LAWLER WINS IN SUIT AGAINST RAILROAD COMPANY.

Jury Brings in Verdict for $3,150 for Damages by Fire Caused By C. & E. I. Railroad. The jury that heard the Lawler suit against the C. & E. I. railroad and made a trip over the ground themselves in order to estimate the extent of the damage, remained out only about an hour Saturday night and brought in a verdict for $3,130 for Lawler. The case was bitterly fought and the arguments of the lawyers were keen and at many times, eloquent. The defendant will have until the second day of the April term to make a motion for a new trial. Falling to get a new trial, they will appeal the case. ' • *
