FINED §150° FOR RECKLESS DRIVING: Arch Street Man Assessed Heavily | &: ~Miasnik Pays for Resmmg Gop |- Judge George W. Klett, occupying the bench in police court ing, suggested a charge of r driving in the case of Pasqua flots of Arch street, during his trial on & count of evading responsibility, aid | afterward imposed fines $75 and | costs on each bf the two charges. Saffiot! was arrested last night as 2 result of an automobile accident Y.:Ifl: in the afternoon on Sta street, His car is alleged to lave sideswiped a sedan driven oy Charles O. Blake of | New Haven The went on his way. Blake Jater caug ip with | the lozal man and demanded to kKnow why he had not observed the require- | nients of a state statute relative to stopping to determine the extent of damage. His reply was that he had not struck Blake's car and therefore | was not interested Both cars were coming toward New | Britain, At Tbelle's corner car came up from behind and in pass- | ing the Blake automobile struck the rear fender and hub cap, according to witnesses, driving the car up al bank and close to a tree. After right- | ing his car, Mr. Blake gave chase. At Francis street, the Arch street man was obliged to stop for a standing tralley car, making it possible for the New Haven car to catch up. Saffioti | at onc2 denjed having figured in the | accident He looked over the Tlake car, a fender, a hub cap and radiator of which showed the result of impact Lieut. Fred Linn of the fire depart- ment, an experienced driver, examined | both cars at police headquarters, He expressd a belief that it would have been impossible for the cars to have been so damaged without both drivers being aware that there had been a erash. Policeman Herbert Lyon offer- ed similar testimony as did Detective Sergeant W. P. McCue, who made the arrest Saffioti took the stand today and submitted that he had not struck; Rlake's car, offering as evidence to support that statement to allow any- one in court to look over hos car. He | said there was not a single scratch on it. Later he said a hub cap was miss- ing, but that it was lost two wWeeks ago; also a fender was broken, but it was broken before the car was pur- chased by him. Condemnation proceedings, uncon- tested, were brought in the cases of Thomas and Joseph Tuskowski. Vartun Kartounian of Bristol was found guilty of parking his car in a restricted district. Judgment was suspended. Judge Klett felt that the accused, having lost a half day's work | at the factory, had paid sufficiently for his offense. Carl O. Johnson paid the costs of prosecution for operating a motor- cycle without lights. He was arrested on South Main street last night by Policeman W. P. Doherty. Policeman James Post brought in Demetri Miasnik this morning for drunkenness, breach of the peace and resistance. The accused was placed under arrest at the corner of Wash- ington and Broad streets upon com- plaint of his wife, who told the po- liceman that he had administered a | beating to her. The bluecoat was struck on the jaw when he was about to taks Demetri away, and it was nec- essary for him to use rough tactics to bring his man along, he told the court this morning. The accused had been at a pienic all day and was imbibing freely. When he returned home, he found his wife had stored a barrel of whiskey mash in the house. Demetri had been fined twice on liquor charges and feared a jail term should the stuff be found there, so he proceeded to destroy it. When his wife interfered, he struck her. Fines of 10 on the drunkenness and assault charges were suspended and a 815 fine for resistance was ordered DIRECTORS MEET Chamber of Commerce Officials cokless Saf. aceuses t Dis- cuss Various Affairs—Chautauqua | Opens July 8.

These comments, directed chiefly at the new premier, Baron Tomosaburo Kato who took |ofMice today, are reinforced by oth- ers levelled at his policy of naming |a non-party government which af- fects all the members. Most of the members have seen service in former cabinet or in other governmental positions. Three are retained from the Takahashi minis- try—Viscount Uchida, who holds the foreign affairs portfolio, and Enkichi Oki, minister of rallways, aside from |the premier. The new ministry takes office as- sured of the support of the Seiyukai, the majority party in the Diet, and the fact that seven of its members are peers is expected to give it a powerful claim on the support of the upper chamber of the government. The change in government cast no cloud over prospects for ratification of the agreements negotiated at the; Washington arms conference; in mc' the new cabinet assumes office pperl-| fically committed to the observance of the Washington arms conference agreement in letter and spirit. Kato's only condition precedent to acceptance of the premiership was reduction of the war department's es- timate by yen 40,000,000, San Francisco, June 12.—The Jap- anese-American, a local Japanese language newspaper, today prints a Tokio cablegram to the effect that ex-Premier Takahashi on relinquish- ing office today to Premier Kato to- day issued a statement promising support to his successor. This newspaper asserts that Taka- hashi bad a material share in the organization of the new cabinet and offered his assistance to his successor in facing the difficulties of the post. Parallcl Carcers. Almiral Baron Tomosaburo Kato, who today took up the mantle of premiership laid down by Viscount Korsikiyo. Takahashi is 61 years of age and three years older than Li Yuan Hang, the veteran Chinese statesman who almost at the same hour undertook, as president, the piloting of China’s distressed ship of state. Admiral Kato was born in Hiroshi- ma prefecture in 1861. Like Presi- dent Li of China, he turned to a naval career early in life. Both graduated from their country’'s naval academies but while Kato con- tinued his life on the sea, Li trans- ferred to land service. Both saw active service on opposing sides dur- ing the Chinese-Japanese war. The new Japanese premier entered the Russo-Japanese war as a captain and emerged as a rear admiral, with the decoration of the second class or- der of the golden kite. In 1906 he entered the Sienji min- istry as vice minister of the navy, pated in hostilities as commander er of Kure naval port. In 1913, he was named commander of the first squadron and at the out- break of the world war he partici- pated in hospitalities as commander of the battleship Setsu. When the Okuma cabinet was part- ly reconstructed in 1915 Kato took over the navy portfolio, which he has retained throughout the lives of the Terauchi, Hara and Takahashi minis- tries.

Rill of Danielson into the grade cross- ing accident at Devil's Den crossing, which locally has been referred as the death crossing, in which three lives were lost yesterday.
