CITY IS PREPARED TO HAIL DIRIGIBLE VOYAGERS TODAY Whalen Will Greet Crew at Lakehurst -Parade to City Hall Is Planned. With the local Weather Bureau predicting good weather for the Graf Zeppelin until she nears the mainland, when she will encounter cloudy conditions, head winds and lower temperatures, plans were announced yesterday afternoon for the city's official welcome. Grover A. Whalen, chairman of the Mayor's Committee, and his official party will greet those on board the giant air liner when she descends at Lakehurst. Dr.

Hugo Eckener, com- mander of the craft, and the members of his crew will be brought to the Battery in the municipal steamer Macom. There will be a parade to City Hall, where Mayor Walker will extend his atelcome. Whalen Sends Message. Mr. Whalen sent the following message by radio to Dr.

Eckener on the eppelin: "Mayor Walker and the people cf New York await your arrival with happiness. Official program arranged for Monday and Tuesday, will greet you at Lakehurst." Mr. Whalen also stated last night that Maj. Gen. Hanson E.

Ely had designated Lt. Col. Irving J. Phillipson, 16th Infantry at Fort Jay, Governors Island, as grand marshal of the parade which will escort the official party from the Battery to City Hall. It was announced that two floors of the Warwick Hotel had been reserved as a headquarters for Dr.

Eckener the principal members of his start." The city dinner will be given at the Ritz Towers on Monday. Charles Dobb has offered to Mr. Whalen, for the use of the Mayor's facilities of his airbiplane, which will leave Curtiss Feld 10 a.m. today for Lakehurst. On account of the amount of work still to be done, it is undetermined whether or not Mr.

Whalen and the committee avill be able to leave at that time. 3,000 Police Detailed. Three thousand policemen, half the used in the Lindbergh reception, have been detailed for the celebration and will be under the direction of Chief Inspector William J. Lahey. In the event that Dr.

Eckener decides to fly of the city before going Lakehurst a squadron of nine Army airplanes will leave Mitchel Field to act as an escort. The arrival of the Graf Zeppelin will be broadcast by from a plane carrying Announcer Louis A. Witten who will meet the dirigible at sea. Another description of the great ship's arrival at Lakehurst be radioed over the National Broadcasting Company's network: this same company will go on the air also with the luncheon to be tendered the Graf Zeppelin crew at the ArvertisIng Club at 1:45 p.m. Monday.

The Central Railroad of New Jersey, the only line having a direct train connection with the dirigible hangar at Lakehurst, will have a special train waiting to carry the airship's passengers to New York. Other specials to take sightseers to Lakehurst will leave tomorrow mornIn from 10 o'clock on. President Coolidge will welcome the dirigible's crew at Washington on Thursday. MYSTERY SHROUDS ESTATE LEFT BY AUGUSTA STETSON Christian Science "Rebel" Refused to Make Will, Saying She Would Live Forever. (Special to The Eagle.) Rochester, Oct.

13-Mrs. Augusta Stetson, the leader and rebel of the Christian Science movement, who died here last Friday, at the age of 87, has proved to be as much of a mystery after her passing away as she was during the last years of her life. A little over a year ago Mrs. Stetson announced. very solemnly and speeifcally, that she would never die.

And in her confidence of eternal physical life she had not made vill and would make none. But she died, leaving an estate which may be very large, indeed. She had raised enormous amounts of money, spending millions out of it to present her side of a long controversy with the officials of the "regular" Christian Science. But what the amount of the estate is, or whether she made any formal disposition of it, remains unknown. Maj.

Harold W. Stimpson, her nephew, was the closest to her during the last years of her life. It was at his home that she died. But Major Stimpson declined today to clear up the mystery. TOBIN, SECRETARY 'OF THE DIES IN PLUNGE 'Continued From Page 1.

Lakehurst Station Ready To Hail Air Liner; Experts Laugh at Mishap Fears They Say Damage Reported Can Be Easily Fixed During Flight -Excitement Grips Throngs Awaiting Arrival of Giant Visitor- -Wind May Force Mooring of Craft.

