Licensed Animals stolen By the
Catchera-A Ladyss Complaint.

Mrs. Peter Kestler of No. 1908 Bloom
field street, Hoboken, complained 10 Re-
corder McDonough this morning that her
little pet dog had been picked UP by the
dog catchers despite the fact that it wore
a license tag and a muzzle. 1t has been
q practice of the dog catchers of late to
impound every dog they find on the
street, whether muzzled or not. The
muzzles and license tag are quickly re-
moved after the unfortunate dog is cap
tured and then when the owner appears
at the pound to redeem his pet he is
told that his dog was without both.
Mrs. Kestler aid that she paid $3.50 to
equip her pet with a tag and muzzle and
declared that it was never allowed on the
street without them. Recorder NC
Donough gave her a letter commanding
Poundkeeper Van Colt to either release
the dog or produce evidence In court to
prove that the animal was not wearing
the lawful requirements when captured.
