Robert Fitzsimmons, who declares he is too much of an Irishman to fight for England, was in court last evening before Justice E. P. Prior to answer to the charge of intoxication, and was fined $1 and costs with judg- ment suspended on condition that he leave town. He 'had been arrested dur- ing the day by Railroad Officer Charles Grace. Fitzsimmons had been employed at the transfer station for a few days. He became intoxicated yesterday morni and was discharged because of his condition. He remained around _the freight vard, however, and Officer Grace finally locked him up to save him from death beneath the wheels of passing trains. Th man had stag- gered from in front of the Boston ex- press and was almost run down by a Waterbury train when the ofticer took him in tow. Fitzsimmons didn’t look like the us- ual type of tramp and the court was inclined to be lenient with him. Hence the suspended judgment. The accused declared that he had been in the country but a few weeks, having left 'ais home in Ireland to prevent the British from drafting him into the army. He argued that the “real” Irishmen are not in sympathy. with Great Britain and he would rath- er leave the country than fight for her. He secured his passage by tak- ing a place as fireman on the liner Baltic and when that vessel reached New York he quit his job.
