The practical point states the committee.
Is that it is usually of sufficient duration
to allow the bitten person time to take the
Pasteur treatment before the development
of symptoms. and of sufficiently indefinite
duration to keep him in state OF anxiety
long after all probable danger is passed.
As the symptoms of the disease are to be
relied upon more than the post-mortem
finding, and as it takes from fourteen to
twenty-o days for the laboratory test,
the suspected dog. if he has bitten other
| dogs. and particularly if he has bitten n
person. says the committee, should not be
killed. but confined where he can do no
damage His death in few days would,
the committee believes, be conhrmatory
of rabies, while if he does not die it
would be positive evidence to the con-
trary.
Modification of the Muzzlc Order.
while approving in the main the laws
now in force il the District in regard to
the keeping and licensing of dogs, as well
as the laws in regard to the prevention
and suppression of contagious diseases
among domestic animals, and while urging
their strict and impartial Ell forcement.
would recommend that they tie modified
or amended:
First, so as to prohibit dogs at all times
from appearing at large without inuzzles
upon the street. public highways or else
where.
Second. so as to hold the owner liable
in civil action for any damage done by
his dog. whether record has been kept
of said dog or not at the collectors office.
Third, SO as to require the poundmas-
ter TO collect dogs during the night as
well as the day, to provide a separate
compartment in the wagon and at the
pound for each dog and to destroy them
in the most humane and practical way
possible.
Fourth, so as to provide for the proper
and safe keeping of any dog suspected of
having rabies, especially If it has bitten
other dogs or a person, until 1t is deter
mined definitely whether he Is rabid or
not. Moreover, your committee most
heartily approves of the recent order of
the District Commissioners requiring all
dogs when at large to be muzZled; but
would urge most rigid enforcement of
the provision. as dogs are often seen upon
the streets, not only with ill-fltting and
insecure muzzles, but with none at ALL
especially at night.
Furthermore, your committee would
urge that said order De continued in force,
if it can be done legally, until the enact
ment of the provision, previously recon-
mended. in regard to the muzzling of dogs.
Finally. your committee wishes it dis
tinctly understood that it is unequivocally
opposed to maltreating dogs or other ami
mails, or causing them to suffer in any way
unless 1t is absolutely necessary for the
good OF human society or their own good"

TRAFFIC IN B STREET.
Major Sy1vcster's Report on the Way
to Relieve the CrOwdinE.

Major Sy1vcster's Report on the Way
to Relieve the Crowdins.
The Commissioners have received from
time to time complaints about the crowded
condition of B Street, west of Seventh
Street, on market days. 1t has been
stated to them that this street is, at
times, practically impossible, owing to
the presence of market wagons and the
truck offered for sale. In order to have
statement of the facts from an official
source the Commissioners requested the
Police Department to make careful in
vestigation and to report to them. This
the Superintendent has now done.
He explains that B Street, within the
limits mentioned. is rendered practically
impossible on Saturdays, except along
the car tracks. This is caused, he thinks.
by the assembling of the wagons of farm
ers who sell their produce along the street.
He says that traffic is greatly congested,
especially during certain hours when the
wagons of purchasers drive into the street
in considerable numbers.
Major Sylvester suggests as prelimi-
nary to doing away with the crowding CT
this street on market days that both the
farmers and the market authorities be
consulted. He thinks that the street
should be kept clear for traffic, and he
believes that with the additions to be
made 10 the police force after July that
1t can be kept clear. but not without
friction, and he suggests that the friction
might be relieved beforehand by suitable
action on the part of the authorities.
The report states that the farmers are
now permitted to occupy space on the
sidewalks extending hve feet from the
curb but it adds no lines appear to have
been drawn with reference to the street
where horses and wagons are parked. In
view of the facts Major Sylvester recon-
mends that corrugated roof be erected
over the sidewalk five feet from the
curb and at least ten feet into the street.
He is of the opinion that this would pre-
vent scrambling and misunderstanding,
and would add materially TO the appear
ance of the locality. This, he admits.
would require legislative action, and for
the time being, he recommends that the
custom prevailing at the o Street market,
of standing wagons along the sidewalk
be permitted
