Two of the three short-weight coal Max charges Smith, against co-owners Joseph of the Levine Brook- and I lyn-Nevins Coal Company, and the coal company as a corporation, were disposed of yesterday when Magistrate Rayfield, in the Municipal Term Court, held Levine and Smith in $1,000 bail each for Special Sessions and the Brooklyn-Nevins Coal Company, as a corporation, for a similar action. Examination on a third charge made against the corporation by the Avon Steam Laundry of 90 Evergreen ave. was adjourned until Nov. 16. The second coal gouging charge, made against the coal dealers as a corporation, occupied the major part of the hearing yesterday.

David Taylor and Hugh Ratner, joint owners of the State Laundry, and two witlesses testified that they had kept a constant vigil over two loads of coal upon which the action was based, from the time they were alleged to have been dumped by the Brooklyn-Nevins Coal Company in an excavation at their new plant. 768 Murtle until Inspector Jacob Tuchman of the Bureau of Weights Measures ordered the coal removed for re-weighing on tested scales. Joseph Weigelmann, an employee or the State Laundry, corroborated their statements when he testified that he had remained on guard at the mouth of the excavation all night. Under cross-examination by Judge Nash. Taylor admitted that he had conferred with Inspector Tuchman prior to the delivery of the coal and that he had told the inspector that on previous deliveries fr from the Brooklyn-Nevins Company he had suspicion that the company was giving him short weight.

When asked by Lawyer Nash why he had kept such a careful watch on the coal pile, especially as it was below the ground and protected from possible robbery by the partially finished cellar, Taylor declared that he had done so In order that, in the event of a court action against the coal dealers, he might have a puncture-proof case. When asked by Magistrate Rayfiel to testify as to how the coal was weighed. Tuchman said that he had removed the coal from the hastily constructed bin in ash cans by means of a hoist. The coal was dumpel n- to carts and taken to the public he said. When the scales had scales.

been tested and the coal weighed, the inspector declared, he found but 13.150 pounds of coal instead of 699 pounds as billed to the laundry en the dealer's slips. "Would it be possible for someone with. the scales so that to tamper though they balanced they even would be inaccurate?" Nash asked after Tuchman had ad. the inspector initted in cross that exto balance them he had not re. cept the scales between the first tested and second loads of coal.

FAMOUS JAPANESE SEISMOLOGIST DIES Tokio, Nov. 10 (By the Associated Press) -Fusakichi Omori, one of the most eminent of Japanese seismologists and a professor of the Imperiai Tokia University, died yesterday. He had been ill sinre his return from Australia some months ago.

Omori was the inventor of various seismologiual instruments and had written a number of valuable works on the sdienhe. He attended the seismologiral conferences held in Germany in 1901 and 1903 and later visited British India. San Francisco and Ital to investigate the earthquakes. TRIAL BALLOONS ON TRANSIT SITUATION CATCH NO LIGHTNING Gov. Smith and Hylan Group Silent as Sentiment on Legislation Is Sought.

That the theories advanced within the last few days as to Governor Smith's plans for transit legislation next winter were in the nature of trial balloons sent up by his friends to test out public sentiment and to "discover" the attitude of the Hylan administration with respect to the Hearst-Murphy break was the ion expressed in political circles today. Governor, at Atlantic City. declined to make any statement as to transit legislation, and his secretary said he did not propose to discuss it till he got back from his vacation. One of his closest political udvisors in the city said there was 10 transit plans formulated, but added that "the stories made good speculation and good reading." Concerning the suggestion that the Governor might remove the Transit Commissioners in order to put men of his own selection in the three $15,000 posts, it was pointed out that last winter he had refused point blank to move in this direction even when it was backed by the propoganda of the Hearst-Hylan combine. The suggestion that he would seek a compromise measure between the Walker -Donohue bill and the old Jesse bill, or even accept the Jesse bill on the theory that anything should be done to get subway work started, was explained by politicians, who pointed out that the basis of this was a deadlock between the Transit Commission and the Hylan administration--and the deadlock had been broken.

Subway work to the extent of the ability of the city debt limit has been agreed on. Work on the 4th ave. extension is actually to be started next week. The appropriatioin has been made. Further, the Hylan board and the commission have agreed to build the Crosstown line in Brooklyn and the West Side-Washington Heights line in Manhattan.

Money for further building is not available--in fact there is some doubt whether sufficient can be obtained for the lines greed upon. Finding no reasonable constructive object for transit agitation, politicians said that it might be that the stories were put out purely as balloons. If the public seemed to be clamoring for a change of some kind. Smith would undertake it. On the other hand, it might be a test of the Hylan administration.

many is anxious to retain the allegiance of Hylan as it breaks with Hearst, and it is possible that the Wigwam is trying to see if Hylan wouldn't be content to remain loyal to the hall if he was permitted to see his old time enemies the Transit Commissioners- -cast out of office, even if, at the same time, he was not permitted to get his legislation for busses and for municipal operation of traction lines. Thus far there has been no comment from the Hylan group--no suggestions of what it wanted this winter. Apparently it is standing on its demands of a vear ago- -which the strengthened G. 0. P.

majority in the Assembly will not pass. Neither has there been any public demand for the scalps of the Transit Commissioners. They have pushed the new subway building projects demanded, by. the taxpayers and the excuse for agitation against them hasn't been found. Consequently the transit legislature balloons have been floating around.

