Solicitor J. W. Thurmond, as attorney, has filed in the Supreme Court the briefs in several important, caaes in suit, aggregating $70,000, against the railroads, and winch will in a way test the law regulating suits against foreign corporations. The suits are those brought against the Southern bv Hattie S. and J. S Fowler for $30,000 for injuries received on a tram; those brought by Mary E Able, of Lexington, for $20,000, for the death of her husband, and the suit for the estate of W. M. Crout, of Saluda, for the killiDg of Crout, for $20,000 According to a decision of the Uuited States Supreme Court a suit against a foreign corporation cannot be brought for more than $2,000 in any State courts and when the suits aggregate more tbey are transferred to the federal court. The attorneys especially in railroad cases have al ways gotten around this in cases of accidents by making either the engineers or conductors a party to the suits and this has always been considered legal. The decision will be awaited with interest as it is the first time that it has ever been brought up in this shape to the Supreme Court and will affect all railroad cases in the State of a similar nature.
