Ten Year Legal Battle Ends in Settlement
Elkins June 14 The decade long dispute between A Spates Brady coal operator and member of the state board of control and the Western Maryland Railroad over alleged car discrimination during World War I ends in a compromise.

The case drew appeals to the circuit court of appeals in Richmond and the US Supreme Court of Appeals before the settlement. It was a famous railroad case with enormous legal costs.
