. which, be win ocutencoil to servo n term
of from fifteen to thirty jonrs in stnte
prison, wns upheld In an opinion filed by

He Mobbed n number of ppron. in

of second decree murder.
Concluding that the verdlet wn not
excessive, the court sustained a judg
ment of $.1000 obtained by ltielmrd
Dolan, a trnlDc officer In Newark, who
was run down by a jitney owned hi
Joseph Oershkowltz. The Injuries in
flicted upon the officer necessitated his
retention in the hospital for more than
n month and the subsequent use of
trutchc.
A verdict of $1000 rerovered In
Julius Ppknis asainst the Pennsylvania
Railroad for fiile nrrest was reversed
by the Supreme Court. Pnkuis was nr
rested on a charge of stealiiiK hoes from
a freight car of the defendant companv
and after trial was acquitted. In his
suit for damages because of his arrest
the jury awarded a verdict of $1000. but
Oils amount was reduced by the trial
court to $1000 and from this the rail
Voad appealed. It was erroneous for
the trial court to refuse a motion of tho
railroad to direct a irnlirt against tho
plaintiff, the Supreme Court held.
The Supreme Court set nsidc a ver
dict obtained by Charles Itodgers

ployed by the ten company. Tn revers
ing the verdict the Supreme Court held
that the injuries Inflicted upon Rodger
were done by n Furvant not to advance
the- master's Interest or- in tbc line of
the hervant's employment ; but while
acting wholly, without the scope of Ills
duties and employment : in consequence
of which the companj Is not responsi
ble. If Joseph Oarsoiiy and Rernnrd Katz
will consent to a reduction in their ver
dicts against Helmn Harris as suggested
b the Supremo Court they may enter
judgments, otherwise a new trial of the
proceedings will be awarded. The suit

Upon the partnership claim tie ver
dict awarded by the jury amounted to

be excessive the court suggested the
partnership verdict be reduced fiO per

Atlantic City, June 10. The oyster

missioners leMordny.
Doctor Churchill nnd members of his
bureau hnc made an extensive study
of the ovstcr uucstlon and hnve devel
oped fuels which are proving of grent
advantage to oster men and to fisheries
commissioners.
Opposition of oystermen to legislation
which would con-erve nnd develop the
oyster was attacked in an address by
George A. Mott, of Trenton, president
of the fi-herics commissioners' asso
ciation. In New Jersey, Virginia and other
states, Mr. Mott declared, tho influence
which pcoplo of this class havn brought
to bear on legislatures has mado It ex
tremely difficult to get the proper" kind
of laws passed and has in tome cases
tesulled in entirely stopping tho activi
ties of the fisheries commissioners.
Sir. Mott said there' Is need to edu
cate state officials nnd others having to
do with the governing of the oyster beds
bv taking them to the fccenes of the
commissioners' activities and showing
them what tho conservation of shellfish
means.
Hrnyton A. Round, cx-prcsldent ot
the association and clerk of tho Shell
iith Commission of Rhode Island, said
the different states should take up
different lines of experimentation with
shellfish, so that their efforts would not
owilap, as they do at prescat. Ho
said any information gained by one state
in- easily available to all.
Coptaln Charles A. Covert, member
of the Board of Shell Fisheries of New
Jersey, spoke on "The Depletion and
Development of the Shellfish Industry
in Delaware Bay."
At today's session reports of the
various committees will be heard and
officers elected. There will be a num
ber of speeches and papers on shell
fish Hnd a dinner in the evening in the

'jPHE Charles T. Megee Company manages and operates steamers as agents
for the U. S. Shipping Board.
The Blue Star Navigation Company operates for the Farragut Steamship
Corporation, owners of steamships.
One of the U. S. Shipping Board Steamers the "FORT ARMSTRONG"
was tied up by the longshoremen's strike, at her loading berth, Pier 78,
South Wharves, Philadelphia, until
Captain Charles T. Megee, President of Charles T. Megee Company and
President of the Blue Star Navigation Company, took a radical step.
"We propose to get the 'FORT ARMSTRONG' away if it takes
every man we have."
And. it came to pass that, early Monday morning, the offices of the
Charles T. Megee Company and the Blue Star Navigation Company
were stripped bare of their operating and executive forces, which were
dispatched to the docks.
"SERVICE FIRST"
to shippers and the U. S. Shipping Board!
"If we owned the 'Fort Armstrong,' " said Captain Megee, "we
would exert every effort to load her. Why, then, should we be content
to rest on our oars, simply because the U. S. Government holds the
bag?"
We are good citizens as well as good business men.
