One wheel was found over in the lot fully 50 feet away from the wreck. Going in an castcr1y direction, the view of the tracks is hidden by the brick sheds and this has been the cause of many deaths.

CONSTABLE ACCUSED OF USING HIS GUN
NeWingtOn Officer and Local Men
 in Serious Mixup

A case Of local interest will come up in the Ncwinston town court at x o'clock this evening if William Chiap- poni of 1915 Stanley street is able to leave the New Britain General hospital where Inc has been confined since yes received when Inc was shot in the head and in the legs by Constable Smith of Newington. John Bclocki of this cit y was riding with Chiapponi m the Reo truck when tho latter was fired upon
 The matter came to the attention of the New Britain police at 12::n o'clock yesterday morning when Sergeant George !. Kelly received telephone call from Constable smith Of Newing- ton, informing him that two men in d Rec truck had fired at him when he at tempted to halt them for driving with out lights. Sergeant Kelly detailed offi- Ccrs Peter Cabclus and c. W. Hellberg to investigate. They picked up Super numerary Officers Maurice Flynn and William Mccarthy and started for Newington. At Elm and East Main streets they met Officer Hanford Dart with Iiclocki and chiapponi. who claimed to have been held up and fired at. Chiapponi's face was covered with blood from wound tn the head.
 The entire party proceeded 10 Elm Hill where they met Constable smith, who immediately identified the truck and the two men. The constable, in p statement to Sergeant Kelly. said he halted the truck to ask the driver why tho lights were not being used. He had his pocket billy in his hand. he said, which Chiapponi seized and struck him with. In order 10 attract assistance. the constable said he drew his revolver and fired, into the ground. He did not shoot at the men. he claims. but to de- fcnd himself he struck Chiapponi with the revolver. Chiapponi and Belocki both said that the constable shot the former. They also denied that ciapponi took the billy from the constable.
 At the New Britain General hospital last evening it was stated that Chiap- poni is wounded but none Of the bullets were lodged in his body. The men are employed in local saloons. Chiapponi is an ex-service man and was wounded twice while fighting in France.
