The criminal docket OF old and new
cases vas called Tuesday morning. The
continuance of many old liquor cases on
the docket was the occasion for somew hat
sharp comment by Justice Cornish on the
practice Of accepting straw bail in these
cases, OF not proceeding against the
sureties for the collection of bail in de-
faulted cases. and Of accepting OF one rum
seller as bondsman for another.
Among the old cases disposed OF was
that against Stanley Harrison. the fifteen
year-old boy who was indicted at the
October term for assault with a dangerous
weapon. Last October he was committed
~ int Ehst Mhlut uosplNdl IUt
observation as to his sanity. He was pro-
nounced sane. The boy apparently has an
ungovernable temper, and is OF highly
nervous temperament. The case presented
a curious problem, and the only solution
seemed to be his sentence to the reform
school. This sentence was imposed by
the court.
The trial OF criminal cases began yester-
day afternoon, " hen the case OF William
and ID. Leroy Hutchinson on the joint in
dictment for breaking, entering and
larceny was taken up. County Attorney
Mason for the State; ID. K. Hurley for re-
spondents. The respondents we're
charged with having stolen large guam
tity OF groceries, clothing and miscel-
laneous articles from the store OF Gray
Bros, at South Penobscot, and which
were found in a house occupied by them
at Vinalhaven. The case for the State
was in when court adjourned yesterday
afternoon, taking recess over to-day, a
legal holiday.
