Arrested Doctor Gets Writ Of
Habeas Corpus.

Dr Henry T. Westlske was i'm the Su-
prene Court yesterday on a writ Of hapeas
corpus after being arrested for refusing 70
get license for his dog. a valuable York
shire terrier. which he received as a pres
ent from Homer Davenport, the cartoon
jst. Dr. Westake ignored the cummons
issued on the complaint Of an Inspector OF
the Society for the Prevention Of Cruelty
to Animals. and a warrant was then issued
whereupon the physician obtained the writ
Of habeas corpus
Or Westlake, through his counsel. tried
10 prove to Justice lehman that the law
under which the Society for tho Prevention
Of Cruelty tJ Animals imposes tax OF T.
OH each dog was unconstitutional Dc
cause II gave tho power o. taxation to a
private corporation. II was recalled thdt
I'm a similar case in anothcf part OF inc
state tho law was held ineffective. ana
that later It was 50 amended that the soci-
etv could 90 on collecting the tax.
Senator Wainwright. who appeared as
counsel for the society. said that II the law
was declared Unconstitutional It would Gre
ate a serious public situation. He SAID the
society had the work Of Kidding the streets
Of stray cats and dogs and protecting
dumb animals from cruclties. There Is no
city department that does that work ana
the money derived from the dog tax was
used I'm furtherance of the work.
Senator Wainwright said there could De
no doubt that the society had tnr author
ity 10 collect the tax. He also quoted some
statistics which showed that since the So
ciety has been I'm business IL had picked
M five hundred thousand dogs and two
million cats. The record Tor Is" was
eighty thousand dogs and two hundred ana
fifty thousand cats.
Justice Lehman paroled DR. Westlake III
