HARRY HART STIRS UP
OWNERS OF CANINES
Famous Dojrcntcher Picks up 23 Un
tagged Animals ami Wrath of
Owners Bursts Forth One Man
Swears to Complaint Charging Hart
Pointed Gun at IUm.
Dog owners who have escaped the
payment of taxes in the past and who
had counted on being able to escape
this year are very much worked up
today. It has suddenly developed
that the city council is very much in
earnest in its efforts to enforce the
ordinance and clean up the town with
the result that there is more excite
ment among delinquent owners of
canines than there has ever been siirje
the ordinance went Into effect.
Harry Hart, the famous dog catch
er, is not only here but he is catch
ing dogs and arousing the ire of those
who have not paid licenses. Among
the latter is George O'Daniel, who
this afternoon went before District
Attorney Phelps, and swore to a com
plaint charging Hart with having
pointed a gun at him and also charg
ing him with carrying concealed wea
pons. Hart is out after dogs and could
not be found after the complaint was
filed but O'Diir.;.-! claims the gun was
pointed at him without any provoca
tion. Hart has been sworn in as a
special police officer and as such has
a right to carry concealed weapons.
He will also probably claim that he
only drew the gun in self defense,
after having seized O'Danlels dog up
on which no license has been paid,
though it has been delinquent since
the first of thia month.
Though Hart has been in the city
for the past few days he did not start
operations until last evening. A few
hours work on his part 'placed 23 un
tagged canines in the pound and the
telephone in the office of the police
court has beea kept busy since early
morning by anxious owners. An ad
ditional charge of one dollar is being
made for every dog caught and this
is adding to the flames of wrath.

E SUIT
T
REST OF WEEK WILL
PROBABLY BE CONSUMED
Kearney's Witnesses Being Severely
Cross-examined by O. R. & N. At
torney Brother of Injured Man on
Witness Stand.
The trial of the big damage suit of
Clarence Kearney against the O. R.
& NT. is proceeding slowly and it Is
probable that the greater part of the
week will be consumed. The plain
tiff is still introducing witnesses and
it Is certain that the defense will not
have Its inning before tomorrow. The
case is being stubbornly contested on
each side.
Ira Hughes, who was the first wit
ness called for Kearney, was kept on
the stand nearly all of yesterday af
ternoon by Arthur Spencer of counsel
for the defense. He was put through
an extended and severe cross-examination
but could not be shaken very
much on the material points of his
story, which were to the effect that
the vestibule door had been left open
between Echo and Pendleton.
Hughes was corroborated in his ac
count of the events of the night of the
accident by H. C. Gard, who was also
a member of the party.
J. D. Mattheson. who was train
master for the O. R. & N., was plac
ed on the stand to show that the rules
of the company which were In effect
at that time provided that the mem
bers of the train should keep the ves
tibule doors closed.
Mrs. C. M. Kearney, wife of the
plaintiff, was on the stand this morn
ing testifying to the illness of her
husband following the fall and the
condition he has been In since that
time.
Charles Johnson, the Pilot Rock
sheepman, who came up from Port
land on the train from which Kearney
fell was also one of the witnesses of
the day. He corroborated to a certain
extent the testimony of Hughes and
Gard.
John Kearney, night police officer
and brother of the plaintiff Is now on
the stand. He Is telling of the find
ing of the unconscious form of his
brother, lying beside the railroad
track about 700 feet west of Main
street, on the morning that he fell
from the train and also about the
condition of his brother since that
time.

POPE HAS NOT CUT OFF
AMERICANS FROM HONORS
Rome. The Report that the pope
had eliminated the names of Ameri
can candidates from the list of can
didates for the cardlnalate has, upon
Investigation, been found to be er
roneously. It has been authoritatively
denied and the idea such a step had
been taken because Theodore Roose
velt did not visit the pope was char
acterized as ridiculous.
It is pointed out by one of the
Vatican officials that no list of can
didates for the American cardinal ever
existed. For more than two years,
said the official, the pope had not
held a consistory although there are
many vacancies In the sacred college;
but notwithstanding this, nothing has
been arranged with reference to the
next consistory, which, it is almost
certain, will not be held until next
winter, if then.
All references to American candi
dates, therefore, he said, was prema
ture. The general opinion here Is
that the pope does not Intend to ap
point another American cardinal while
Cardinal Gibbons Uvea.
Paris, April 14. A dispatch receiv
ed here from Rome says it Is stated
In ecclesiastical circles the nomina
tion of Cardinals which was expected
to take place In May or June has been
postponed until the end of the year.
FORTUNES IN SMALL FURS.
MI ST PAY DUTY ON STRAW
COVERINGS TO BOTTLES
Washington Chlantl and other fa
mous Italian and French wines and
cordials, made or bottled In this
country, will probabty cost more as
a result of a decision Just made pub
lic by the treasury department.
Bottles containing these and similar
other kinds of goods are' usually cov
ered with a straw plaiting, which was
formerly considered sure proof of for
fign origin. But It seems of late that
there has been quite a trade In the
Importation of empty bottles with
straw coverings. Heretofore the treas
ury department has allowed these to
come in without additional duty, on
the ground that they were used in
good faith to protect the bottles from
breakage.
Recently, however, the depnrtment
Investigated the matter and reached
the conclusion that the straw cover
ings or Jackets were not usual cov
erings for empty bottles Imported In
to this country.
It appears that other varieties of
empty bottles Imported at Boston and
Philadelphia are Invariably packed in
loose straw; at Baltimore the major
ity came In bales of straw covered
with burlap, and at New York only
about 20 per cent are Imported In
straw coven.
Instructions have therefore been
sent out by the department directing
coliectors of customs to hereafter
treat straw coverings on empty bot
tles as if they were separately Import
ed. This means that they will come
In as "manufactures of straw" and pay
a duty of 50 per cent ad valorem.
Delaware Trapper Richer by Thou
sands of Dollars This Year.
Mllford, Del. The trappers' season.
which closed last w-eek, was marked
by the highest prices paid for furs In
years. The season has not seen as
many muskrats caught as In previous
years, on account of the Ice keeping
the marshes closed nearly all winter,
but the high prices have made up
for the small number caught, anil
Walter Bennett, one buyer, has so
far this season paid out to trappers
nearly $5000, having handled 5000
muskrat hides. 200 raccoon hides. 10O
mink hides, 200 opossum, 12 otters
and 3000 rabbits Another buyer
Thad Windsor, has paid out about
$3000. One trapper Is reputed to
have made $1,000 during the aeason,
which lusts from November to March.
The pelts are caught aiong the Del
aware marshes and eastern part of
Sussex county, some trappers mak
ing as high as $.10 ;n one day. Prob
ably the most successful of any of
the trappers, considering the time she
gives to the work. Is Mrs. James
Jones of Cove Neck, who expects to
make about $500 this year.