By WILBUR E. ROGERS. (Staff Correspondent Naval Air Station, Lakehurst, at this station were ready tonight to bring her down to land when voyage is ended. There had been a little excitement during the afternoon when reports that the big ship was in trouble filtered into the station. But the officers at Lakehurst, accustomed to "hearing things" about the Los Angeles when she is in the air, took everything with a smile.

Tonight, howover, things had quieted down. There wasn't a man of the station, it appeared, who doubted that the Graf Zeppelin will be sticking her silver nose over these scrubby pine trees tomorrow afternoon There wasn't a man on the station who doubted for a second that Dr. Hugo Eckner would bring the shin down either at the mast or on the ground, and without any difficulty or trouble. Laughs at Rumor. Reports that the port fin of the Zeppelin had been damaged meant nothing to them.

A fin is a horizontal stabilizer on the stern of the big ship and it is built into the side of the craft. Of course something might have happened to it, but the only really serious thing which could have occurred would have been to drop it entirely. That quite evidently did not happen and Commander M. R. Pierce, the executive officer of the Los Angeles, laughed at any such possibility.

He thought that if the Zeppelin had any trouble it was in her rudder. A wire may have broken. But if that is the case it is easy for that to be fixed while th ship is soaring along. Of course, a rudder accident is serious and it would have meant ahat the ship would have slowed up. So the astute Los Angeles officer thought the accident was in the rudder.

Expect Messages Today. The long road up from Lakehurst was dotted with hot-dog stands today, all of them doing a rushing business. Farmers in the vicinity were putting up signs that they park motor cars for a good price. There is certain to be a big crowd here tomorrow. Throngs have already begun to gather, and the whole State has an air of expectancy and excitement.

The radio station here had hoped to get into communication with the big visitor some time during the afternoon, but it failed. Usually its radius is 1,500 miles, and the ship at 5 o'clock was closer than that. But it was apparent that she was not trying to send any messages, although she was being swamped with them herself. During the afternoon Dr. Karl Arnstein, vice president of the year -Zeppelin Company, concern the which is building dirigibles in Ohio and who has helped to construct more than 70 Zeppelins himself, said that he had no doubt at all that the Zeppelin would come in to Lakehurst in perfect safety.

Says Repairs Are Easily Made. He thought, too, that Dr. Eckenor nad charted his course and that he had a time set for his arrival. And, of The Eagle.) N. Oct.

13-Officers and men to greet the Graf Zeppelin and her perilous and history-making said Dr. Arnstein, he will bring his ship to its anchorage at the time he has set Dr. Arnstein, like the officers of the Los Anzeles, laughed over the reported damage to the ship's fin. "One of the advantages of the large rigid airship," he said. "is accessibility of all parts of the ship in fight.

Repairs can easily be made to the damaged part with the speed reported so effectively on the Graf Zeppelin. It is my opinion that it is improbable that any serious damage could have been done to the big Navy fliers and Goodyear-Zeppelin men, American representatives of the German Zeppelin Company, insisted even when first information of damage was received that the Graf Zeppelin was well to care for itself and that a broken fin or so was of small moment. 25-Mile Wind at Field. Navigation officers stated that if the 25 miles an hour wind that swept across the field today continued, it would be impossible to put the ship in the hangar until conditions became more favorable. If it cannot be walked into the hangar on arrival, it was improbable that it would be tied to the mooring mast, Capt.

E. S. Jackson said. He believed the Zeppelin in this case would probably continue the flight until it could be placed alongside the Los Angeles. Customs and Immigration Department inspectors and a surgeon of Public Health Service arrived at the field tonight to board the dirigible the instant she is moored.

The inspector will search vessel and passengers for smuggled merchandise and to ascertain that none is without the passport which would make his entry into this country illegal. The surgeon will examine passengers and crew for contagious diseases and doubtless quarantine the airship the same she were a steamship, If he discovers any contagious disease. Girl Is Robbed of $665 Near Police Headquarters Clara Ursitti, 17, of 300 Broome Manhattan, bookkeeper for the Flowing Bowl Corporation, 47 Rodney Brooklyn, was robbed yesterday morning of $665 of the firm's money by a young man at Spring and Elizabeth she reported to Police Headquarters, which is only a short distance from the scene. The girl said that after drawing the money from the Bank of Manhattan, 42d st. and Madison she put the envelope containing it in her handbag.

