$1,000 Bail on Charge
Boys Give Testimony.
DIDN'T UNDERSTAND LAW
Police Determined TO Break
Up Practice Recorder Will
Hold All Offenders.

Recorder Pickersgill demonstrated
last night that he had no use for
people who disregard the law by SELL
ing firearms to minors. He placed
Samuel Fishkin, a dealer of 157 Il
Smith street, under bonds in the
amount of 1000 to await the action

boys. Detective Sergeant Long made
the arrest and produced the lads who
said they had purchased revolvers
from Fishkin. The dealer admitted
he had sold them, but claimed ignor-
ance of the law. He was held under
bail in the amount of $500 on each
charge. In default of furnishing the
same he was locked up until nearly
midnight, when Counsel Jacob NJ.
Klein arranged to have Jacob Green
span sign the bail bond.
During the past several months
the police have been trying to break
up the use of revolvers, blank cart
ridge pistols and air rifles among
boys in various parts of the city.
They have confiscated q number of
weapons and are determined to get
at the root of the evil. AS the result
of an investigation by the detectives
Fishkin was arrested. He had sold
a revolver to Edgar Lear for 1915
and a thirty-two calibre hammerless
revolver to Paul Petrolle several
days ago.
The weapons and cartridges OBJ
tanned from Fishkin's store were
produced In court. In passing SEN
tence Recorder Pickersgill said he
had no use for people who used re-
volvers unlawfully, nor for dealers
who would sell them to minors. I'm

demeanor to sell firearms and even
toy pistols to persons under twenty
one years of age. They may be pur-
chased by youths between the ages
