TRIAL BEGUN YESTERDAY.
Case of United States vs. Seafert Itrnw.
Itefd re the United States Court.
The third trial of the United States
va. Seufert Bros. Co., an action in con-
demnation of lands for right of way for
the proposed government boat railway
at Celiio, wbb commenced in the United
.States district court yesterday afternoon.
TKTb case has been tried twice before, in
each instance the verdict having been
set aside by the court, upon the ground
that excessive damages had been award
ed. Although a jury of twelve men
two different times viewed the grounds
over which the right of way passed, and
in this way estimated as near aB possi
ble the extent of damages Seufert Bros.
sufTered bv having this right of way run
through their land for a distance of
about eight miles, still Judge Bellinger,
who had never seen the grounds and was
ignorant of its real value, knowing but
little in comparison with the jury as to
the damages, has taken it into his own
hands to set aside those verdicts.
These damages were awarded upon
the strength of the contentions of the
defendants that the surrender of the
land and the construction cf the boat
railway seriously impair, it it did not
destroy altogether, valuable fishing fa
cilities. The land itself is not claimed
to be wortli so much, but a high value
is placed upon the advantages of the
contiguous waters for fishing purposes.
The jury came up on last night's
train, and this morning left in a private
car to look over the grounds. The jury
men are: B LagJdon, Union ; John
lid, Heppner; Ii Cox, St Helens ; CL
Emerson, Hamilton ; C V Kuykendall,
N H Perkins, North Yamhill; J J
Cooke. Oregon City ; A M Coe, P Pear
son, Portland; P J Bedinu', Marquam ;
J P Noe, Needy ; Abner Briggs, Dilly.
They are accompanied by Judge Lionel
R Webster, who is Seufert Bros.'s attor
ney, while Judge Moreland is acting on
thu part of the United States, in con
junction with United States Attorney
Hall.
Judge Bennett of this place was Seu
fert Bros, attorney in the last two cases,
in conjunction with Judge Webster. It
was impossible, however, for him to get
away, nnd as Judge Beilinger would
not put tiio case oil", lie may not be nblo
to take part in this trial.
