case Of false pretences reported on Thursday
by Mr.. PAUL, OF 934 street northw west, turns

appears that the owner of q block oI houses
on r street received the water rent bills for

make the collections on the bills. The
clerk by some mistake took Mr.. Paulls place
as one Of the houses and presented bill for

thing wrong. made inquiries at the water de-
pArtment, and all knowledge of the collector
being denied he reported the case When the
