THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK, FRIDAY, MARCH 23, 1923. HUNTS CLUB TO FORCE PASSAGE OF TRANSIT BILL Hirshfield in Albany Trails Business Connections of Lawmakers. (Special by Eagle Staff Come Correspondent) Albany, March 23-Tammany 18 planning to deal severely with the Republican leaders and Republican Assemblymen if Mayor Hylan's pubHe utility legislation is killed, and it was learned today that Davie Hirshfeld's repeated visits the Capitol were for the purpose of keeping his on the outlook the Mayor's pet bills. It was intimated in some ooh quarters today that a certain company with which one of the foremost legislators is connected might be affected if the Mayor's program is held up.

This company has in the past brought upon itself the displeasure of the Board of Health and was forbidden to ship its product into New York. This was made known today by one who is very close to the Hylan Administration. Commissioner Hirshficid, it is reported, has been making an investigation. Hylan Seeks Phone Control. Mayor Hylan is planning to come here next week to attend the hearing on the bill that would create a public utilities department New York City, with control over gus, electricity and all other public utilities with the exception of transit.

The Mayor even wants control of telephones, but Goverhor Smith thinks that these had better remain under the jurisdiction of a State commission. The G. O. P. legislators in the Assembly have fallen into a peculiar situation in connection with the Avecent fare.

The bill making this rate universal throughout the State has been on the list of bills doomed. Since it insisted. however, that a -cent fare clause is written into the New York City portation Act, the legislators do not see how they can Ax a nickel rate in New York and not elsewhere. There may be an amendment to the bill providing that the Public Service Commission shall Ax the in the smaller cities where the trolley companies are admittedly run at a loss on a five-cent fare. I More Bills to Be Killed.

Before Angora began governing Constantinople, the Allies kept the ed on German business in Turkey, but now Teuton goods are beginning to All the Turkish stores.

from this limited success, which is due to the exchange, allowing Germans to undersell the Allies, the Germans making much headway, as Germany's political prestige is gone and there is much anti-German feeling among the Turks. The Allies not yet allowed Germany to resume diplomatic relations with Turkey.

Ledger; Copyright, 1923.) Paris, March 23-An anatomical discovery which bears an important reltion to the temperament and charter of man was reported today Dr. Maingot as the result of years of observation and study of hospital cases. The scientist claims to have determined the function of the transverse muscle of the diaphragm cial which, according to numerous offgoverns the whole lifeeven more influential than the work of the 2humany body, being function of the cerebral equipment. The muscle lies directly at the base of the diaphragm, upon which rests the breathing apparatus and heart, dominal separating cavity.

them Observation from of the that ab. muscle by the use, of the phrenoscope indicates tendencies which follow a person throughout his entire life and which it is impossible to I change, according to Dr. Maingot. He says there are no two persons In the world with similar movements of the diaphragm, and that the entire secret of the effect of the muscle is revealed in the action of breathing. Reveals Character of Infant.

Dr. Maingot declares further, that observations of this region in a new born child absolutely give an index to its character; that the Arat movementa indicate the manner in which the child will combat various obstacles in life or yield to adverse inQuences. "The body. is naturally the sub. stance soul." he says, "and if we study any part of a human being it is not unreasonable to and skill, we can determine the char- sume that with de peychology acter, instincts and reactions hiwch will follow person throgh lifewhether he will lean toward science or literature; whether he will develop into a man of law and order or of crime.

"What was necessary was to And organ in the body which func. tioned as naturally and freely as the expressive gestures of an infant just born. The radioscope permitted a study of the movements of breathing which are the most simple and natural. I studies them and compared them for 20 years, thus establishing the rules of the phrenoscope." If part of the activity is wasted in a vain eyort to stop--that is, if at the end of expiration the diaphragm remains contracted, it is a sign of stubbornness. If the expiration is jerky and there are indications of renewed respiration it shows the specimen is slow to abandon projects and reflecta often on an enterprise before it 18 completed.

Another subject discussed is one whose breathing is shown by the instrument to be irregular. Such irregular movements, with curious inspirations, indicate a common characteristic of the criminal type. PETER C. HEWITT'S HEIRS OPEN FIGHT AGAINST DAUGHTER Brothers and Sisters, in Court Action, Deny That He Left Any Issue. The brothers and sisters of the late Peter Cooper Hewitt, son of Abram S.

Hewitt and grandson of Peter Cooper, in papers submitted to the Appellate Division in Manhattan today declare that Peter Cooper Hewitt died without issue. Mr. Hewitt bequeathed his residuary estate to Maryon J. Hewitt, who had been his wife, and Ann Cooper Hewitt, her daughter. Ann Cooper Hewitt, according to herself and her mother, is Peter Cooper Hewitt's only surviving issue.

Maryon J. Hewitt, widow of the late Peter Cooper Hewitt, is now Baroness D'Erlanger. Ann Cooper Hewitt's name was mentioned in probate proceedings in New Jersey after Mr. Hewitt's death. She is said to be an adopted daughter of Mr.

