concur.
The plaintiff seeks to enjoin the defendant’s alleged unlawful interference with his hauling in the innocuous carcasses of animals, Avhich, though not fit for food, are his property, from points Avithin the city, through the public .streets, to his rendering works without the city. Judgment was rendered against him beIoav on demurrer to his petition. California Reduction Co. v. Sanitary Reduction Works, 199 U. S., 306.
In the exercise of the police poAver, municipal corporations are authorized by Section 1536-761, Revised Statutes, to regulate the disposal of dead animals. But inasmuch as dead animals are valuable for purposes other than food, and the right of private property therein clearly exists, the city’s right to regulate the disposal thereof is limited to the reasonable necessities of the public health and AA^elfare.
The petition alleges that the interference complained of is unlawful and that the carcasses in question are not noxious. The demurrer should therefore have been OA^erruled. Whether the petition is vulnerable to a motion to make definite and certain Ave do not decide, nor is it necessary to speculate what ordinance regulations, if any, on the subject may be valid. That issue can doubtless be raised by ansAver- to the merits.
Reversed and remanded.