Crampton--Mystifies Physicians in Diagnosis of Ailments. Rafael Schermann, the Polish graphologist, spread further mystification, and in excellent quarters, too, when yesterday afternoon he performed feats that drew exclamations from a group of neurologists who had acted as his audience. Schermann attempted diagnoses of the ailments of five patients, with 110 more information than he could deduce from handwriting. Three of the attempts were successful. In the other two he failed definitely, which not cause the physicians In the to opinion moderate of their Dr.

praiseward Crampton, a physical culture expert, Schermann is a saltation, which means that Schermann, in Dr. Crampton's belief, is a biological specimen a thousand years ahead of his day. In other words, a thousand from now, if all goes well, the human race will be equipped with the "same powers Schermann has now. The exhibition took place in the offices of Dr. John C.

Gester of 18 E. 78th Manhattan, and present, besides Drs. Crampton and Gester, were Dr. Charles Loomis Dana, of 53 W. 53d Manhattan, the dean of New York neurologists; Dr.

James Ramsey Hunt of 46 W. 55th Manhattan; Dr. Foster Kennedy of 30 W. 50th Manhattan, and Dr. A.

L. Garbat of 113 E. 81st Manhattan. All are neurologists except Dr. Garbat, who is a specialist on internal medicine.

The bald-headed little Pole and his friend, Eugene S. Bagger, were located in a private room, into which the patients were brought one at a time. Three of the physicians were present to watch the experiment. In each case the patient wrote his or her name and a line of matter and then sat down facing Schermann. The graphologist studied the writing and the patient and then gave his diagnosis.

To the first patient he said: "I feel high blood pressure. was very serious but much better now. This man has great responsibilitiy and is of a nervous disposition. Hemorrhages occurred more than 12 months ago. The man is a very hearty eater and that is a good sign." The man was a patient of Dr.

Crampton's. On a paper which Dr. Crampton had written before the test. to be used to check up, was: "High blood pressure. Better now.

Semi-paralysis of leg. Hemorrhages last year." In every respect Schermann was correct, Dr. Crampton said, except that the hemorrhages were not more than 12 months ago. The second patient was a woman and Schermann correctly diagnosed her trouble as diabetes. In addition he offered the information that she suffered from a sexual abnormality.

She confirmed this in saying that she had no children though she had been married for 20 years. The third patient was a 19-yearold boy suffering from tuberculosis. Schermann's diagnosis in this case a complete failure unless an investigation should prove his words correct. He insisted that the boy's troubles were the result of causes which the boy denied. The physicians agreed that the case should be regarded as a failure.

In the fourth case Schermann came successfully through a trap. The patient was not brought in before him. And when he had read the writing he said that the patient might have some, intestinal complaint, very slight, but otherwise he could find nothing wrong. In point of fact the man was in excellent health. The fifth and last test was a flat failure.

The patient was an epileptic. Schermann said that he had severe pains, which was not true, nor is it true, physician said, that epileptics usually have severe pains. "I am convinced that there is something very strange and unusual in this man's powers," Dr. Dana said. "I don't believe it is a trick, for we are not all fools," "He's a human Dr.

Crampton said, "and he picks his information out of the air." MISSING CHINESE LAUNCH IS FOUND $10,000 Stolen Passengers Are Held for Ransom. Hongkong, Nov. 10 (By the Associated Press) The missing ferry launch Lee Fook, which disappeared last Wednesday with 43 Chinese passengers and $10,000 aboard, was found today near Macao. The boat, which plied between Dumbbell Island and Hongkong, was held up by pirates, taken to Chinese territory and stripped of everything of value. The loot wand then transferred to small boats the vessel was abandoned.

The passengers, after being robbed, were taken inland, where they are being held for ransom. 61 FINNISH REDS ON TRIAL FOR TREASON Stockholm, Nov. 10-Sixty-one Finnish Communists went on trial at Abo, Finland, on Thursday. The list of defendants includes the entire Communist group in Parliament, numbering 26 men, all of whom were arrested last August charged with being in the pay of Russia to cause riots and uprisings in Finland.

Marshal Fayolle Warns World Germany Prepares For War-Strong in the Air (By Wireless to The Eagle and Public Ledger, Copuright 1923.) Paris, Nov. 10-Marshal Fayolle, the famous artillery commander of the great war, today made the following statement to The Eagie and Public Ledger: "There is no reason for surprise at what happened in Bavaria. The boche never changes. "The Allies must act now or Germany will soon be too strong for us to enforce our will. There is likelihood that the Hohenzollerns will return and we may soon be called upon to face the same old tenacious, industrious, knavish cunning and pugnacious Germany.

ELKS CELEBRATE ARMISTICE DAY General Wingate Is Speaker at Exercises. Members of Brooklyn Lodge, B. P.

