Heaviest Fine This Week Was $240 for HMegally Having Furs The heaviest fine at police court this week was one of $240.00â€"$20 each for 12 beaver pelts in illegal possession. Game Warden Don Sylvester told of secing Joffre Paul throw these off a truck in Deloro township. The Game wWarden said he immediately secured possession of the bag of furs and that the accused had said they were his and that there were twelve beaver skins. This count was verified at the police station. Inspector Beacock gave eviâ€" dence to the effect that he had heard the accused admit in the police station that the furs were his and laughingly refer to the time and trouble they had cost to secure and the further loss there would be in a fine. The defendant deâ€" nied that the furs were his or that he had ever said they were. His coun sel, Dean Kester, K.C., suggestéd that he might have jokingly made some reâ€" mark that the police understood as an admission. One defence witness, who was also on the truck, and who was fined some weeks ago for illegal possesâ€" sion of beaver pelts, said he did not see Paul throw off the bag. : When he was asked if the bags of furs could not have been thrown off without him seeâ€" ing it, answered that he was too busy watching his own bundles. next highest fine was $100 and costs imposed on Irene Menard, Third avenue, on a charge of obstructing the police in a liquor charge.
