Three cascs, all concerned with automobiles and traffic law viola- tions, came before the town court of Berlin in the session last night. The cases of John Timko of New Britain and Frank Garrich of Ken- sington, participants in a crash at Upson's corner on September 7, was heard first by the court, and fully an hour was required before Judge George G. Griswold discharged the case on the grounds of insufficient cevidence for the conviction of either party. Testimeny was glven by both par- ticipants in the accident, in which Timko's car turned over “I don't know how many times.” according to him, Garrich knew very little of the mishap, having been knocked out by the ‘impact of the crash. Timko was represen®d by Attorney Willlam E. Hagearty of New Brit- ain and Garrich relied on his own testimony. Hagearty argued that the case was one not for a criminal court but rather for civil action. Judge Griswold ended the pro- cedure by dischargihg both cases.

Two persons have been bitten, one serioysly, in a new dog outburst here within the past 48 hours de- spite the quarantine which has been in effect for some time.

This dog, not inoculated, is belicved to have been tied up. It is not thought that it is rabid. To Revise City Charter Attorney Francis V. Tracy, cor- poration counsel, last night recom- mended at a meeting of the city council that the city charter be re- vised and stated that he thought it best that Mayor W. Raymond Crumb or the council appeint a committee of citizens, representing all walks of life here, to study the matter and prepare a revision after a number of public hearings had been held. Attorney Tracy remarked, “I refér particularly to the ordinances which fill up the back of the book. They have never been en- forced and do not carry a penalty. All are covered by laws in the state legislature.” Heq teld the council that the city charter was “antiquated” and that considerable: of its “dead” matter should be stricken out. Mavyor | Crumb appointed a committee, un- der the chairmanship of Judge Fpaphroditus Peck, as follows: At- torneys Frederick W. Beach, Joseph ¥. Dutton, Robert J. Stack, Joseph P. O'Connell, Anthony J. Rich and Howard T. Mather; Willard E. Hough, Stephen M. Wells, Charles L. Wooding, J. Ernest Andrews, Rene Talllon, Elof Carlson, Joseph L. McDonald, William L. Caffer John C.

Justices of the peace decide civil matters in this city at present and it is the aim of practitioners to secure a city court. The corporation counsel asserted that Judge S. Rus- sell Mink of the court of probate was interested in the inception of a city court in Bristol. The council veted to appropriate $250 for Clty Engineer Carlton W. Bucll to bound 24 new streets.

Mayor Crumb fiscal year terminates on- November 30, tRe mayor-elect should take the oath of office on that day instead of a month later, as is provided in the current charter. Belridge Sewers Tabled The Belridge road sewer ingtalla- tion project was tabled by the coan- cil at its meeting last night for an indefinite period of time. It is prob- able that the matter will net be taken up again by the body until next spring. Judge Roger 8. Newell, who owns - | a large tract of land on the road, voiced himself as oppoeed 40 the proposal, saying that’' he didn't “think the time was ripe.” It was his contention that only one house would be accommodated if the sew- ers were installed, He said that laying of the system at this time would be premature. Councilman Thomas A. Tracy of the sewer committee stated that there was no hurry and thought the matter should be deferred. Threo property owners on the road, Wil- tiam Sheeran, Henry Tetraylt and Harry O. Herold, were in faver of the installation. School Board Has Money A joint board meeting of the council and board of education was held. adjourning until the second Tuesday of February.

Acting on a “tip,” Dog Warden Ryan yesterday visited the home of a family named Bechard in Terrys ville, barely across the Bristol town line on Fall mountain, and located the missing canine. According to the warden, the dog had beerl left to board at the Bechard residence by a Hartford person, whose arrest by police was expected today. The* thief is known to the warden only as “Chick.” Rracken accompanied the wardea to the Bechard place last evening und procured his pet. It was re- - marked by the warden that becaugs of the quarantine the dog would be forced to remain in Bristel for 21 days longer it it ventured only & few feet into this city.
