Wednesday afternoon, after having been two days In session. At eight minutes to three it was re- ported to State’s Attorney Hull that they were ready to report, and upon his informing the court, the petit jury, which had been assembled to start the trial of a case, was excused until their report had been heard. They were es- corted in by Deputy Sheriff Casey, and through Foreman Thomas M. Shields presented their report, which was a true bill for murder in the first degree against Michael Ridisz and John Ju- rasz, who it is claimed killed Katle Yurkegicz in Lyme and threw her body into a swamp Lole wtere it,was found.

When the superior court opened on Wednesday morning State's Attorney Hull presented Mrs. Addie Burns of New London, stating that she had been arrested on a bench warrant, and asked that she be put to plea. ‘She was presented on the charge of statutory rape in alding and enticing to New London from New Haven May Burns, aged 15, and keeping her in her house of ill repute for immoral pur- poses. She pleaded not guilty. The sum of $20,00¢ was urged by the state’s attorney as the bail, speaking of the terrible crime and the fact that it was hardly thought possible to exist in this state. For rape, Judge Wheel- er fixed the bonds at $5,000 and for using the girl for immoral purposes $2,000. The judge stated that the pen- alty might be thirty years in prison. The arrest of the Burns woman, who at one time was In the bagnio business in Norwich, was told of in Wednesday's Bulletin. Bail was furnished by G. H. Platt and she was released in the aft- ernoon. Pleas of Guilty and Sentences. This case and the general interest in the court business filled the court room with spectators, who, with the large number of witnesses summoned, oc- cupied about all the available space in the large ‘court room during the‘ most of the day. James Brown, George Green and Ed- ward Thompson, who on Tuesday pleaded guilty to theft froyg the person in Preston, were presenigd and Attor- ney Gardner spoke for them. All three told the court that théy had been ar- rested for Intoxication. ,Thomas Bald- win of Norwich Town, who was rob- bed, told of being on his way to Hall- ville to look for werk, when he was held up and robbed. ¢ All three were sent to state prison for one and not more than three years. Charged with assault upon the per- son of Hattie F. Hoy in New London, Sept. 11, George Fontanata, aged 19, pleaded guilty and was gilven six months in jail. County Probation Officer Mansfield spoke for him, as did the state's attor- ney. who said there were extenuating cirsumstances in the case. Pleading guilty to shooting James Neeson with a pistol in New London, December 1, Patrick Curran, aged 39, was given a year in jail. Attorney Smith spoke for him, saying that he was all right until his wife died and his daughter went wrong, when he took to drink, and was under the in- fluence of liquor when the affair occur- ed, and he remembers nothing of it. Neeson received only a slight wound. MURDER N THE FIRST DEGREE Grand Jury Finds True Bill Against Lyme Men for Kill- ing Woman--Norwich Town Man Sent to State Prison --Pleas of Guilty and Sentences. E Entered Norwich Facfbry. On the charge of breaking into Tur- ner & Stanton’s factory in this ecity Sefiumb'ar 5, James Minnehan pleaded guilty. He is 24 years old and has been to jail three times, The good: taken amounted to $24. Attorney Douglass spoke for him. He was giv- en a year in jail. 5 After pleading guilty to breaking in- to the house of J. S. Pendleton in Groton and stealing tableware valued at $43, Charles Adams of New Haven was given not less nor more than five years in state prison. Having broken into the house of H. A, Lamphere in Groton December 1 and stolen a watch, Albert Stokes pleaded guilty and was given eight months in jail, Reicco Tacci for assault with in- tent to kill and murder was given ten months in jail. He pleaded guilty en Tuesday. Elmer Chapman of Ledyard plead- ed not guilty to the theft of a pocket- book from Laura H, Main in Ledyard October 23. At the afternoon session Daniel Kelleher and Cornelius Coughlin pleaded guilty to breaKing into J. E. Moore's market November 24. Attorney Desmond spoke for them and Kelleher was given six months and Coughlin a year in jail. Sentence was deferred in the case against John W, Forbes, charged with stealing a power boat valued at $400 in New London December 2, after he had pleaded guilty. . Joseph DelCarlo pleaded guilty to an assault, In his behalf, Attorney Barnes said DelCarlo had been here flve years and is a hard working young man. It was a rumpus at Masons island and as he turned around the poyket knife entered the eye of a friend. Del Car- jos had been struck in the neck. State’s Attorney Hull said the man’s record was good. The men had had trouble and there might have been a thought to self-defense. He recom- mended a substantial jail sentence. Judge Wheeler gentenced him to jail for four months and fined him $50 and costs, Mehrholz Sent to State Prison. A jury was then about to be se- lected for the trial of the casagof state vs. August Mehrholz, charged with in- cest in Norwich last October. After a conference between the counse! it was agreed that the second count would be withdrawn upon a plea of guilty to the first count. Mehrholz was put to plea and pleaded gullty to the first count. Attorney Frank Gardner claimed it was his first arrest of any kind. He has been in this country 33 years and is of a low order of intellect. State’s Attorney Hull sald that the family was of a low order of intellect, the daughters probably form the act of the father. He was given not less than one nor more than five years in state prison. Shortly after four o'clock Judge Wheeler excused the petit jury for the day and it is expected that the trial of cases will start this morning, two attempts having been made on Wed- nesday to start trials but they result- ed in pleas of guilty. Court was adjourned at 4.20 o'clock until this morning at ten o’clock. There has been placed in the jury room with the compliments of Sheriff Brown a largé combination tobacco can and pipe rack, filled with both. The corncobs are arranged around the can in neat style, the idea of the combination holder being that of Mes- | senger Tilly. The jurymen are much ! pleased with the equipment. IN THE CITY COURT.

He was arrested by Policemen Hen- derson and Perry. Charged with breach of the peace in having gone into a North Main street home and choked a woman Paul Pestler was fined $5 and costs.
