Mes- kill in police court this morning on charges of assault and breach of the peace respectively, arising out of the stabbling affray of Saturday night in which James La- pinio was stabbed in the chest and back. During the trial evidence was in- troduced to show that the man who wielded the knife was Alfredo Russo, who has since skipped town. Victim Very Weak. Much weakened and decidedly pale, Lapinio, brought from the hospital this morning, tottered to the witness stand to testify. He told of being in Laraia’s saloon on Spring street late last Saturday night and during an argument on the street being hit in the chest with a knife. Later, he said, Joseph Deseno and Patsey Dem- mereno and others followed him and on Beaver street the fight w re- newed. Joseph Deseno had a revol- ver and he wrested it from him, said the victim, when he was stabbed twice in the back. Lapinio was in such a weakened condition today that he frequently had to pause for breath during his description of the fight. Officer Hellberg, who took Lapinio to the hospital told of his wounds, and Officer McCue told of ¥inding Lapinio and Deseno wrestling in the gutter, the former holding a gun. Marty O'Michael of Bristol gave but little valuable testimony. He said there was a fight but he could not the cases last St | tell who the assailants wete. As he was running for a policeman, he said, Patsy told him to stop or he would shoot him. Officer Larogue told of assisting in the arrest. Russo Is Accused. Mrs. Vincenzo Deseno, wife of one of the accused, said that about mid- night Saturday night a man named Alfredo Russo rushed up to her door and told her he had just stabbed a man and he wanted her husband to go out and assist in caring for him. Then it was, she said, that she saw the fight outside. A niece of Demmereno also accused Russo, declaring she had seen him stab Lapinio twice and flee. Demmereno himself denied the stabbing. He said Deseno and La- pinio were quarreling together and, failing to separate them, he left them and went away. He denied hitting either, although Lapinio asserted that he had punched him in the jaw. The accused said he saw Russo stab Lapinio. Joseph Deseno denied Lapinio’s ac- cusation that he had the revolver. He said “I have lived here seventeen vears and never even carried a pin with me.” He said Russo stabbed Lapino in the shoulder first and Russo then followed him and renewed the fight, stabbing him twice in the back. His part in the fight was merely that of a peacemaker, the witness said. He denied ownership of the revolver and said that Lapino either had it or found it on the ground. Lawyer Hungerford told the court that Lapino's mind was clouded about the fight and his testimony was not convincing. He called attention to the fact that the only evidence against Demmereno was the charge that he punched Lapino while trying to separate the fighters. Prosecutor Klett declared that the witnesses were trying to ‘“cover up” all except Russo who has fled. Judge Meskill fined Deseno $15 and costs and Demmereno $10 and costs. Vagrancy Charged. Henry Hayden, for years well known teamster, driving for the P. & F. Corbin company, was arrested by Officer Kerin early today for va- grancy. He was sleeping in a wagon in the rear of O'Dell's drug store on Main street. Judgment was suspend- ed when Hayden promised to cease his vagrant tactics. Fined And Arrested Again. Police court means but little to Charles Katushsky. Yesterday Char- les was fined $5 and costs for as- saulting Adam Tuskowsky and the latter was fined $10 and costs for as- saulting him. The feature of yes- terday’s trial was when Charles said his lacerated features were caused by Adam digging up his face with a corn- cob pipe. Immediately after court Adam invited Charles into a saloon | to have a drink. They had two ! drinks and at the conclusion of the second round Charles grabbed his beer glass and hurled it with unerring aim at the back of Adam’s ear. Charles explained his act by saying | that Adam had twitted him too much. According to the witness, Adam said, “Sure, I was arrested and fined but I dia give it to you all right.” Katushsky's private fortune was further depleted this morning ewnh further depleted this morning when Judge James T. Meskill imposed a fine of $10 and costs for yesterday’s post-court fracus. MINSTRELS REHE. a SING.

MILLS HARDWARE T GR T n DIRECT WIRES T0 NEIGHBORING TOWNS Alter Sunday Gall_Bristol and Southington With Ease with the October issue of the Telephone effect on Beginning of the telephone drectory Southern New England company, which goes Sunday, a new toll line service will be offered, where a number call sired, between the New Britain Bristol and New Britain and South- ington exchanges. Special toll wir have been installed between the ex- changes named to take care of this business which, because of the feature of speed, is expected to be most at- tractive. It is in effect between a number 'of other exchanges about the state and in every instance is working out in a highly satisfactory manner, The method of handling this bus ness was explained at the local into is de- and lows: ‘‘Let us suppose your telephone number is 821 and you wish 82-1 Bristol. You will remove your re- ceiver from the hook and when the local operator answers say to her: ‘Bristol 82-1 for 821 You will then remain at your telephone just as on a local call until the telephone in Bristol has heen answered or the re- port has been given that they do not “So far as the subscriber is con- answer. | cerned the call is just the same as a local call except that the name of the exchange in which the desired tele- phone is located is prefixed to the number of that telephone and your own number given. “As soon as you give the local op- erator the proper information she plugs into one of the special jacks on the local switchboard in New Britain in which these direct ‘A-B’ wires, as they are called, to Bristol terminate. She is answered by a local operator in Bristol to whom she repeats the num- ber you desire. The operator then completes the connection just as she would do on an ordinary local call. “It will be seen that in this system of handling calls for numbers be- tween the exchanges given, it is not necessary for the subscriber to ask for toll line, as the toll line operators do not enter into the handling of the call.” BOY STRANGELY MISSING Alexander Lee, 13, of Hartford Avenue, Gone Since Last Friday.— No Clue to His Whereabouts.
