Following an ar- gument over work, McMahon said McQuiston hit him in the back of the head and then snatched his cane from him and walloped him over the head, inflicting bad bruises. Officer Moore made the arrest. McQuiston characterized McMahon as the most disagreeable man he ever worked for. He said McMahon works his men from 4:30 a. m. till after 6:30 p. m. and during the entire day is abusive in his orders. During the argument over work McMahon told him that every time he talked back to him it would cost him a dollar. The ac- cused also said that McMahon poked him in the ribs with his cane and at- tempted to hit him, when he took the cane away from him and rapped him over the head several times. Asked if he had ever been in an insane re- treat, McQuiston first said: *“Who told vou?”" and then denied the charges. He was sent to jail for three months Jake Jennings, charged with as- saulting Joseph Gorman, pleaded not guilty and the case was continued until Saturday. Officer Twining made the arrest in a lot near Tremont street carly this morning. It is said that as Jennings and William J. Sullivan were walking up Tremont street sev- eral others met them and they ad- journed to the lot to fight it out. Gor- man could not be located when the police looked for him. James Smith, released from the state farm at Norwich yesterday, was arrested at 4 a. m. today by Officer Axel Carlson on West street where his brother and sister-in-law charged him with drunkenness and breach of the peace. He was sentenced to three months in Jjail. Sargis Benjamin, charged with breach of the peace, asked for a con- tinuance in order that he might get a lawyer. The case was continued until Friday. Charges of fighting were preferred against Adam Pawlick, Steve Paw- lick, 'Adam Spasensky, Walter Wisk and Joseph Wisk, all of whom were arrested by Officer Hayes yesterday afternoon. The trouble occurred over a load of hay. The Wisk boys claimed that they were entitled to the hay in payment for plowing done earlier in the season, while the other claimed to have hought the hay from a man Quarter farmer, named Barnowski. Both parties ar- rived yesterday to harvest the crop and the fight started, rakes, pitch- forks and fists figuring prominently in the melee. Barnowski denied giv- ing. the hay to the Wisks and said he sold it .to the others The Wisk brothers were .fined $5 each, while the others were discharged . Oh You Kid! Costs $25. Gureme Denjia, arrested by Officer Hahn on Church street last night, pleaded not guilty to a breach of the peace charge. It was claimed that Denjia was annoying passing women and refused to move. Officer Daniel Cosgrove gave corroborative testi- mony, saying that “Oh you kid” was the favorite salutation the accused used. A fine of $25 and costs was im- posed. John Simme, known in Berlin as “Smoky John,” a well known eccen- tric character, was charged with breach of the peace and vagrancy. Officer Hayes made the arrest on Kensington avenue. The accused said he was hungry and asked for food. He was sent to jail for thirty days for vagrancy. Mike and Paul Walicki denled caus- ing trouble in Bromberg's saloon yes terday. The men got into an argu- ment among themselves over the pay- ment of a loan and when the bar room proprietor interferred they joined forces and proceeded to rip his shirt to shreads. Officer Frank Moore made the arrest. Fines of $7 and costs were imposed on each. Steve Plazewzky pleaded not guilty to a breach of the peace but when Officer Howley and other ,witnesses told of a fight in Morris’ saloon his denial carried but little weight and he was fined $10 and costs.

DOESN'T CLAIM EXEMPTION to Take army who have en- Bailey, army;: B; Robert Ber- Edward Dobson Harold Lec Judd Is Willing His Chances With the Rest—Few Have Enlisted. Harold Lee Judd of this city and Minneapolis, who was one of the first New Britain men drafted, has said that he will not fight for exemption, but is perfectly willing to let the law take its course and take his chances and do his bit. Mr. Judd, who was married in 1915 to Mrs. Charles G. Gates, has a fortune in his own name in addition to the enormous wealth of his wife. From his position on the draft list it would appear that Mr. Judd will be one of the mern sum- moned in the first draft, but before he can be taken into the draft army he will have to pass a rigid physical examination as will all other men. At present Mr. Judd is devoting con- siderable time to working with the Connecticut Council of Defense vol- unteer clerks. Already scores of young men are getting ready for the draft and as vet comparatively few of those whe Will be drafted here have expressed a desire to enlist, pYeferring to be members of the conscript army which, they believe, will be made up of more of thelr friends and there- fore more congenial. All day long crowds of men and women are scan- ning the registration lists posted in city hall, looking for certain num- bers to ascertain positions on the draft list. . The exemption boards have also already received several applications for exemption and there have also appeared a few men who are eager to take their examinations at once and either be drafted or exempted. The men will, however, be compelled to await their turn on the list. Mothers, sisters and other friends are also coming forward thus, soon to heg ex- emption for their relatives and friends whose names appear on the lists. PYTHIAN SISTERS.
