FAMOUS FRENCH AVIATOR
 CHARGED WITH HOMICIDE.
Sub Lieutenant Jean Navarro Placed
 in Military Prison.

Paris, April Is, 5.1O p. m.-Sub- Lieutenant Jean Navarro, one of the French armys famous aviators, who had been sought for several days by the police on a charge of attempted homicide, was captured today and placed in a military prison to await courtmartial and probable examination by mental experts
 Navarro was severely wounded last June and since then has acted in an eccentric manner. In view of his splendid services to the country he was punished lightly for several breaches of the peace.
 Several nights ago he showed his anger against the police by speeding through the principal streets of Paris in an automobile, knocking down every policeman he saw. Five policemen were taken to hospitals a result of this escapade and several others were bruised severely. He then went to aviation headquarters and escaped in an airplane.

 The shell was wrapped in a news paper and in the opinion of the police it was left by q resident of East Bridgeport a section now under maF- tial law. Soldiers have searched but a few houses fin the district and con- fiscated all weapons and firearms.

The police scout the theory that it was intended to blow up the bridge or destroy trains running on the New Haven road by the place where 1t was placed on the tracks.
