Berlin Néws MURDERERS MAY BE LOCAL ANARCHISTS éimonelli’s Slayers Said to Be| Gounected With Kensington Gang | WAS FORMER RESIDENT| Town and Officials Knocked in Dr. Griswold’s Annual Health Report— Unsanitary Conditions Exposed— Parish Fair Tonight—Off On Fish- | ing Expedition. That John DiVanzo and Steve Du- gone of New York, accused of the murder of Raffaele Simonelli, a former Kensington resident, in New Britain Tuesday night were more or less %closely affiliated with a gang of anar- chists whose headquarters are said to be in Kensington, is now believed by those who have followed the case. Recognizing the pictures of the men @s published in the Herald, it is re- ported by these that the alleged mur- derers were seen at the rendezvous of . the alleged local anarchists. Since the arrest of Giobbe Sanchini and his wife Irma, in New Britain about three weeks ‘ago by United States federal guthorities on ‘the charge of anarchy it is said the al- Jeged gang of anarchists in Kensing- ton has been especially secretive in its movements. At the time of the ar- rest of the New Britain couple nu-! merous anarchistic papers were seized by the officers. Among the papers secured was a paper called the “Cro- naca Bovversia”, which expounds doc- trines of an anarchial nature. The pa- per is published in Lynn, Mass, by Luigl Gallerni and Giovanni Romo, who are now held by the federal au- thorities. Among the documents tak- en by the federal authorities at the i into their confidence. leading anarchists in this country and Italy. It is further reported that at least the names of two prominent Kensington men appear in the anar- chistic organ. The existence of a gang in Kens- ington has been called to the atten- tion of the federal authorities in Hart- ford, by Prosecutor Willlam H. Gib- ney. Nothing so far as is known, has been done in the matter. Prosecutor Gibney has been keeping a close watch on the movements of the gang and it is said has secured some damaging evidence. It is said the band has been meeting in Berlin for over two years and it was only through accident that the au- thorities learned of the organization. While working on liquor cases in this town, it is said, a federal detective as- signed to help the local prosecutor be- came friendly with the members of the anarchist society and was taken The detective learned all their secrets and objects and communicated with Prosecutor Gibney. In the meantime, according to, Mr. Gibney, the local Italians be- catfié “suspicious that they had been betrayed and after due diligence dis- covered the source. Fearing his life, the detective left Kensington. Attend Simonelli Funeral. Mr. and Mrs, Joseph Kingo of Kensington attended the funeral, of their son-in-law, Raffaele Simonelli who was murdered Tuesday in New Britain, held in New Britain this morning. A large number of other local Italians also were present at the last rites. The funeral was held from the Church of St. John the Evangelist. Rev. J. J. Fitzgerald officiated and burial was in the new Catholic ceme- tery. Dr. Griswold’s Report. Exposing sanitary conditions as most unsatisfactory, showing entire lack of system, tendering his resigna- tion and branding the recent wide spread of epidemic as due entirely to | the complete lack of prevention on the part of the town officials, school boards and health boards of the past, are some of the outstanding features | in the annual health officer’s report submitted to the selectmen by Dr. Roger M. Griswold.

PLAINVILLE AND PROSPERITY A certain town in New York state is famous because it was the birthplace of Rip Van Winkle. Whether that is some- thing to be proud of is a debatable ques- tion. If it can boast of other accomplish- ments it may be able to live down the reputation of having produced the sleep- iest man the country ever heard of, the only man who didn’t grumble when the alarm clock exploded every morning. But Rip Van Winkle never led a move- ment for the erection of a new town hall. He never stood on the main street and exhorted his fellow citizens to buy Liberty Bonds or to hurry on to Berlin.. No, Rip slumbered; it was the biggest thing he ever did during his life. ; Plainville has a number of Rip Van Winkles, but they don’t realize it. They wouldn’t lift a finger to harm the town because they sincerely believe they are on the right path when they are trying to Catskill the community.
