Speed Record Shattered
By Fire Department
Rescue Squad Covers Ten Miles
Through City Traffic in
Fourteen Minutes

All records for prompt responses to
alarms were broken early yesterday
when the Fire Department Rescue
Squad covered the ten miles between
it's headquarters in Great Jones Street
and motion picture theater at 1858
East 149th Street, The Bronx, in four
teen minutes.
The time required by the firemen
for dressing and getting their appara-
tus to the street is included in the
fourteen minutes, and it is believed
that speed of more than a mile a
minute was attained, all Of it through
streets we'll travelled at that hour.
The rescue squad was summoned by
Deputy Chief Thomas Hayes, when the
firemen fighting the blaze were driven
to the street by gas fumes. The gas
company employees had been sum-
moned but we're unable to find the
break in the main or the street cut
out.
When Lieutenant Francis Blessing,
commanding the rescuers, arrived at
the scene he donned smoke helmet
and with two of his men went into
the burning building. They found the
leak and did some hurried plumbing
to stop the flow.
The burned building was occupied
by several stores.

Morgenthau Calls
Hylan Regime Little
Ignorant Oligarclly
Former Ambassador Tells
How Europeans at Paris
Laughed at Mayor Dur
ing Model City Farley

The twenty-ffth anniversary cele-
bration Of the Women's Municipal
League at the Hotel McAlpin yesterday
wound up with characterization of
the city administration by Henry Nor
genthau as little oligarchy of self
appointed ignorant men,"
The women who organized twenty
five years ago under Mrs. Josephine
Shaw Lowell as a sequel to the Lexow
investigation were urged to make It
their business to clean up the city
government
"The independents are going to rule
in 1920 in the Presidential election,
and in 1921 they will make a clean
sweep of the whole present city ad-
ministration," Mr.. Morgenthau said
Europeans Laughed
when some of us in Paris last spring
talked Of establishing democracy in
Constantinople which should be
model to the world, we found that
Europeans laughed at US. How can
you establish a model city when you
have Hylan in your own city?' lhey
asked"
Albert Bard, former president of the
Municipal Art Society, attacked the CON
duct Of the soldiers and sailors
memorial committee as an example
of what Mr.. Morgenthcu called an
"oligarchy Of self-appointed, ignorant
men," Mr. Bard declared that no one
knew who the members of the commit.
tee were save that Rodman Wanamaker
was it's head.
At Mr.. Bards suggestion the league
public competition, through which all
citizens might express their ideas for
the memorial, the judges to be repre-,
sentatives OF leading civic and art
societies.
Dr.. Davis Urges Nonpartisanship
Mrs. Frederick Hodgdon, president
OF the league, acted as chairman. The
speakers were William J. Schieff1in,
chairman of the Citizens Union, who
reviewed the work Of the Lexow COM
mittce; Henry H. Curran. President
elect OF Manhattan; DR.. katharine
Bement Davis, Mr.. Morgerthau and
MIR. Bard.
DR.. Davis urged the women to hold
themselves nonpartisan in city politics.
This did not mean that they were not
to join political parties, she said, but
merely that in local affairs they were
to put honest, efficient administration
OF the city government ahead of party.
I'm national affairs" she said, "there
are great issues involved which make
it necessary for you to take stand
with one great party or another, but
1t makes no difference in the handling
Of garbage for Manhattan whether you
You must look upon city government
as merely a business corporation for
the conduct of public affairs, which, in
less complicated state, the people
aid for themselves. Such things as
public health, city cleaning, fire pre-
vent'on and police involve no issues
llge to see both parties in the city
government, yes and Socialist, too.

