Inquest on Shooting Of Daniel E..
 Walker Begun by Coroner
BUTT OF BARROOM JOKERS
Accused Caught Setting Fire to Ten ants Furniture and Was in "Play- ful'' Mood-Said to Have Ugly Temper.

HCmper.
 Bridgeport, Sept. 9.-An inquest into the killing of Daniel F. Walker, a saloonkeeper and prominent in city politics on Saturday night by Louis Bonion, a friend, was begun by Cor oner John J. Phelan today Pending an order from the coroner, Bonjon is kept locked up and probably will not be taken into court for arraignment until that is given. Inquiry will be extended to determine Bonjon's actual mental state, it having been said that alleged irrational acts of late had given acquaintances the impression that he was mentally unbalanced.
 Bonjon entered into an argument in Walkers saloon which had been begun by others. He had shown signs of anger and Walker had admonished him in friendly way to keep out of the discussion. Then it was he shot and killed Walker
 William J. Fitzgibhons, bartender for Walker, the first witness beforo Coroner Phelan, said that Bonjon had been leased by others in the place until he became angry. Bonjon was usually the subject of jokes when in the barrOOm. After an argument started in which BOnjOn joined, Fftz- gibbons said he took Bonjon to a rear door and advistd him to go home. Bonjon returned just as witness got behind the bar again. Walker came in and said to Bonjon, "Don't be fool; they are only jollying you: bet ter go home." Bonjon shota nd Walk CT fell. A second shot was fired as Fitzgibbons bore Bonjon to the floor.
 Fitzgbbons said that Bonjon was known to have an ugly temper when angry and of late had shown mental disturbance almost without provoca- ton. Throughout the nelghborhood he had long been the butt of jokers
 William J. Fitznerry and others told of the salon incidents and tes- tified that Bonion had peculiarities.
 It was developed that Bonjon had considerable property. including ten ement blocks. A week ago he was detected trying to set fire to some of his own furniture. and later to set fire to some articles btlonging to tenant When caught he seemed to be in playful" mood.
