Charlie Burton was arrested and
charged with being drunk and dis
orderly Monday night. He was tried
before Police Judge Otto G. Martin
yesterday morning. After hearing
the evidence the Judge assessed a
fine of 500 and fifty days in jail
In default of payment of fine, the
defendant was sent to jail. The
work clause was attached and IL the
fine is not paid or replevied it will
have to be worked out on the streets
of Hartford at 81 per day.
A few such fines as this will soon
break up this drinking and carous-
ing on the streets of nights. If
Judge Martin is given the moral
support of the citizens of Hartford
he will certainly soon stop this bus
mess.

THE EQUITY P00LERS
ARE GIVEN LIBERTY
As Result of Dissatisfaction At
WhitesviIIe And Meet
ing There.

The Greensboro Messenger of Sun
day says:
The poolers in the American So
ciety OF Equity have been turned
loose. In other words they have
been given the privilege of dispos-
ing of their tobacco in any manner
that they may choose. This action
was the result of a meeting held by
the Equity poolers at Whitesville on
Saturday afternoon. There were
about fifty poolers i'll attendance and
the meeting was presided over by j.
w. Dunn.
The Equity pool at Whitesville
was purchased by G. G. Massie. and
it was estimated that it would
amount to about 100000 pounds.
After the deliveries started it de-
veloped that many of the poolers
were delivering their best grade OF
tobacco to the loose leaf floors in
Greensboro and asking the Whites
willie buyers to take their monde
script grade. Mr.. Massie, about ten
days ago, closed his houses, saying
that the Equity poolers had broken
their contract. Efforts to have the
houses reopened proved futile.
| 1t Is estimated that about 100000
pounds of tobacco was delivered al
Whitesville, and already nearly
100000 pounds of the Equity pool
has passed over the loose leaf floors
There remains about half million
pounds unsold, which has been
| turned loose.
