around a table. There was a pile
of money on thetsbie. and each of
the men had cards in his hands. The
eighth man Dam ‘ not in the
game at that time. ”‘tt'glr he had
been previously, it was said.
This. Connery._declared._ did not
not‘couetitnt’e evidence of gambling.
The only evidence he had been able
to get of any gambling. he told re.
porters later. was that of the Chlef
himself. who admitted gambling in
theaFire House some six years ago.
The rules of the company Were
frequently broken. and especially the
rule as to use of profanity, Connery
went on to the reporters. He stated
that that vary evening the rule per-
taining to the use of profane lan-
guage had been btoken in his pres-
ence. and by a paid member of the
department.
The matter was not being tried
fairly. he continued. Chief Bogar-
dus was the complaining witness.
and yet he was allowed to sit on the
Board.
After the hearing Frineil denied
emphatically that there was any
politics in the matter at all. '
“There's something in it." Con-
nery said. "And it‘s a shame. This
board is only picking on the Pul-
narn Hose Co. it's not getting after
the other companies. There's some-
thing behind it all."
Under the advice of Connery the
accused men refused to answer any
question when they appeared before
the board.
About 10:30 Fire Chief Bogardus
and Attorney Connery left the oalco
where the meeting was being held.
and the board considered the evi-
dence given. At the end of the de-
liberation the reporters and Attor-
ney Connery were admitted. "
Connery Interrupts.
"In reference to the matter of
eight volunteer firemen. charged
with breaking the rule on gambling."
Fire Committeeman Friuell said:
“This has been referred to the corn-
mlttee on nre, connstmg of myself.
and the matter will be referred.to

“That's all we
Connery interrupted.
"As a committee on are." contin-
ued Mr. Frizzoll. “I have made

“But you had no real evidence of
gambling here tonight." Mr. Con-
nery interrupted again. “It's a
shank—all this is being done in
spite."
“Mr. Connery. if you have any.
thing to say to these gentlemen. I
wish you would say it to them out-
side." '
"I don't have to say it to them
outside. 1 can talk in here.“
“No. you cannot."
"Oh. yes. I‘ can. I have]. right
to voice my views on the matter."
.“I' be‘ gto tiller." '
“Do'you mean toesylcenttaik?"
'“Xr. Connery. as far as this case
‘ts concerned. you are. through."
“Then that's where I differ.“-
“If you want to say anything. say
it to these men upstairs."
“I can talk anywhere I want."
“Yes. outside of this office."
"And inside the once."

