Hylan Repeati Charge Judge Hylan made public last night a telegram he said he had sent to Governor Lehman, protesting against the treatment accorded his petitions. He repeated his charges that petition circulators had bean drugged and signers had been Intimidated by troopers, adding: "We are informed that the petitions were surreptitiously removed from the office of Edward J. Flynn, your Secretary of 8tate." Commenting on the disputed Sul llvan County signatures, he said he had two men out loking for the man who handled the petitions, but they had not found him.

"I suppose they spirited him away," he said. Meanwhile, the beting in Brooklyn political circles was that the Hylan petitions were sure to be thrown out. It was pointed out that up-State voters still have two day to register, next Friday and Saturday, and that there is plenty of. time left to induce Hylan signatories to refrain from registering and thus render their signatures invalid. London Guests Are Able to See Old Roman City Visitors to London this Fall may bccohie acquainted with a historic phase of the city practically unknown to the present generation and pertaining to a district seldom visited by strangers.

In the All Hallows Church, close to the Tower of London, and now open to the public, is the newly-completed great model of "Roman London" as it existed in the early part of the Fourth Century. The total distance around this venerable section is a little more than three miles, but a whole day may be profitably set aside for it. "The trip is full of interest and the church model vividly shows the Roman landmarks mingling with modern London," says Victor A. Bennett of the American Express Company, "and with the aid of a little imagination a walk around the walls of Londinium will provide tourists memories of an ancient age that may last a lifetime." The original city walls enclosed an area of some 350 acres, which approximately cover a square mile. The six gates of entry from the surrounding "country" were Aldgate, Bishopsgate, Cripolegate.

Alders-gate, Newgate and Ludgate. The tour of Londinium may begin with the Undercroft of the church itself, where a portion of the floor of a Roman shop dating back to the time of Boadicea, in the middle of the First Century, is underneath the edifice. Leaving the church, the first point of interest is "Aid-gate," which may be reached by the way of the Mirories. a famed street Just outside the original wall, where a tablet denotes the actual size of the gate. A few yards west la the famous Aldgate Pump, and where the Roman thoroughfare extended to Colchester.

Passing through Duke St. and Camomile St. is the "Bishopsgate," through which visitors from York and Lincoln entered London. Beyond Is' the, London Wall, where portions of the original Roman wall are still In existence and are evidenced until Crlpplegate Building is reached, which marks John K. Hem-ken Named President; Chief Justice, Treasury and War Secretaries as Trustees Planned English Chanel Tunnels Fantastic dreams of a rBooklyn inventor back in the war-mad days of 1927, when he expected to build four tunnels under the English channel, were brought to light yes-trday from between the lines of his will, offered for probate with Surrogate Wingate.

greatest ovation they have known since they from 'over there." returned Prior to the parade the veterans listened to stirring aDDeals for Dre-! paredness from wartime leaders at the convention session in the Hotel St, George. This' was followed by an informal luncheon at the hotel for the chairman of the various convention committees at which Major Generals John F. O'Ryan and Dennis E. Nolr and Brigadier General George A. Wingate, Surrogate of Kings County, were among the guests of honor.

Last night more than 3,000 veterans, members of their families and friends attended a dinner-dance in the grand ballroom of the hotel. The convention was to wind up this morning with a boat ride around Manhattan Island. Colorful Parade The parade was one of the most colorful peacetime demonstrations staged by the veterans of the fighting 27th Division and marked the high spot of the eighth biennial convention of the 27th Division Association of the World War, held for the first time in Brooklyn since the association was organized, mobilizing point at Grand Army Plaza the veterans marched, thence through Pacific St. and on to Bond St. and Livingston where they were reviewed from a gaily bedecked stand erected in front of the Supreme Court building by Governor Lehman and their wartime commander, Major General O'Ryan.

On the Reviewing Stand With the Governor in the reviewing stand were members of his military staff as well as Major General Nolan, commander of the Second Corps Area; Surrogate Wingate and Col. Walter of the 71st Infantry. On the Governor's staff were Col. William A. Taylor and Col.

Frank C. Vincent of the 106th Infantry, Brooklyn. Others in the stand included Peter J. White, president of the 77th Division; Maj. Reginald Field, commander of the 1st District, American Legion, and Capt.

