The informant said he was coming in from Plainville Saturday night and passed the accused. He stopped and demanded payment of money owed | by both, and being unable to pay and fearing exposure in their trafficking of liquor, they turned over the booze car and contents. He drove the stuff to the barn. Later he was attacked by | Bascetti and in revenge told the po- lice about the booze deal, he said.

He drove the consignment of liquor to Jerome street where they met Varelll who then took the stuff. He is said to have admitted that he had transported loads of liquor from of several months and had acted M' agent for several retailers in booze. He was in partnership with Varelll and a man named Pavano, he said. On one occasion booze was spld to a man named Karbonik who was sub- sequently arrested and fined.
