TO SET
VERDICT
ASIDE.
ConIey Petitions Supreme Court.
Claims His Conviction Was
Improper.

BENJAMIN r. conley's appeal from the
verdict of jury in the common pleas d.
vision OF the supreme court of Kent
county finding him guilty OF the illegal
sale of intoxicating liquor was heard by
Chief Justice srness and Justices Till
inghast and Douglas today.
This "a. one of the anti.saloon league
cases and the complainant Is Merrill 3.
Louks. one time sergeant of police in
Central Falls Frank Rabineau went with
Louks as witness and the liquor Is al
legged TO have been sold TO Rabineau. The
defendant does not deny the sale, but
claims II was Justified by license from
the town council OF Warwick.
The building in which was located the
saloon where the sale took place set
about 25 feet back from the highway, and
ran back about 80 feet The saloon was in
the basement at the rear of the build
ing and the only entrance thereto so far
as appeared by the testimony, was
through the back OF tha building, that
is, the side farthest from the highway. a
highway ran along in front of the build
ing. but there was no public Travelled way
along the other three sides of the build
ing. There was no conflict OF testimony
upon any material fact.
The presiding justice In the common
pleas division ruled that such an entrance
TO the saloon was one "other than d.
rectly from a public travelled way and
that the allowing such an entrance TO ez-
ist after the license had been granted
was violation OF Sec. 8 OF Chap. 102 OF
the General Laws OF Rhode Island and
rendered the license thereby void. He
charged the jury that II they believed
the testimony OF the witnesses as TO the
sale and the location OF the entrance TO
the saloon. they must find the defendant
guilty.
new trial Is asked because the de-
fendant did not have a full, free and i'm
partial trial, because OF error I'm presid-
ing Justices rulings and because the
verdict is against the evidence.
