Between Paul Hennig, ex-subjcct Of
the Kaiser, and death IS traitor to
his adopted country there stands inter
posed to-day only the thickness of a
gold leaf, which is said to be ten times
thinner than a cigarette paper.
Scientifically accurate gauges, in the
hands of the man who accused him,

eral District Court, of Brooklyn, yes
tcrday that Irregularities in torpedo
gyroscope parts manufactured by the
+. w. Bliss Company last November
measured tenth of one one thou
sandth of an inch. The question now
is whether Hcnnig deliberately made
these irregularities in an effort to
derangc the steering gear Of torpedocs.
Before Iennig can be convicted the
government must get the defective
gyro parts unequivocally before the

day. The conditions is that United
States Attorney Melville j. France es-
tabiish not only nennig's connection
with them. but prove that they are the
same parts that were turned over to
government inspectors on November IL
and that they are in the same condi-
tion to-day as they were then.
If this condition is not met to- day or

not guilty would be demanded. II it

Deliberately Made

Chatficld, and the parts arc unquali-
fiedly admitted in evidence, Hcnng
will take the stand in his own defence,
and he will have twenty or thirty other
witnesses.
Only One Witness Heard
The battle over the admissability of
the defective gyro parts continued
throughout yesterday. Only one wit
ness was heard. This was Charles Tcit-
clbaum, of $40 East 162d Street, a gov
ernment inspector employed at the
Bliss plant. Tcitelbaum claimed credit
for having discovered the gyroscopc
defects.
At the opening of the trial last Fri.
day United States Attorney France said
that it would be demonstrated that
Hennig had treated with emery five
boxes Of spare gyro parts.
When Tcitel lbaum was called to the
stand Hcnnig's counsel forced him to
admit that he could not demonstrate
the difference between emery, corboun-
dunn or diamond dust, and the best the
government could get before the jury
was the declaration that when the sus-
pectcd parts were examined after they
had been packed substance was
found upon them which "looked like
emery"
Among the parts were a number of
buttons" made of hardened steel that
were cracked, but it had been shown
by the testimony of government w.t.
nesses Friday that buttons and other
parts of gyroscopc bearings frequently
were fractured by chemical reactions,
the result of the hardening process
even long after the parts had been in
spccted and passed.

Of hot water would also contribute i'm
portantly to the same end.
Equitable Shows the Way
These are small things. but in the
aggregate the saving effected would be
large. That will be evident from a
glance at the accompanying chart
which shows the average consumption
Of coal in the Equitable Building on
Tuesday Wednesdays. Thursdays and
Fridays Of several weeks. The. average
daily consumption OF coal during these
four days Of the week ended January }
was $4,000 pounds. That is the nor
NAL cold weather consumption Of the
building. At that time the manage
ment sent out a notice to tenants re-
questng them to use light and heat as
sparingly AS possible without inconvcn
renee. The result was an immediate
drop IN the consumption of coal to l15.-
600 pounds and later to less than 10
900 pounds.
