A Sudden and Unexpected Ending ol s Cels brslid Libel Case, '; - .. The damage suit for S50.U00 of Mc Kay v. The Charlotte Observer was on trial before Judge H. R. Bryan in the Meclenburg Superior Court Mon day. It was expected that the con tent would be long and biltt-r and a bi illiai.t array of counsel had been en paged on cither side. fh termination in-fore the olose cf court the same day it began was therefore somewhat of a surprise to all conterned. v A jury hi.d betn secured and the de-f.'iii-e succeeded in having some of the pliinjiff's depositions ruled out. ' Dur ring ihe noon recess the: attorneys of both hides had a conference and decid ed to submit the case without the intro dint'.on of any evidence.

The plaintiff, . by his "counsel 4hen staged to the court that he would intro duce no evidence at this stage of the case, bearing upon tho second issud fhe defendant, thereupon, announced, through its counsel, that it .would in- roduce no evidence bearing upon .the first issue. - The court thereupon instructed tl e jury that tho burden of the first issue oeing upon the defendant and it having ntroduced no evidence; the answer to hat issue should be "no,",; that the ilaintiff having introducd no evidence tearing on the second issue, the answer hereto Should be nominal dumages, to vit: Fiveicents. The- jury answered the issues as instructed by the court Thereupon on motion of the plaintiff's -: iun8el, it was adjudged that the plain- Iff recover of the defendant nominal Jamages, to-wit: Five cents, and that pursuant to the provisions of the stat ute, the costs be taxed."