Then, as she thought it might rain, went downtown to her home to get an umbrella. Leaving her she started for the subway station at Delancey st. and the Bowery, but when she reached Spring and Elizabeth she said, a young man grabbed her from behind, snatched the handbag and disappeared in crowded Elizabeth st. Waterman Daughter-in-Law, Destitute, Dies of Veronal Camden, N. Oct.

13-A tragic, romance in the family of Frank H. Waterman, fountain pen kin, was pieced together in Watsontown, near here, today, when neighbors Elisha H. Waterman, 30, whose wife, Mrs. Evelyn Audrey Allen Waterman, 29, died here Wednesday of veronal poisoning, as saying that he was the disinherited son of the president of the Waterman Fountain Pen Company, who was defeated for Mayor of New York City in 1925. With their daughter, Audrey, 3, the young couple had been living in Watsontown several months in practically destitute circumstances, it was said, and it is rumored that the wife had unsuccessfully attempted to gain the financial assistance of her father-inlaw since his return from Europe last week.

I HUNT FOR BUILDER WHO BLOCKED CONEY ISLAND AVE. FUTILE Business Men Say Two Weeks' Blockade Due to Ripped Up Road Caused Heavy Losses. For three days fruitless efforts have been made to find Contractor M. J. O'Brien who, according to business in Coney Island ave.

between Park Circle and Caton caused them heavy financial losses by ripping ly the thoroughfare and then deserting the, job for two weeks, leaving the street in an impassible condition. O'Hara's office is listed in the telephone book as Neptune ave. and W. 19th st. There he has a dock, where he receives various materials.

No one there knew where he was or when he would be back. Calls to his house have resulted in information that he yas "not in." Frequent visits to the Coney Island ave. job have failed to find him. He had "just left" or "hadn't arrived. On Wednesday O'Hara's workmen returned to the two impassable blocks between Park Circle and Caton ave.

for the first time in two weeks. There were eight men and a foreman. They proceeded to rip up the Belgian blocks between the trolley tracks on the westerly side of the thoroughfare and throw them in with the other debris. No work was done on Friday because of the holiday. Yesterday morning an additional workman was added, but the gang worked only a half-day.

The Board of Estimate last April authorized the $500,000 needed for widening the avenue by removing the malls. Most of the thoroughfare has been finished and repaved. Protesting business men cannot understand what tthey call the snail-like pace with which the work' in proceeding outside their places. The foreman, who declined to give his name, said he thought three the work might be completed in weeks. SERVICES ARE HELD FOR C.

No vital part of the control mechanism of the Graf Zeppelin is involved in the damage to the port horizontal. The port horizontal is an airfoil, or wing, built on the stern of the ship to give it stability in a vertical plane.

On the starboard side is a similar airfoil or fin. Two other airfoils, at right angles to the port and starboard fins, give the ship stability in the horizontal plane. These fins, in addition, serve the purpose of being a mechanical support for the elevator and horizontal rudders. By presenting a large flat surface to the airstream that flows around the body of the Zeppelin these airfoils prevent the ship from responding to any stray air currents that might tend to shift the ship from a straight course. Helps Control Course.

As the airstream flows parallel to these airfoils th rudders attached to the end of them act directly on a stream of air from which they get, by deflection, a thrust that causes the tail of the ship to swing up or down, or right or left, and thus control its course. The airfoil that comprises the port horizontal is sufficiently thick to permit a member of the crew to enter it from the interior of the ship to make any repairs. No details have been received as to the extent or nature of the damage, but there are no indications that there has been a collapse of any structural parts. The framework on which the airfoil is built is composed of duraluminum latticework girders. These girders have the strength of steel with about one-third of the weight of tha meal and here is ample margin of safety against damage by any but the most severe winds, and those would have to be of a strong, gusty and variable type.

Fabric More Vulnerable. Fabric coverings are used on these airfoils and this covering is much more vulnerable than the metal Any rip or rent in the fabric ZEPPELIN PLANS TO MAKE LANDING THIS AFTERNOON Continued From Page 1. figures had been slightly garbled in transmission. Reported at Bermuda. Dispatches from Hamilton, Bermuda, at first reported the airship had passed over the island at 7:35 p.m., but later declared the island was in doubt late last night whether it had witnessed the passing of the dirigible.

