TWO FOUND GUILTY AS TIRE THIEVES Ope dailed for 30 Days and Gompanion Fined $89 Frank Volonino, aged 26, of 15 Hurlburt street, told a strange story in police court today when he and Joseph Stanlonis, aged 21, of 102 Broad street were arraigned | before Judge Saxe on the charge of theft of & tire, tube and rim from the automobile of Philip J. Smitit of 935 Staniey street. He said he | and his wife have been at logger- heads over the latter's hours and he wade up his mind that he would stay out Saturday night and when he returned in the carly hours of the Sabbath, he would ask her “how she liked it.” Accordingly he and Stanlonis went to the state tair at Charter Oak park and an return- | ing to New Britain decided to drive into the Elks property on Washing- ton street and have a few hours sleep. He was just dozing off about 1:45 o'clock when he was startied at the flash of a policeman’s flash- light and heard Officer M. J. Moore demand to know what he was doing there. He did not know that Stan- lonis had gone to Smith’s car which was parked nearby and removed the spare tire, which he placed on the spare tire rack on the rear of | Volonino's car, and he was greatly | surprised to be charged with the | theft. Questioned as to his right to crate a car, Volonino admitted that | he has not obtained a license and | explained that he has worked out a | scheme whereby he will first pay for his car and then attend to the matter of a license. He has been driving the car for some time with- out a license, but he has always been careful to have a licensed op- crator ut his side, “If you could sell Smith’s tire it would help to pay for your nmew car, wouldn't it?” Prosecuting Attorney Woods observed, but Volonino repeated thut he had no part in the theft. Stanlonis admitted that he had | taken the tire off Smith's ar and placed it where Officer Moore found | it, but he absolved Volonino from complicity and said he must have been “out of my head” when he did it. He and his companion had been | drinking and that was probably the cause of the thett, he said. e would have repluced the tire had ot the officer come at once, he maintained as he had not intende to keep it. Judge Saxe imposed a jail sen- tence of 30 duys on Stanlonis, re- | marking that he did not know but a more scvere penalty should be imposed in view of the scriousness of the offense, and the bad record Stanlonis had against him. In the case of Voloniny, Judge Saxe suid he did not believe that he was en- tirely innocent, but he took into consideration the fact that he Va not actually removed the tire also the absence of previous u on his record. He fined him § costs, | Officer Moore testified that he saw @ car drive into the yard but be did not know who was at the wheel. He followed it within a few minutes and found Volonino at the wheel, while his companion was b Lind the car. Both said they were “resting” but the officer noticed the tire hanging on the rack and the cover on the ground. He also no- ticed the empty rack on Smith's car | and after handcuffing the suspects, | he called 8mith from the Elks' club | and he readily identified the tire. | At police headqaarters, a nut found in Stanlonis’ pocket was matched with the fastener on Smith's spare tire rack, although Stanlonis, on the witness stand, insisted that he ad found it on the floor of Volonino's car. | Smith dentified the tire which was in court and said it was worth more than $40, including tube and rim. The value stated in the com- plaimt drawn by the prosccuting at- torney was $ Smith told the court that both young men were very insolent to him and the officer ¢ at the time of the arrest. | John achisti, aged 30, of 33§ Main street won point pool match from William Rourke, alins William Thompson, aged 32, of 52 Main street in a pool room at 109 Myrtle street about 9 o'clock urday night but Kourke was intoxi- cated and would not pay for the game as per nent, The result was that the proprietor of the place | tried to hold the men and a | crowd wus attracted by the seuffle on the sidewalk geant Feeney and Officers Kiely and Licbler Lap- pened to be driving past the place and arrested Nachisti on the harg: of breach of the peace Rourke admitted that he was at fault. “I lost the game and 1 should have paid. he said. “You lost your head, too,” Mr. Woods interjcted < 1 admit it," was the reply Saxe imposed a fine of $5 ts on Nachisti xnd $7 the drunkenness larg Judge without ¢ and Charge judgient on peace count Bil: Grove strect 15 of 21 Broad Jacob, nged 37 ore charged “h of the ther. costs in Rourke's ca th on suspending bresch of the eve d Sehab: ind 1 Main cman of 455 with drunkennes and assanlting Iecney testi rests in streot He home beinsg near commotion and the he k ght common week-ends, the sergeant of the trio live at the wers rested strect wh peace Sergeant at made th in the rear of ut 11 o'clock 1 t to rotire, h when he heard stizat he hti was thres hen rhood oceun unk cas upset aronsed, on soid.

New Britain de- livered 17 votes for Lonergan and |17 for Thoms, the unsuccessful can- |didate for governor. | When Secretary A. 8. Lynch read- ing the roll call reached New Brit- ain district, Judge Willlam F. Man- |gan, chairman of the dclegation |arose and announced that the 17 | votes would be given as a unit to | Lonergan. Objection was voiced to |the entry ot a unit vote because no | written notice had been presented. | This was due to the fact that the | solid vote had not decided upon un- |til the convention was about to |open. At that time Lonergan had 16 votes and the 17th, James R. Halloran, remained adamant in his opposition to the Hartford can- didate. Halloran was swung over later. Because the unit vote had not been recorded with the conven- tion officers the roll was called and each delegate answered ‘“Loner- gan." George LeWitt, nominee for see- retary of state, was nominated for the office by Patrick F. McDonough Mr. McDonough spoke at length on Mr. Le Witt's ability to fill the of- fice, stressing his legal training and his success in business. There were no other nominations for the office and the place went to the local man by unanimous vote. The New Britain forces worked diligently in the interest of Le Witt. Headquarters of the Hardware City delegates in the Taft hotel, were the busiest in the building, those of the senatorial and gubernatorial candi- dates not excepted, Early in the afternoon the drive to place Mayor Puonessa on the state ticket was gotten under way when not only individual delegates, but also committees from districts came to his headquarters and urg- ed him to have his name entered us a candidate for lieutenant governor. the position for which Judge Kran- cis A, Pallotti aspired in the repub- lican ticket, but for which he was defcated. Paonessa declined to run. As the word was passed from one headquarters to another that Paon- essa would be drafted for the place, Frank P. Fenton, the only avowed andidate for lieutenant governor alled at the New Britain rooms to verify the report. Mayor Paonessa authorized him to inform delegates that he would take the convention floor and decline if any attempt was made to draft him. He likewise turned a deaf ear to suggestions that he be a candidate for secretary of state and later for comptroller. Mr. McDonough was ene of the delegation appointed to notify Mr. Lonergan of his nomination for the senate and he escorted the nomi- nee to the hall when Lonergan ar- rived to make his acceptance speech, Mr. McDonough was also on the resolutions committee. Loneiyn Leads Four Mr. Lonersan led the field of four candidates for the scnatorlal nomi- nation, capturing 51 ballots more than the number necessary to win on the first ballot. Robert P. Bui- ller of Hartford, presented to the convention as the ‘“organization's candidate, recefved whatever votes National Committecman ‘thomas J. Spellacy's forces could corral for I him in less than three days of can- didacy. Mayor Alfred N. Phillips of Stamford, who was low man in the race told a Herald representative he will seek to be the party's nominec to oppose Senator Hiram Bingham when his term expires, The vote for senator was record- |ed as follows: Augustine Lonergun, 414; Robert P. Butler, 185; Patrick B. O'Sullivan, Alfred N. Phii- 46, The race for governor was closer with Charles G. Morris having 387 | votes and Willium E. Thoms 325. As a result of the convention, the rollowing ticket will be put In the field by the democrats this year: Augustine Hartford | United States Charles G. | Morris, Newtown, governor; Frank | p.
