LEAVES HOSPITAL FOR COURT HEARING John Senk, 66, Bound Over To- day on Liquor Charge Leaning on the arm of his wifc, who was obliged to practically lead him in and out of the court room, John Senk, aged 66, of 37 Lyman reet, faced Judge W. C. Hunger- ford in police court this morning and listened to police testimony that his store at 65 Grove street was { place where men of drinking liabits congregate and liquor is sold. His attorney, Monroe §. Gordon, of- od no defense except that the clerk of the court made a record of atement that because of Senk's cal condition it had been im- ossible to properly prepare his Hungertord found k having been 1 of viol of the liquor re, and bound him over to ior court in $1.000 bonds. When the case was called, Attor- ney Gordon asked for a continu because Senk had left the hospital only this morning, greatly to the dis- pleasure of the authorities of the institution, who considered him cally unable to attend court ause of his illness, it had been impossible to confer with him and prepare his defense, Attorney Gor- don said. Prosecuting Attorne; Woods asied that further de precluded, as there have be continuances since May 23, and the policemen have lost their sleep com- ing into court time after time, “Go on with the case,” Judge Hungerford ordered. Detective Sergeant McCue testifi that he and Detective Sergeant linger and Sergeants McAvay, Mara, and Flynn went to the store on May 21 between 2 and 3 o'clock in the afternoon. The witness re- nained outside while the others en- texed the store, as thelr information was that liquor was kept on the fruit stand outside and they intended to observe Senk's movements. After a vhile, Senk came out and saw Sergeant McCue, whereupon he turned to the store, but came out twice later. Having a search war- rant Sergeant McCue served it and arrested Senk when a glass jug of his pro convict nce uleged llquor was found in a paper | h'A;: behind a tall basket of cucum- s on the fruit stand, just where e police expected to find it, the witness sald. One man with a erim- inal record as a result of excessive drinking was in the store when the police arrived, Sergeant McCue said. Detective Sergeant Dllinger gave corroborative testimony and Prose- cuting Attorney Woods was about to have Sergeant O'Mara when Hungerford remarked that it seemed nunnecessary. Mr. -Woods Traffic Officer It’s a safe bet that the cars which step-out with the “go” signal are equipped with Champions—the better spark plug. If every | however, |in some time ago, Judge | asked, | to have the court hear Sergeant Stadler and Officer Lee. The former read a report he turned | that he had in- | formation that the moral code was violated in Senk’s store and that llqlmr also was sold. Officer Lee testified that he had 1d\'lar-d Senk prior to the raid to get | rid of cider and alcohol which Senk | claimed he had for his own use. Th officer’s advice seemed to rankle Senk who told him he had already | time in jall and he could do so agaln it necessary, according to the witness. OFFERS GIFT OF AUTO IF IT GOES 35 MILES AN HR. | But Policeman Says It Went Faster and Howard Kilbourne Iis Fined for Speeding | aged 33, of | was fined $19 Howard Kilbourne, 1634 Stanley street, and costs by Judge W. C. Hunger- | ford in police court this morning | on the charge of speeding on Stan- ley street yesterday noon despite his insistence that the car he was| driving could not iravel at the rate of 45 miles an hour, as testified by vele Officer Alfred Tanguay. | Kilbourne, owner of the car 1 that its condition is such of 45 miles an hour is out of the question, in fact, he would | ne a gift of it if it could miles an hour. Officer Tanguay testified that he | followed Kilbourne from the middle | epard’s Hill to Long strest on | Stanley street at noon and clocked | s speed at 45 miles an hour. Traf- » was fairly heay a4 Kilbourne passed three cars, the officer testi- fied. | Kilbourne, however, testified that | he saw the officer following him ana had plenty of time to reduce his speed but he was not going faster | 28 miles an hour and therefore 1 not fear the law. When the officer overnauled him he held_his hand over tha spesdometer, mu[ hourne said, but he was “too clever” the officer and obtained a of the recording apparatus on the motoreyele which showed either 46 or 47 miles an hour, Kil- hourne explained this tact by point- ing out that the motoreyele prob- Iy slowed down for a slight dis- tance and then picked up speed, but he was positive the officer's speedo- meter did not accurately record the speed of his car over the route deseribed. Judge Hungerford sald the officer !was positive in his testimony and he believed himi as against a theory that the speed might have been | within the law, or that the ear| Ilacked the power to attain a certain | speed. On the evidence at hand, he | made a finding of quilty. Aftorn Monroe 8. Gordon represented Kil- hourne. testifi for glimpse | Junior Aid Officers | Of Trinity M. E.
