Chicago Court Dismisses Suit Of Albany Man CHICAGO, Jan. 28-UP)-The suit of an Oregonian who sought $90, 000 damages from the Southern Pacific railroad was dismissed to day because the Judge thought it should not be tried here. "These cases have been clog ging our court calendars, and materially interfere and delay the progress of other cases," said Su perior Court Judge Samuel B. Ep stein. The Southern Pacific does not run to Chicago, and is represented here only by a business agent. M. J. Hart, Albany, who lost a leg in a switching accident in Oregon in 1946, was able to bring suit here because- of a law permitting such actions at any place the rail road does business. The judge, however, said that while Hart could bring suit, the court could for reasons of con venience refuse to hear it. The railroad had asked dismis sal, saying it Was difficult for 14 defense witnesses to travel 2,300 miles to testify in a Chicago court. The judge said an influx of such cases into Chicago "commenced in 1941 when an enterprising group of lawyers saw the possibility of personal profits from the impor tation of them." 1 QGGO Si & AY?
