GASES VS.. Vines
$4,000 SUIT BASIS
Plaintiff Claims Brickyard
Fumes Killed Oil Grapes

The hearing of the $4,000 damage
suit brought by John Fracasso
against the Stiles & Reynolds Brick
Co Inc. was started today in city
court before Judge Henry T. Roche.
The case was listed for trial by
Jury but at the last moment both
sides agreed to have a trial by Judge.
The case Is that of alleged dam
age and INJURY done to a vineyard
owned by the plaintiff which ad-
joins the property. of the brick con-
Germ, through the emanating sui
phuric gases from the fuel oil used
by the defendant in baking the
brick.
The first to testify was the plain
tiff. who in broken English told the
court about the business of grape
cultivation in which he has been
engaged for the past - years and
the ruination of the crop OF 1927
when it is alleged that the leaves
began to shed and the tips Of the
trees we're killed by the sulphuric
vineyard from the brick kiln Of the
defendant The vineyard is located
on South street The plaintiff claimed
that the smoke from the burning Of
the oil was blown over the crop.
causing the fruit to shed and foliage
% fall to the ground.
George P. Clinton. botanist In
charge of the experimental station
of the Connecticut Agricultural col
lege. was next called by the counsel
for the plaintiff to testify as an en-
pert According to his findings
and analysis after examining the
leaves and fruit at the request OF
the plaintiff and defendant, the TO-
liage was injured about 50 per cent
and he attributes the shedding of
the leaves and killing of the tips OF
the trees to the sulphuric gas
emanating from the smoke. He said
that the gas could be the only direct
cause for the injury as upon further
examination in the vicinity. he
found no vegetation injured, which
could be caused by sun scorch. En-
hibits Of the foliage were produced
in court as we'll as branches of the
vine bushes through which the eX-
pert cndeavored to show the injury
caused.
At press time the testimony Of
the expert was Just about completed
and there were still about - more
witnesses. among them chemists
and experts to testify. II is prob
