the bottles were found I'm the room Of
Patrol Driver John Austin. who sleeps
near tho city hall in the patrol wagon
house. He does not know who put
them there, or whether they were for
q joke or were meant to blow up the
we'll known officer.
Driver Austin is the man who exc
cuted the dogs several days ago, and
some Of the officers claim that some
one "had it in for him" on that &C.
count and tried to make way with
him.
The general opinion is, however,
that some one tried to play q joke on
the officer.
