That's the answer. given emphati-

Service, to the query:
“Where is Clara. Phillips. escaped

“But in her favor. temporarily at

"Nicaragua would be

"In almost any European coun-

"My belief. however. is that she

“It is mighty seldom, however,

dashed through the veetry of the
churchlnto Harriet street. Santone
was rrested by Chief William M.
Nicho s. of Stratford. within an hour
after he fled from the church. being
apprehended at the home of James
Nechols.
His arrest followed his discovery at
the grave of his father in St. Michael's
cemetery, where he had fled from the
church. At the graveside he pulled a
revolver on Sergeant Smith of the
Stratlord force, poked the gun into
the officer’s ribs and threatened to
pull the trigger it the policeman at-
tempted to arrest him in the cemetery.
To avoid bloodshed Smith agreed to
meet Santone after the funeral at a
saloon on Honeyspot Road. Santone
failed to keep the appointment at the
saloon, but was arrested hiding in
Nechoi’s home nearby.
Bridgeport police received word
from the Waterbury authorities early
this week that Sanione was wanted in'
connection with the shooting of Spino
on June 8 last, when a bullet. alleged
to have been fired by Santone struck
Splno on the head. Santone fled im-
mediately. The death of his father
caused the police to watch for San-
tone at the funeral.
