G S, Animals Tied Three owners of dogs were fined by Judge James T. Meskill in police court ‘this morning for permitting their antmals to run loose in direct violation of ;the mandate of the state commissioner of domestic animals and | unless the public at once realizes that this rule must be obeyed and govern themselves accordingly more owners will be prosecuted, stated Deputy Commissioner George T. Crowley who appeared in court as a representative of the state. This ruling was made by State Commissioner - Whittlessey last Sep- tember as the only effective way to stamp out rabies and it is proving its worth. throughout the state. “During the past few weeks however, many dog owners in this city have been lax in obeying the rale, which préyides that no dogs shall run at large and that when they are taken out on the streets they must, be held on a leash. | Peputy Commissioner Crowley’s latest clean-up brought W. P. O'Brien, Nic- ‘oli Bellini and James Pignatilli into court. O’Brien and Pignatilli were fined $2 without costs and Bellini was assessed the costs of court. Other Monday Cases.