Hewitt. hence the controversy as to her status under the provisions of the Peter Cooper trust. Peter Cooper Hewitt's will disposed of his inheritance from his mother, of one-sixth of a trust, which Peter Cooper established for her benefit. The value the one-sixth interest does not appear in the papers before the Court, which set forth that after stated sum" has been paid annually to Maryon J. Hewitt the remainder of the income, to a sum not exceding $30,000 per annum, is to be paid to Ann Cooper Hewitt.

"MARSHALL" FACES ANOTHER GRILLING IN KEENAN MURDER The mysterious "John Marshall," Dorothy Keenan's millionaire gel," whose real identity has been closely guarded by Assistant District Attorney Ferdinand Pecora, will be questioned again, possibly today, by Mr. Pecora. New and apparently reliable information regarding a blackmail plot which was being prepared by certain men who were counting Keenan as the decoy and "Marshall" as the victim was given verbally last right to Mr. Pecora by a person whose name was not disclosed. Before placing any reliance on it, though, he will question about other incidents recounted to him, in order to test the informant's veracity.

He called Neilson Olcott. attor. ney for "Mr. Marshall." and asked both "Marshall" and his secretary. "Wilson." to call.

Mr. Olcott said he would send them to the Criminal Courts Building as soon as he could get in touch with his clients. Capt. Arthur Carey and Inspector John Coughlin will be present during the interview. When Mr.

Pecora reached his office today there were a number of letters on his desk, one from a woman in Brooklyn and the rest from different parts of the country. taking him severely to task and accusing him of showing special consideration to "Marshall "I want it understood," said Mr. Pecora, "that Mr. Marshall received no more consideration than I would have extended to the humblest citizen under the same circumstances. His appearance at this office was not conditioned on any promise that his name would be kept secret.

He told his story with the clear understanding that should any contingency arise which made it necessary, his name would be revealed, and if in to my judgment it becomes necessary reveal it I shall not hesitate to do I FORD BUYS MINES TO SOLVE NATION'S FUEL PROBLEMS Will Supply Homes as Well as Industries "by Using Every Piece of Coal Twice." (By the Associated Press.) Detroit, March 23-Offcial confirmation today at the offices of Henry Ford at Dearborn that the motorcar manufacturer had purchased 120.000 acres of undeveloped coal land in Kentucky, coupled with the statement that Mr. Ford intended to solve the coutry's coal problems "by using every piece of coal twice." By purchase of the property, it was officially announced at the Ford offices, Mr. Ford comes into possession of a vast tract of virgin coal lands with a reserve coal supply of 500.000.000 tons. This property, aded to other coal lands previously purchased, brings the total number of acres of such land owned by the manufacturer to 165,000. From these holdings, Mr.

Ford hopes that within a year will come sufficient coal to supply all his factories in every part of the country, all the factories and mills manufacturing various products for his own concerns, as many of the industries in this district as care to buy coal from him, and have left fuel suffi. cient to supply a domestic demand of the countrthe Mr. Ford, it was announced, will ask all industrial users of his coal to install furnaces that will remove only the gas and similar substances, leaving a fuel unimpaired for mestic purposes. The coal, after this process, would be sold to heat the homes of hundreds of thousands of workers throughout the country. The fuel remaining after the gas had been taken out would be even more valuable for home heating purposes that it was before, it was explained.

URUGUAY WILL NOT PRESS ITS PLAN FOR AMERICAN LEAGUE Majority of Pan-American Conference Delegates Are Opposed to It.

Santiago, Chile, March 23 (By the the Associated Press) -With the arrival last night of the Uruguayan delegation, it became generally known that Uruguay is not disposed to press upon the Pan-American Conference, which opens here on Sunday, its scheme for a league of American nations.

NO RUM-RUNNING, YELLOWLEY CLAIMS E. C. Yellowley, Acting State Prohibition Director, again took today with. U. S.

Coast Guard officials other marine observers who have reported widespread rumrunning activities along the Atlantic Coast, asserting that the reported spring drive of liquor smugglers was all a myth, put out by bootleggers for "propaganda" purposes. He also took issue with R. Q. Merrick, his zone enforcement chief, who had told the Associated Press the State Enforcement officers were "practically helpless" and were relying on Customs and Coast Guard officials to put an end to marine rumrunning. Asked as to the truth of reports that the Government was providing six tugs and a mosquito fleet to operate against runners along the coast, Mr.

Yellowley said: "We have not even asked the Government for more ships to combat. the activities of the so-called rum armada. I can get along very well with what I have at my disposal now. "The Government has the entire Atlantic Coast from Key West to Maine efficiently paroled and, while there are sporadic attempts at smuggling liquor, there is no truth whatever in the alarmist reports that huge quantities liquor are being landed on the Long Island coast in the vicinity of Sage Harbor or at Biock Island, thence to be transferred across the Sound to New London, Newport or Providence. We are watching every foot of that territory and if there is a trunk line of boozeladen autos running into New York from Montauk Point it is via some secret subway.

large proportion of the SOcalled smuggled liquor that is being peddled by bootleggers is manufactured in some out-of-the-way inland point. It is made out of industrial alcohol, colored with prune juice."

