Anderson at the home of his parents on Grand street, and upon whose complaint the det tive bureau made investigation and ar- rests last week, appeared against his wife today. He recited th of their falling out three weeks after the marriage, resulting in their separation until about four months when they again lived together, but for two weeks. He married her when she was but 19 years of age and their married life was anything but happy. The evidence of Sergeant A. J. Richardson and Sergeant Theodore Johnson, both of whom figured in the arrest of Mr. and Mrs. Mendel on August 29 at their home on Park street wa accepted after several points had been argued out by the at- torneys for the plaintiff and the de fendant. Attorney McDonough jected to the marriage license of Men- del and Lola on the grounds that there was nothing to authenticate the sig- nature of the justice of the peace who, they said, had married them in the Brockton show tent, nor the signature of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Hall of To rington, their witne: The licenso had been bound in a book of congrat- ulations and this was taken by Se geant Richardson from the Park street tenement, According to the detectives the two accused in the presence of one an- other made damaging admissions in their cells in the police station. They came here on August 10 and the fol- lowing night went to Torrington. Aft- er leaving their room in Torrington they again came to New Britain where the husband secured employ- ment. His statements and those of Mrs. Worth indicate that he was innocent of her previous marriage up to the time of the arrest. Bigamy Case Continued. Upon being informed of the girl's physical condition her attorney an- nounced that he would waive further examination on the higamy charge but was willing that the misconduct he threshed ouf. Prosecutor George W. Klett explained the possibility of ite’s Attorney Alcorn taking up that matter and recommended that the case be continued until after the superfor court sessions. The date was finally set at September 30 and the bonds of $1.000 in each case reduced to $500 in each case. TUnusual circumstances in will make it possible for ‘the local: court to take jurisdiction although it is customary to have the case tried in the state in' which the second marriage is performed. The couple left Connecticut, were married in Massachusetts, ame back to Con- necticut subsequently and admitted guilt to charges of misconduct.