Those who had reported seeing it dimly soon after nightfall and to have seen it drop red and green signal flares as it passed to the northeast were positive in statements. Believe They Saw Airship. However, if the huge bulk had passed across the sky within the range of vision no one was able to discern it clearly enough to satisfy the authorities that it was the airship. Residents of the West End and others on boats off St. George's clung to the impression they had received and were certain that the long-looked-for arrival had occurred.

At 9:30 last night. Eastern standard time, naval radio stations along the Atlantic coast intercepted a message from the Zeppelin saying she was progressing satisfactorily. The stations did not pick up the entire message and failed to get the location of the vessel. There were no further details. Informed by the Associated Press thada the tonight, Zeppelin naval passed officers over said Ber- she had approximately 720 miles to travel by air line to Lakehurst.

May Come to I. Sound. Officers expected her to reduce her speed west of the Bermudas because of trade winds, which are not favorable in that section at this time of the year. They expected the ship to take either of two courses from Bermuda, one heading toward Cape Hatteras and then up the coast to Lakehurst and another toward Long Island Sound, down to New York City and then to Lakehurst. The officers said she would buck the winds before turning inshore by going the northern route or buck them after turning inshore by the southern route.

Even if she arrives before dawn, they said, she would probably hover above the Lakehurst station until daylight before attempting to make a landing. If the weather is unusually rough she probably will spend several hours over the station before dropping her landing lines. The Weather Forecasts. In a message to Lieutenant Commander Rosendahl, aboard the Graf Zeppelin, the Navy Department said yesterday that the weather along the Bermudas and up the Atlantic coast to New York was favorable then, but that there would be shifts in the wind to a northerly direction and that the weather would be rainy and cloudy over the New York region within a few hours. At Hamilton, Bermuda, the forecasts for yesterday and today were fair with a light northeast wind.

Message From Airship. A message sent by the airship at 2:45 p.m., yesterday and intercepted by United States naval radio stations said that it was then 1,100 miles from Lakehurst. If the time given in the message was Eastern Standard Time and thedirigible continued to make an average of 60 miles an hour, it was stated that might arrive as early as 9 a.m. The airship had traveled 4.112 her starting point at Friedrichshafen in 61 hours, an average speed of slightly more than 67 miles an hour. During this last sea leg of her long flight, fairly frequent radio communication was maintained with the dirigible by naval and commercial land stations, sometimes assisted by ship relays.

Repairs Delay Zeppelin. The speed of the Graf Zeppelin was materially reduced for several hours yesterday morning by torn fabric port stabilizer fin. The the effected, resumed cruising crew repairs, however, and speed. For a little time yesterday the world was given a thrill as word came from the air liner with its 20 passengers indicating that she might require assistance, but reassuring news followed quickly. At 2:80 o'clock yesterday morning, Eastern Standard time, the Graf Zeppelin was approximately 1,800 miles due east of the Bermudas.

She had swept 250 miles south of the Azores in a wide loop from Madeira, taking advantage of more favorable winds over that course. Rosendahl Appeals for Aid. Hour after hour she sped on to the west until at 6:25 o'clock yesterday morning, Eastern Standard time, she sent the word that her port horizontal, used as stabilizer, was damaged. She was making but 35 knots. With this news came a request that a surface vessel proceed along her course and stand by.

The ship was then about 1,800 miles due east of Charleston, S. C. The message was signed by Lt. Com. Charles E.

Rosendahl; commander of the American dirigible Los Angeles and a guest of Dr. Hugo Eckener, commander of the Graf Zeppelin. Later, however, the Navy Department received word from the Zeppelin that repairs had been made and Mae Murray 'Gives Ordered Held for Trial Mae Murray. Santa Monica, Oct. 13 (P)-Mae Murray, lithe star of the films and stage, will go on trial here Oct.

23 on a charge of forcibly entering the Santa Monica home of Jack Donovan, Hollywood architect. A 10-minute hearing before Judge C. A. Spencer, after Miss Murray had surrendered to authorities, resulted in her being held here for trial. Miss Murray recently obtained from Donovan $32,000 judgment in civil court for alleged misrepresentation by the architect-actor of furnishings in 2 house purchased by the actress.

