 Charged with obtaining money un- der false pretenses by the issuance of fraudulent check, Abraham ]. Eevseen of New York City, who was only this morning released from the Hartford county jail after serving a 90-day sentence, was returned to that institution for 30 days by Judge Joseph M. Donovan in police court today.
 Revseen, after passing several worthless checks in Hartford, came 10 Bristol, where he visited Nelson s Music store on Main street and, after making a small purchase, rendered a check for $50 made out 10 him by the Plymouth Mems store Of 135 Stuart street, Boston, and signed by Samuel c. Greenberg Revseen endorsed the check and nothing further was thought of the matter until the check came back to the music store with the informa- tion that there was no such concern in Boston. In the meantime Rev seen had returned to Hartford
 where he was arrested and subse- quently sent to jail.
 The check which was presented tc the local store had the name of the Plymouth Mems store printed on its face, and it was this fact which in duced Mr. Nelson to honor it. Later ; it developed that Revseen was 8 printer by trade, and the local police , are inclined to believe that he had printed the checks himself. Cars Collide
