Dr. Ralph J. Le- Beau testified to that also, but nefther doctor was able to say whether the man was under the influence of liquor or not. Prosccuting Attorney William Groenstein asked Dr. Waskowitz if he had applied the eye test to the man | to see if he was under the influence of liquor. The doctor said that he had | never heard of it and that nobody | else ever did, as he had looked it up {and was unable to find anything about {it. Pressed by the prosecutor, he said that there might be such a test, but be could not find anything about | | it. He #aid that the only test that h gave the man was to smell his breath Judge Alling said that there was no {doubt in his mind that Cianci was drunk when he was driving the ma- chine,sand whether the shock of the accldent sobered him off or not was immaterial. Tried to Destroy Evidence. Tadeus Tazicki of 333 Park street was found guilty of having a reputa- tion and keeping liquor with intent to sell, Tazicki's house was raided and the police found a gallon jug about half full of aleohol in the pantry. They went to the cellar and found a five gallon can of alcohol which Ta- zicki claimed was not his. When the police went ups ain and asked Tazicki for the jug of moonshine, he told them that he had emptied it into the sink. The empty jug and the can | of alcohol were taken by the police and Tazicki arrested. Thomas Bresky of Main street, | tormer boarder of the defendant’s, was |the first wilness to testify for the | state, and his testimofly caused Judge lAIllng to remark that he did not know but what he should be charged He left it to the discre- prosecutor. with perjury | Uon of the ‘ Bresky apprarcd at the police sta- | tion Sunday night and told the police that Tazicki was selling moonshine | and that he was going down there 1o | purchase some from him and bring it | to the police. He left the station with | Sash Sangosky and shortly after re. turned with about a pint of moon- | clothes line in the shine which he said he had bought| from Tazicki for $1. i In court this morning he | proved to| on Park street a §1 bill and they had gone some place to get the liquor lor| bhim. He did not know wh they nad purchased it, he said said that he had contributed for the liquor but did not know w1 it was purchased, except that Bres told him that he brought it from Ta zicki. ividence was presented by peopie who live in the pext house to the defendant’s that they had seen him take two five gallon cans of something from a machine a week ago Sunday and carry them into his cellar. A year old boy who lives in the neigh- borhood testified tbat on numerous occasions he had seen the proprietor of a restaurant under Tazicki unload cans from a machine and carry them into the cellar, The boys ulso said that he had seen the restaurunt man and his brother go to the cellar many times & day and they always had glass with them, Attorney Alfred Le- Witt represented the defendant, Failed to Clean Walk I'rank Savitski of 386 Eroad strect was flned $2 tor falling to clear the snow from his walk.
