THE 1011111
Laidlaiv Again Frying to Recover
$530,000 as Damages.
so SUIT,
THE FAMOUS OASE’S HISTORY
It Has Been Passed Upon by Three J uries,
nn‘d Each Time the General Term
of, the Supreme Court Has
Upset the Verdict.
NEW YORK, J uno 11.—Thc fourth trial
of Willialn R. Laidlaw’s action against
Russell Sage, brought to recover $50,000
for injuries received in the dynamite'cx-
plosion in defendant’s "office in December,
1891, the cause of action being an alleged
assault committed by Mr. Sage in using
plaintiff to shield him from the explosion
when Norcross, the crank, made a demand
on the millionaire for $1,200,000, was be-
gun before Justice Ingrahaln and a jury
in Part III of the circuit court. ' In the
explosion which followed the throwing of
the bomb by N orcross Laidlaw received in-
juries from which, it is claimed, he has
never recovered.
The Three Previous Trials.
Of the previous trials, the first, before
Justice Andrews in the spring of 1893, re-
‘sulted in a nonsuit, it being held that the
burden was on the plaintiff to prove spe-
cific injuries that were caused by the al-
leged conduct of Mr. Sage, which he
Would not have received in any event
through his presence at the scene of the
explosion. The general term ordered a
new trial. holding that it was incumbent
on the. defendant to show that Laidlaw
was not moved to a position where he was
more exposed,
The second trial, before J ustioc Patter-
son, resulted in a verdict of $25,000 for
the plaintiff. The general term reversed
the judgment because of an inadvertent
separation from its context 5" an extract
from the opinion rendered cigtbe first ap-
peah‘which was read to the jury in charg-
ing them.
The third trial, which was brought on
before Justice Patterson last winter, re-
sulted in a disagreement of the jury, three
of the jurors holding for a verdict in faVor
of the defendant. The first four jurors ex-
amined were so fair minded that no chal-
lenges for bias were submitted.
Debs Must Return to Jail.
CHICAGO, June 11,—Eugene V. Debs
and the other officials of the American
RailwayUnion will be sent to the Wood-
stock jail Tuesday. The certified copy of
the order of the supreme court has been
received here and the United States mar-
shal was notified to return the men to jail.
The men under sentence of imprisonment
are: E. V. Debs, _G. W. Howard, S. Klie—
her, L. W. Rogers, James Hogan, W. E.
Burns, R. M. Goodwin and Martin Ei-
liott. The time the men will serve is a
disputed question. The original sentence
was six months for Debs and three months
for his associates in two different con-
tempt cases. the sentences being made
concurrent by the court. The defendants’
attorneys later had the sentences made on-
- mulative in order to take a desired legal
action and the time to be served is consc-
quontly a matter of dispute. It is thought
probable, however, that an effort will be
made to have Judge Woods reinstate the
concurrent sentences.
Preached of Death and Fell Dead.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., June 11.--A singu-
lar death occurred in the colored Baptist
church near Double Springs. The pastor.
Rev. Greenlcaf Lee, a young man, strong
and healthy, was preaching on death. He
worked himself into great fervor, describv
ing the tortures of hell. As the words,
“There shall be weeping and gnashing of
teeth,” issued from his lips he fell to the
floor and in a few minutes was dead. Doc-
tors pronounced the cause of death the rup-
ture of a blood vessel caused by excito-
ment.

HIS SOUND. MONEY grits
Presidency and} Believes That Mr.
Harrison Is Looking For An-
other Nomination.
Bos'rou, Juno 11.-—“I am not and will
not be a presidential candidate, ” said ex-
Secrctary of the Navy William C. Whit-
ney. who is visiting his mother and'broth-
or here in Brookline, to a reporter. ‘fThe
money question will undo‘ubtedly be the
issue in the next campaign,” said Mr.
Whitney, “and unless some hard educa-
tional convention it will prove a serious
matter for the Democratic party and the
Republican, too, for that matter.
“if the silver men should carry'the next
Democratic national convention, it would
split the party in two. The Democrats
must stand for sound money.” Mr. Whit-
ney was Very finphaticat this point in his
conversation, and the gioam in his eye in-
dicated very plainly how important he felt
the matter to be.
When Greenbacks \Vere the Panacea. r!
“You see,” continued the ex-sccretary,
“prominent men all through the west
have been preaching for the past 15 years
.that the free coinage of silver was all that
have maintained that by establishing
ratio between the two metals of 15% o G
to 1 this country could solve the financial
problem for the entire world, and that -
other nations would have to follow. These
peeplc have become so thoroughly saturat-
ed With this kind of talk that it will take
some time and much work to counteract
its influence. There are a good many
sound money men in the West and south, ,
andthe Memphis convention, I think, has
helped the cause along. ‘ ~
“We had this same experience in an-
other form after the panic of 1873, when
greenbacks were regarded as a panacea for
all the ills of the country, and that spread
throughout the whole country, and both
parties were obliged to take some sort ofa
stand on’ the matter, but finally the good
sense of the people. assorted itself, and we
haven’t heard much of greenbackism since.
Republicans and the Tariff.
"I think the people will eventually treat
this question just the same as they did the
greenback question: They want sound
then."
Mr. Whitney did not think the Repub-
licans would care to reopen the tariff ques-
tion and was doubtful if any one of the
eastern states would follow Illinois’ call
for a convention to consider the money
question.
When (ix-President Harrison’s visit to
New York was spoken of and reference
Was made to tho Dopew dinner, Mr. Whit-
ney smiled and said:
“ Yes, it looks very much asrif Harrison
'1 was after thg Republican nomination.”
t
.Mr. VVhitncy’s Changed Views.
NEW Your, Juno 11.-—Tho Evening
Post says: Thobhange in Mr. W. C. Whit-
ney’s views about money is extremely
gratifying. His first deliverance on his
arrival here a week ago was intensely bi-
metallic, and it was bimetallic, too, not
offhand, or at first blush, but after “hav-
ing given a great deal of attention to the
subject.” But he was not for lonely bl-
metallism, or for bimetallism by divine
ordinance, or bimotallism as “justice to sil-
ver.” He was for ”international bimetal-
creatcd by ”the co-operation of other na-
tions and commercial peoples. ” When
were we to have this? ”Within two or three
years” sure.
“strongest and most enlightened English
statesmen,” including the “brainy Bai-
fcur, ” are “in favor of it.” Those who re-
member that the first attempts at interna-
tional bimetallism through ”conference”
began 17 years ago. and that the safe and
proper bimotallists were then for more
confident'cf the co-opcraticn of England
than they are now, have smiled over these
earlier convictions of Mr. Whitney. We
are not surprised that a little greater fa-
causod him to abandon or greatly modify
them. He is new for “sound money.” Not
a word does he say about bimotallism of
any desaription. _
