Dogs in leash, without muzzle. are not

opinion Of Corporation Counsel z. H.
Thomas. given yesterday at the request
Of the Commissioners, following their
order Of Tuesday that all dogs be muz-
zled for the next six months. which ac-
tion was taken at the request Of President
Roosevelt 10 the Commissioners. Mr.
Thomas said:
Under the authorities and rulings
which have consulted, I am OF the
opinion that a dog held in leash with
out muzzle will not be running at large
or going at large. and could not there
fore. be impOunded. sold. or destroyed
I am also OF the opinion that a dog
without a muzzle, IN view Of the recent
proclamation OF the Commissioners. must
be retrained either by leash or by some
similar device o. secured TO the premises
OF its owner or the person in charge
thereof. and that all unmuzzled dogs
should not be allowed within the parking
spaces adjacent TO private buildings,
whether such spaces be fenced or un-
fenced"
Result OF Conference.
AS result Of a conference yesterday
between Commissioner Macfarland and
Health officer Woodward regarding the
carrying out of the new regulation. a
fourth pound wagon will be ordered and
put IN active operation. An extra build
ing Of a temporary nature will be erected
at once in order 70 accommodate the large
number OF dogs which will undoubtedly
be impounded under the new order.
DR.. E c. Schroeder. in charge OF the

ture, agrees that dogs should be muzzled
TO prevent the spread Of rabies.
For the local Humane Society. c. A.
Snow, the president, said yesterday that
the new order is sensible and in the IN
terest Of humanity in the broader sense.
Only one voice has been raised in serious
opposition thus far. This comes from DR..
Cecil French, a canine specialist and vet
erinarian. OF this city, who said when he
heard Of the order:
1T IS utter rot 10 require the muzzllng