the Common Council for further act
peered and then Friszell said:
“Mi-fflonnei'y. will you go now?"
,"I warn you not to lay a hand on
me." . . .
“Well. rather than have anyone
else do it. I'will do it Amy-e11" said
Prim". taking Connery'by the arm
and leading him to the door.
"I want you gentlemen of the
press to note this." Connery said.
'fAnd J ask you to note it, too.”
said Friszell.
The door was closed. with Con-
nery on the outside. By that time.
the volunteers, gathering that game.
thing was afoot, had crowded round
the door.' Connery explained that
he had been put out. and immediate-
ly a. hub-bub started.
“Mr. Connery." said one man.
“You're going'right back into that
meeting. and we're the ones who will
put you back."
Connery refused the odor. and
prevailed upon the men to keep
quiet. - ‘
Mr. Friueii continued with his
statement to the reporters:—
"We must remember that this ii-
a Fire Department matter first. and
then a Council matter only second—
ly. I see it as the duty of the Fire
Departmentofioard of Control. to
conduct this work. and to resort to
the Council when needed.
l‘rlnell's Statement
”This Board met with the sincere
wish to regulate its internal affairs
to the best interests of the city. It
has duly and carefully considered
the activities of certain members of
the volunteer department and we
feel it is essential to refer the mat-
ter to the Council. That is all."
Asked. as to the names of the
eight men against whom charges
were made, Mr. Friuell said that in
fairness to them he did not wish
to divulge them.
"I suppose this matter will re
ccive a good deal of publicity. i.
wish everything to be aired
too.
that needs airing. and before the
Council the matter will be on a
square basis. I state. with all cer-
tainty: that there is no politics in
this matter. The Chief. I beiicve,
is of a different political faith than
myself .but it makes no difference.
I took an oath—a vow—when) took
office, and 1 mean to stick to it.
There lime been no charges against
the Chiei~and if there were they
would be investigated just as im-
partially. Our one aim is to haw
an efiicient fire department."
Attorney Connery for the accue
'ed men .rcfuscd to divulge their
names.
“You a... say for me." he said
"that 1 consider this meeting a Star
Chamber Session. The slat men
do not matter individually. it is the
l'utnum iiose Company that is con-
cerned. They will light to the last
ditch. They have 83,000, and will
spend every cent of it if noceuery
to see that none of their members
are persecuted."
shake‘ mulls
Later Friszell and Connery mot
outside the firehouse. and shook
hands.
"Mr. Frizsell." Connery said. "i
give you credit for one thing. At
first Lth’ought you were going to
pass the hack, and have someone
else do your work. I go on record
here that you're a good sport any-
how, and if you have to put ally-
one out you do it yourself."
"Mr. Connery. l have no animosity;
toward you or anyone else. out-
sido here 1 am a plain eiilsen. and
morer a business man. Perhaps i
do not shine as a legal light. but i
have, and will, continue to do my
duty as! see it." .
"But out here you’re a good Damo-
crut just as I am?" Connery ques-
tioned.
"And its very hard to be a Demo.
crat in Norwalk." Mr. Friscil an-
swered.
"lou know Mr. Friuell. after i
was .put out tonight. these boys
wanted to put me back in again.".
“Im glad they didn't do so."
it‘riuell answered.
"it would have done little good.
and the only result that is sure. is
that someone would have been
mussed up. I. for one. have some
dental work that I don't want dis-
turbcd. as it cost me quite a little
money."
Further action in the matter will
be taken by the Bose Company
through its attorney, Connery. it
was announced.
During the course of the evening.
Home: Craw. Captain of the Old
Well Commit. and Stanley Tali-
madge, Captain of the Putnam
Hose. were called in before the
meeting.. presumably to be asked to
keep strict observance of all regu-
lations in their companies.
The matter of gambling in the
tire house Is against the rules of
the Department. Some time ago.
Committeenian entered the
station. and found a card game in
session. which was termed by the
players as “bunny onto." and by
.9... other: as .. "good reiter-
game."

During an interchange_ of argu-

speak. Grochl stopped him.

. Volunteers the Truth
speaking in perfect English. ex-
pressed in well modulated and soft-
ened tones. the lounging prisoner
often interrupted his interiocutor
with the words: “If you wish the
truth. Just ask me; l'ii tell you."
Once. when Alccrn accused him
of having lied in obtaining a line.-
hc replied with an easy smile:
"Why. certainly i lied. The car
was stolen. I knew it. I had no
bill of sale. You don't suppose I
am any more honest about things
that may get rue in trouble than I
am about my work. do you?"
"I don't know if that's my gun."
he said when Alcorn ask him if one

millions like it in the world.“ as
freely admitted that he and Ander-
son had employed two es-eonvictv.
Sally and Tripp. in a sort of “crime
syndicate" that operated in a doses

“0: course we had guns." he
said. "and burglars' tools. But
these aren't my preperty.” he told
Alcorn when he showed him a
sledge hammer. a safe drill and
other crackmen’s paraphernalia in-
troduced in evidence as having been
found in Sheen's star's room. Sheen
had testified that Chapman had
shipped the soul to him from Mun-
cle for storage. ‘

man who had "turned me in" was
known to a wide circle of crooks-as
”one of them." .
"If you want the truth—not the
apparent truth—ask me and I'll tell
you." Chapman once told Alcern.
when the prosecutor sought to get
him to admit ownership of the in-
criminating safe cracking took
found at the scene of the robbery an
murder.
In even tones he denied the testi-
mony of two witnesses who had do-
ciared he was with Shaun at the Old
Colony inn. Meriden. Conn. the
night of October 11. “That beetl-
mony." he said. "is true in no do-
tail. so far as it concerns me."
He seemed entirely uni-allied when
he left the stand as Judge Jennings
declared a. short recon.
When court reconvened Alder!
said he was through with the cre-
examlnation and Chapman resumed
the stand for re-direct examination
by Grochi. Again I. burly pom
stood over the indolent figure slump-
ed into the chair.
A dim smile played about the
prisoner's lips as he said in answer
to Groehl's question if he had ever
before been charged with murder?
"Only in the newspapers."
"It was a pollute. I think. for the
Duper! to accuse the of a murder
every few days."
