 1 Eastern Connecticut prohibition offi-
 cers have been busy during the past few I days and have visited four places where | 1t was believed that intoxicants were 1 being made or sold. Three places vis- | tied in Colchester were those of Morris 1 Neid]e, Joseph Fredus and Morris Sti- vus. The fourth place was Main street grocery store. Nothing was found at any of the places but it is 1 believed that the woman in the store
 was too quick for the officers and that she succeeded in enptying intoSi- eating liquor down the sink at the rear l of the store just as the officers entered ! the door.
 The eentinned case Of Leon Russell, i 20 charged with forgery of a check for l s2G payable to Mrs. Mary A. Turner l on the order of F. r. Casey, came up in l the police court Monday morning and was continued until this (Tuesday) morning when man named Wallace. l said by Russell to have forged the l check, will appear. before the court. 1 In court Monday. Eddie John, who csshed the check. identified it as the l one in question. Mir. Casey was not l planning to appear in court as MT. John 1 had made good for the amount of the | check, but .he court decided to press the 1 charge. so Mir. Casey appeared and al l so identified the check. The check had been taken from his checkbook but he ] did not know when it was stolen. Rus 1 sell had worked for him at times l 1 in the army and testified that Wallace had often told of cracking safes, and | said he would open the safe at Casey s 1 store and get some money. September l 1Tth he came to Russell with check l and told him to cash it. Russell went l to Eddie John and got some groceries 1 and took about half the sum back in i change giving it to Wallace. Both then 1 enjoyed a fine feed on the groceries | purchased. At this point Russell sprang l a surprise on the court by stating that 1 Wallace was in the employ of MT. Ca 1 sey at present. It had been previously i said that Wallace was not in the city, l At this point the signature on the check 1 with all writing was compared with 1 Russelfs handwriting and all looked
 somewhat alike. Russell denied hav- 1 ing forged the check. however. He dis i closed that Wallace had several names, 1 one being Frank Williams. The court ! then learned that under. this name Wal 1 lace, or Williams, had been given a year ] in jail 5y the Windham county super 1 for court. in October 1920 for theft of 1 an automobile in this city. A compan- l ion. Arthur Rainville, was also seu- ] tenced at that time. Williams served his 1 time, getting off early for good behav- | for and had been in this city for some 1 time. Because of the possibility that ! Russell may have been influenced in writing the check bys Williams the ease was continued Wallace or Williams | has visited the police and his writing did not compare with that on the forged check. This was testified to by Chief Iiillourey who saw Wallace write the words at his request.
