Th lad's wound was cauterized by a local The police of the Greenpoint station have notified the Board of 'Health to examine the animal. Yesterday afternoon a spaniel was stoned to death at Rodney street and Metropolitan avenue, after it hai tacked four men.

The animal is thought to be the one that has for some time been running about the Eastern District, biting people at will. The one most serlously injured yesterday was Thomas Murphy of 20 Ten Eyck street. He is in the Eastern District Hospital. The animal bit Murphy in the face several times and one of the wounds may mean the loss of the sight of the right eye. The other men bitten were Stephen Butler of 65 Clymer street; Henry Mahon of 18 Ainslie street, and Edward Haver, who lives at Graham avenue and Powers street.

Dr. Levine cauterized the wounds. WHITNEY'S COLT THIRD. London, June 5-Harry Payne Whitney's colt Borrow ran third in the race for the Whitsuntide Plate at Hurst Park to-day. PLANNING FOR WEDDING, IS KILLED BY TRAIN Henry Dankenbrink Falls Under Wheels Alighting at Borough Park.

FIANCEE IS PROSTRATED. Young Man Was About to Be Advanced by His Employers as Wedding Gift. Henry Dankenbrink, 27 years old, of Twenty-frst street, was instantly killed under the wheels of a West End line train at Forty-ninth street and New Utrecht avenue shortly before 6 o'clock this morning. He was to have been married to Miss Pauline Grauer of 72 Green street, Greenpoint, next Wednesday. The girl is with his mother, with whom he lived at the address given to-day, and both are with grief.

The apartment in which they were to live is on the floor just above that one in which the mother occupies and in which the dead body now lies. It is A four story apartment house and Mrs. Dankenbrink owns the building. Mother, 60n and fiancee have been furnishing the rooms for a week past, with the keenest pleasure, looking forward to the day when the young people should move in and begin housekeeping. Yesterday the sweethearts made a visit to the minister together and arranged for the wedding.

Dankenbrink was a valued employe of a large grocery firm, proprietors of a chain of stores about the city. He worked in a store at the corner of Forty-ninth street and New Utrecht avenue. The young man did not know it himself, but his mother said to-day that his employers, in recognition of his ability and faithful service, were going to make him manager of one of their stores as a wedding gift. The promotion was to come as a complete surprise to him and his bride from the firm on the completion of the marriage ceremony. Young Dankenbrink was on his way to open the store at Forty-ninth street and New Utrecht avenue, when he was killed.

He usually opened it at 6 o'clock. The police version of the accident is that he was a passenger on the train which ran over him. The cars run at the street grade there. The police say that he stepped from the train before the cars stopped, lost his footing and rolled under the rear car. There were a great many people on the train and on the platform who saw the accident, and a moment of great excitement followed, the women screaming and covering their faces as Dankenbrink died.

Ambulance Surgeon Cook of the Norwegian Hospital took the remains to the Parkville police station. Later the firm for which he worked took charge of them, and they were removed to his home. Mrs. Henry Dankenbrink, hie mother, is a nurse. Henry was born in Germany and came to this country six years ago.

He was persuaded to come to America by a chum named Henry Traler, who had preceded him here. Traler himself was killed in almost exactly the same manner under a train at Bath Beach avenue and Bay Nineteenth street, two years ago.

She seemed to have an attack of religious mania yesterday and rambled all day about Biblical topics. She was sleepless in the early part of the evening and it was late at night before her son William saw that she was safely in bed. Then he fell asleep, but his slumbers were troubled, and at about 5 o'clock this morning he awoke with a consciousness that his mother was walking around.

He hurriedly got out of bed, just in time to see her plunge from one of the rear windows into the back yard. In her fall Mrs. Romer encountered many clotheslines, which broke with her weight. The son hurried down to the yard and found her unconscious and apparently paralyzed, A summons was sent to the Brooklyn Hospital for an ambulance. Surgeon McInnes came with it and saw that the woman was seriously hurt, It was plain that her back was broken and there was little hope for her recovery, but she lingered, unconscious, for over two hours, when she died.

In the cabin of the boat was found several empty whisky bottles. "We were drinking freely," Mrs.

ran told the district attorney, "when suddenly Deegan my husband started to fight. Tables and chairs were turned over and the two men fell to the floor.

FLOWERS AND A NEW GAVEL. Justice Cohalan Tells of His Ideals and What He Will Try to Do in Supreme Court. Surrounded by floral tributes from the friends of his boyhood home at Middletown, N.

from the Tammany organization of the Twenty-eighth Assembly District, the Irish- American Athletic Club and many others, presented with an ebony gavel bound with silver, suitably inscribed by the athletic club, Daniel F. Cohalan, the new Supreme Court Justice, appointed the of James A. O'Gorman, to, elected United States Senator from New York, took his seat on the bench in Special Term, Part II, of the court in Manhattan this morning. The courtroom was crowded with lawyers who were interested in seeing the new justice take his place. Mrs.

Cohalen and five children and the justice's mother saw the son, father and husband inaugurated into office. Philip F. Donoghue, treasurer of Tammany Hall, and Senator Frawley were the most prominent sentatives of Tammany Hall. The Bar Association of Middletown, N. sent a committee, headed by Mayor Cox, who came to congratulate the new justice.