Silver. meth scholastic story of John football Field star, and for- the stolen bicycle, that stirred the Erasmus Hall High School student body in the fall of 1917, was told today before Justice Harry E.

Lewis in Supreme Court, where Field is asking a jury to award him $100,000 damages in his suit against Harry C. Silver, of 19 Parade whom he accuses having him arrested and imof prisoned without just cause. John, who is now 20. and lives at 89 Schermerhorn the jury that one day in October, 1917, he went to the grounds at the park to play football, and laid his bicycle on the ground. Young Douglas Silver laid claim to the bicycle.

There was some fist play when a number of boys rallied to Douglas Silver's assistance. Outnumbered, John hopped on the disputed bicycle and rode away. Several days later Douglas Silver and his father, Harry C. Silver, went to Erasmus Hall and after John WAS called from the campus and questioned by Principal Low, teachers and police detectives, who came with the Silvers, he was arrested, taken to the station house and searched, and "booked" on a charge of larceny. He was later released after he had shown by the testimony of some other boys that he bought the bicycle innocently from anotner boy.

John told the jury that in the principal's offce in school, that day, Mr. Silver declined to listen to any explanation and expressed the opinion of guilt "in view of the circumatances under which he was caught." John told how he was put in a dirty, foul-smelling cell along with a man held for robbery. Mr. Silver in his defense said he had nothing to do with John's arrest, which was caused, he alleges, by his son, Douglas, or Principal Low. He also alleges in his answer that there was justiflable cause for having John arrested, as the bicycle which belonged to Douglas had been stolen from his home, and was found by detectives in John's home.

PHYSICIANS HAVE CONFIDENCE IN NEW PNEUMONIA CURE See Wonderful Advancement in Diathermic Method -Electricity Used. The possibility that a new and powerful agency for combating the placed ravages at of the pneumonia disposal of has medical been science through the application of an electrical principle known as diathermics was receiving the grave: est consideration today by leading Brooklyn physicians who were inclined to place much more credence in the method than usually is corded new medical developments of such a revolutionary character. Briefly the method consists in the introduction of a carefully controlled electrical current into the lungs, thereby generating a high internal temperature which, according to the theory, dissolves the congestion and so removes the deadly root of the disease.

Already it has been demonstrated with success in the United States Marine Hospital on Staten Island and in St. Mary's Hospital, Hoboken, according to physiclans at both institutions. Not one patient WAS lost where the treatI ment was used, it is said. The dlathermic method is the discovery of Dr. Harry E.

Stewart of Yale, instructor in the department of physio-therapy and widely known as a coach and leader in athletics. Dr. Stewart introduced his method at the Marine Hospital through the operation of Dr. C. H.

Lavinder, of the Public Health Department. of ten initial cases treated all recovered. Subsequently facilities for the treatment were installed at St. Mary's in Hoboken by Dr. H.

V. Broeser and other private physicians, including Dr. R. B. Nattrass and Dr.

Joseph Londrigan, also equipped themselves. Dr. Glentworth R. Butler, senior physician at the Brooklyn and Methodist Episcopal Hospitals, and one of the best-known physicians of Brooklyn, said today that apparently the method deserved the most careful investigation by the medical fraternity, and that he considered it altogether probable that local hospitals would equip themselves with apparatus for this purpose. "It is plain that the treatment still is in its experimental stage," said Dr.

Butler, "but on its face it would appear to hold promise. Assuredly, it can do no harm, and it may prove a wonderfud agency for combating pneumonia. Thus far its application has been too limited to warrant forming a definite opinion 'as to its therapeutic value. Medical conclusions cannot be based upon 10 or 20, or even 100, cases. There must be 500 or 1,000." Dr.

Tasker Howard, visiting physician at the Long Island College Hospital, echoed Dr. Butler's views. He said it was too early to forecast what Brooklyn hospitals night do, but he felt the treatment merited the most painstaking. consideration and investigation. The principle upon which the method is based appeared sound, he said.

According to Dr. Nattrass, the dissolution of congestion in the. lungs by electrically generated heat is simply a scientific adaptation of the old method of treating chest colds by mustard plasters and other heat producing agencies. However, he said, where such external applications created a superficial and essentially external heat, the electrical current introduces a heat directly into the lungs, thereby melting the congestion much as gelatine is dissolved. "The use of heat in the treatment of pneumonia is very old." said Dr.

Nattrass. "Mustard plasters and kindred methods of producing heat have saved the lives of countless patients, but heat so generated is not an efficient agent in penetrating the lungs. The diathermic method introduces heat directly into the lungs without burning the surface. The current flosw through the entire applying the heat where it is needed, but without setting up a fever. The treatments last 20 minutes and are given twice a day.
