 Following an investigation last evening by Constable Frank Brown, the accident which occurred early yesterday morning at the railroad underpass in Kensington which re- mained shrouded in mystery throughout the day and occasionsd many surmises was thoroughly ex- plained. n,.
 Daylight exposed evidences of the accident yesterday morning, broken glass and large splotches of blood showing on the abutment at the underpsss. It indicated an automo- bile had crashed into the east side of the support. It was believed that two automobiles had been involved in tho accident because of the large quantity of shattered glass.
 Investigating last evening, Con. stable Brown discovered that an automobile driven by Bennie Telew- ski of 10t Broad street. New Brit ain, was the only one in the acci- dent.
 According to information given the constable, Telewski had been driving towards New Britain when he lost control of his car and ran into the abutmcnt on the left hand side of tho road./ His scalp was gashed and he was taken to the New Britain General hospital by a taxi which passed the scene of the acci- dent shortly after the crash. At the hospital however. Televski asked to be attended by his own physician and no record was made Of the case. This added to the mystery.
 Nc charges will be made against Telewski. according to Constable Brown.
