Judge Loofbourow Treats the Sinners Rather Mildly — Salvationists Quarrel About Secing the Girls H me. Mistake in a Telegram. The case of Z. T. Lindsey against the Western Union Telegraph company was de- cided yesterday afternoon by Judge Loof- bourow. In this case there was no dispute about the facts, it being purely a controversy of law. Mr. Lindsey, while selling goods in the west, had his sample trunks left at South Pueblo, Col., the hotel porter not getting them down tothe train in time. On reaching Canyon City Mr. Lindsey telegraphed back to have the trunks forwarded to Salida. In some way the telegram, in being transmitted, was made to read Salt Lake instead of Sa- lida, and the trunks were sent there. Mr. Lindsey was put to an expense of about in getting his trunks back, and was delayed in Lis business for about a weeck. He com menced this suit to secure dam claim was made that the compuny w. for th sults of its The com- ¥ imed that at the head of the sheet on which the message was written were the con- ditions in the form of a contract, by which the company was relieved of all liability for mistakes in sending messages, unless the sender paid the extra toll for having the mes- sage repeated back. Judge Loofbourow said there 1o question but that there were de- cisions in the state to the effect that these printed conditions wi ble, and that they constituted a contract. ad been held in this state that the busincss was such that mistakes could n nd that the fact of a mis ng was not sufficient evi of negleet on the part of the company. It scemed to him, how that the chavacter of the mistake in some s might indicate whether there was neg- lect or not. For instance, if words were omitted from a message it might be that at- mospheric interferences with the wires might have caused temporary interference with the ss and the company not have been negli- his case it scemed that no such in I\Ald have caused the mistake uld se words to be 5 y nor could it change lida into Salt Lake, He thought the of ator sending the dispatch must have care lessly read it wrong and sent it wrong. Des- pite the opinions g in similar cascs, in which the company not held liable, he thought that this e was sufficiently differ- ent to warrant him in deciding the ‘way he thought the luw ought to be and allowing the upper court to pass upon it. He therefore qwve a judgment in favor of Mr. Lind: ¢ the umount of the damages he penses to which the plaintiff had been put in getting the trunks £27. As to damages for delays and interrnptions to busi ness by reason of his not having his samples 1s show and sell by, he considered these ns ial mages, which could not be r under this action. The telegraph com- pany excepts to the judgment because it is in Mr. Lindsey's favor, and Mr. 3 ause he addition to the mere his trunk back.
