DELICATE SURGERY FAILS TO BLOT OUT
 VICIOUS TENDENCY
Gus Ganung, Victim of Brain Injury, Again Under
 Sentence

Before Judge Frank L. Wilder in City court today and to the surprise Of the attendants who were present at yesterdays session, Gus Ganung again appeared to be charged with drunken ness. The recent delicate operation which had been performed upon his brain in the hope of eradicating the tendency towards vicious habits avail ed naught as he was found upon Fair
 field avenue yesterday afternoon in a helpless condition. Suspended sen tence of ten days imposed yesterday was revoked and thirty additional days added.
 Tn victim of an accident shortly af- ter his birth, Ganung has had long record in crime, no less than eight charges of drunkenness, theft and aS- sault being proven against him with in the last two years. Brought into police headquarters three weeks ago suffering from lapse of memory he was sent to Bridgeport hospital where after a consultation of eminent author itiees and specialists, it. was decided that trepanning would have to be re- sorted to to relieve the pressure upon the brain cells.
 The operation was successfully per- formed by DTS. E. M. Smith and A. J. Roberts with the result that seven or eight bIood-clots were removed and his memory restored. It was believed at the time that the operation would probably be instrumental in reducing the tendency towards crime, and with a view towards following his career

PARIS AERO SHOW SUCCESS
Science Treated Almost Wholly
as an Art of War.
IBy Gable to The Tribune. !

Paris, Oct. 2G.-The fourth annual
exhibition of aerial locomotion, opened
to-day by President Fallieres, War
Minister Millerand and Marine Min
lister Delcasse in the Grand Palace of
the Champs Elysees, is triumph for
French aviation constructors, and
shows a marked tendency TO treat
aerial science almost exclusively as an
art Of war. Military aeroplanes and
naval hydro-aefoplanes are salient
features of the exhibition, and for the
first time the Ministries of War and Of
Marine take part in the show.
The salon is beautifully decorated in
blue and white, and sixty aeroplanes
represent the mechanical perfection Of
the art of flying. Only two balloons
and not a single airship are to be seen,
because the modern dirigible has be-
come too big and unwieldy to appear
to advantage in the Grand Palace.
The machine attracting the most
popular attention is a wonderful 100
seating three persons, Of the same type
that won at the st. Malo meeting, but
made entirely of metal and having a
stern floater forming a rudder, and
also enabling the hydro-aeroplane to
navigate in water at low speed. There
is a marvellous show of motors. Re-
markable among these is a 4OO-horse-
power Astra- AZORES, completed for the
British Admiralty.
Among the War Departments eX-
hibits are automobiles on which the
component parts Of aeroplanes are
transported during a campaign. Army
and navy stands are guarded by sap
pers Of the army aviation corps and by
bluejackets Of the naval hydro-aero-
plane division. The exhibition, adj
mirably organized by Andre Granet,
surpasses anything ever before at
tempted here 1t will remain open
until November 10.

Holbrook, who was twenty-five years
old. left Montclair last February for Cuba
a short time after he had come into pos
session Of his share Of his fathers es-
tate, intending to stay in the island re-
public several months for the benefit Of
his health.
In Havana he bought a saddle horse
on which, as he told in letters to his
family here, he made trips in and about
the Cuban capital. In April the letters
ceased coming.
Theodore s. Holbrook and another
brother who lives in Rutherford, made
every effort to ascertain the cause Of the
young mans mysterious silence. They
communicated with the Cuban authori-
ties and United States consuls and con-
sular agents i'm Havana and other cities
Of the island, but no information could
be secured.
Yesterday Theodore Holbrook received
short message from the head Of a
Cuban hospital saying Holbrook had died

NEW HAVEN LINE IS SAFE
Road Master Calls Rotten Ties
irregularities.


Bridgeport. Conn, oct. 26.-Coroncr
John J. Phelan concluded his eXamina-
ton Of witnesses I'm his investigation into
the fatal wreck on the New York, New
Haven & Hartford Railroad at Westport
October 3, late this evening Next week
he will go over other railroad systems to
study track conditions and the safety ap-
planes used officials and employees Of
the company were examined to-day.
Although the Interstate Commerce Com
mission had publicly announced that 1t
had sent recommendations to the COM
pany urging the use Of safety appliances
after the Federal Express wreck in July,
1911, Vice President j.. c. auckland Of
the New York, New Haven & Hartford
Railroad declared that the railroad had
never received any formal report or
recommendation from the commission.
Mr.. auckland admitted that a report had
come to him, but that he did not regard
II as a recommendation and therefore no
ATTEMPT was made 20 comply with its
provisions.
George A. De More, road master Of the
section where the wreck occurred, said
that the track was absolutely safe. The
loose spikes and the rotten ties, he said,
were little irregularities" that could be
found on any roadbed, and that there was
no apparent disturbance to the roadbed
was proof that the line was safe for
travel.

CIGARETTE SMOKERS SAD
Balkan War Likely to Send Up
Price of Turkish Tobacco.
- Cahle to The Trlhune.

London, Oct. 26.-lnveterate smokers
of Turkish cigarettes, while serenely
Indifferent to the outcome of the Bal
kan war, are viewing the prospects OF
an immediate rise in the price Of their
favorite weed with a good deal Of dis
favor. In spite of the fact that the
bulk Of Turkish tobacco is exported
from Asia Minor and comes through
Greek channels, and therefore the
Greeks are unlikely to interfere with
the process of the industry, a rigorous
conscription enforced by Turkey will
cause a serious interruption in gather
ing the crops.
The general Reorganization Of the
commercial life Of both Turkey and
Greece inevitably will mean a shortage
of the tobacco supply, and currants
and figs are certain to fall far short
of the usual output. The export Of the
three last named commodities runs
from September to Christmas and
should be in full swing now, but ship
ments are greatly impeded by the call
ing out of the reserves, which has
taken away both the workers and
clerks.
In addition the government has COM
Wandered vehicles Of all kinds, and
the railways are almost monopolizei
by government work. In the provision
markets here currants have already
risen a shilling a hundredweight and
are still rising.
