POLICEMAN RISKS LIFE
TO STOP RUNAWAY HORSE
Is Severely Hurt When Animal
Falls on Him.

Policeman Dunn, of the Third Pre-
cinct, performed an act of bravery late
Saturday afternoon. when, at the risk
of his life, he stopped a runaway horse
attached to a heavy sleigh. dashing at
sull speed down Hunterdon street,
menacing the lives of pedestrians and
the safety Of vehicles. Dunn was pain
fully hurt, but brought the horse to a
stop.
The policeman vas returning from
st. James's Hospital on the police am
bulance which had just conveyed a
patient there, when, at the junction OF
Bank and Hunterdon streets he saw a
runaway dashing toward him. Dunn
jumped from the ambulance and made
a dive for the runaway as it passed. He
caught the horses bride and held on,
being dragged a block, but finally
brought the horse to a standstill. The
exhausted animal then slipped, and fell
on the policeman. Besides many bruises
and scratches, Policeman Dunn suf-
fered an injury to his right hip and
sprained his left wrist. He said he did
not consider his injuries sufficient to
cause him TO be excused from duty.
The horse and sleigh are the property
OF Milton Kaison. of 1871 Court street,
When the driver alighted from the
sleigh the animal started off at full
speed. AT the time Policeman Dunn
stopped 1t, the horse and sleigh were
headed for a cluster of wagons and a
serious smashup was averted.

PHYSICIANS IN SUIT SAY
M HAS DELUSIONS.
Declare Mrs. Hinkel Was Not In,
iured in Accident.

Drs. George H. Gale, Walter S. Wash
inglon and ]. Henry Clark gave testi-
mony TO-DAY in h second trial of the
suit of Mrs. Francesca Hinkel against
the Public Service Railway Company.
The case will so to the jury this after
noon. Mrs. Hinkel has been in the pub
lie eye of late as an accuser of the
Overlook asylum officials in the skele-
ton mystery, claiming she saw a patient
said to be Katherine Lindner struck
with a chair by attendants in February,
1904.
The accident for which she claims
damages happened in October, 1906.
Drs. Gale. Washington and Clark to-
day testified that in their opinion Mrs.
Hinkel's mind was unbalanced and that
she was subject to decisions. The ply
sicians declared the street car accident
of 1906 had nothing to do with her pres
ent mental condition, which they char
acterized as unreliable.
1t is due, they claim, to an illness of
long standing. n also to worry over
the death of her husband and son and
the confinement of her daughter as an
insane patient at the Overlook and
Morris Plains asylums.

WHIP CAUSES
LIVELY STREET
ROW IN ORANGE
Quarrel Among Snow-Cleaners
Results in Mix-Up of Men,
Wagons and TrOlleys.

In addition to his storm troubles,
Street Commissioner Augustus Marks,
of Orange, was a storm centre himself
when he n his snow gang became in
yolyed in hostilities while cleaning out
the narrow section of o street, be-
tween Main street and the. Lacka-
wanna railroad tracks yesterday.
According to the reports to the Or
ange police headquarters the snow
gangs were busy in the narrow thor
oughfare, which has, in addition to its
usual traffic, a single car track of the
Orange and Passalc Valley Railway,
when William Rooney, driver Of of
the wagons, dropped his whip. He did
not notice it at the time, but Commits
sioner Marks did. and when another
driver came along later he gave him
the %persuader. Rooney was returning
from his trip with an empty wagon
ard gracefully Unanswered into line.
when he spotted his whip gaily flour
ished by its new owner. Rooney claimed
the whip. and the other. a foreigner, re-
ferred him to the "bigga de boss" The
result of that argument, Rooney claims,
was q piiL-Dui6 SdluN1 ~ ho.
Spectators, who had taken in the stu
alton. with the wagons lined up and in
terlocked sent for the police at this
juncture. and Policeman Timothy
Cronen was hurried to the scene. While
Rooney was arguing and being punched
the snow shovelers had filled his wagon,
and the appearance of the bluecoat in
uniform was the signal for wig-wag-
s.- - rlNx,-I IA.. H. ls,,A fAr nxtArx,
one to start work and stop quarreling.
Trolley cars meanwhile had forced their
way into the street and with the
vehicles and men entangled in the mar
row lane the job was one for a Broad
way traffic squad expert.
Cronen listened to the explanations
of everyone, and, after advising Roo
ney to taxi his troubles to tire Orange
Police Court for Judge Bray's adjudi-
cation. ordered the driver to make a
roundabout trip to relieve the block
ade.
"All right shouted Roney, urging
his horses, I'll go ahead
Thine for you to move when you're
made to-" was the angry comment of
a trolley motorman, and the argument
was Oh again
cut out that talk said the bluecoat
to the trolley man, "or I'll knock your
block Off" The chorus gradually
stopped, and after some humping of
wagons and trollevs, hot words and
near-fghts, the snow gan got back to

Cronen returned to the station.
The police report fails to mention who
got the whip. Rooney did not make
n complaint today. and the snow bril-
gade was augmented by another group
OF sturdy foreigners, put on the depart
ment payroll, by h grace of Alderman
Birkholz, the Republican insurgent in
Council.
