Court alters.

Case Charles Winslow vs.. Charles Morrill,, was
decided in the superior court to-day. The plain
tiff owned a milk farm through which ran brook
where the cows watered. The defendant had
tannery above. BY washing wool skins in the
brook and using lime and arsenic, the water was
corrupted, spelling the milk, and consequently
the plaintiff lost many customers. Damages
claimed $1,000. Verdict for plaintiff for $500.

There is no such leader in France, at present

that he has been accepted by all shades of
Repnblicans as the proper man to supersede

POLICE OU1RAGES.
firlenced.

There is talk of forming an Anti-Police
Outrage Society II is time. PatrOlman Doyle,
who last Sunday so grievously assaulted Fran
els Williams that he subsequently died in
Bellevue Hospital, has been held to answer III
a comparatively small sum, and for tine present
at least he is at liberty. Meanwhile, Mrs.
Williams, widow of the deceased, is locked up
as witness. The worst of the matter is that
Williams might have recovered if his case had
received early enough attention. He lay groan-
ing and bowling with pain all day Sunday in
the Tombs. A surgeon dressed the wounds of
his head, but no other attention was paid TO
him or to his complaints, it being taken for
granted that he was under the influence of
Intoxicating liquors. Finally, at 10 o'clock on
Sunday evening the ambulance was sent for,
and he was taken to Bellevue. The physician
there was naturally indignant. The man, he said,
would have had a chance of his life if he had
been brought in earlier, instead of being kept in
the station house until he was dying. How he
received the fatal rupture is one question
Officer Doyle may or may not have been guilty
of undue violence it is for jury to pass
upon that point; Williams may have been
properly arrested he may have been a diff
cult man to arrest; but he certainly might
have been approached and assisted as he lay
half dead in his cell.
If we had the Anti-Police Outrage Society
which is talked about, its first business now
would be to find Out-1. Whether Williams
should have been arrested at all. 2. Whether
the violence with which he was treated was
unnecessary or caused his death. 3. Whether
he was properly cared for after his arrest.
When Policeman Doyle is tried for the assault,
if he ever is tired, the public will have another
opportunity of looking into these matters and
we hope that 1t will look sharply.