In his address Mayor cox said: "Coming here as we do to represent the Bar Association of the home of your boyhood days, it gives me great pleasure to voice the sentiment of the Bar Association, the residents of Middletown, and, in fact, the residents of the whole Orange County, on your advancement to the bench of the Supreme Court. "We greatly appreciate the honor that has come to one of Orange County. Orang County has been honored by your being raised to the exalted position in the greatest city of the greatest nation of the world to-day." Mayor Cox then introduced President Decker of the Middletown Bar Association, who congratulated Middletown, Orange County, the bar of the City of New York, the litigants who come before the Supreme Court and the people of the state on Justice Cohalan's appointment. In answering the addresses Justice Cohalan said: "I know it is unnecessary for me to tell you how deeply gratifled I am at your coming here and telling me how I am regarded by the people of my boyhood home. New York is the most hospitable as well as the greatest of American cities, and there is scarcely a community throughout the entire state, or, in fact, throughout the entire United States, which has not sent of its best and most energetic sons, in order to make up this great cosmopolitan and metropolitan city.

In spite of what the occasional pessimist or Pharisee, who is to be met even in this community, may say, New York always welcomes to her bosom the man who is industrious, the man who is energetic, the man who tries to forge his ay ahead. I am pleased to find that the feeling is generally held by my old friends as well as by those of more recent years, that I have tried to fight my way fairly and energetically ahead; and I shall try, while I am on the bench, whether it be for a long or for a short time. to so conduct myself as to not only hold the esteem of those who have known me in the past, but to gain gen- erally from the public recognition as a man who tries fully to do his duty in every way. I thank you, gentlemen of the Irish- Athletic Club, for the honor you have done me, and wish that the club may go on growing in strength and reputation. I thank you all, gentlemen, for coming here this morning." Justice Cohalan left the bench for his chambers and the flowers were taken from the courtroom after a flash-light photograph had been taken of the new justice and the floral tributes.

Association, Mr.

Ridder being had called not to the proceeded witness far when Senator McCumber of North Dakota startled the committee by challenging one of his statements as an "absolute falsehood." Senator McCumber's action brought a quick protest from Senators Stone and Bailey, who declared that witnesses should not be insulted. Mr. Ridder had made the statement that the newspapers of the country and the Publishers Association had not attempted to suppress facts or to color stories sent from Washington on the subject of reciprocity when Senator McCumber interrupted with his charge of falsehood. Several Senators insisted that Mr. McCumber's remark should be stricken from the record.

'If any witness appearing before this committee," sald Senator Bailey, "were to imply that some Senator had told a falsehood, I would insist' that it be stricken from the record." Senator McCumber agreed to have his remark changed so as to make it read that what Mr. Ridder said was "unfounded." Mr. Ridder, in reply to questions from members of the committee, declared that he, as president of the Publishers Association, had sent out word to the members of the association telling them the reciprocity agreement was of vital 1m- portance. "But I would not have favored the agreement," added Mr. Ridder, "if I had not thought it would be of good to the whole country, independent of my interest in it as a newspaper publisher." In favor of reciprocity as a whole, his Mr.

Ridder declared that, while he was reason, as a newspaper man, for urging A the passage was so that he might get out of the clutches of the "paper trust," which, he said, was robbing the newspaper publishers of the country. "Have you ever made an effort," asked Senator Bailey, "to have the 'paper trust' punished by the Department of Justice?" "Yes," replied Mr. Ridder. "I had fifty-two paper makers in New York indicted and they paid $2,000 apiece. These were manufacturers of various kinds of paper, although it has not been possible as yet prove legally that a white paper trust exists.

Mr. Wallack, vice president of the International Paper Company, swore before the Mann paper committee that there was no combination of any sort, although reports were being made to him every month as to what the various paper mills of the country were doing." "Would you be satisfied," asked Senator Heyburn, "if the 'paper trust' were punished in some other way than by the' passage of the reciprocity agreement?" "I want help during my lifetime," said Mr. Ridder. "I have not yet seen any trust magnates go to jail. I favor the measure so that I may buy paper in the open market.

I do not intend, if I can help it, to let the 'paper trust' dictate to me what I must pay for paper." Mr. Ridder said he was opposed to all trusts. Taft Against Root Amendment. To Senator Stone of Missouri President Taft again made it clear to-day that he is opposed to any amendment whatsoever to Canadian reciprocity agreement. Senator Stone had heard a report that administration opposition to the Root amendment was not entirely sincere, and that Senator Root had been assured privately that the President would not be displeased if his amendment were adopted.

"I came to the White House," said the Senator, "to find out for myself whether the President was in earnest in opposing the Root amendment. And I found out. He told me that he was against the amendment proposed by Senator Root and would be against any proposed by any other Senator, Democrat or Republican. That settles it for me. I am going back to the Senate to carry the fight along those lines.

Every true friend of reciprocity will do the same thing. If we begin by tacking on 'harmless amendments' we will end by attaching others which will destroy the bill." NEBRASKA SAILOR JEALOUS. Threw Ammonia Over Rival and Girl. Held for Sessions. Edward Brooks, a fair-haired young sailor, who comes from Nebraska, and who has been on the receiving ship Hancock, was held this morning by Magistrate Geismar, sitting in the Adams Street Court, for the Court of Special Sessions, on two charges of assault made by John J.

Norman, another United States tar, and Esther Anderson of 271 Adams street. Both of the sailors were paying court to Miss Anderson, who is a fairhaired and plump young Swede. Norman seemed to have made the deepest impression on the Norse girl, and late on the night of May 30 he 'was standing at the corner of Jay and Tillary streets, talking to her. The young man from Nebraska came up and had some words with the pair. Then, it 1s alleged, he took a bottle of ammonia from his pocket, uncorked it and threw the contents into the faces of the other sailor and the girl.

Both were blinded, but Jack Norman got most of the fluid. In court to-day he swore that as he fell, blinded, Brooks made a jab at him with a knife. "But I fell and so the knife did not go in very deep," said he. Norman has been in the Naval Hospital ever since, but was able to get out this morning for an hour or two to testify. He told the magistrate that the doctors had assured him that he might regain the sight of his right eye, if he was lucky, in two months.
