Court Stages Block Duel Ends With $17 500 Reversal

In a Cleveland courtroom a staged duel ended with Ed Stevens receiving $17 500 from Baltimore and Ohio Railroad after a jury found in his favor. The stunt involved railroad policeman Robert Annegan with a gun and attorney Craig Spangenberg with a foam rubber prop. Spangenberg, Stevens’ lawyer, struck Annegan twice with the foam rubber before the gun could be drawn, while Annegan claimed self defense after Stevens attacked him with a lantern earlier. The incident aimed to counter Stevens’s $25 000 suit over an Aug 21 191? encounter at a rail yard.
