Bound Over w Fourth Offender
 A6liast Dry Laws

Charles Grahowski. :7, or Sos High street. charged with trans- sorting lid\lor by means of . motor vehicle, was bound over to the Sep tember term of superior court m S1,5oe bonds by Judge Stanley J. Tracsski in police court today. Ac- cording to the police court records he is . fourth offender against the liquor laws.
 The arrest was made in Middle town last Friday on information furnished by Officer John M. Lieb- Ter of the local department. Charles having left this city after his brother, William Grabovski. had been taken by Officer Daniel Co.'S grove in . fierce fight in Meehan's Monumental Works yard at Clerk and Union streets Thursday after noon.
 Attorney B. J. Monkiewicz. who appeared for Charles. said he had not intended to bring out . defense by cross examining the states witt nesses, but as to the bond. which Prosecuting Attorney Woods wanted set at 5000, he felt it should be less and he hoped to raise it and also make an application to the court for . reduction in the t3.000 bond placed on William. in order that he may not be obliged to re- main in jail until his trial takes place in superior court in Septem- Der.
 Judge Traceski. fixing the S1.5oo bond, remarked that the case of Charles was somewhat different from that of William and for that reason he was inclined to make the bonds in this case lower than those in the case of William.