Abraham J. Rosenblum, New York County commander of the American Legion. On either side of the Governor in the stand was his guard of honor including members of the 14th Infantry Regiment, the 71st Infantry Regiment and the 102d Engineers. Wartime Formation The 27th Division veterans paraded in wartime formation, the various units marching in the following order: 105th, 106th, 107th and 108th Infantry; 102d Engineers, 104th, 105th and 106th Machine Gun Batallion; 104th, 105th and 106th Field Artillery; 102d Supply Train and 102d Ammunition Train. Up at the front of the line was the drum and bugle corps of the Sons of Veterans of the Sheridan Post, American Legion, all decked out in orange uniforms with white stripes, and behind them came the 106th Infantry, the 14th Infantry, the 245th Coast Artillery and the 27th Division Train.

2,000 in Line There were more than 2,000 in all in the line of march including the 27th Division veterans and the National Guard units. Deputy Chief Inspector Edward A. Bracken, commander of the uniformed police force of Brooklyn, paced the parade at the head of a mounted police escort. A detail of 250 patrolmen were lined along the parade rout.e. The convention session at the St.

George was marked by an address to the veterans by Major General Nolan who stressed the necessity of preparedness and the need of educating the American public to the vital part played by the United States forces in the World War. "Some Americans believe ve were just the straw that broke tlie camel's back," he said. "Various women's clubs have been misled as to the facts on preparedness and the significant 1 important part it should play in a welfare." General Nolan emphasized the fact that well-prepared nations are seldom attacked. He declared that the better prepared a nation is to defend Itself, the greater the hazards for an enemy and the smaller the chance of war. He cited the mal scramble In this country in 1917 to get into condition to fight and said that preparedness now would eliminate the necessity of another such titanic effort to create a fighting force.

"Very little credit has been given the United States for what it accomplished in the late war," he said. "Americans ought to get the idea out of their heads that we were Just I I Pact and Propose Own Idea of Sea Protection London. Oct. 13 (Pi Japan will serve advance notice that it intends to denounce the Washington Treatey later this year and will reveal Its proposals for a new agreement to replace that treaty when tri-power naval conversations between American, British and Japanese representatives open here probably next Thursday. Ambassador Tsuneo Matsudaira and Rear Admiral Isoroku Yama-moto are expected to announce that Japan wishes the Washington pact to end Dec.

31, 1936, and will propose a new scheme for naval regulation drawn on the following bases: i Parity in principle among the three main powers. A global tonnage arrangement to replace the 5 53 ratio now in force, and abolition of the principle of ratio. Reduction, looking toward eventual abolition of "of fensive" ships, meaning big battleships and aircraft carriers; with Great Britain and the United tSates making the chief sacrifices. Unlimited authority for each of the three powers to build additional "defense ships" each may need, including cruisers and submarines.

at Hancock St, Sterling 3-7700 By SCIENCE SERVICE Special to The Eagle Political tug of war over the buried treasures of coal in the Saar Territory is being resumed. The 15 years of post-war possession of the mines awarded to France are almost up. The next step, according to the Treaty of Versailles, calls for the people of the Saar valley to choose. Will they vote next January to annex themselves to France, return to Germany, or remain under League of Nations control? Among the 800,000 people of the Saar valley, Germans far outnumber the French. On the other hand, the Germans now include refugees.

Jewish and otherwise, who have fled from Nazi Germany. Influence of these refugees is problematical. Both contending nations are grimly anxious to win control of the small district squeezed between them. If Germany wins the plebiscite, she will still be expected to repurcha.se the all-important coal mines, which may be done under treaty terms. But while politicians and statesmen may worry and grow bitter over the Saar and its future, geographers take a calmer and reassuring view.

Discussing the Saar problem in the Geographical Review, Dr. Hubert A. Bauer, former professor at the New River State College, Montgomery, W. concludes: "When viewed in the light of geographical relations, the political issue loses some of its acridity. Ultimately the true boundaries of a borderland area such as the Saar Territory are controlled by wise industrial planning rather than by shrewd political bargaining.

"The coal industry of the Saar Territory faces three problems of equal magnitude the problem of retaining its present market in France, that of recovering its lost market in Germany, and, closely as sociated with this, the problem of quick rationalization. Their solution may be anticipated, once the Saar is restored to a regularized economic life." Lehman Refuses Relief Session Governor Lehman yesterday refused the demand of the United Action Conference on Work, Relief and Unemployment that he call a special session of the Lsgislature to appropriate $200,000,000 for Winter relief. He told a committee of five representing the conference, when they called on him at the State Building, 80 Centre that the regular session would deal with this problem. Meanwhile, 50 associates of the five conferees picketed the building, displaying placards demanding that the Governor open the armories in Albany for unemployed who will organize a hunger march on the capital on Oct. 27 to repeat their plea for immediate legislative action.

