The interest which is felt by our citize11.s in the subject of the rem. oval of the J:ohnston Harvester W arks from Brockport to Batavia, cart not be better indicated than by the large attend.anc:e at the pnblic meeting at. the St. Ja..mes Hotel last evening to consid.er the matter and discllss it with Mr. Charles Dewey, President of the company, and Mr. A.. C. Sherwooil, Secretary, who were pres- ent. The gentlemen soon after their ani11al here early in the even- ing were given a ride about the vil- lage in company with Mayor Bailey, D. W. 'fomlinson and their local a~ent. Th[ r. 'John Lincoln of Corfu. They were shown the vacant lot be- tween the two railroads and ex:tend- ing east from the Wiard Flow Works to Cemet-ery street, as being a de- sirable location for their works. They returned to the hotel greatly pleased 1vilh the appearance of the village. The hotel parlors 'vere very scm~ £!led with occupied chairs, and many citizens were standing, while in; the hall11.nd out on the veranda there were .as msny more of our btisiness men who could not gain adnittance, The l!keeting was called to order by Mayo;r Bailey, who called Wil- liam 1'rrrell to the chair. Mr. Tyrr~ll briefly stated the <Jbje(t of the meeting, and said that the re- moval of the Harvester Works to Batavia Nould give the town renew- ed prosperity and be of lasting bene- fit. The company had exlo:nsive worlts in ]rockport and the ex:pense of rebuilding them anywhere would be S()mething large. He did not kn01'r wbat inducements the gentle- men ex~ected, but thought that in the way of shipping facilities, low taxes,. etc., no more desirable Jllace than Batavia could be found. He called upon the gentlemen to state to the meeting what they desired in the 1vay ()[facilities for a new loca- tion, Mr. ])eweysaid: \I arnas much surprised, although in a different directtoti, to see so many of Batavia's busi11ess men to-night, as I was whell ollr works burned. lllad no idea that the meeting was to be so large. I must say, however, that we certainly have a good opinion of the j}roposed location whid1 has been sliown us. In Brockport we were a.,..ay from the railroad, and are anxious in looking up a new lo- cation to get on to the line of one or more road&--the more the better. We ~trenow employing about soo men who are turning out an average of fifty machines a day. Wllen we rebuild we will increase oar works to give employment to from 700 to 1,ooo m.en. About ten acres of ground a1·e needed for our establish- ment. \Ne are not favorable to any one location. We have induce· ments to go west, representatives having idready visited us from 1\hch- igan, Ohio, Chicago and Pennsyl- vania. 'Transportation is a great item in our business, and we fll.USt look car~fully to a point where. good rates are likely to be obtained to all points. We send our machines to all sections of the world, or ,ll.t least to all grain growing countries.. Our buildin~s will doubtless cost. us be· tween $6o, ooo and $7o,ooo, \hile the machinery will cost a larger sum. In regard to location we want to decide I'Vithin thirty days, if possible, amd get to work on our buildings so that. we may resume our business and turn out onr machine:> for next season's trade. We will take Bata- via into serious consideration, and as you have been first in making a pro\)osition you shall be first to re- ceive a.decision. What we;do we will do .quickly.\ Mr. A. H. King made a .sugges· tion ih.at the chairman appoint a committee to confer with the Bo11.rd cif Directors of tire Harvester Com- pany, the comtlllillee previously to ascertain what a sui truble site can: be _purch1\sed f0r and what facilities a..nd inducement's Ba iavia can offer.

Ladies, ase \YEs TooTH POVYJ)ER. The jury in th~ action of Henry To~er, an infant by guardian, ,etc., agamst the Central railroad ·com- pany, reported yesterday afterno0n and gave the plaintiff a verdict of $8,ooo. 1'heaction was based uj>- on an accident by which the plain- tiff, a boy, was seriously injured ·by being struck. by lhe ''pusher\ Rt tile Cemetery street crossing in this vil- lage on the I 7th of June, ,,s Sr. He and his older brother Willie had been delivering a load of brick to a car standing on a side track, and were retmniDg home about nine o'clock in the evening, TheydroV'e their poor old horse on to the, track and were almost imm~diately struck by the \p11sher\ which. was backillg to Byron at an enormous rate ()f speed. Willie Tozer was killer! Ollt- nght, and Henry was so badly 10 jured that he will probably never recover. il suit to recover datnages for the boy who was !tilled was tr1ed last November and resulted in a. ver- dict of .f.!4, ooo. The causes were conducted by W. C. Watson a[ld M. P~ck, Jr. The portion of the two verdicts, amounting to $1 z,ooo, which the Tozer family will receive will be a great he! p to them, as they are in rather needy circumstances. The suit of Edgar C. Hamlin of Pavilion against Joseph 0. Greene, as Commissioner of Highways of of the town of Alexander, 1csuhed rather ingloriously Jor the plaintiff. When tile case was gtven to the j11ry this mor.ning after brief addresses by S. E. North, the defendant'scoun- ~el. and by l\1. E. Butlet of Vlar- saw for Mr. Hamlin, a11d the Judge's charge, they retired, but re- turned in seven minutes with a ver- dict of no cause for action. icting conscien.tiously there was noth- ing else for them to do. The particulars of the Ean1lin case are as follows, according to the evidence: It is claimed that as he was driving between A.lexander md Attica on lhe a sth of October, I 8r9. his horse fell tnrough a highway bridge about half a mile south of the former village, and he was thrown trom the buggy and verv badly injured. That he struck lip- on his ngt1t foot and that his 'left leg was pnrtially paralyzed, An eye- witness to the accident, however, te&tified that Hamlin was not tluown from the boggy, but that he alighted from it when his horse stopped, Hamlin claimed to be terribly in~ jured and on one occasion l1e went to Roch.ester to be examined l>y Dr. Moore. 1\fter the examination he was seen by the doctor's son and a policemen to drop his crutches, !Zp· on wh1ch he had hobbled lo the physician's office, and run ''like a. white head'' for the depot, fearing that he was late for the train, The policeman thinking tile action SIJS- picious tried to catch him, hilt was not sufficiently fleet of :loot. The defendant's attorney, in his address to the jury, denominated Hamlin a. humbug, an impostor, a quack nnrl an advent11rer, such being his repu- tation where he is known. james Gaffney, of Byron, a~red nineteen years, is another wlJo sues to recover damages from the Cen- tral railroad for alleged personal in- juries. He was driving a yotmg eolt, which had just been broken, upon a public highwav in Byron, and the animal took fright from a lot of cinders whicb had been piled up on the side of the road. The railroad company had been lviden- ing the road·bed and had also wid- ened a cattle-guard, which they had not properly protected. It is claim- ed, too, that they threw the dnders 'Where they 'Were. When the h()rse became frightened it ran furiously and threw the wagon into the ex:ca- vation which had been made for the cattle guard and threw yoang Gaff- s. Price 'One cent ney out, He landed just behind the horse's :neels. At that instant a train rushed by alarming- the colt still more .and it re!ilore!l, striking ~affn.ey wit~ its hoof al[)d rendering h1m m~ens1i>le. Then. it stamped upon h1m, and among «Jther injuries wounded his knee badly and it is feared crippled him ~Jermanently • The action is on tiial, A Ba:na1aa G:.ud.
