EXPECT TO ARREST
MISSING MANAGER
Detectives Say They Are on
Trail of Benjamin Glaessel
in Chicago.

Detectives on the trail of Benjamin
Glaessel alias Benjamin Crawford,
who disappeared Tuesday with more
than $4,000 in assets of the Nyberg
Automobile Company, today declared
that they believed the alleged alb
sconder would be captured within a
few days. It is said that Crawford,
as he was known here, has been
traced to Chicago.
Willard S. Mears, part owner of
the looted company, which has it's
garage and office at 577 Central ave-
nue., today stated that he has been
hard at work trying to straighten
out the affairs of the Nyberg con-
Germ. He declared that the owners
are now in a position to settle with
their creditors in full. Mears is at
work on a new instrument for the
use of partly deaf persons, but had
been obliged to give up the work in
his New York laboratory until the
tangled affairs of the Nyberg Com
pany were adjusted.
Mrs. Willard S. Mears, wife of the
part owner, today denied the report
since the disappearance of Crawford.
She asserted that she spends most of
her time in the office attempting to
straighten out the books of the COM
pany, and for that purpose has post
poned an intended trip to her rela-
tives in Pittsburgh.
The examination of the books of the
company, explained Mrs. Mears. as
sures every creditor of receiving 100
cents on the dollar. Tt is estimated
that the liabilities of the concern will
aggregate about $1,500, while the as
sets are valued at $780, 1t is also
known that when the Nyberg Com
pany adjusts the claims against 1t the
business will be abandoned. Attorney
Nicholas F. Perrotty is in charge of
the adjustment
When Crawford disappeared he is
said to have taken $3.50 of the con-
Germs cash and a new automobile. A
machine resembling the Nyberg ear is
reported to have been located in Phil
adelphia.

CORDIALLY TAKES
HIS EXAMINATION
Service Board Defends Action
in Arranging Special
Privilege.

Defense of its action in according
Lieutenant Thomas ]. CORDIALLY, of
the police department, the privilege
of a special examination for promo
ton to a captaincy was today made
by the Civil Service Commission
through Commissioner Alexander
Fordyce, jr.. in charge of this dis
trict.
There has been some criticism in
some quarters over the commission
act in providing the special test after
Mr.. CORDIALLY had failed to take the
examination with the other eligibles
on the original date set. At the time
CORDIALLY was in Europe and claims
to have known nothing about any
examination.
In his request to the board Cor
bally points out that the date for
the test was not set when he sailed
for the other side, and claims that he
did not know of it until some time
after it had been held. In this he
was backed by the Police Board,
which in letter to the civil service
authorities and apparently in answer
to a question by them, states that
they can see of no good reason why
CORDIALLY should not be accorded a
special examination.
In view of these facts the commits
sion adopted a resolution that be-
cause of the short time between the
announcement of the examination
and the actual date of the holding
of the same CORDIALLY was prevented
from coming back home in time even
should he have received notice of the
test. The decision to give special
test was unanimous.
Lieutenant CORDIALLY was given his
test today. an entirely new set of
questions to those propounded at the
other examination were given him.
This was to insure a fair deal all
around. SO that the candidate could
not make a special study of those
given at the last test.

it was not question of whether or

PHONE COMPANIES
IN COURT BATTLE
Metropolitan Head Declares the
New York Is Hogging Jer-
sey City Business.

JERSEY CITY, Sept. PA spirited
argument took place before the
State Board of Public Utility Com
missioners in the Chancery Chambers
this morning between H. Lee Sellers,
president of the Metropolitan Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company, with
its main office at AZ Montgomery
street, and Attorney Day, of the
New York Telephone Company, as
to whether or not the case in which
they are bitter rivals should be ad-
iourned indefinitely or be tried at
once
Mr.. Day asked to have the case go
over until a suit in the Court of
Chancery between the same corpora
tons should be decided. This Presl-
dent Sellers most emphatically re,
fused to agree to. The Utility COM
missioners, after a long drawn drawn
out argument, decided to grant the
adjournment, but only until Friday,
October 3, at Newark, President
Sellers asked that the telephone COM
pany furnish telephone services to his
offices in this city. The New York
company refused point blank.
After waiting for some time Presi-
dent Sellers petitioned the Public
Utility Commissioners to compel the
rival concern to put in a telephone.
Mr.. Sellers told the commissioners
that 1t was simply scheme of the
New York company to try and shut
the Metropolitan company out of Jer-
sey City.
To Fight Out Injunction.
He said that the New York COM
pany had obtained a rule to show
cause in the Chancery Court why the
Metropolitan should not be restrained
from doing business, because 1t had
adopted the same name of sub
sidiary corporation of the New York
Telephone Company. Attorney Day
agreed that this was true, and that
the injunction suit would be fought
out in a very few months, and asked
that the petition before the public
utility commissioners be deferred
until that time at least.
"But the Metropolitan Company,
which you claim is a subsidiary of the
New York company. went out Of ex-
