COULDN'T FIX THE RESPONSIBILITY,
A. NJ. Byers Il Co. Acquitted of Destroying
Mary Solinski's Joboat.

Alderman Hartman last night held hearing
In the case of Mary Solinski versus A. NJ
Byers d Co. for malicious mischief. The charge
is based on the removal of joboat owned by
her from the river bank in front of Byers &
Co.'s mills, on the Southside
AT the hearing last night the prosecutor pro-
duccd a number of receipts for money which
she had paid to Assistant Wharfmaster Corliss
for the privilege of locating there. When her
boat was removed it was totally destroyed, and
Mrs. Solinski says that all her household goods
were also destroyed. The defendants however
were discharged on the grounds that it could
not be proven that the men who removed the
boats were ordered to do SO by A. NJ. Byers &
Co.
The hearing in the other two cases against
the firm. on the same charge, have been post
poned until next week.
