.GROUNDLESS FEAR
 CAUSE OF SHOOTING

Imaginative fear on the part of Donate DdMenne of TIA Pembroke street that three mem bers of a sec ton gang on the old Air Line division of the New Haven road, over which he had recently been placed as fore man, had come to Bridgeport to "get'' him is now believed, by the police to have been the cause of the shooting fracas on Penn broke street last night.
 Fifteen-years-o old Joseph Gabriel, living at the same address as the fore man, is at Brid geport hospital with a, wound in his left arm caused by a 32 calibre revolver. DiMenne and Gre gorio Scuglia, of S39 Pembroke street were arraigned before Judge Thomas C. Coughlin in City court this morn ing and had their cases continued un- til Thursday under bonds of S1,OO0 each. The former is charged with in toxication and assault with intent to kill. The latter has a, breach of the peace charge against him.
 At first it was reported that the shoting was work or a New York .sBlack Hand'' gang. Today it has been learned that DiMenne, a fore man on the New Haven road for the past three years and having a permit to carry revolver, had recently been shifted from work beIween Bridgeport and New Haven and given charge Of a gang in the vicinity of Colchester Jealousy on the part of the men placed under him is said to have resulted in trouble during which he used a. shovel on one of them.
 In his pocket was round a revolver still warm and with five exploded car trfdges. Later there were found seven exploded shells on the inst landing of his home, taken to mean that he shot one round and had started on the sec ond when Sergeant Charles A. Wheeler and a squad of policemen arrived from the Second precinct police station. An other revolver was found at the house this morning with five exploded car Tidges in it. It is believed that this is a gun carried by. scuglia. Gabriel was entering the house with two com panions when the. shooting started. The police think that DiATenne took the three for members of the Colches-. ter gang.
