Court Asked to Settle
Disputed Claims as to
Ownership of S Properties

Question of ownership of the
properties at 1704-06 North Third
street, and 17O3-05-07 Susquehanna
street, at the time of the fire at the
Harrisburg Auto Company garage
at that place has been raised in a
suit filed to-day by NJ. Brenner &
Sons against the auto firm.
In the bill of complaint it is stated
an agreement was made by the
Brenners to purchase the property
from the auto company for $19,50O
and that the purchase price has been
paid. 1t is alleged the auto company
has probably collected damages from
fire insurance companies as a result
of the property loss, the Brenners al
leging that they are the ones to sus-
tain it and not the auto company.
The court is asked to restrain the
auto firm from settling the insurance
claims; to tell the names of COM
panies with which insurance was
carried; to give the amount of in
surance; proofs of loss submitted to
the companies if any, and to remit
any money which may have been
paid by the insurance companies,
which the Brenners state they do not
know. The court set Saturday for
presentation of a motion to continue
the hearing until an answer is filed.

Will Cost $4.OO to Keep
a Dog in City Next Year

County and city officials will have
to decide in the next few weeks
what action will be taken in con-
nection with the enforcement of the
new dog tax law. The act of 1917
gives the County Commissioners the
right to assess all dogs in the city
and county. Heretofore the county
only collected a tax on dogs owned
in the county districts while the city
collected a tax on dogs owned by
residents in the municipality.
Recently the Commissioners fixed
the minimum rate allowed by law
Cor the 1918 dog tax. This is 81
for males and 50 for females. Should
the city also assess owners of dogs
in Harrisburg they would have to
pay $3.50 additional city tax for
males and So for females. 1t is prob
able that County Solicitor Philip S.
Mover will communicate with city
authorities to learn what position
will be taken by the officials. The
dog tax IN Harrisburg adds a gross
return os about $1,000 to the city
tt easury, some of which must be
use6 to pay the salary of a dog
catcher and to pay for disposing of
dogs which are caught and not re-
claimed.
At the county treasurer's office to-
day it was stated they probably will
not begin issuing licenses for a week
Or two
