On the evening of Auguet 23. 1003,
C. E. Hchaffner bought a Pullman berth
In Augusta for Atlanta. He eet up
that no conductor was aboard the
sleeper, and that It was looked after
only by the negro porter.
When Hchaffner awoke the next
morning a two-carat diamond, valued
at 3300. u 320 bill. 33.65 In silver and
two raxors, valued at 86, were mleslng.
Hchaffher brought suit against the
company for damage. On trial of the
case the Pullman . Company moved u
nonsuit on the ground that Hchaffner
had not proven that lie had the prop
erty when he got on the car, nor had he
proven negligence on the part of the
company.
The court overruled the motion and
It went to trial. Schaffner got a ver
dict for 3291.37. The company appeal
ed, nnd the supreme court sustained the
lower court.
