 0N SEVEN COUNTS
Judge MeSkin Fines Jacob Bayer
 S15 and Costs on Three
A. p. MARSH
Successors to A. P. Marsh.

Seven different counts in violation of the automobile law were charged against Jacob Bayer in police court this morning and he pleaded guilty to each. He was fined on three counts and judgment was suspended on the other counts" by Judge MeSklll. Baver is the autom obilst who was arrested Thursday night and ordered to appear in court yesterday but ne- elected to do so. He was subsequent ly re-arrested yesterday morning for the same offense for which he was arrested the prev SDus night.
 The charges against Bayer were that on January 27 he was guilty of driving his automobile without mark CTS, without lights, without an opera tors license and without registration license. On January 28 he was charged with three additional counts, those of driving his car without markers without operators license and without registration. He was represented by Lawyer Morris D. Saxe. Lawyer Sake said that his client did not mean to show any dis respect for the law but his actions were the result of ignorance of the law. He also declared that it is al- most unprecedented to bring in a first offender and charge him with seven different counts. He thought one count would be sufficient
 A representative from the office of the secretary of state was present to testify that it was not until 2 o'clock yeserday afternoon that Bayer went to Hartford to license his machine.
 Judge Meskill imposed a fine of $5 and costs on the first count of the first charge and $5 and costs on the second count. On the first count of the second charge he imopsed a fine of $5 and ocsts and suspended sen tence on the other counts.
 Another Motorist Fined.
 Joseph Crizante, motorcycles, was fined $5 and costs on each of two counts charging him with driving an unregistered motor vehicle and driving without license. C;izante pleaded guilty to both counts. Prose cutor Klett explained to the court that the accused had been operating a motor vehicle for three years and yes terday purchased a, new motorcycle which he attempted to ride without having it registered and without an operators license.

proceedings necessitated by the ab- sence of states witnesses which Judge Meskill criticised from the bench yes terday reocurred today when the ca& against Rudolph Feutl, had to be held up for a short time owing to the ap- sence of City Clerk A. l.. Thompson. Feutl is the owner of a five tenement block at 100 Beaver street and Dr. T. F. Reeks, superintendent of the board of health, complained that four of the toilets are not properly venti- lated and three are not properly lighted He said he sent Feutl four different notices but he paid no at1 tention to them.
 City Clerk Thompson testified that at present Feutl is the owner of the property in question. Feutl pur- chased it first on March 12, 1915. He sold it to Paul Welinsky on June I and on October he repurchassd @t from Albert Ha1pin to whom it had been sold. Through Lawyer Saxe. Feutl explained that he received tho first notices to repair his toilets and three days later sold the property, consequently he did not have the re- pairs made. Three days after he repurchased the property in October it was foreclosed against by the bank. Since that time he denied receiving any notice. It was the opinion of the court that Feutl had had reason- able time to effect the repairs had he been so disposed. and the judge imposed a fine of s7 without costs with the understanding that the need- ed repairs be made at once.
