FRANK DEMARTINO TAKEN TO FIRST
DISTRICT JAIL TO AWAIT HEARING
ON ORDERS FROM CORONER PHELAN
John Matron, Edward Sheehan and Frank Gilbert Are‘in
the Second District Police Headquarters—In-
quiry Rammed This Afternoon.
Frank DeMartino. John Marron and
Edward Sheehan were again placed
under arrest yesterday afternoon. fol-
lowing the death at the Nor-walk Hos-
pital. at 12:30 o'clock. of Sergeant
James A. Brnnagan. sud are being
held under orders of Coroner John J.
Phelan without bond; Frank Gil-
bert. who was unable to obtain bonds
when first arrested charged with sim-
ple assault. is also held by the corn-
ner's orders.
Coroner Phelan will be in Norwaik
this afternoon at 2 o'clock to r some
his inquiry into Branngan' 8 death.
It is learned that the police have lo-
rated a piece of iron. a bit of an old
spring leaf. with which it. is believed
that Branagnn was struck. during the
brawl that. occurred between the Ger-
manla Hotel and O‘Connor's Garage,
carlv “'edncsday morning.
Evidence showed- that . Branagan
had sustained a fracture of the base
of the skull. and abrasions on the right
: 'alde of the head. seemed toyinlllcate
that he hurt been struck with some
hcavv blunt instrument.
Delhi-tho. who was Ire-arrested yes-
tnrdnv afternoon. was taken to the
first dictrict station. where he was
held mnamts from Sbeohsn and Ver-
von. who were held In the Second dis-
trict lockup.
It is said that there are marks on
the More of icon in the, posse-moo of
the notion that are to be examined in
the belief that some of them are finger
prints. while others pro blood mark;-
The police hsvé been extremely Ida
ive in the case. which has trained
much interest because of the mug?
baffling features of it. '
It. is known that there was a row
on Wednesday evening. in which
Branag-an and Sheehnn exchanged a.»
fit: blows. Gllbe Marx-on and Do-
Martino were emb tied by them-
seivesI but no one has been found who
would say as to what caused Bruno-
gun's condition. The supposition nut
he might have fallen‘ and struck his
head against a. curbing has been ad-
vanced.
There is a. strong suspicion that the
whole truth 1 theJnstter has not
been brought out as yet... and that
there is some concealment of vital
facts in the ‘storics that have been
40k] to data by witnesses. .
Coroner Phelan's action in holding
the men is similar to that employed
in the inquest a year ago into the mur-
der of Luigi Apiceiia by Mike Seri- 0.
when witness-u were arrefled not held
without bonds on tho coroner's or-
ders. until the.truth of the shooting
of Antenna was told.
