KILLED BY sTEER-A VALUABLE
HORSE GoRED TO DEATH
wild steer caused great excitement and terror
in the Sixth Precinct of Williamsburg late yester-
day afternoon, and the death Of a twelve -yearold
gil was only prevented by fortunate circum-
stance. The steer was one Of lot that was driven
through Bushwicl-ave. to the slaughter house of
Levy & May, in Jehnson-ave. When the steer
left the herd 1t was followed by droyer who
attempted to lasso 1T. Dashng wildly down
Montrose-ave the steer scattered PEDESTRIANS right
and left.
Little twelvc.y year.old Augusta Dorner, of
Boerum.st, was not agile enough, and the steer
caught her upon its horns and with vicious
upward fling of its head sent the child flying
through the air. The girl landed in bank of
builders sand about twenty feet away from the
steer and only received bad shadng-up.
The wild animal ran along and turned up
Montrose-ave., where drover in
wait for it. The steer made dash
for him, and he jumped behind the horse Of
Albert Lounsbury, of No. 1872 Conseyea-st which
was standing near Bushwick Place. The steer
plunged its horns into the horse and threw 1t to
the ground. The animal was valuable one. 1t
died half an hour after.
The steer was finally captured, but when the
owner of the horse tried to find out who owned
the steer he was told that it was a stray animal
and that no one was responsible for its actions.
