FOUR INVOLVED
 IN DISTURBANCE.
Two Discharged, Two Held for Tomorrow MOrn-
 ing's Session of Court

City court today heard a resume of the activities of four local men, who after a night of hilarity, were lodged in jail by Sergeant Will liam Feeley.
 Two of the men, Frank Griffin, 26, of 83 Scovill street, and Charles Caulfield, 30, of 34 State street, were granted discharges from the breach of peace counts against them.
 Alfred Coughlin, 29, of s3 Scovill street, and Louis Banfe, of Boston, were given continuances until to- morrow when charges other than the breach of peace allegations may be lodged. Judge Edward MascoIo heard the cases today, and after 1t appeared that they were all dis posed of, the continuances were made.
 Coughlin appeared in court with evidences of the might of Banfe's right fist, which landed against his eye at about a. m. The disturb ance was described by Sergeant Feeley as taking place along Meadow and Willow streets, much to the chagrin of the neighbors of that district. A taxi-driver, Francis Greco, testified to part of the dis turbance.
