PATROLMAH SETTLES
ARGUMENT In STORE

Pstrolman Calvin played the part of
a peaeemaker yesterday when he enter
ed into an argument in Louis Perel-
mems store, at 322 State street over
the worth of two checks. A. f. Al
chin, of 81 Smith street, had purchased
a watch rendering in payment two
checks signed by Mr.. Perelman, and
which the latter had previously given
to H. Kline. Kline could not cash the
checks at the bank because Perelman
had stopped payment on them.
Kline, it is said, sold the checks to
Alchin, who in turn wanted Perelman
to redeem his own checks as part pay
ment on a watch. That is what started
the dispute.
Patrolman Calvin advised Alchin to
take the checks back to Kline and ask
for his money back. After some par
ley Alchin gave the watch back to
Perelman, took the checks and left the
store.
