SUBDUED With CLUB
Prisoner Puts Up Furious
Fight and Kicks One
Captor

Supernumerary Officer Charles
Ralneault was kicked in the abdo-
men by Joseph GloWacki, aged IS,
of rs Beaver street, shortly after
O'Clock last night. and while an
examination by DR.. John Purney
did not disclose any injuries, there
is possibility that he may be hurt
internally and he will be examined
again tonight Glowacki. who was
arrested by Officer Rainault and Of
ticer Daniel Cosgrove, who found
him intoxicated on the steps of his
home after Mrs. Glovacki had COM
planned to Officer Cosgrove that she
had been assaulted by her husband,
gave the policemen a stiff battle
from his home to the police box on
Broad street, according to their tes-
t'mony in police court today, and
Officer Raineault. after being kick
ed, used his club on Glowacki. The
language Glowacki used was de-
scribed by Officer Cosgrove as ter
rlble" and the scuffle on the way to
the police box was so rough that
Judge NJ. D. SAKE inquired of Off
Ger Cosgrove whether or not the
charge of resistance had been pre-
ferred. Officer Cosgrove replied
negatively and Assistant Prosecuting
Attorney Greenstein remarked that
probably the charge should have
been made.
Glowacki, besides being charged
Al l.. NJ,
peace, was accused of refusing and
ncglecting to support his wife and
two children, aged 13 and II years.
His wife testified that he does not
work steadily and frequently he
contributes not more than SO or IS
towards the household expenses.
She works every day in a factory
and supports him and the children.
while he drinks every time he can
get anything to drink. She told
Judge SAKE she does not want to live
with her husband. as she Is dis
gusted with his laziness and does
not propose to tolerate his abuse any
longer.
Last evening on her return from
work, she went to a store to pur-
chase food for the evening meal and
her husband followed her, scratch
ing her face and pulling hair out of
her head. She displayed the hair
and the scratch was visible She
sought out Officer Cosgrove at
Broad and Washington streets and
lodged her complaint
GloWacki admitted that he was
intoxicated but claimed not to have
any knowledge whatever of the
breach OF the peace count. He
doubted that he had kicked Officer
Raineault and he denied that he is
heavy drinker. His wifes accu-
satlon of assault was also untrue, he
claimed. He felt it proper for her to
work in factory because the chill
dren are able TO look after them
selves and 'it is better for her to
work than be going around to
houses looking for booze"
Judge SAKE imposed a fine Of SIS
and costs for drunkenness and
breach of the peace, and ordered
GloWachi to post a $500 bond to
guarantee payment of SIS a week
to his wife and family. with a 30
day jail sentence in default of the
bond.
