JUNK DEALER FINED
 BOUGHT BOYS LOOT
Purchased Wire Stolen From
 Stanley Works by Youths

David Shindle, 3S. of 45 Willow street, was fined s75 and costs by Judge M. D. Sake in police court to- day on charges of receiving stolen goods and purchasing junk from minors, and a fine of s20 and costs each was imposed on Julius Luziettl. o1, of 61 Belmont street and Stanley Chachulski. 16, of 945 Clinton street for theft of So5 worth of copper wire from the Stanley Works. Shin dle bought the wire from the young men.
 Sergeant T. J. Feeney testified that his investigation disclosed that Cha chulski stole the wire and Luzietti accompanied him to Shindle's yard with it. Luzietti's fathers truck was used 10 carry the loot. The wire weighed 135 pounds.
 Luzietti pleaded not guilty to the charge and contended that he did not know the wire was stolen. He was driving to the junk yard with articles which he had been given and for which Shindle paid him S3, when Chachulski asked him to carry the wire, telling him he found it near the Stanley Works fence.
 Chachulski pleaded guilty, ex plaining that he believed he was guilty because he had disposed of the wire, but he actually had not pill fered it knowingly, having found it in some bushes near the factory fence. It had the appearance of old wire, so he took it.
 Sable Pleads For Client
 Attorney Yale Sable. counsel for Shindle, asked for consideration on the ground that it was not the ordi- nary case in Y hich small boys call at night and dispose of loot. The young men drove in with a truck and their ages gave Shindle the inn pression that the junk had been ob- tained legtimately, the attorney said, and he also called attention to the wire which did not look like use able material.
 Prosecuting Attorney Woods call ed on Sergeant Feeney, who told the court Luzietti and Chachulski told him in Shindle's presence that the latter wanted them to say noth- ing to anyone about the deal. Attor- ney Sable challenged MT. Woods to ask the young men about that point and when he did. Chachulski cX- plained that Shindlc merely told them to drop the junk off and drive away. He did not tell them not to mention it, however.
 Judge Saxe remarked that Shindle had been convicted in the local court last November on a similar charge. In addition to the fine, Judge Sake imposed a suspended jail sentence of so days and placed Shindle on probation. He warned Luzietti and Chachulski that their next conviction would mean jail sen- tcnces.
 Kaplan Fined $25
 Max Kaplan, 5S, of 76 Oak street, pleaded guilty to the charge of en- gazing in the second hand business without license and fine of S2o and costs was imposed. Detective P. J.EO'Mara testified that Kaplan ad- mitted having purchased brass which was stolen from the Stanley Works. The employe who stole it was fined in police court yesterday.
 Attorney A. A. Greenberg, repre- senting kaplan, said there was no question but that violation had been committed. but kaplan has done very little business on account of his age and the particular trans action which resulted in his arrest netted him only sS or s9. Prescott ing Attorney Woods observed that Kaplan has had more consideration shown him in police court than any one who has ever been brought in, and he should be punished.
 Admits Bicycle Theft
 Julius Glowacki. 16, of S5 Booth street, pleaded guilty to the charge of theft of bicycle and several tools from August Anderson of Os- good avenue and was fined s20 and costs. Sergeant Feeney testified that the boy and two companions, aged 1c and IS years, entered Anderson s garage Sunday and stole the articles, besides stealing approximately 50 rabbits on Booth, Burritt, Arch, Nash, Cleveland. Smith and Arnlis- tice streets during the past several weeks. Thirty rabbits were recover ed by Sergeant Feeney. who learned that some others had been sold by the boys.
 Glowacki's mother was called on and told Judge SaXe she could not understand the boys connection with inc thrfts as ho wac Iar che ct
