A dispatch from Atlanta says: In
the United States Circuit Court Mon
day, Judge Newmau presiding;,a.very
interesting suit for damage? against a
railway company vas logiin. ' The
plaintiff is John W. Harrison and the
defendant is Henry Finck; the receiv
er of the East Tennessee, "Virginia &
Georgia Railroad. The damages
claimed are $o,000. The plaintiff.
who is a commercial traveller, too v
passage last February on a train on
the East Tennessee, Virginia" and
Georgia, at Flovilie, his destination
being Jackson; only five miles away.
Not being provided with a ticket he
offered the conductor the price of the
ticket in currency, A: strict : rule of
the company provides that persons
not holding a ticket shall pay 25 cts
in addition to the amount of the fee,
receiving in return a rebate cheek,
whjch is cashed a.t any ticket office
upon presentation. This rule has
been in effect some time, and Conduc
tor Harris waa faniliiar with it, and
had enforced it frequently. The rule
was called to 'Harrison's notice, and
the conductor proceeded to collect the
bonus.. The passenger refused to pay
it. The conductor tried to get the
monfey, but Harrison was obdurate.
The train was stopped, and it was the
conductor's purpose to put Harrison
off, but the recalcitrant passenger not
relishing being forcibly ejected from
the coach, concluded that he .would
oomplyr with ih.eru.fe fcnd pay the
additional quarter. To hla surprise
the conductor declined to accept it.
and compelled fiiin'ip leave the train
He had to walk all the way to Jack
son. The suit is a novel one and is
closely watched by railroad men.
