Clear Him of CHARGES.

The declaration of innocence made by
DR.. Louis G. Duncan in reference to the

NO SHOES FOR MONKEYS.
An italian Organ Grinder in Court for
Allowing His Monkey to Go
Barefooted.

Washington. Dec. 27.-In the police
court today Judge Scott decided that a
monkey was not civilized enough to re-
quire shoes in winter time. The case
was that of James Florello, an Italian
organ grinder, who was charged with
cruelty to animals in having allowed his
trained monkey to walk barefoOted on
wet sidewalk. The monkey was in court
with his master.
It appeared from the testimony of G.
A. Snow, an agent of the Humane so
ciety, who made the complaint, that he
had been looking around for a case of
this kind for some time. He said he
considered it gross cruelty to compel a
tropical animal to walk on cold stones
with his feet unprotected. The monkey
might contract consumption, Mr.. Snow
said.
The organ grinder was defended by
colored lawyer.
Would you have the monkey wear
shoes?" he asked the Humane society's
agent.
Il have seen them wear rubber
Shoes said Mr. Snow.
F'lorello testified that he did not take
the monkey out on cold days. Judge
Scott said he failed to find that the de-
PENDANT had treated the monkey cruelty
and dismissed the case.
