Arthur Redmond, aged 29, colored, Who claims that he was born and faised in Coatesville, Pa.,'' was bound over to the September term of the superior court this morning under bonss of $500 by Judge George G. Griswold in the town court on the charge of pickpocketing. It is al- legged that Redmond rified the pockets of Frank B. Shanley of Southington yesterday while the latter was sleep ing in a chair on the porch of the Globe cafe in Kensington, and stole s.S2, in cash, a watch valued at $15 and fountain pen.
 Shanley testified that he came to Berlin Tuesday to celebrate his thirty first birthday. He said that he had -~a. flew drinks and feeling drowsy, de-
 tded to take a doze in one of the ,< sairs on the porch of the Globe cafe.
 While nodding away, he claimed, he suddenly felt a tug in his hip pocket and jumping to his feet saw Red- , mond retreat from him, endeavoring to hide his identity by covering his face with his hands. He realized that something was wrong and upon 1nves- tigation learned that his money and
 other articles about his person were missing. He notified Prosecutor Will lf&an H. Gibney and Sheriff James Clark of his loss and an investigation
 was started. When the officers ap-
 preached the Globe cafe, Shanley en- , tered first and walking over to Red mond, accused the latter of having stolen his money. Redmond em- phatically denied the accusation and 'en Shanley told him that two men outside wanted to speak with him he Golted out of the rear entrance of the cafe but was captured by Prose- cutor Gibney and Sheriff Clark, who wore waiting for him.
 Tn his own defense, Redmond pro- tasted he was innocent His testi- mony was conflicting throughout. He claimed that the fountain pen found Y, his possession was purchased by him for f1fty-five cents at the fair grounds but several minutes later he entangled himself by saying that he bought it at Norwich.
