swfliams's jaw dropped. lie would
have been satisfied with the first sen
tence. and even when Judge Osborne sus-
Ependel sentence on him ON n third charge
Of breaking and entering he did not cheer
up. 1t was the first time since the new
in~determinate sentence act went into
effect last fall that a Judge in Essex
county ind made sentences run consec-
utively instead of concurrently.
An explanation may be needed here:
A man can be sentenced on two or ten
or any number of indictments for five
years. for instance. and again, for in
| stance. IL the sentencing Judge says
tnPSp StllltlftS nal u Ntii'hii fhAANf
| that means tina when the man has fin
| ished his sentence ON the one indictment
on which he wa sentenced he is free.
But II he Is sentenced on two, or ten,
or INV number of indictments for live
years and the judge ordains that they
are to run consecutiyely that means that
the prisoner will have 10 serve his al
iotted time on each sentence. In VIII
iams's case 1t means he will have 20.
serve at least seven years instead of three
and n half years.
| Antonio Montevcrdo. found guilty of
maintaining a disorderly house in a
restaurant in Market street, was given
n sentence of one year in the county
penitentiary. William !. Convey, con
yicted of assault. was given eighteen
months in the same place. as was Albert
I. Ohme, convicted OF receiving stolen
property, and Floyd West on n charge
of assault and battery.
William Goulka and Stanislaw Janoski
did not get OFF luckily. Goulka. who was
said by Judge Osborne to be an old of
fender, went to Trenton for a term of
seven years, while Janoski got n two to
seven year ter min the same place. These
two men were charged with robbtng n
number of persons In the "Hill district"
by the use of knockout drops" choral
being the means used. Martin Kulesza,
a member of the gang, who admitted Civ
ing away choral, but who had not been
connected with the robberies, got
