Breeding a Lawsuit.

Times without nuinber has the press OF this
city called attention to the non-enforcemel
Of the city ordinance demanding the display
of danger signals at all distractions or pit
falls on the streets, between the setting and
the rising of the sun.
1t is to be hoped that the Phoenix Fire
Company will institute suit for damages
against the city for the injury done Mr.. Pat
terson, the driver, and for the disabiement Of
of the horses Of said fire company, on last
Wednesday night whilst on their way to a
fire over 11th Street bridge. The lacts ufthe
case are that while the Phoenix Fire Com
pany were passing out Claymonh street on
the other side OF Eleventh Street bridge
and the horses going along at lively
gait they ran into pile of quarried stone
dumped at the side of the street for the pur-
pose of walling the cellars Of some new
houses about to be erected.
feet wide and the stone lay across the street,
leaving only six feet width fora passage. The
night being very dark neither driver nor
hors. could see the stone, and both horses
were thrown violently forward amongst the
sharp.edged stons to the ground. Mi.
Patterson, the driver, unable to preserve his
balance WAS pitched forward on top of the
horses, both driver and horses being in very
perilous condition.
The members OF the company rushed to
the rescue Of their driver and of their two
favorite horses, and, .after considerable effort
rescued them from threatened death, at least
ruin. 1t was found that one of the horses
had received a cut In the breast about twelve
inches in length and dangerously deep, made
BY sharp stone, while the other horse had
also received several gashes.
Fortunately Mr.. Patterson, tho driver, was
saved serious injury by being thrown for
ward on the horses Instead of upon the stones,
and he escaped with a few bruises on his left
leg and right hand. Veterinary Surgeon
Scott was called on, who sewed the worst
wounds on the horses, but the animals
will be disabled from active duty for several
weeks.
There were no light signals whatever at
the stone pile, though city ordinance
requires Signals to be placed in proper posi-
tion every night.
AS the proper officials gave no heed to the
enforcement OF the ordinance requiring pro.
per display of danger signals the indications
for the city being muoted into an expense
suit Tor damages are quite hatteripg.
A pertinent question arising from this case
is, had MIR. Patterson been killed in this in-
stance who would have been liable to Grim
inal prosecution
