Factory Watchman Tells Judge, Admitting Viola- tion of Law, One of the most touching scenes to take place in police court in a long time was enacted today by Alexand- der Rousseau of 108 Commercial street, from whose tenement a raid- ing squad of police took 88 quarts of home brew last Saturday night, the alcoholic content of the beverage be- ing 4.22 per cent by volume and 3.42 per cent by weight, according to Davenport & Keeler, chemists. Rousseau, 63 years of age, with hair so white it gives him a more venerable appearance than his age justifies, admitted that he sold the beer for 25 cents a bottle to keep the wolf from the door. With eight chil- dren to support his weekly grocery bill averages between $28 and $30, and the added expense of fuel, i surance, put a tax on his earnlhg capacity of $33 a week. Incidentally, his 18 years old daughter “has a child who is also dependent upon him for sup- ort. 5 None of his children are employed, the young mother being unable to work because of her health. “I work every day, even Satuday and Sunday.” Rousseau sobbed in a voice that almost broke with emo- tion. “What am I going to do? I have eight children to support. T was driven fo it. I couldn't let them starve.” It was hrought out that Rousscau came to this city from Maine about four years ago. “You couldn't buy a job up there,” he said. His pres- ent employment is as a watchman in a factory. Judge Saxe pointed out to him in a kindly way that regardless of his circumstances he could not expect to be permitted to violate the law. ‘There are other ways to solve your rent and other essentials| problem,” he sald. “We wouldn't get anywhere if we allowed people to sell liquor to nnppon their fami- lies.” Taking all the circumstances into consideration, including the fact that nothing but beer was sold in the tenement, Judge Saxe imposed a fine of $50. “Send me up.

As a result, while the senate was in position to proceed with its dis- cussion of the census-reapportion- ment bill, the house was still en- gaged with general debate on the tariff measure and the joint confer- ence committees of the two cham- bers on the farm proposal remain- ed in a deadlock at the very begin- ning of their deliberations. Republican leaders in the - house were hopeful, however, that they would be able to shut off the gener- al tarift debate late today or tomor- row and start consideration of amendments, The latter has been held up pending agreement by the republican majority on a special rule to fix a date for & final vote and give precedence in the mean- time to amendments introduced by members of the ways and means committec.