She is scheduled to go before the Grand Jury next Monday in an investigation by that body of charges of suspicion of perjury with preferred testimony by Donovan in connection given by her during the civil trial. that the dirigible was proceeding at 50 knots on a course directly toward Lakehurst, where the Navy Depart-ment was making extensive preparations to receive her. Washington Sends Forecast. This message stated that the airship anticipated no need for the surface vessel previously asked for. A weather synopsis was requested, as well as a forecast along her present course.

This information was immediately forwarded by Washington. The forecast said that a direct course to Lakehurst would bring the ship into trade winds, while a more southerly route would give her more favorable wind conditions. In view of this, it was stated, there was a possibility that the ship might again veer southward before turning north to skirt the south Atlantic coast of the United States. Hear Winds Caused Damage. Advices from Friedrichshafen, Germany, the home port of the air liner, said it was understood that the port horizontal had been damaged by a sudden vertical gust of wind.

Although reassuring word had come through from the Zeppelin, the Navy Department ordered the light cruisers stationed at Hampton roads and a squadron of destroyers at Charleston, S. to be ready to leave immediately in case they should be needed at any time: Text of Rosendahl Message. Two messages from the Zeppelin were made public simultaneously by the Navy Department. Commander Rosendahl's message was relayed via Louisburg, Nova Scotia, and possibly other points before being received here. It read: "Time, 11:25 G.

M. T. (6:25 Eastern standard time.) Position Zeppelin, latitude, 32 north; longitude, 42 west. Course for Cape Hatteras half speed, about 35 knots air speed, account damage to cover of port horizontal. Effecting repairs as conditions permit.

Request surface vessel proceed along our course and stand by. Request weather conditions to westward. In rain squalls at present. ROSENDAHL." Other Zeppelin Message. The other message, received at 11:45 a.m., signed "Graf Zeppeun," arriving via Chatham, and directed to the Navy Department, read: "Proceeding reduced air speed and 50 knots ground speed.

Course for Lakehurst. Position, 33 north, 45 west at 4:30 G. M. T. (9:30 Eastern standard time.) Effected limited repairs.

At present anticipate no need for surface vessel. Request, weather synopsis and forecast present course." The Navy Department received a radiogram from the Graf Zeppelin at 11:45 a.m. (Eastern standard time) yesterday stating that the passage was rough. Phenomenal Speed. Naval officers calculated that the Zeppelin had increased her speed to the almost phenomenal rate of 84 knots between her 9:30 a.m.

position yesterday of latitude 33 north and iongitude 45 west, when she was approximately 1,650 nautical miles due east of Charleston, S. to the time when a message was intercepted at 2:45 p.m. yesterday saying she was 1,100 miles from Lakehurst. It was pointed out, however, that the calculation was subject to inaccuracy due to the charts used. While the dirigible's position was not given in the intercepted message, the officers pointed out that if she continued on a direct course to Lakehurst her position would have been about latiture 34 north and longitude 54 west.

It was estimated that if she continued at such a terrific speed, which was considered doubtful, the airship would probably arrive at Lakehurst early this morning. The Radio Corporation of America reported yesterday afternoon that 15 had been making good contact with the Graf Zeppelin in receiving commercial Greenland Fliers Arrive In Halifax on Way Home Halifax. N.

Alter Obregon Slaying Charge; Drop Conspiracy Accusation Mexico City, Oct. 13 (AP)-The charge of conspiracy against Jose de Leon-Toral, Mother Superior Concepcion Acevedo de la Lata and 11 others held in connection with the assassination of Gen. Alvaro Obregon was today ordered withdrawn by the Superior Court of the Federal District. Three of the minor defendants were released by the same finding. The 13 who were held now face charges as individuals and not for "association against person and property." Those released were Miss Piedad Rangel, Miss Margarita Pacheco and Rafael Enriques Vidal.

The Court EXPECT TAX BOARD TO QUIZ CONNOLLY ON HIS CASH DEALS Wants: to Kno. if Expenditures Represent Income. The story of Maurice E. Connolly's big supply of cash, of which he dispensed about $150,000 in $1,000 bills for real estate, and loans to his pals between 1925 and 1927, that held the jury trying the resigned Boro President of Queens spellbound, is also a topic of live interest for Federal income tax authorities, The Eagle learned last night. Although these authorities declined to discuss the revelations of "Cash and Carry" Connolly publicly, it was learned that the former Queens official will probably be haled before the income tax collectors and asked whether the flood of paper money he unloosened on the Queens countryside around 1926 represented his income for that year.

