that neighborhood. The board of viewers recommended that the roail follow along the right of wny of the railroad from the crossing to connect with the new road, and the railroad company. It was stated, offered to pny part of the expense. It was suggested to Zeller anil Fuchs that they circulate a petition for this purpose last April, and bring It before the county court. As noth ing was done about It, the company recently erected the fence to protect It agnlust damage suits. Fuchs, It was proved, tore down the fence. He was then arrested and brought Into court.
