A LIQOUR LABEL.
INSUFFICIENT INDICATION. [Bl TELEGRAPH. —PRESS ASSOCIATION.] Wellington, Tuesday. Judgment in an exceptional licensing case was given to-day by Mr. Riddell, S.M. Henry James Peters was charged that he sent a gallon of beer and a bottle of whisky to his own residence in Newtown, a no-license district, without properly labelling the package. The liquor had been consigned in a case bearing the brand "Begg's Whisky." The magistrate held that this was not a sufficient indication of the nature of the package, and that section 146 of the Licensing Act required a specific labelling, even when a person consigned liquor to his own residence. The defendant was fined 20s.
