CITY EMPLOYEES RESCUE
PET FROM DOG-CATCHER.
Judge Hahn Comments on
Methods of Animal Chasers.

The dog-catcher tried to capture a
fox terrier belonging to william
Roebling, of the city license bureau,
yesterday and succeeded in caging the
animal when Roebling appeared on the
scene. After heated argument with
the driver, Walter Bronford, who re-
fused to release the dog, Roebling
opened the wagon door and rescued his
pet
representatives of the Humane So
ciety appeared at the First Criminal
Court today and wanted TO make a
complaint against Roebling. They
claimed that when Roebiing opened the
wagon he allowed another dog to
escape. and that the owner of this ami
may was raising a rumpus because the
Humane Society was unable to pro-
duce it. They wanted to hold Roebling
responsible, but were informed by the
court that no action would be taken.
Judge Hahn then made comment
upon the method of the dog-eatchers,
saying that he had received several
complaints where dogs having good
homes We're taken away. The repre-
sentative of the Humane Society in
formed the court that by the laws of
New Jersey any citizen had the right
to shoot any dog running at large
upon the streets. The court investi-
gated and found the statement correct.
THAT may be the law" Judge Hahn
said but anyone who obeys that law
by shooting dogs on these streets will
be fined So for discharging a firearm
within the city limits and $25 for
carrying a dangerous weapon"
