in City Court For Tapping
Gas Pipe

Discovering what they claim is a
neat little trap for the purpose of
side tracking Illuminating gas
around the meter and thereby <'do-
ing the gas company. inspectors for
the Bridgeport Gas Light company
complained to the police authorities
and brought about the arrest of Pat
rick and James Flahaven, who run a
saloon and restaurant at S46 Penn
broke street, and william Donahue, a
plumber, of 406 Nichols street.
The F1ahaven brothers and Dona-
hue were arraigned in the city court
this morning on the charge of violat-
ing the state law relative to the tap
ping Of gas pipes. Their cases were
continued until March 10 under bonds
of $500 each for the Flahavens and
$500 for Donahue, who is alleged to
have Installed the plumbing.
According to the claim of the gas
men, the Flahavens had a pipe ar.
rangement fixed around their meter
ed in such a way that during the day
time the gas was piped through the
meter in the regular manner, 50
that il would be all right when the
gas company's inspectors looked at
it But during the evening, it is
claimed Dy the state. the gas was
switched around the meter by a com
bina ton of valves.
Attention was first attracted to Fla
haven Brothers saloon on the part of
the Bridgeport Gas Light company
when the monthly bills which had
been running from SO to s12 took a
sudden drop to 81 and less. AS the
hours for daylight hadn't increased
sufficiently to account for this re-
markable change. the gas company in
spectors went to work on the case.
The meter was examined, but moth
ing wrong found with it. The gas
comrany's trouble SQUAD was baffled
until the discovery of the secondary
pipe line snort circuiting'' the meter.
Then it was ascertained that Donahue
had done the plumbing work for the
saloon. Warrants were issued and
were served by Detective Peter Hall.

ANOTHER INTERNATIONAL
MARRIAGE ENDS IN
THE DIVORCE COURT
(Specia, from United Press. !,

Rome, March 8-Another interna-
tional marriage has met with disaster.
Vittoria Moschini, the wealth!est
member of the chamber of deputies,
today, filed suit for divorce from his
wife, who was formerly Miss Lulu
Davis, of Austin, Tex.
The couple were married in 1910.
Within a year, she was one of the
brilliant figures at both Vatican and
Quirinal functions.
Deputy Mosch nj alleges in his ap-
p!ication for divorce that certain pro-
visions of legal agreement, signed
by the couple before marriage, had not
been carried out by his wife.
