favor of the huabaad and one for $2,-
050 in favor of the wife. This was a
j claim for injuries and loss of services
; alleged to have l>een suffered through
jan accident in which Mrs. ljerch was
thrown from one of the defendant- com
pany 's trolley cars. The accident oc
curred several years ago, between Her

Too Busy to Defend Case
In the s*uit of Nellie Blessing against
Adam Rudy, based on a book account, a
verdict in the sum of $48.07 was ren
dered in favor of the plaintiff.
Kudv did not defend tho suit. A
messenger was sent for the defendant
but, according to Court Mouse attaches,
he sent hack word that he was too
busy with his work and requested a
delay of the hearing. Judge MH'arrell
thought Rudy wasn't much interested
in the case and directed the hearing to
proceed.

—Stocks showed some hesitation at the

moved upward, many of tho representa
tives issues scoring gains of a point or
more within the first half hour. United

advanced materially. The movement

steadily diminishing volume. Traders
expressed disappointment at the con
