MAY PARTY IN PANIC AS
POLICEMAN FIGHTS DOG
Bull Terrier Shot to Death Amid
Thomas Jefferson Park
MerrymakerS.
"C0P" IS BADLY BITTEN
Hand and Leg Chewed in Des-
perate Fight with Animal
Chokes 1t Insensible, Then
Blows It's Head Off.

More than 1900 children in Thomas
Jefferson Park, between First avenue
and the Harlem River, from 111th TO
114th streets, were thrown into
panic yesterday afternoon. when a
large bull terrier frothing at the
mouth, ran, swapping and snarling,
among them.
The children, who had been absorbed
In MAY party festivities. huddled in
frightened groups. while Patrolman
Casters fought the animal. Twice the
dog leaped at Casters's throat and
twice buried its teeth in his left leg.
The patrolman. after vainly trying
to kill the animal with his club, drew
his gun, and. holding the dog by the
throat with one hand, sent a bullet
into its brain. Casters was badly BIT
ten and his wounds were dressed by a
surgeon.
The dog was first observed when he
dashed among a crowd of children
dancing around a May pole. lie scat
'ered them right and left Some Of the
little ones thought the terrier wanted
only to play with them and put out
their hands to stroke him. Others
raised cries of Mad dog"
wild fear seized the children. and
they ran in all directions. screaming
for help. At the height OF the excite
ment Patrolman Casters dashed into
the park. The dog was rushing for a
group of children when Casters jumped
between them and drew his club.
The terrier leaped at Casters and bit
his left leg Casters struck the animal
on the head. but the terrier retained his
hold. and as the patrolman stepped
backward he tripped and fell. The dog
then leaped at Casters's throat, snari-
ing and clawing at him. The policeman
finally drew his revolver and fired.
The wound only seemed further 10
infuriate the terrier, which bit Casters
in the chest, ripping his uniform open.
The patrolman fought hard, clubbing
the dog and beating it off, Two more
shots from Casters's revolver went
wild, and before he could regain his
feet the terrier made another lunge at
his throat
Casters met the animals onslaught
and gripped il about the throat, but he
had a hard time keeping the dog from
sinking its teeth in his neck. He at
last succeeded in shutting off the ter
rier's wind long enough to press the
muzzle of his revolver against the anil
mails ear and sending bullet into It's
brain.
The dog was instantly killed and
stretched out at Casters's feet. The
patrolman was so exhausted by his
battle. however. that it was several
minutes before he could get to his feet.
In the mean time somebody had called

wounds and advised the patrolman TO

The crowd saw him falling. They
saw that the parachute did not open.
Before he reached earth they had

Tentative Details Submitted.

In regard 10 the progress thus tar
made in the negotiations and the plan
for negotiating the proposed treaties
Mr.. Bryan says:
ITO those expressing a willingness to
confer in regard TO details a tentative
statement has been submitted embody-
ing details suggested by the President
this statement being submitted for
consideration. however, with no inten-
tion Of insisting upon any particular
detail. The exact phraseology Of the
agreements may not be the same In all
cases. IL the principle is indorsed the
government is willing TO confer with
open mind as TO minor points"
Secretary Bryan declines 10 make
public the statement transmitted by
the President because Of the fact that
there is, as he said, mo intention OF in
sistence upon any particular detail"
Secretary Bryan has already sub
mitted his plan 10 the Senate Commit
tee on Foreign Relations, which has
approved it without serious objection.
AS first presented by Mr.. Bryan, the
plan provided for the suspension OF all
military activity on the part of the ma
tions at odds while the commission was
preparing its report. This feature OF
the proposed peace treaties did not ap-
peal TO some Senator's. and it appears
from Mr.. Bryan's statement to-day
that it has been abandoned, as the
Secretary's memorandum says the con-
tracing parties agree only mot to de-
clare war or begin hostilities"
The principle. which is the same as
that underlying the peace treaties
negotiated under the Taft administra-
ton, that any agreement which win
delay hostilities TO permit popular pas
sion to subside, meets with general ap-
proval in the Senate and is commended
by such Republicans as Senators Lodge
and Root.
II treaties as outlined by the Secre-
tary Of State in his statement to-day
are negotiated they will undoubtedly
be ratified by the Senate.
