CALLS SON-IN.L4W BLACKMAILER
Young Man Who Married Girl Secretly
In College, Arrested.

Frederick w. German, the twenty-four
year-old son OF Charles p. Germann, a
wealthy retired citizen Of 90 Norman ave-
nue., Brooklyn. was arrested yesterday on
on charge Of blackmail made by his father
in-lawe DR.. William c. Hallock Of 4e5 East Fiji
teenth street. Flatbush, who alleged that
Germann had sent him threatening letters
demanding $3.50.
While Germann and a daughter Of DR..
Halock were at college, four years ago.
they were secretly married. German says.
They agreed not to let their secret become
known until Germann was able to sup
port his wife In the manner to which she
was accustomed.
Germann obtained position as chemist
In large Manhattan drug house. Last
spring the Halock family learned Of their
daughters marriage and took immediate
steps to have it annulled on the ground that
the girl was under II when married.
Then Germann wrote letters to his wife
asking her to join him. She gave the letters
to her parents and told them that she con-
sidered her marriage girlish prank and had
no intention of ever living with him.
Not obtaining replies to his letters.
Germann began to write threatening letters
to his father-in-law. The latter paid no
attention to the letters. but did not destroy
them.
A month ago. 1t Is alleged. Germann began
to demand $3.50 from DR.. Hallock under
threats. DIR. Hallock received the last
letter on Saturday. He got together all the
letters and took them to Magistrate Reilly,
who issued a warrant.
Gernann was released on bail last night.
He will be arraigned to-day.
When Mrs. Hallock, the mother OF the
GIRL was seen last night she would neither
deny nor confirm that her daughter was
married to Germann.

Special CABLE Despatch TO THB SUN.
TOXIC. July s.-The reported transfer Of
Lloyd Griscom, the American Minister here,
to the State Department at Washington was
published to-day and was received with
regret on all sides.
No Minister since Mr.. Bingham has so
commanded the confidence Of Japanese
statesmen and commercial men. The latter
would be especially affected by his transfer.
Mr.. Griscom's training and tact have secured
the settlement of American claims of long
standing without estranging the Japanese.
His relations with the merchants and the
Japanese are closer than those Of any
Minister in twenty years. Mr.. Griscom
has also been successful in adjusting the
differences between the various scots OF
missionaries, and he has created an efficient
American spirit.
Your correspondent learns that the
Japanese Government, through high
official, has expressed unqualified regret at
the report of Mr.. Griscom's recall and the
hope that the report Is not true.

STEPS ON DROWNED NAYS BODY.
Princeton Student Loses Life Bathing at
Brighton Beach.

Henry Clifford Cromwell. a broker at II
Broadway, stepped on human body as
he was wading into the ocean near the
Parkway Baths. Brighton Beach, at I
o'clock last night. Cromwell brought the
body to shore.
The police learned few minutes later
that Joseph B. Mccormick, a Princeton
student. from Schuylkill, Pa, was searching
for his friend, Edwin D. Helm, who had
come from Princeton with him in the after
noon to spend day at the seashore.
Mccormick identified the body as that
of Helm. He couldn't explain how his
friend happened to be drowned. They
had been in bathing together, he said,
and suddenly Helm disappeared. McCor-
mick thought for while that he had gone
to the bathhouse, but when he searched
for Helm there and didn't find him he be-
came alarmed.
Helm was 20 years old, and his home was
in Schuylkill Haven. The body was taken
to Havron's morgue at Coney Island.

MAYER READY FOR EQUITABLE
Has the Hendricks Testimo ny and vii
begin to Prepare Papers.

Attorney General Mayer will begin to-day
active preparation for tho suits which he Is
to bring against Equitable directors to COM
pei them to disgorge their wrongfully made
profits and retire from the directorate. He
has been delayed in the work by the failure
of the State Insurance Department to place
in his hands the testimony taken in its in
vestigation. To-day the Attorney General
will begin in earnest the job Of examining
this testimony. This in itself, it is said
will be a laborious task as twenty or twenty
five witnesses were called, some OF them
several times.
Mr. Mayer will do the greater part Of
his work on the testimony at his Office in
this city at 81 William street, where he will
have within easy reach all the witnesses
in case he should desire any explanations.
Although Mr. Mayors examination Of the
testimony will be made chiefly with view
to obtaining ground for civil actions. he
will not disregard anything which he may
deem a proper matter for the criminal
courts. The Attorney-General had a con-
ference with a representative of the District
Attorney on Saturday. What its purpose
was Mr.. Mayer refused to say yesterday,
but it s understood that it has to do with
the testimony which Supt Hendricks had
turned over 10 MN.
The District Attorneys office has been
waiting for a copy of the testimony for
more than two weeks and like the Attorney
Generals office, has not been able to at
tempt anything definite without it. 1t
was said last night that a copy of the testi-
mony would probably be delivered to Mr..
Jerome to-day. If it is, conference be-
tween the Attorney General and Mr., Je-
rome will follow. 1t was said last night
that Attorney General Mayer would proba-
Div know by the end Of the week pretty
definitely what directors he will sue, al
though the announcement may not be
made until later. The Attorney General
spent Sunday in town. being at the Bar
Association a large part Of the day.

ton of Archibald c. Haynes as the Equita
BILE general ger for this city would
