 City To Compel Men
 To Construct Sewer

Legal proceedings against Gustave H. Munzberg and John Botonovitch of Sage avenue, have been started by the city to compel these two property owners to allow the city to lay a sewer across their property.
 At present the Sage avenue sewer is running in the gutter and Health De- partment officials have signifed their Intention of asking the State Health Department to come here and lay the sewer. Hundreds of complaints have been received by the Health Depart ment relative to the deplorabIe con d1tion of the sewer. Potonovitch will allow the city to cross his prop erty for $500 but as this is consid- cred much too high sheriff's notices have been served.
 A public hearing will be held at the next meeting of the Common Coun- ell. Sage avenue runs from Boston avenue to Barnum avenue and is the last street in the city, part of it run ming into Stratford. In order to lay Ihe sewer along the street, it would be necessary to go into Straford and this can not be done.

Stolen Cars . Are Irlss1re ed
 Police Aver

fiscated by the New Haven police Two of the cars were returned to their original owners while the other Is still at the New Haven police sta- tion awaiting identification. This car, the thief told the New Haven po- Ice, was stolen from the parking space on Broad street, directly op- posite City Hall, but so far, no one from this city has been able to iden- tify it as their car.
 Another thing that seriously hamp- CTS any attempt the police migi.l make to bring the guilty parties to justice, is the fact that two-thirds of the cars that are stolen are insured. Once a car is stolen, an a claim put in for insurance an investigation is made If within reasonable length of time the car is not discovered the insurance is paid.
 The car may turn up, probably six months or a year later, but the owner will refuse to identify it as his car, as received in payment for it to the in Surance company. The prosecution of the thieves stops there, as there is no complaining witness.
 To Be COnflScated.
 One thing, though, that should in- terest every buyer of a car that was able to procure it cheaper than the regular Ford price, is that if the dis coVeIy is made that the car has been stolen it will be imm ediately confis- cated. For every car that is sold must be registered at the State De- partment of Motor Vehicles and a tabUlated record is kept there.
 It would therefore be easy to check up the number of cars a man who is discovered to be a thief has disposed of and all of these cars would be ordered returned and persons who have reported their cars stolen would be invited to see if they could iden- tify them.
 In case they are not identified the police would hold them nevertheless as the fact that they were taken from a man who has been convicted of hav- ing sold stolen. cars would be consid- cred evidence enough to hold them

 Accident Finds
 Coroner Phelan

Coroner John J. Phelan issued his finding in the death of Dementino Tripodi, ~45, of Greenwich, who was killed while working in the Cos Cob power plant June 23, last. Tripodi came to death in an unknown manner according to the Coroner's finding and his death was "accidental.''
 TripodI worked as an ash and coal man for the power company for a number of years and on the morning of June 23, about 20 or 30 seconds after he had probably fallen through the gates of the coal hopper his body was discovered by a fellow workmen who immediately shut off the power. When his body was picked up he was found to be dead. The machinery used in feeding the coal is the most modern and Tripodi's death was not cansed by reason of some action or commission of any person or persons.

 Mayor A. T. Pace, of Herrin, made this grim statement at 3 o'clock this morning when accompanied by Chief Of Police Robert Herring and the correspondent of the International News, he made a personal investiga- ion of the sinister reports late last night that the 12 wounded non-union men were to be taken from the Her rim hospital and deliberately slain so as to prevent the telling of their story to the world.
