DRAGGED CALF BY HIS EARS.
Cruel Treatment of Animals on the
Bull Street Dock.

The surroundings at the wharf foot Of
Bull street presented anything but an at
tractive sight yesterday afternoon, a short
time after ten calves shipped from Bluff
ton had been dragged onto the wharf.
The head of society for the prevention
Of cruelty to animals would have had his
hands full for time, at least.
Nine of the animals, which We're ship
ped on the steamer Dore6ta for Say an
nah butcher were strung to a post by
small ropes not long enough to allow
them TO lie down without tightening the
rope and chok,n them. These were able
TO walk after being released on the boat,
but some two or three fell from exhaus-
ion after being tied ashore. The tenth
animal could not stand when
released on the boat, and af-
ter resorting to many forms of
excoriation, the men dragged it by the
ears ashore. where it fell, and was left
living on the dock. During this time wag-
ons were carelessly driven over the ami
mails tail.
Policeman No. Is was at the wharf dur
ing the time, but did not see that the
circumstances called for his attention.
Section 1896 of MacDonelrs Code provides
a penalty that covers cases of cruelty to
animals.

WILL BE ARGUED THIS MORNING.
Case of DIR. Read Against City and
Suburban Closes To-day.

OIOSts
The case of DR.. James B. Read against
the City and Suburban Railway Company
was on trial in the City Court yesterday,
and the introduction of evidence on behalf
of both the plaintiff and defendant con-
tinued throughout the morning and after
noon sessions of the court.
The evidence introduced was exceedingly
contradictory, the witnesses for the same
side disputing the statements of each
other. For the plaintiff 1t was testified
by several witnesses that neither the mo
torman nor conductor of the car that had
been stopped by the dropping wire made
any effort to warn DR.. Read or his driver
of the impending danger, while for the
defendant ii was testified with equal GER
tainty. that ample and complete and
timely warning had been given, to which
Lloyd, the driver, had paid absolutely no
attention.
The plaintiff contends that unless such
warning was given no negligence can be
imputed either to him or his driver, and
that full blame for the resulting accident
must fall upon the railway. The railway
company, however, cannot be induced to
take this view of the situation, and con-
tends that even without warning given to
LIZ hedd OF the uTlNeF the dcclueHl coulu
not have happened, if the occupants o.
the trap had taken ordinary and reason
able precautions for their own safety.
The interrogatcres of experts in the
construct on of electrical roads and over
head trolley systems were read TO The
jury in behalf of the company. This ev-
idence was TO the effect that the system
used by the City and Suburban Railway
Company was of modern construction and
as safe as 1t could be made, only the best

iivered this morning. 1t is probable that
both Mr. OConnor and Mr.. Hartridge

His Valuable Time Wasted.

A Chicago lady who is the wife of
wealthy and influential citizen had a
great deal of trouble recently with her
dOmestics. She had discharged her
cook and second girl and for a few
DAYS was obliged to do her own cook
ing.
1t was on one of these mornings that
a peremptory knock sounded on the
kitchen door. She wiped her hands
on the apron and found at the door
low browed, insolent looking man, with
4 small satchel swung over his Shout

failed her. But in a moment she hit
upon a plan that would bring this
piece OF jnsolence to abject humility.