They are seeking, besides increased relief, a moratorium on all small home foreclosures and evictions and an unemployment insurance bill similar to legislation under consideration by the Federal Administration. HIGH WATER Hich Water (I Low Water. A.M. I P.M. llA.M.

Mrs. Gurnee Wins $20,000 for Care Of Aged Couple Reversing a decision by Supreme Court Justice Meier Steinbrink, the Appellate Division yesterday awarded a judgment in favor of Mrs. Bertha Gurnee for $20,000 as part payment for the care and attention she gave to Dr. Abraham H.

Quick and his wife, Martha, in the last years of their lives at 56 7th Ave. Mrs. Gurnee, who was related to the Quicks, at their request left her home in Madison, in 1926 and conducted the 7th Ave. household and cared for the husband and wife, who were in their nineties. She claimed she was promised a "remembrance." Mrs.

Quick left her out of th will and she threatened suit. She settled this for $10,000 and also released Dr. Quick's estate, because, the Appellate Division declared, the lawyers failed to disclose that she had been named for $30,000 in the doctor's will. The decision is by Justices Lazansky, Young, Kapper, Carswell and Tompkins. Percy Rockefeller Wills Estate to Widow, 5 Children Greenwich.

Willie Clarkson London, Oct. 13 (P) Willie Clark-son, foremost theatrical costumer, died today at the age of 73. His name had appeared in every theatrical production of note here for half a century. Clarkson assisted the perpetrators of two of the greatest hoaxes in this century when a bogus Sultan of Zanzibar was given a civic welcome at Cambridge while the real Sultan was in London. The same conspirators, arrayed as Abyssinian dignitaries, visited a battleship and received a most ceremonious reception.

University men were behind the business. The physician is now equipped with an armory of weapons to confer Immunity against many diseases and he is increasingly conquering disease by working with nature to stimulate the natural defenses of the body, Dr. Badock said. Physicians generally are agreed that their services are often sought insufficiently early, when the disease has already made itself felt and is perhaps somewhat advanced, and when a much earlier consultation would have made a complete cure more possible. One solution of the problem which Is favored by physicians and health authorities both in England and America, although Dr.

Badock did not specifically mention it, is the system of yearly examinations or birthday health examinations as they are sometimes called. having predeceased her totalld Her nephew, County Court Judge Alonzo G.

The inventor, who developed several important inventions, including a new process for making stel was John Hencken, who died May 2 at the age of 60 at his home, 777 Eastern Parkway.

His will, drawn up June 24. 1917. named the President of the United States, the Chief Justice of the United States, the Secretary of the Treasury and the Secretary of War, among the 10 trustes of the estate. It disposes with some abandon of what the testator apparently expected to be a vast fortune. Hencken Died Poor Actually, according to an affidavit filed by a friend, Mrs.

Marie E. R. Suttie 0f 850 St. Marks who asks to be made executrix of the estate, the only assets are six patent rights and $130 worth of personal property. Mrs.

Suttie bases her application on the fact that she is the chief creditor of the estate, having lent Mr. Hencken $25,000 to develop his inventions, according to her attorney, John Francis Schwieters of 233 Broadway, Manhattan. The surviving next of kin are nephews and nieces. Mrs. Suttie claims they have neglected or refused to apply for letters testamentary 0r administration.

Provided for Trustees' Pay The Government officials to serve as trustees included those in office in 1917 and those in office at the time of Mr. Hencken's death, if they had held office for more than three years. Thus the only ones eligible would be Supreme Court Justice Charles Evans Hughes, former Secretary of the Treasury William Gibbs McAdoo and former Secretary of War Newton D. Baker. Mr.

Schweiters said he was sure all three would renounce their right to serve. The will provided that each would receive an annual salary equal to that paid by the Government during his life time. Six other trustees were named to be paid amounts ranging from to $150,000 a year for their services. Mrs. Suttie was named to get the latter amount.

The rest of the estate was left to Mrs. Suttie to "give to my relatives and friends the su mof $100,000 each" and the balance "to be used to further my highway plan of free transportation throughout the world." During the war Mr. Hencken was in frequent conference with Lord Balfour on the tunnel matter and, according to Mr. Schweiters, the project probably would have gone through if the war had not ended when It did.
