 Cases Disposed Of.

The superior court, criminal side,
 opened here to-day. Judge George W.
 Wheeler of Bridgeport presided and prayer was offered by the Rev Dr Buck
 ley. For the first time in some years
 the dock was full, and the clean,
 bright and Intelligent. though rather
 sad looking face of Thomas Mooney,
 charged with the murder of James
 Dunn, bartender, was conspicuous. All
 Jail prisoners were here except Joseph Cenesky and Edward Leonard charged with the murder of Thomas Lockwood and Fred w. Preston charged with conspiracy in connection with the above crime. Assistant States Attor- ney Kellogg notified the court that he would have the grand jury convened
 tomorrow to sit on these cases. The
 business of the term consists of the following: Philip Kline 22, Woodbury,
 horse stealing; James Commerford IT, theft of two gold watches valued at $60, the property of Thomas O'Donnell; Mike Grigas, theft of $95; 7dward Brush, statutory burglary by breaking into James Barry's house on Hickory street and stealing two silver watches valued at S15; Michael Dillon. attempt ed burglary of Frank J. McKeons sa- loon on South Main street: Henry Me Clure and Frank Cassidy. theft of S200 from Gus Anderson; Albert Noether, burglary of Walter B. Goodwin's store on West Main street. last week; Frank Judson, theft of a horse valued at $200 from Elmer Lewis of Southbury; David Lovalla; theft, third offense; Morris Dobkin, theft; William Slade and Nan Carter. adultery: Henry Galpin, bur glary; and Thomas Mooney for the murder of James Dunn. Moneys case is set down for hearing to-mor- row. The court denied motion to continue the case of Galpin to the fall term.
 All the accused pleaded not guilty. but the following reconsidered and were sentenced in this order
 Philip Kline, not more than four. nor less than two years in the state prison: James Commerford. three months in jail. his age r. saved him: he was severely warned by the court; Mike Grigas. one year in jail: Edward Brush. one to two years and Albert two to four years in the state prison. Noether's record was very much against him. The case against Frank Cassidy was nolled but his Henry Mcclure. got a his counsel. Attorney Kennedy. plead ed hard for him. was sentenced to one year in jail.
 Frank Judson. Southbury. one to two years in the state prison. Mrs Jose phine Lewis. testified that Judson was by her husband on their farm for SlOO a year and his board. He left with some money due him. but he had an account against him which left some s34 to his credit The court in passing sentence said that if the I.ewises had treated Judson properly be would not have stolen their horse. and that it was reasonably certain they owed him something for his years work. He took this into consideration In passing sentence.
 The case against Nan Carter and William SIade was continued to the next term as the principal witness. the alleged husband has left town md upon his evidence the state de pended to prove the alleged marriage The jury was then etnpaneiled on the .ase of Michael Dillon
 Judge Wheeler has exempted Robert k. Brown from jury duty. Clerk Marsh was ordered to notify Clerk of New Haven of the fact.
