Argument Is being made this after noon to the Jury In the damage suit brought by Mrs. Bledsoe against the O-W. R. ft N. Co. for the death of her son, John Milton Morgan. The case will probably be turned over to the Jury at 6 o'clock. The plaintiff is relying chiefly up on the testimony of the companions of young Morgan who declare that Morgan was kicked off the train by James McMahan, a brakeman. How ever, one of these witnessed was dis credited when, under cross examina tion, he admitted that he had sworn falsely to his own name In an attempt to hide his real Identity. It was also brought out that he is an escape from the reform school at St. Anthony. Idaho. He gave his name as Sam Davis but later admitted it was Her bert McGee. The defendant relies chiefly upon the testimony of McMahon which was to the effect that, as the train pulled out, he saw the three men riding be, tween the cars and noticed that one of them was In a dangerous position. He signaled for the train to slow down he said, and Jumped aboard. He at tempted to pull the boy Into a safe position, he testified, bi;t his foot was caught In a safety chain and he was pulled under the wheels. McMahon testified that he lost his balance and fell also, striking on his head and shoulders. On cross examination plaintiff sought to show that the point, where McMahon says he fell Is 170 feet from the blood spots where Morgan was killed. They also put In testimony to show thst M'-Mihon Jumped off the train and alighted on his feet. Both sides are attacking the chief witnesses of the other and the case appears to hang upon the Judgment which the Jury has of tho witnesses. Arthur Clark spoke first for the plaintiff and was followed, by Attor ney Riley for the company. C. H. Carter will probably follow for the defendant and Frederick Stclwer will close for the plaintiff.
