Five men paid fines in the police court Monday morning for drunkenness and one for breach of the peace. The case against E. L. Weeks of Groton for v'o- lation of the motor vehicle law went over for a day. Judge Arthur F. Libby heard two cases in chambers. A. Davidson, pro- prietor of the Strand theater, was be- fore him on a charge of breach of the peace in kicking Walter W. Lang, lead- er of the orchestra, at the theater Sun- day night. The attack grew out of an accusation by Mr. Davidson that the orchestra was playing old music. The court allowed settlement of the cass by Mr. Davidson paying a $10 fine without costs. Dr. W. B. Casey was also before tit court in chambers, following his arrest on Friday night and again on Saturday night. He was arrested Friday right by Ssrgeant Kane and Officers M. Car- roll and Ryan when he refused {o leave # Pranklin square drug storé when the clerk wanted to close the etore for the night. Tn this case, ‘the accused was fined $10 and costs, amounting to $18.50, on the charge of intox!cation, but the charge of resisting an officer was nolled upon the agreement that the doctor is to pay for the damage done to Officer Carroll's coat which was torn 'n the struggle getting the prisoner to ths police station. The second arrest came on Saturday night when the doctor accused Officer Carroll of glving him a black eye in making the arrest the night before and lution establishing a buildir the easterly side of the u part of McKinley avenue, near the d strast switch, and on Broad _street between McKinley avenue and Warren street. The petition was laid before the coun- cll at the regular September meeting on the Sth and at that time & hearing was set for Monday night. Over a score of property owners interested in. the es- t of the bullding line were present at the hearing, The movement for the building line started several weeks ago when resl-| dents in the vicinity of the Broad stroet awitch learned that Barnst and Yetts Cohn had purchased the lot ‘of land at the corner of MeKinley avenue ani Broad street and that Mr. Cohn intend- ed to erect a store on a line with the sidewalk, dnstead of having the building line conform with the more or less reg- ular line of the houses on that side of McKinley avenue. Objection was also to the opening of a stors on the location as that section of the city has for years been a residential district, The council was called to order about 1.15_o'clock, standard time, by His Hon- or, Mayor Milo R. Waters, and the min- utes of the previous meeting were ac- cepted without reading, according to custom. The sheriff's return of servie was read by the city clerk after which the hearing was declared open, Petitloners Present Arguments. Alexander Sharpe, Whose name head- ed the petition, was the first to be heard, I strongly protest against the erection of a Dbuilding, in line with the sidewalk on McKinley avenue, north - of - Broad street, sald Mr. Sharpe. Unquestionably it destroys the line that has already Dbeen followed there, he continued. We have heard a great dea about the olty beautiful. Are we tryiag to make our clty beautiful? Are we helping Nor- wich maintain her reputation as the Rose of New England when we permiy new builders to follow hodge podge plans which may suit the individual's purpose but will not play their mart in making as many sections of the towa as possible destable places to live in. I take this opportunity to urge thag the members of the clty council show that they have the future attractiveness and welfare of Norwich at heart by granting the petition. Arthur L. Peale, another of the pett- tioners and a McKinley avenue proper- ty holder, followed Mr. Sharpe. Mr. Peale said he spoke from a humanita: ian standpoint, having in mind the dan- ger to school children who have to ues the corner. He called attention to the fact that the street iz but 33 feet wide and that thers is a trolley track in the street. If a store were erected Tight mn the comer the chfldren rushing down Broad street from the Broad street school would not be able to ses ap- proaching automobiles as the store building would obstruct the view. There is hardly room for an automobils to pass the trolley cars at that point. It is getting dengerous, said Mr. Peals. Judge Thomas J, Kelly, who with At- torney Warl Matthewson appeared In de- half of Mr. Cohn, followed Mr. Peale. Judge Kelly sald he would like to hear from the corporation counsel as to how 2 man ecan be deprived of the use of his property. Ho said he understood from the speakers that the petition to estab- lish a bullding line is a movement to stop a man from erecting a store. Judgs Kelly said that if the petitioners want a biflding line on the easterly side of the street it seems they should have a bullding line on the other side 2s well. He said it seemed strange that the pe- tittoners had not asked for a bullding line before.. He called attention to the fact that if the councll saw fit ts pass the building line resolution they shou!d take into consideration possible damage claims that might arise. Explains Law in the Case. William H. Shields, Jr, corporation counsel, read the statute regarding the establishment of building lines, damage claimg and the penalty for viclation of Tine for jthe building line restrictions. The cor- poration counsel expressed the opinfon that one way to benefit the school chil- dren would be to widen the street and take the corner. Tn answer to a query from Judge Kel- ly, Corporation Counsel Shields explain- ed that the penalty for violation of the building line provisions would de a fine of $100 and that that portion of a bufld- ing within the restricted section would be assessed annually four fold. Mr. Cohn Tells Costs. In answer to questions from Judge Kelly, Mr. Cohn sald his wife owns the land, that the purchase price of the land was' $1.500, that he had lald out $220 for a sidewalk, had made a $750 con- tract for digging of the cellar and that the plans for the buflding cost $350. Fle said the building he planned to erect would contain a store and two teme- ments. Judge Kelly, sald Mr. Peale, you stated that it was strange that some of us did not apply for & bullding line be- fore this. We thought there was no ne- cessity for one as everyone has simply built on the same line. We wanted this man to put his store on the same line as our houses. We did not suppose this section would ever become a commer- clal neighborhood. Mr. Cohn certainly has a right to start a business venture, said Judge Kelly. It is a serious matter when you interfere with his rights. I don't think you should use this method to stop him from erecting this bullding. Broad Street Resident Speaks. I am here to represent no one but my- self, sald Attorney Charles L. Stewact. 1 4o not live on McKinley avenue, but do live on Broad street, he continued. Here is & man comlng into a strictly residen- tial district. He comes with & purpose to commercialize this district. It is not 80 that a man can use hi¥ property as he sees fit. He must not use it to the detriment of his neighbors. He should be Tequired to conform to a building line such as the council sees fit to establish, Martin B. Jensen, 2 Broad street prop- erty holder, said that Mr. Cohn's lot is ample in size to take care of his building even if the building Were set back to-the new line. Judge Kelly at this point said that Mr. Cohn had just informed him that he in- tended to erect another bullding in the front of the lot and a garage in the rear. Councliman Edward Crooks asked if the passage of the resolution would sat- isfy the residents of Broad street and McKinley avenue if Mr. Cohn bullt on the new line, the new line. : Councilman Crooks said he didn't feel that the petitiofiers should have the store imposed on them if they don't want it. Mayor Waters said he would like to know if the people Wwho would be benefited by the building line resolution would be willing to pay the damages. Intimates It's a Hold-up. | It has been said we are trying to stop Mr. Cohn from building a store, said called the officer a hard name.

