Telling the court that he violated
the search and seizure laws because
he was out of work and needed mon.
ey to care for his family of little chill
dren, Martin Kraly, aged about 81.

formation preferred against him in
the county court today. Kraly was
sentenced to spend thirty days in the
county jail by the jurist
The sentence was made lighter than
the usual term imposed for viola
tion Of the prohibition laws by Judge
Reck, because Kraly is the father of
nine little children
kraly's violation is alleged to have
taken place on January /. when Chief
of Police Hopkins of Streator raided
his home and seized stock of
liquors. Kraly was indicted by the
January grand ury.
He furnished bail and has since
been at large on bonds. Several
months ago Judge Eldredge in the
circuit court certified the case to the