O. gathered in the clubhouse last night to celebrate the fifth anniversary of Armistice Day with exercises conducted by Exalted Ruler John F. Tangney. Gen. George Albert Wingate was the principal speaker.

The ceremonies were opened by the entry of massed colors of American Legion posts, following which the lodge sang "America." The Rev. Edward J. Higgins made the invocation and Rabby Samuel J. Levinson offered the benediction. General Wingate said: "Today we are too near the war to view it in its right perspective.

It will be many years before judgment may be safely rendered, giving exact credit where it is justly due and estimating results with precision. But some things we do realize. "The results of victory are usually measured in terms of territory acquired or in the maintenance of governments assailed, and in the glory and achievement of arms. This war was unique, not only in the vastness of its extent, the effect upon military operations of the stabilization of lines and the absence of flanks, the use of new means of destruction on land and sea, such as airplanes, submarines, gas and guns of extreme range, but above all by the participation of this Nation with no selfish objects to gain. "Our mission was in part to halt the invador, and that we accomplished.

"Today we celebrate the victory of the American Arms on land sea. A victory in which the entire Nation participated, for this was not merely a war between armies and navies. It was a war between nations--a contest in which every man and woman participated by individual effort in the uniformed forces or in providing for their maintenance and supply, contributing or producing that which was needed or curtailing the consumption of the foodstuffs threatened with depletion. "We celebrate tonight a victory due to the character and manhood of the personnel that composed our Army and Navy and the support contributed by the entire Nation. In SO doing we rejoice in a victory the equal of any, military accomplishment in which this Nation has participated."

HIDDEN BANK BOOKS SHOW $15,588 FUND FOR HUBHES HEIRS Accounts Started 10 Years Ago for Wife and Children Are Revealed. bank books, totaling $15,588, which were hidden away 10 ago by their owner, James Hughes. a local merchant, who died Feb. 5, 1913, were discovered recently by his two daughters, and in a report submitted to the Surrogate's Court yesterday unexpectedly added this amount to the testator's estae. Two of the late Mr.

Hughes' daughters, Mrs. Mary A. Byrne of 278 Vanderbilt ave. and Sarah J. Hughes of 958 Bedford ave, recalled recently that their father' nad said something about a trust fund for his wife and children, some time in 1912, but as his will made no mention of this fund the heirs had forgotten about its existence.

These bank books came to light a few days ago, when the testator's daughters were having his former store cleared and a man removing the contents dropped a bundle of papers. I He started to throw it away, when the sisters interposed. Opening the bundle, they discovered the six bank books, showing deposits in the South Brooklyn Savings Bank, which had been accumulating interest through the past 10 years. The name of Catheripe Hughes, widow of the testator, appeared on one of the books, and the names of her five. children appeared on the other five.

Faber in the Supreme Court, Queens, yesterday took testimony from two witnesses in a hearing growing out of a disagreement over the custody of five-yearold Marie Elmondorf, whose parents were divorced last November. After hearing Mrs. Elmondorf and her mother, Bickert, JusFrances, tice Faber adjourned the case until Friday.

Three motion are being considered by Justice Faber. One is amend the decree of divorce so to take from Walter Elmondorf, real estate dealer, who lives at 1208 Ave. Brooklyn, the right to visit his child at stated intervals. Another is brought by Mrs. Elmondorf to find Elmondorf in contempt of court for violating provisions of the court order concerning visits to the child, and the third is brought by Elmondorf to find Mrs.

Elmondorf in contempt of court for violating her side of the provisions for visitations. The Elmendorfs were married Dec. 4, 1918. On Nov. 22, 1922, Justice Faber, in the Kings County Supreme Court, granted to Mrs.

Elmondorf a legal separation. In the decree it was directed that Mrs. Elmondorf have the custody of the child and that the father be allowed to see the child between noon and 5 o'clock in the afternoon the second and fourth Sundays of each month, a nurse or other person designated by Mrs. 2lmondorf to be present at all On the first proposition, Mrs. Elmondorf claims that her husband is not a fit person 1 to see the child.

She claims he is frequently intoxicated, that he has been seen with other women since the separation was granted and that he frequently is profane in his language. On the contempt action, Mrs. Elmendort claims that on several occasions Elmondorf took the child in his motorcar and left the nurse who was supposed to be with the child. On one occasion last July he went to Ohioville, N. on a Sunday, where the child was visiting its grandparents, took the child and brought her to his home in Brooklyn.

She claims he kept the child there until she went after her with a detective about 1 o'clock Monday mornning. Elmondorf has put in a general denial of the charges against him. He claims he always treated his wife well, is especially fond of the child and wishes nothing but the welfare of the child. He says that on the occasion on which he brought the child from Ohioville he was entitled to see the child that day and thought the ride would be a pleasure for the child. He said that after he got to Brooklyn he attempted to get in touch with the mother at her home at 1326 Gates but being unable to do 80, finally put the child to bed because it was getting too late for her to stay up.

Elmondorf also charged that during a period of several weeks last summer he was refused the right to see the child by the mother.
