BREACHES OF LICENSING LAWS
(Pib Press Association.) DANNEVIRKE, Feb. 15. John H. Tully, licensee of the Club Hotel, was fined £2O and costs, and Grace O'Connor, a barmaid, £2 and costs for supplying liquor to a native woman not being the wife of a |>erson other than a native and the liquor not being supplied for medical purposes. The cases hinged on the question as to what constituted supplying. Several Europeans and natives, including a Maori woman, were in a room of the Club Hotel, and several rounds ot drinks were taken in and olaced on the table. The woman consumed some of the liquor. In the case of the licensee the liquor was taken to the room bv the
European who ordered it. The Magistrate held this to lx> supplying by the licerifeo. who. knowing the woman was present, should have taken steps to prevent her having a drink. In t.lie case against the barmaid, she personally took the drinks to tlie room.
