Decisions in the
Supreme Court
No Error Found in Green
berg Case Against
the City

No error is found by the su-
preme court of errors in the case
of Silas Greenberg, administrator,
against the City OF Waterbury In n
decision handed down yesterday.
Under the high courts finding, the
$4,000 judgment against the city,
stands.
Greenberg sued as administrator
Of the estate of George Smith, "a
year old Negro who was alleged to
have died from injuries he suffered
In fall on defective sidewalk
on North Elm street, October 4,
1881. The case was tried to Judge
Alfred C. Baldwin in superior court
who made the award.
The city appealed OH the
grounds that the plaintiff did not
give proper notice of the fall, that
the amount was excessive and
against the law and evidence. The
high court admits the amount Is
liberal but that II could not be dis
turbed upon the records submitted
In court.
Corporation Counsel Charles S.
O'Conror and Assistant Corpora
ton Counsel Timothy s. Sullivan
represented the city in the appeal.
Attorney George era wford of New
Haven represented the plaintiff.

MOTION UP FOR HEARING
MAD DOG QUESTION
GETTING SERIOUS
Another Scare Occurred in
Bunker Hill District
Yesterday
THE WARDEN ACTIVE

The mad dog question is getting
serious in Waterbury. Another
case Of a terrier that ran amuck
yesterday afternoon on Bunker
Hill, and bit other dogs before it
was captured by Michael j. Cam
field and william Godin, from the
office of DIR Charles H. Beere and
turned over to Coleman O'Lough-
lin, the dog warden, who took its
head to Hartford where an ex-
animation showed that It was at
fected with rabies. Several dogs
bitten by the rabid animal were
collected by the warden and will
be kept under observation.
Pending a further investigation
which will mean stricter enforce
ment Of the quarantine, the warden
requests owners of dogs In that
section to keep their dogs tied up.
1t is generally believed that the
warning OF the warden should be
taken by dog owners all over the
city. Almost every street has sew
eral dogs, some of them surly
looking brutes running at large,
They are n source of much annoy
ance to parents, who are in con-
slant fear of hearing that their
children have been attacked: Some
of these dogs may be harmless II
let alone but just the same when
you attempt to drive them off, fire.
quently they turn and show fight.
The owners of these animals are
liable for such damages as the dogs
may do, but that Is not what wor-
ries people most. What folks fear
is the danger of being bitten by an
animal that has rabies. But rabies
OR no rabies, q vicious dog should
not be at large. In the first place
1t Is contrary to law, and even
though there Is no law to that
effect common ordinary regard for
the rights of others should prompt

NGngRtuck--In one of the big
gest landslides In the history OF
borough elections, Warden Harris
Whittemore. Jr., wet delegate OF
the 14th district, carried the three
wards of the borough by vote of
2,392 to 1855, cast for Tyler David
son, his dry opponent.
The voting In the borough was
very light, there being only 500
votes cast up to yesterday noon
hour but the late rally In the lat
ter part of tho afternoon brought
the total vote up above the ex-
pectations OF many, Lack of en-
thusiasm in the election and the
failure of dry leaders to organize
for the election Is bellved respon-
sible for the light vote.
Mrs Edna c. Fenniman, staunch
supporter OF the dry forces, yester-
day afternoon conceded the cleo
ton to Warden Whittemore by
1900 votes.
Tho voting In the first ward was
the heaviest In the borough with
Whittemore receiving, 9S9 to
Davidson's 6S. The ward nor
NAL democratic ward which
usually casts over 2,000 votes in
borough elections, gave tho wet
delegate his largest majority. Tho
third ward, the republican strong
hold In borough elections, gave
MIR. Davidson his largest vote In
the borough polling IS votes to
Mr. Whittemore's S44,
Tho second ward the smallest of
the three wards gave the wet

nox, September 20. when day and

Big Income Drop

WASHINGTON. april 80. - The
gross income of the farming popula-
tion declined $6.775 100000, or 81 per
cent, from 1929 through 1882, accord
ing to annual estimates of the De
partnaent of Agriculture, made public
today. The real plight Of the farm
ers of the richest country in the
world" is even more desperate if we
take their cash income, after deduct
ing production expenditures, since the
decline here actually reaches u per
cent. And this, though total produc-
ton expenses, including wages to
hired labor fell in the same period
by more than two and a half billion
collars
The value Of all farm property has
decreased since 1929 by S19,OO0OO0, 900.
1t is against this background Of eco
nomic catastrophe in the farming
states that we see the growth of a
militant movement Of farmers against
the conditions of starvation and in
cresssing misery to which the bank
rupt capitalist system dooms them.
The huge mass meetings, forcible
stopping of farm sales by the en-
battled farmers the path of direct
action which the farmers have tried
and tested and found to be the only
sure way of getting what they want,
is now being met by q campaign of
martial law.
Four hundred and fifty national
guardsmen have been sent into Plym-
outh and Crawford counties, in Iowa,
Troops armed with machine guns and
tear gas have been sent in to protect
the agents of the bank sharks in their
business Of cheating the poverty
stricken farmers out Of their farms
and goods. Nine farmer leaders have
been arrested, and sc more are being
hunted, as militia patrols scour the
highways of the state.
