Officer James Sullivan testified that he saw Laskowski on Broad street about 1:35 a. m. February IS and asked him his reason for being on the street at that hour. Laskowski told him lie had taken an intoxicated man to the latter's home at 31a Broad street but the officer learned that the answer was untrue. Suspecting that the young man was implicated in some sort of escapade the officer traced foot steps in the snow to skingor's store.
 Loot Found on Youth The store door was open and when the officer searched Lasko- ski he found cartons of cigarettes. In the yard were other cigarettes and cigars. Even in the face ol these facts.

They were frightened away at the approach of a police man but returiied at l a. m.
 I.askowski. according to Sergeant UMara. told him he would plead guilty if he felt certain of being sent back to Cheshire reformatory in- stead of being held for superior court.
