MURDERER'S WIFE
 IS SENT ID JAIL
Mrs. Vera Fraiter Arrested When
 Vice Squad Makes Raid

Mrs. Vera Fraiter, wife of Emil from six to ten years at Wethersfield for the murder of Julius Grusha, was sentenced to thirty days in jail by Judge James T. Meskill in police court this morning on a charge of improper conduct. James Boulonoff, who was arrested with Mrs. F'raiter, was also sentenced to a month in jail Prosecutor Klett told the court he would have preferred a more serious charge aggainst the couple, only it would necessitate bringing Fraiter from prison to testify and such procedure would entail considerabl technicalities.
 It will be remembered that early last fall Fraiter, who had been es- tranged from his wife, went to Cru sha's house at 32 Booth street and threatened to shoot his wife. Cru scha interferred and in the struggle for possession of the revolver was shot and killed Fraiter pleaded guilty to second degree murder and was sentenced to from six to ten years in prison.
 Immediately after the murder Mrs. Fraiter went to live with the widow of the murdered man in the same tenement where the murder took place. About three months ago the rOlice became suspicious of the kind of a resort the two widOws' were keeping and the place was under all most constant surveillance since then but no arrests were made IS the police desired to have evidenCn enough to convict both women. Last night however, Sergeant George Kelly, with Officers Hayes and Moi fit as a vice squad, decided to raid the place and burst in through a window. Mrs Grusha was enter taining a male guest in the kitchen but their conduct was proper and they were not arrested.
 Fined For Stealing Wheel.
 Thomas Burke, a youth living at 51 Laurel street, was fined SIC and costs for stealing a bicycle belonging to Walter Fisk. Detective Sergeant Samuel Bamforth made the arrest on the complaint of Fisk and Henry KoWalski who had recognized the bicycle on the street and followed Burke to his home. The wheel was stolen from the corner of Main and East Main streets on April 27 When the police went to Burke's home he had the mud guards and saddle re- moved from the bicycle and a new saddle substituted. Burke told a far fetched story of how he came into possession of the wheel. He said that "a month and a week ago" at 9 o'clock at night he met a strange boy near the Catholic cemetery. The boy had a bicycle and thinking he might have stolen it Burke asked him where he got it. He finally bought it himself for $3, he said. lie said he had changed the saddle be- cause it was too high for his small brother. this regardless of the fact that the saddle could be regulated Prosecutor Klett branded the youth S attempted explanation as lie and
