In asking Judge Benjamin W, Al. ling In ypolice court this morning to bonds for the release of Harry 1eibish, Lastford street, Hart- ford, at $5,000, Prosecutor Joseph G. Woods sald that the case was one of the most important to be tried in the local police court for a long tinie. Scheibish was arralgned with Joseph Goldberg of 117 Portland street, Hartford on charges of vio- lating the Hquor laws by transport- ing and having liquor with Intent to gell. With the arrest of Schebish, the police believe that they have appre- hended the ring leader of a rum- running gang that has been bringing liquor into Hartford for a long time. His arrest is understood to have re- sulted from {information given the police by Goldberg, who was arrest- vesterday morning near ‘Wooster street on the Plainville road v State Patrolman Kelly after a se from Cheshire into this city. Goldherg had 60 gallons of alcohol in his automobile, Trosecutor Woods had the case continued until next Tuesday for trial and the court set the bond for Scheibish at 85,000 and for Goldberg at 82,000, It is understood that the only evidence the police now have ainst Scheibish is the statement of Goldberg, but an investigation is he- ing conducted by which they hope to secure additional evidence against him, It Is the first time that Goldberg has been arrested for violating the liquor laws, the pollce stated, but ejbish has been arrested on many ions.

They held guns levelled on him while they searched his machine, After the arch was completed, the men al- lowed him to go with the statement that they were state policemen look- ing for stolen automobiles. As they did not examine the machine as would be done if the search was for Bowman, of New York.
