ARE INVESTIGATING
 MULVIHILL'S STORY

Federal authorities are investigat- ing today, the statement of Joseph Mulvihill who says that Jacob Levy, owner of the Cornpo Inn, a Westport roadhouse, is the king of Connecticut bootloggers. MulvihilI is a sporting man who is pretty well known, a man of large frame, and of considerable ability. He flashed into public notice as a candidate for Congress on a wet platform. He received no delegates, having been arrested on a body writ issued at the request of Levy, Mulvi- hill says Levy is in his debt s2,500. Levy let him have s1,000.
 An interesting sidelight as to the inflated prices paid by retail dealers of liquor, and of course by consum- CTS was given by Mulvihill. He de-

clared that the whiskey was bought by the ring from the New York source of supply for S33 a case, and
 that it was resold to the retailer for prices ranging between S75 and Ss5 Ia case. He said that the ring had made a net profit which ranged from s4OO,OOO to S700,000 during the last year.
 According to thes tory told last night by Mulvihin, all of the liquor which he said Levy has received came from New fork. From New | York it went, he said, to Levy's sa- loon, the Compo Inn. in Westport. | and from there it was transported to various cities in Connecticut, Massa- | chusettS and elsewhere.
 How does he get this iiquor in
 such quantities from New York to | Westport without detection? Mulvi- | hill was asked.
 | "Oh, there arer egular permits is | sued to transport liquor," he answer | ed.
 That is very true,'' the ques- | tioner said, but no permits could | have been issued for the transporta- ton of the thousands of cases of | whiskey and gin which you say were received
 MT. MulvihiH then declared that he . could give no further information on the transportation point at this time.
 He did say, though. that Levq has been engaged in illegally selling liquor ever since prohibition became
 law of the land.
 | All facts in the case have been
 turned over to the United States At torney's office. MT. MulvihiH said. He
 also declared that all Of these facts would be made known before long.

He said that in his estimation there were between 400 and 500 members of the church at the meeting Presi- dent Malonas was not at the meet ing and refused to come, the priest saying that the bishop 'phoned him two or three times, but he refuse to obey the summons.
 After the Bishop had talked to the churc hmembers a vote was taken and the Bishop had all those in fevor of the Rev. Elias take one side of the church standing and those who fa- vored Malonas take the other side. the priest, showed that Malonas had only six of those in the hall on his side and all the rest signified they were in sympathy with the priest.
 There was no settlement of the af- fair made last night, the outcries of the people in bringing politics into the affair breaking up the meeting Rev. Elias said this, morning it is given to the power of the president to call a meeting but that if he does not call meeting between now and No Vember 27 the people will go over the presidents head and call the meeting themselves. A petition under date o1 November 12 has been seth by the people to have Malonas call a meet ing and if he fails to do so after the elapse of 15 days he will be dismissed from the church and a new head be appointed.
 Bishop Rodostoulou returned tc New York last night and told the people before leaving Rev. Elias would remain the head of the church He advised that the Rev. Elias seek the help of the law in settling the controversy. The priest said this
