Before any national policy with re-

JUDGE HINCKS IN
 FEDERAL COURT
Disposed of Several Cases
 at Session in New Haven Yesterday
TWO LOCAL CASES

William Fitzpatrick, alleged own. CT of a speakeasy at AZ Spring street | was fined $500 when found guilty yesterday of violating the prohibi- tion law. He was arraigned in the federal court in New Haven, being one of the first cases tried by Judge Carroll C. Hincks, newly appointed judge of the federal district court. He was given a 30-day suspended jail sentence and ordered to report to Probation Officer Nicholas Combel- lack every two weeks. Placing the accused on probation was new procedure Tn federal court circles, but Judge Hincks made it plain yes- terday that he intended to put liquor dealers on probation and have a strict watcl, maintained over their future activities. Attorney J. w. Carroll of Waterbury appeared for the accused. Federal agents in their raid seized three gallons of alleged gin, nine pints of cider brandy and some moonshine.
 John Flanagan, 19, of William street. Waterbury, charged with il- legal transportation of beer and was given a three-day jail sentence. The accused has been under arrest since last December when he was tried and fined $100 and costs for having a load of beer in his possession.
 Judge Hincks disposed of a num- Der of other cases. It was his first formal appearance since his appoint ment. A number of his Waterbury friends were in attendance and of- fered their. congratulations following the session.
