ATTORNEY PERKINS GE;S JURY TO LAUGHING Case of Wellington Allen vs. the Con- necticut Co. Will Go to the Jury To- day. In the civil superior court here on Tuesday the continued case of Well- ington Allen vs. the Connecticut Co. for damages for injuries received when te was knocked from a running board cf a car in Montville was resumed be- fore Judge Ralph Wheeler and jury.

Kelly, Mi- chael Kenealy, William Wcod, John E. Vaughn and George K. Crandall. The arguments were commenced be- fore noon and were nearly completed at 5 o'clock, Attorney Perkins having fifteen minutes mors this morning be- fore the iudze charges the jury. In his arzument Tuesday afternoon Attorney Perking got the jury to laughing as well as the courtroom, when he referred to the testimony of some New Londor aldermen concern- ing the number of seats on the car cn which the j laintiff was riding. They testifled, he s. and declared It the funniest thing he ever heard, in a courtroom, that they found plenty of seats on the car when they bcarded the car on Washington square. They got seats and there were others. Only that one of the thrce let the cat out of the bag by stating that they walked to Washinston square and boarded tle car there as it came into the city be- fore going back, their testimony woulc have been understood that they board- ed the car when it was southbound, whereas it was northbound when they got aboard. His description pleased tte jury immensely. FAIRVIEW RESERVOIR Is Now 160 Inches Below High Watar | Mark—Holding Its Own at Present.

REFUSES TO SET ASIDE VERDICT IN HORSE CASE. Judge Reed Hands Down Long Memo- randum of Decision on the Motion. On Tuesday Judge Reed handed down a decision denying the motion to set aside the verdict in the case of Thomas Howe vs, Geo C. Raymond and others, known as the Knoll Re- ward case, In the memorandum he says: This case has been in the courts for more than 15 years and tried to the jury4 three times. It is stated that at he second trial the jury stood 10 to 2 in favor of the plaintiff. If it is so | then 34 out of 36 men have found in the plaintiff's favor. That alone would cause me to hesitate before setting | this verdict aside and thus necessitate another trial. It is perhaps pot extravagant to say that it is nearly as important that the case be disposed of, as how it is dis- posed of. If the verdict is a conclusion to vhich 12 honest men, acting fairly and intelligently, might come, then It is only when the verdict evidence, so much so as to Indicate that the jury was swayed by passion, ignorance, partiality or corruption, that it _should be set aside. ‘Whether the transaction was a fraud | upon the defendants by Reynolds, the ayee of the notes, is only one element It is was true, the con- trolling element is, whether the plain- tiff took them with the knowledge of the fraud. It is claimed that he knew of Rey- nolds’ methods from the fact that he had knowledge of a similar transac- tion in New London, where men were asked to subscribe and form a com- vany like this, and that notes were n in the same way, and the same nd of blank agreements filled out as in this case. But there is no evidence that I recollect to show that these rniotes were fraudulent. The jury probably thought that af- ter signing and issuing these notes it would be no great injustice that they hould pay them, and on the whole T cannot say that in this they have shown either passion, ignorance, par- tiality or corruption. The verdict was for $1,332.43. Tt is not improbable that the case will be taken to the supreme court, where it has been before. REPORTS OF ITALIAN ATROCITIES DENIED.
