THEFT OF WHISKY
REFORMATIVE DETENTION ORDERED IP.A.) AUCKLAND, May 13. Twelve months’ reformative detention was the sentence passed by Mr Justice Callan to-dav on William Farmilo for the theft of 708 botties of whisky, valued at £575, when employed as a storeman by Hutchinson Brothers, Ltd.. The Judge said the matter seemed to have some connexion with the pernicious slv-grog racket in evidence so much in the city. The prisoner and another seemed to have fallen out, as rogues cominonly did, and the prisoner, who said he was to get £SOO, got only £2OO. ,