Shortly after 8 o'clock the oouncil re- oessed to the mayor's office for a confer- ance on the résolution. ¥ Cquneil Establishes Building ines.

MARY'S OHURCH Tentative plans have been made with Bishop John J, Nilan of Hartford where- by the bishop will coms to Norwich on Sunday, Dec. 10, and dedicate the new St. Mary's memorial church, now in the course of construction on Central avenue. The date will make the 25th anniver- sary of the parish being separated from St. Patrick’s parish, which brought Rev. James J. Smith, now of New Haven, from Hartford to Norwich, as the first resident pastor, and the late Rev. Hugh Treanor from Waterbury to St. Patrick's as pastor. It is planned to make the ded- ication ceremony a memorable event in the annals of this city and the next three months will find Rev. W. A. Keefe the pastor, and his people working out & new programme worthy of the day. There are & few handsome memo- rials yet to be spoken for which are to be placed in the church and along with these Father Keefe has concelved the idea of having a family or individual pew with the nameplate attached with the memorial idea. Rev. Willlam A. Keefe, was assigned to the parish from St. John's church, Plainfleld, succeeding Rev. John H. Fitsmaurice, who was pro- moted to Waterbury, in August, 1919. Shortly after his coming the new chureh project was started and the past three vears speak of his arduous labor, cul- minating in the happy event for parish which will take place in December. The present edifice on North Main Strest was opened for public worship in Mar 1845, ¥ = the pastor, el RS ERWIN ROGERS FOUND DEAD SITTING IN HIS AUTOMOBILE Brwin Rogers, caretaker of the Old Lyme. cemetery, died suddenly Mondsy morning while in his automobile.

Police Chief George Linton had a tele- phone message from the New York d tectives late Monday aftarnoon that a woman had identified the man as Kern and they were looking for Kern's broth- er, Harry, at Greenport, L. I, to notify him of the identification. The movements of this hitherto uniden- tifled victim of the murder gangs was partly traced Sunday when & real estate dealer from Astoria, L. I, appeared at {the morgue and identified the murder victim 2s a man who had been to his office to see him about the sale of some property at Astoria. He had already sold property in Connecticut, it was said, and must have been well supplied with ‘money. The Kern family lived on what fis known as the old Rogers farm on Wau- wecus hill, but sold it about a month or more ago and it is mow occupled by a Polish family. Besides Samuel Kern, who was about 25 or 26, there was his father and a sister in the family, while there is a mar- ried sister, who fs s5aid to Jive In this city.
