Was lesponslble for tho daiViago caused
by the Hooding, and not the Dolnvvare

, Mr. Collins held Hint the city was
liable since It lowered the Brooklyn
bridge and nnnovved the abutments.
This clinked' the channel, causing the
stream to leap over the embankment
and flood the abutting piopertles. He
suggested that the city clean out or
deepen the channel of the creek, In or

suggested that ho and Mr. Toolan
would not ask for damages, only that
the city repair their cellar walls and
restore the propel ty to Its condition bo

The complaint and suggestions wore
referred to the street committee, the

DOG POISONER ABROAD.
His Nefarious Work Destroys Val
uable Canine of Dr. W. A. Spen
cer.
The nefarious work of Indiscriminate
ly dlstilbutlng poison about for tho
purpose of killing dogs Is being secretly
carried on by some one,
The criminal mission of the guilty
one, as usual, has affected dogs other
than the ones perhaps which ho endeav
ored to destroy. It might have been
the Intention of tho poisoner to lessen
the number of cuis that are unmistak
ably a nuisance, particularly by their
harrowing elplng during the lonely
hours of the night; but such an Inten
tion was not realized In one case at
least. Dr. W. A. Spencer's high bicd
dog came acioss some of the poisoned
stuff, ate It and died some time after
In great agony. The cnnlnc was valued
at $100, and cannot be duplicated here
abouts. The poisoner, whoever he may bo, Is
amenable to prosecution; a fact which
is being borne In mind by tho police
who are on the alertlfor the dog hater
and destrojer.

Due to Attack of Appendicitis.
Martin Duffy, of Fallbrook stieet, a

loom where he was opeiated on for the
removal of his appendix. Tuesday he
was stricken and the disease spread so
rapidly that when It was decided to re
move him to the hospital he was In a
despeiate condition. It was an heroic
move to aveit a fatal end.
Last night Duffy showed no Increase
of unfavorable symptoms. However,
he Is not out of danger, as the Intestines
aie badly involved. The result of the
attack cannot be foietold for a few
dajs, though theie Is reason for some
hope for Ills recovery.
