Meskill in police court this morning charged with as- saulting Adam Majuski of Gold street last Monday afternoon at the jocal passenger station. Lambert pleaded not guilty and Wwas repre- :ented by Attorney Shepard, a rail- road lawyer. Tells of Assault. Majuski said he boarded a train at Willimantic for Hartford. Between Hartford and New Britain . the. con- ductor did not ask him for his fare, but as he was leaving the train he said the assistant conductor rughed | up to him and demanded his fare in a hurry. Majuski said he tendered the conductor a quarter and was told the fare was sixty-six cents for hjm- self and wife. As he was pulling out a roll of bills and some change he said the assistant conductor grabbed the money in one hand and punched him in the jaw with the other, knock- ing him down. Majuski exhibited a Lruised chin. FHe said he could not positively identify the man who hit him. He also said that of $32 he had, there was but $14 left when he got home. August Paul testified to seeing the assistant conductor grab the money and knock Majuski down. Paul did not get a front view of the conductor, so could not positively identify him. Paul said he picked Majuski up from the platform. Arrested in Waterbury. Mrs. Majuski told of the assault on husband, which she declared was unprovoked. She said that her hus- band was almost knocked under the wheels of the train by his assailant. Captain Grace testified to Majuski’s condition immediately after the as- sault. Detective Sergeant Bamforth, who arrested Conductor Lambert in Waterbury yesterday, said he ad- mitted to him that he punched a man in New Britain Monday. Moves for Discharge. Attorney Shepard moved for a dis- charge on the ground of lack of proper identification, regardless of Lambert’s admission that he hit a man ‘at the depot. On the judge's est, Sergeant Ramforth was re&l to the stand and reoited at lI;m?his talk with TLambert. He st accused told him the trouble in detail he had with Majuski, saying. the plaintiff had re- fused to pay his fare. He said Lam- and he struck back, jumped on the train and went away. a discharge. Lambert Claims Sclf Defense. has collected tickets for the past ten yvears. He said he was on the train saw Majuski on the train. He said that just before leaving the car at New Britain he asked Majuski for sixty-six cents for himself and. wife, explaining about the rebate check. and appeared to be ‘“‘stallinrg’” until the should have to leave without getting the money. Just as the train pulled out he said Majuski pulled out some change and then tried to shove it back into his pocket. grabbed Majuski’s hand and took eleven cents. Lambert sail Majuski made a swing at him and he struck back in self defense, as he thought he was justified. Lambert bruised knuckles to the judge, indi- cating where he had struck the com- plainant. Lambert made an excellent witness until Prosecutor Klett asked him if he had not told a brakeman that he had “just smashed a fellow in New Brit- ain.” made the statement and then hesi- tated, became confused and finally “withdrew” his statement and de- clared he had not mentioned the af- fair to another brakeman. Lambert denied that anyone picked Majuski up. but said he picked himself up and rushed at him, intending to strike | back. Lambert said he at first took Majuski along the platform looking 1 | for a policeman to have him arrested. i Other R. R. Men Testify. ho ‘W. Cooper of Boston, a trainman working with Lambert last Monday, said he did not see Majuski until he saw the altercation on the New Brit- ain platform. He corroborated Lam- bert’s statement and said he saw Ma- | Juski make a punch at the ticcket taker, after which Lambert knocked him down. Thomasx Anderson of Bristol, en- gineer =g ‘he train between New Britain and Berlin on Labor Day, was at the depot at the time of the trou- ble, He said he saw Lambert and Majuski and said he saw the latter attempt to strike the railroad man whereupon the latter knocked him down. In summing up, termed the offe asked that a posed. He re “‘withdrawing” T dence that he was truthful witness. For the defense Attorney Shep- ard said Majuski had invoked the aid of the state. He declared that the main point is that Majuski had given Lambert reasonable reason to believe he was about to be assaulted him- self and struck anly in justifiable self defense. Accused Is Convicted. Judge M 11 ruled that Lambert was not justified in the assault and imposed a fine of $10 and costs. Bonds for appeal were fixed at $300. Lambert paid up. Assault Case Tried.

She said that Martino struck her across the head and arm with a stick and | when her sister, Rose and her mother interfered they, too, were struck. Ruth declared that Mrs. Martino took up her son’s battle and pulled her hair. - Officer Cosgrove made the arrest. Isidore Yam, nine years gld, but “very intelligent,” according to Law- yer Hungerford, testified that Albert struck the three people while they were on their own veranda. The “intelligent” witness, produced by -the defense, proved a valuable witness for the state. Thomas Duffy said the Calani fam- ily annoyved the Martino boy and his mother and he denied seeing any blows struck. Rosie Siedman, a neighbor, said the Calani girls used a broom in chasing the Martinos. Mrs. Amelia Bucchi, mother of the accused laid the entire blame on the complainants. Martino was found guilty as as- saulting each of the complainants and was fined $5 and costs for each of- se, making a total fine of $15 and He was placed on probation until he pays up.