Meanwhile the case of Connolly and his codefendant and erstwhile sewer design engineer, Frederick Seely, is scheduled to go tomorrow or Tuesday to the jury that has been trying the pair the last three weeks in Long Island City. The revival of the Federal sewer scandal cases is in conformity ment's interest in the $29,500,000 with the activity of the income-tax people since the sewer mess first began to be aired. The revelations of the millions in pipe profits that flowed into the pockets the late John M. Phillips, sewer pipe, baron, were followed by Federal men making a claim of $1,200,000 on the Queens monopolist's estate. Phillips wa salso under indictment as an income tax defaulter at the time of his death.

Then the Government reached further into the clique of the sewer satellites, and now "Pete" Campbell and "Andy" Zorn, two of Phillips' cronies, and Clifford B. Moore. Connolly's consulting engineer, are awaittrial in the Brooklyn Federal Court on charges of having bilked the Government in their income tax returns. Pursued a "Hush" Policy, Until the actual indictments were handed down and liens attached in these cases, the Federal authorities pursued a "hush hush" policy in the tax matters. That Connolly's income tax returns for the years that Phillips' pipe business was riding high, during 1924 to 1927, have been checked over is known, but there has been no indication of what action, if any, the Government is planning.

The "cash and carry" picture of Connolly, drawn from more than A dozen witnesses placed on the stand by Prosecutor Emory R. Buckner, has been in the possession of the Federal men for some tihe. It is understood to have a definite connection with the activity of several operatives under Hugh McCuillen, chief intelligence officer of the Department of Revenue, in Queens during the past two for three months. There is no disposition on the part of members of Buckner's staff to believe that the $150,000 cash deals of the ex-Boro President that have been dug up by any means cover all of the Connolly currency transactions around 1926. One of the mysteries of the Long Island City trial was the failure of Connolly, on the witness stand and in his own defense, to make an counting for his strictly cash deals which Buckner endeavored to link up with the Phillips sewer pipe "gold mine." Sewer Trial Counsel Prepare Summations: For Delivery Tomorrow Opposing counsel spent yesterday studying the testimony and evidence of the 15 days of the Connolly-Seely trial and whipping their summations into shape for delivery to the jury tomorrow.

The defense will open first, with Dana Wallace going to the bat for Seely. Wallace so far has "highhatted" the case made by the State against his defendant -he didn't bother putting in any defense and it isn't believed his oration will take long. He is expected to picture the sewer as an under-dog, hounded by the State. The high spot for the defense, of course, will be Max Steuer's efforts for Connolly, who has borne the brunt of the State's attack. It is the results that Steuer has attained as a pleader that brings him his fee of $1,500 or thereabouts a day.

He will probably portray Connolly as a much harassed official imposed uvon by the pipe king Phillips and the sewer ring contractors. Justice Tompkins is known as a stiff sentencer, and it is accepted. that if the jury brings in a verdict of guilty Connolly will draw close to the maximum of one year in the Penitentiary and $2,500 fine. Buckner's demand for convictions will probably come in the afternoon. His presentation is expected to be one of his well-rounded efforts in his characteristic way of presenting the highly technical case with clarity and force.

Justice Tompkins will charge the jury and hand the case over to it either late tomorrow or Tuesday morning, depending on the time taken by the summations. would quickly be enlarged due to the swift rush of air over its surface. Such damage, however, is easily repaired from within if the ship is stopped. A broken flying wire or controi wire leading from the elevator rudder, through the stabilizer airfoil, could easily cause the fabric to rip and produce a conditio nthat looks worse than it is. It is not a difficult job, however, for a member of the crew to reach any of these control wires and repair them.

An axial corridor reaches from the nose to the stern of the ship on the level in which these stabilizers are located, and from it lateral passageways lead to the sides of the ship. Through these access can be had to any part of the outer skin of the ship. No Serious Inconvenience. Even with one elevator rudder gone entirely it would still be possible to manoeuver the ship. The starboard rudder would still be available.
