COURT NEWS
soDrNls RIVALS SUE

They Want Damages Because Their
Places Were Closed.
Suit has been brought by Albert Schaf-
fer and w. w. Brown against j. c. Sodini
for damages claimed to have been sus-
tanned by them in the closing of the
Standard theater, which they<were oper-
ating under the An1es regime. Summons
in the suit have not been served how
ever. as Sodini is said to;<be seeking
health in Italy. arse
The case grows out of the recent test1-
mony given by Irwin A. Gardner before
the grand jury which resulted in the is
suance of the last indictment against the
former mayor and his recent arrest In
New Hampshire. There will be an at
tempt to show that Sodini and Dr. Ames
were guilty Of conspiracy to drive
Messrs. Brown and Schaffer out OF busi-
ness as they interfered with SodtnIs pat
ronage at the Columbia. The matter OF
service will be decided In court Thursday
1t is possible that Peter Blar will also
bring suit against Sodini because his re-
sort was closed at the same time and In
the same way. .s1
