State Trooper Henry Mayo was in Waterbury again to join with Fire Marshal Den Lahey .n a re- sumption of the investiga aion into the cause of the fire which broke out Thursday morning, damaging three South Main street buildings to the extent of $30,000. The cause has not yet been determined, il- vestigators having been hampeTed by the fact that water has been stand ing several feet high in :e cellars of the building.
 Fire Marshal Lahey has stated thatIt has been decided that the blaze started in about the middle of the cellar of the Bonwit Co.,, IA South Main street. The wiring and heating systems in the building were in good condition, the fire marshal said.
 Quickly climbing to the upper floors of the building, the fire spread through partitions to build- ings adjoining at each side. Stock and fixtures in stores in the three buildings were destroyed oI badly damaged. Ten companies 'e f1remen battled the blaze, hampered by bn- lowing clouds of dense smoke, which filled much of the business section. It was thought for a slime that buildings on Bank street had also caught fire.

Court Asked to Rule
On Dover Riaht

Does a separation agreement be-
tween husband and wife preclude
her seeking a dover right in his
real estate?
That is the question put up to
District Court today by Russell A.
Eldridge, 1920 Thirty third street
NV. He advises the tribunal that,
with his wife, Mrs. Kathleen FL
bridge, 1884 Porter street NV, he
entered into a separation agree
ment on January 20, 1888. He asks
the court to grant a declaratory
judgment against his wife to the
effect that under the terms of the
separation agreement she has &C
quired no dover interest in any
real estate now owned by him or
to be acquired in the future as a
result of the marriage.
Represented by Attorney Mark
P. Friedlander, Mr.. Eldridge de-
clares that the agreement settled
their property rights, but the wife
allegedly has made claims incon-
sistent with it and threatens to file
suit for alimony and to claim a
dover right in his real estate.
