A full house greeted Mr, Green- pod last night, more than half being w fhces. His subject was “The War d World Conditions: .Do They Por- nd the Soon’Coming of Christ ” e said that universal peace with the fesence of Christ is an irridescent ¢am. Jesus Christ said “Wars and fmors of wars were to mark the e till its consummation.

Meskill in police court today and held for superior urt under a finding -of probable cause. Despite the plea of counsel for the defense, bonds were increased from $250 to $500. The amount was furnished. Attorneys-J. A. Glover and M. D. Saxe appeared for the defense. The hearing was lengthy, much of the testimony tak- en through an interpreter. There were numerous witnesses for the state and defense. The arrest resulted from clever work by Detective A. J. Richardson and his tracing of $20 bills, the sum taken being composed of bills of this denomination, with the exception of one $10 bill. It was announced that the arrest was somewhat premature because Isidore Basson, son of a mer- chant in that neighborhood, had in- formed Mrs. Gifalo that the police had asked him to watch out for any $20 bills presented by her at the stor lusive $20 bills and an attempt to e them and explain their use com- ed the testimony used by both prosecution and defense. Prosecuting Attorney George W. Klett presented the landlord, milk dealer, grocer, beer wagon driver and several others with whom the accused traded. They testified that shortly after the time of the .money’s disappearance, she ap- peared to have received considerable money and paid them. 1In, at least, two instances $20 bills were used. The accused said that ske borrowed the money. Two boarders testified to having loaned her $20 each. They were somewhat vague in their remem- brance as to the circumstances and, under the close cross examination of Prosecutor Klett, did not fully re- member as to how they happened to have that amount of money with them at that time and as’to where they got it. Attorney Saxe caused smiles on the faces of court officials and others in his contention that it is not common for people to have $20 bills in their possession and that this was nothing that could be regarded as conclusive evidence against the accused, even if her husband, Salvatore, had been out of work and she had previously in- formed police and tradespeople that she had no money. Joseph Welsh of 3 Sexton street and Joseph Carroll of 102 Sexton street were fined $5 and costs each for as- sault upon Ludwig Warnet and Walter Baslwiewicz of 286 Elm street. It was testifled that the assault last night was a result of trouble Hallowe'en night. Both af the accused are minors and have been in trouble before.

Welsh recently returned from militia duty on the border. Closely linked with this case was that of Baslwie- wicz, who was fined $10 and costs for assault upon Martin Walsh, cousin of Joseph. Tt was testified that the as- sault took place on Hallowe'en night. The warrant was issued November 1 and since then Baslwiewicz had been unsuccessfully sought. Judgment was suspended in the case of William Lavanis, charged with breach of the peace. William said that he has been working on a farm and was unable to get his former hoarding house far Thanksgiving dinner. He said that his boarding boss was angry because he did not and thought it was an insinuation against the quality of the dinner and put him out when he did appear. Lavanis sought aid of the police but did it in such a way as to cause his arrest. He was advised to get a new boarding place.
