Galiney Hits Practice | —Di Mauro Found Guilty The practice of paying a police agent” to purchase liquor in viola- tion of the law “amounts to almost a felony,” according 1o Attorne Cyril F. Gaffney, who represente Vincenzo DiMauro, -aged 33, of 329 Church street, in police court toda DiMauro being charged with violat- ing the law on January 26 and also with being a third offender. Attor- ney Gaffney said he did not intena that his declaration should be in- terpreted as an attempt to condone the violation but rather that it be considered in mitigation of the pen- alty.

The revocation of the suspended | jail sentence caused the question to arise whether or not DiMauro would be obliged to go to jail be- |fore his case reached superior |court. Chief Hart cemmunicated | with Judge Roche, who explained that he found probable cause and lordered DiMauro held for superior court s0 that the case has not been finally disposed of. The 30 days’ | jail sentence must be served in ad- dition to whatever penalty the su- perior court imposes, but it will not be started until the superior court acts on the probable cause finding. Meanwhile, DeMauro will be at lib- erty in $2000 bond. NAVY BALLOON I CAUGHT IN WIRES Occupants Ushurt in New Hamp- shire Accident | North Hampton, N.

In notes made of the alleged contes- sion Shalnitz was credited with say- ing that “something went wrong; there was a terrible explosion and T was thrown into the street and dazed.” Shalnitz said he got a ride to Bethany and from therc was taken to the hospital. Coroner Monzani is understood to have had a number of details of & working arrangement between Wise and Shalnitz, and from the alleged confession in the Sunday fire will come an inquiry into other fires, including onc at Naugatuck.
