Gebaj v. State
Gebaj v. State
Opinion of the Court
The plaintiff in error, hereinafter called the defendant, was convicted of selling intoxicating liquor and sentenced to the house of correction of Milwaukee county.
The sole question raised upon this appeal is the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the verdict. It appears that four bottles of beer were seized on July 13, 1923. Upon the preliminary examination one of the bottles was offered in evidence and it was admitted that the alcoholic content of the bottle was in excess of one half of one per cent. At the beginning of the trial in circuit court, counsel for the defendant stipulated that the alcoholic content of the liquor purchased was whatever Mr. Huebner, the chemist, put on the labels on the three remaining bottles.' The bottles were received in evidence without objection, and upon the label on the bottles was the following:
“Health Department. Alcohol 5.40 % by weight.
“E. Huebner Analysis,
“Chemical Laboratory Division.”
By the Court. — Judgment affirmed.
