The Stone-Webster corporation. Eli Melocich—just a poor laborer. This is the story of a poor man in Hanford’s court. Eli Melocich lost his right arm, had his chest torn open, suffered scars about his head and his body, and sustained last- ing internal injuries. A jury decided that the Stone-Webster engineering corporation was responsible for his accident, be« cause it left certain cog wheels in gravel machinery at Snoquale mie unguarded. ' The jury, after hearing all of the evidence, returned a vere dice of $12,262, the full amount asked for. But Judge Hanford yesterday set ordered a new trial. And the little word “any” was responsible for Hanford’s action. Hanford in instructing the jury used the word “any” in saying if the company was to blame for “any negligence,” etc. But Ke&t and McCord, the Stone-Webster corporation at- torneys didn’t discover this cause for a new trial. They asked | for a new trial on various grounds but Hanford overruled them, j then himself picked out that little word “any” and granted a new trial on that ground. “RESIDES,” SAID HANFORD, “$12,000 IS ABOUT |FIVE TIMES TOO MUCH FOP A WORKING MAN’S | HAND.” i Judge Hanford turned to Herbert W. Meyers, the at- torney for Melocich, saying: ; “I am going to grant a new trial because the word “any” | was used prejudicially in my instruction. And that is the only | question I want to hear you on. If you can show that the use | of that word was not prejudicial and reversible error, the mo- tion for a new trial will not be granted.” Meyers obtained a week's time to show that. And he piled up decision after decision—even a Washington case decided | within the last four months—that a verdict should not be set | aside on such a trivial “technicality.” Then it was that Judge | Hanford said that “the verdict is unjust, and five times too big.” The rehearing came up yesterday, and Judge Hanfrod switched back to the word “any” as his grounds for ordering |a new trial. “Then, your honor, it is because of the word ‘any’ that a new trial is to be granted?” Meyers asked. | i And Judge Hanford replied: “Yes, if you pin me down to that.” | Now Melicoch must fight his case all over again because |the judge discovered that he used the little word “any” at the wrong time. ide the verdict and | It's getting really tragic: When T: certificate at the polling place in Cinci when asked his occupation: “ I MAY NEED MY aft presented his nati yesterday for Put me BUSINESS registration, he said, down as a SOON.” lawyer. j a OF HELLO mabe” How ARE your TEE -HEE -TEWE YES, OW THAT Wut BE FINE HAHA.
