was sold to a Berlin man at a small charge.
 MT. Preston testified as to conditions at Hurley's stable. There was no food in the building but several dozens of whiskey bottles. indicating what the cause of the neglect might be. The accused admitted in a conversa- ton with the witness that he had been away from the horses for three days, having gone to Springfield to visit relatives.
 Hurley attributed his court record to excessive drinking. Having been on a spree last May, he felt that he should leave the city for few days to straighten out. Before making that decision he went through $700, he told the court, part O. which was spent Tor urInk and pi,- was stolen. Real izing that the anlI..-.s should be cared Tor Tn his absence, Hurley went to Curtin $ saloon where, according to his spent his money and where he was robbed, and made arrangements with the bartender To have the horses fed during his absence. To assure the horses or feed he made similar ar rangement with Louis Comonica and man at the Cutler junk-shop.
 Prosecutor George w. Klett asked the accused why he left the city. He replied that he had intended to re- turn but had been connned to a hos pital in Springfield for more than five weeks while he was on the verge or dellrium tremens. When he was dis charged he summed up the situation in his own mind and felt it inadvis;t- ble to return home since the police had taken his horse, one Jew his wagons and another Jew his harness
 Hurley asked for an opportunity to pay after turning another horse and 60 bushels of potatoes into cash. When refused he expressed deep re- grets since he would probably have to face charges of negiecting the horse us soon as released on this charge, he explained.

The accused figur- ed in an accident yesterday at the in- tersection of Washington and West Main streets. When Traffic Supervisor Clarence lamphere. turned the truck over to Elmer Sabel to drive into a garage, it was found to have no brakes working.
 On d similar charge Lewis Brasso was arrested yesterday afternoon on Hartford avenue when his three ton truck proved deficient in that respect. The owner proved to the courts sat- isfaction that he had taken steps to have the brakes repaired and was reasonably certain that they would operate when the car was taken out. He was ordered to pay court costs.
 Saul Dubowy and Paul Bada vera assessed s2 without costs each for allowing their cars to stand for more than 40 minutes in a restricted part i, of Main street. l
 Prosecutor Klett recommended q | fine of saswithout costs on Robert Smyrk for breach of the peace al- legged to have been committed last June. The accused left the city be- fore he could be placed under arrest epd did not return until yesterday. i;
