rIriden, April 21-It was Easter in the Bronx Billiard parlor, corner of Pratt and Center street. Cards were being stuffed and the dice were silently tumbling over the green baize. Proceedings were interrupted by the arrival of a squad of state policemen, who were making their second visit to the place within a month.
 And when the 46 men arrested were booked at police headquarters, the name of New Britain rolled off their tongues with monotonous reg ularity. It seemed as if the young bloods of the Hardware City had moved en masse to this place for the purpose of wooing the ficklc goddess of chance. Of the 46, 19 claimed residence in New Britain. It is believed that many gave fictitious names and addresses. The New Britain roll call was as follows:
 John Martin, 10S High street; Michael Balarino, 250 Chestnut street; Joseph Greenberg. eS West street; Frank O'Neil, 425 Arch street; Frank kaczmcr, 96 Gold street; Frank Kelly, S7 Park street James Brown, 35 Walnut street; James Cosgrove, 104 Main street; John Murphy, 1l0 Center street; Joseph Jinski, 2S5 Park street, John Olsen, 9S Broad street; John Tino. 100 Arch street; C. J. Jones, 9 Maple street; Charles Tcitz, 624 Main street; Anthony Barons, a25 Fairview street; Clarence Martin, 321 Main street: James Wells, 65 Brooklawn street; John Stalk, Com monwealth avenue; and Stanley Lu- cak. 101 Broad street.
 A lcgless patron, giving the name of Erwin J. Gaffncy, was sent to the Meriden hospital for trcatme ent for a cut on the side of the head in ficted by a state trooper, it is said.
 James Galliete, A, of Southing- ton, claimed ownership of the place and posted s100 bonds for his re- lease. He also posted SIPS bonds for the frequenters at the rate of S25 each. A few of those inside managed to escape when they told the raidins party they were not ire quenters but neWspapermen who had followed them into the joint.
 In court today. Galliete, alleged owner of the establishments was fined s100 and costs. Each fre- Quenter was fined s15.
