Less than two weeks ago in police court, Judge M. D. Saxe heard a re- cital of the ill feeling existing be- tween William Prestash, 27, of Putnam street and Mrs. Joseph Dzi- at, a neighbor and former sweetheart of Prestash, and suspended judgment on the charge of breach of the pea as the testimony indicated that Pres tash's language and gestures as he passed Mrs. Dziat on Winter street on their way home from church were all that came under the allegation. Teday Prestash was before Judge Traceski in police court on the charge of .breach of the peace and | Dziat's husband, and | assaulting Mrs. a fine of $10 and costs was imposed. It developed that Prestash’s wife re- ceived a letter from her mother, who is in Europe, containing the in formation that Dziat, friends in the town where he for- merly lived, had made derogatory references to the local woman, who told her husband. Meeting Dziat in Ukrainian hall on Erwin place last Friday night, Prestash punched him in the face and marked him Dziat. after telling of the assault, denied to Attorney 1. I. Rachlin, who represented Prestash, that he had written any letters to Europe, and he claimed not to know any r why he should be uck by ta Adam Cap testified to nessing the assault a 0 who was present also told of it, after which Attorney Rachlin called Mrs. Prestash to the stand to tell about her mother's letter.

Prest then took the stand and started to go back ten months to the beginning of the trou- ble, but Judge Traceski sustained Prosecuting Attorney Woods' objec- tion. Attorney Rachlin tried several times to get the reference to the let- | ter into the evidence but each time Judge Traceski ruled it out, leaving Prestash without any defense for he could not deny that he punched Dzi- at Chases Neighbor From House Theodore Krawe, 33 of 45 Hart- ford avenue, charged with breach of the peace, was placed in charge of Probation Officer Connolly and the case was continued for one month He was arrested about 9 o'clock last night by Supernumerary Officer Lawrence Coffey, who saw him chas- ing a neighbor out of the house and learned that Krawe had ice pick to his wife, threatening kill her. Mrs. Krawe testified that she and the neighbor and the latter's wife and children went to Berlin yester- afternoon for a visit and returning she was attacked by husband, who threatened to kill and commit st cated, she said Krawe denied that he made any trouble and as for intending to us e pick on his wife or himselr it was out of the question. He had had some beer, he admitted, but he was not intoxicated and the real to upon her her He*wvas intoxi- e of the unpleasantness was hiz . action recently in calling on a ord ave storekeeper for several hours Committed to A sents State Farm nce to the state farm at Norwich was imposed in the case of John Evanowski 51 Putnam strect, charged with drunkenness and breach of the peace. He rested by Officer Thomas Tierney about 2 o'clock yesterday morning on complaint of his wife, whose face he scratched. Attorney I. I. Rach- lin reprosented Evanowski Charged with speeding, driving without a license in his possession, and passing a traffic light at Stanley and Allen streets, Alvese Mascattel li, 33, of 157 Oak street, pleaded not guilty and on request of Attorney Andrew §. Aharonian a continuance until Wednesday was ordered in $50 bonds. Officer W. S. Strolls made the arrest this morning. Percy Chatfield, 24, of 295 Village etreet, Hartford, was fined $5 and costs on the charge of speeding and $2 on the charge of passing a boule- vard stop sign at Myrtle and Burritt streets. Officer Harper testified that he and Officer O’'Day made the ar- rsst last Friday after Chatfield, who is a Negro, drove past the intersec- tion at the rate of 35 miles an hour. Chatfield, who pleaded guilty Satur- day and had his case continued un- til today, aid it was the first time he had been past the intersection kince the sign was installed and he failed to notice it. Post Bond for Support Thomas Manning, 28, of 250 North street pleaded guilty to the charge of non-support and was ordered to post a bond of 0 to guarantec payment of $10 a week towards the support of his wife and two children, aged 5 and 2 years, and week until $166 is paid, that being the cost of bringing him back from Chicago, 111, where he was arrested and turned over to Sergeant T. J Feeney. Attorney L. J. Golon, who repre- #ented him, said the welfare of the children was his first consideration was ar- and he doubted that Manning could | although he might | raise a bond, possibly be able to borrow enough to pay for the trip. Judge Traceski re- plied that he had no sympathy for a husband who would run away from home and refuse to support his dependents and he disagreed with Attorney Golon that to bring him back from Chicago was unwarrant- ed. The attorney said Manning had left to try and find employment, but Prosecuting Attorney Woods retort- ed that he had gone away with a woman other than his wife and should not be allowed to go free without posting a bond, because he wight run away again. in a letter to | taken an! also $5 a | | ‘ Mrs. Manning, when asked how much she needed for herself and | children replied that she wanted her | | husband to stay home, because the | childrn were constantly crying for him.
