After much preliminary akirmishing the Retail Dry Goods Association got into open battle with Commisstoner Woodbury and the Street Cleaning De- partment to-day before Supreme Court Justice Truax in the suit for a peremp- tory mandamus to compel the master of the city’s dirt to take away the refuse of the dry goods district the same as he does that of other parts of the clty. The Adams Dry-Goods Company heads the long Hst of firms comprising tho Retail Dry-Goods Association, and the Utle of the is in the name of that firm, The association, however, in- cludes all the great department stores in the Broadway and Sixth avenue shop- ping district from Fourteenth to Thirty- fifth street Simpson-Crawford Co., Siegel-Cooper Co., James McCreery & Co, Stern Bros., Erich Bros, B. Alt- man & Co, and Lord & Taylor. Contention of the Merchants, Daniel P. Hays, counsel for the aroused dry-goods merchants, presented he case for the association, while sev- eral members Corporation Counsel Rives's etaff appeared jn opposition. Mr. Hays prefaced his argument with the statement that the action was not intended and did not reflect upon Com- missioner Woodbury, but was brought to test the right of the firms interested and to demonstrate reasonableness of Commissioner Woodbury's plea to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment for an Acrease of $1,000,000 In the approy | Priation set apart for street-cleaning. | Although the city had incregsed largely |!" population and added rites of street |@rea for the cleaners and thousands of |homes to make garbage since Col.

SKULL BROKEN, BUT LOCKED UP. Once More Hasty Examination by Ambulance Surgeon Allows a Man to Die of Neglect in a Police Cell. GROSS CARELESSNESS HERE. Coroners’ Physician Philip O'Hanion tu day made an autopsy on the body of James Taggart, of No. M4 rand street, Brooklyn, who died in a cell at the Eldridge street police station after ‘being declared to be simply “drunk’’ by 4n ambulance surgeon summoned from the Gouvenour Slip Hospital. Dr. O'Hanlon found that Taggert, in- stead of dying of alcoholism, as was supposed, had died from violence. The left side of the skull was terribly grushed in. and death wan due to ex, tensive lon and hemorrhage the brain. a Dr. O'Hanlon was shocked when told that an ambulance surgeon had been called to attend the unconscious man and had failed to find that the whole left side of the ufferer's head was crushed in, which ought to have been @pparent to a layman, he sald. Discussing Taggert’s case, Dr, O'Han- lon, after the autopsy, sald: “I can't say too much against the superficial ex- aminations that have been made by those young ambulance surgeons, and ‘this Taggert case is merely one of many instances of the same kind of neglect. Here was a man found unconscious In the street, and an ambulance is called, and the doctor, seeing that the man had alcoholism, and lets It goat that Shortly after being Incarcerated In a cell the man dies, and to-day by an Autopsy I find that the poor fellow had 4 badly fractured skull, and the indioa- tions Were that this Injury was received quite a while before death. ‘oroner’ Jackson upon my recommen- dation will make a thorough inv - thon to find ont ‘wheiher the injuries Were received before or after Taggert was placed in the cell “I want to most thoroughly condemn the mode of treatment of alcoholic pa- Uents, not only by ambulance surgeons but by the doctors who subsequently recelve them.
