the place but went back to the house
with the other boys later and helped to
raise havoc. The original break was made
in the day time a number of days ago.
when the back door was forced open.
When inside. the boys seemed bent on
destruction without any gain to them
selves. They broke dishes. windows and
everything else, even taking the trouble
to mar the wood work. Yesterday in
court, Leo Legault, aged 16, was SEN
fenced to 90 days In Jail but was placed
on probation for one year and sentence
suspended. Arthur Dumas, aged 16. was
sentenced to the Industrial school but
was placed on probation for six months,

gone along because he. happened to be
with the other boys, was sentenced to go
days in Jail and placed on probation for
one year. The other member of the
quartette, Francis Ruell. will be tried
this afternoon. States Attorney Martin
recommended, In suggesting the SEN

SPRING HANGER BROKE
Public Service COmmissiOn Finds What
CAUSED Death Of Railroad Man

That the breaking of a spring hanger
caused Octave j. Vizanos death In the
Rutland railroad yard a month ago was
brought out yesterday morning at the
hearing before the Public Service Com
mission at the Hotel Vermont. There
seemed to be no question as to the facts.
as the testimony of the trainmen and
others agreed as to details.
AT the time of the accident Vizano, who
was an experienced railroad man, was
riding on the front Of the shifting engine
on the foot board placed there for that
purpose. The engine had been down near
the Vermont Hardware company's plant
and there one of the hangers broke, ac-
cordfng to the testimony. When the en-
gine had come about a mile toward the
roundhouse, the other hanger broke and
let the front Of the engine settle down
so the foot board was swept under the
engine and this threw Vizano 30 he also
went under the engine. He was injured
so that death was practically in
Simultaneous.
The function of the Public Service Com
mission is not to award damages or
punish anyone but to inquire into the
cause of the accidents and remedy any
bad practices which are in vogue. Their
report will be made later. All the mem
beers of the board and the clerk were
present.