Hugo NOnninates
Mary G.. Hay for
Place ON Big 4
200 Women Republicans
Applaud Boom for Her
as a Delegate to the
National Convention

Miss Mary Garrett Hay is the choice
of Secretary of State Francis M. Hugo
tor woman delegate to the Republican
national convention next summer. If
applause means anything she is also
the choice of 200 women members of
the state executive committee, who met
at the Hotel Astor yesterday to talk
over the Republican dinner of the night
before and to plan for the coming sea-
sons activity. Mr.. Hugo's outspoken
enthusiasm for Miss Hay was consid-
cred especially significant in view of
her continued hostility to Senator
Wadsworth and the threatened differ
ence of opinion in Republican ranks as
to his candidacy for the Senatorship
next year.
"Men, as we'll as women, want to see
woman among the Big Four at the
mate Miss Hay for the place." Mr.
Hugo said. No action beyond vigorous
applause was taken.
Mr.. Hugo was not the only Rcpubl-
can leader interested in what the
women were up to in their all
day session. Four men whom the
women regarded as possible candidates
for Governor were invited to speak be-
fore the morning was over - Eugene
NJ. Travis, Ogden Mills, Thaddeus C.
Sweet and Mr.. Hugo. State Chairman
George Glynn. Senator J. Henry Wal
ters, Fred Hammond, Lafayette Gleason
and Theodore Roosevelt were other
speakers.
Mrs. John Glover South, chairman of
the women's section of the Republi-
can National Committee, urged the
women to work hard for 1920, then
took the afternoon train back to Ken
lucky. Miss Hay and Miss Harriet
Taylor Upton, of Ohio, were the other
speakers. Plans for political chautau-
quas" in the judicial districts of the
state were discussed.
In spite of Mr.. Hugo's advocacy of
Miss Hay for convention delegate it
was announced that South Dakota had
beaten New York in tue race to appoint
the first woman. The South Dakota
Legislature passed the Federal woman
suffrage amendment on December and
on December 3 the State Republican
Committee elected DR.. Helen Peabody
as one Of South Dakota's delegates to
the national convention.

Commission Merchant
Held ON Fraud Charge
Special Correspondeucs

Special Correspondence
HARTFORD, Conn. Dec. 4.-Joseph
Weissman, a commission merchant of
New Haven, who went into voluntary
bankruptcy, was held in 100000 bail
here to day by Judge Garvin of the
United States District Court, who di-
rected him to produce by Tuesday ST.
ooo,000 which he is alleged to have
concealed. He was arraigned on a
writ of ne exeat, which Judge Garvin
ISSUED on representations that Weiss
man was planning tc leave the juris-
dlction of the United State.
According to statements made in
court by Archibald Palmer New York
attorney representing many of Weiss
mans creditors, the commission mer-
chant conspired with others to defraud
banks in New York and Boston and
about three hundred members of the
Merchants' Association of New York.
BY power of persuasion which was
almost hypnotic, Mr.. Palmer declared.
Welssman had woven fine texture of
credit, obtaining hundreds of thousands
OF dollars worth of goods since March.
he had the assistance of twenty or
thirty other astute business men, the
New York attorney asserted and sold
his purchases-shoes, furs, diamonds
and other commodities-alm as fast
as he obtained them.
In return, Mr.. Palmer went on, Weiss
man gave notes. most of them maturing
this month. Mr.. Palmer said that
Weissman was planning to go to Can
ada, and that some of his relatives al
ready were there.
Wcissman in his bankruptcy schedule
estimated his liabilities at 81 500 600
and his assets at $350,0OO. Mr.. Pa!mer's
assertion is that the assets really are
about $1,0O0,000, and that Weissman
can lay hands on them if compelled to.

Rockefeller Board Finds
Serum for Gas Cangrene
Report Summarizes War Relief ;
New Drug Is Announced in
Treatment Of Syphilis

The Rockefeller Foundation made
public yesterday, in Part 7 of it's an
nual report, a brief summary of it's
work during the war. This consisted
chiefly in supplying meningitis, pneu-
monia, anti-gas gangrene and dysen-
terry serums for the use of army and
navy medical units, and providing in
officers, nurses and enlisted men.
The Foundation has also developed a
drug for the treatment of syphilis
This has been used, according to the
report, in the treatment of 1876 patients
at the hospital of the Rockefe Ter In
stitute. 1t has also been distributed
among small number of hospitals
treating syphiitic cases. But it is stated
that until reports of effects have been
collated and the limitations of it's use
fulness determined, there will be no
general distribution of the drug
Serum production, the report states.
was at it's height whan the armistice
was signed. The number of doses sup
piled to the armed forces increased
from 5000 in 1917 to $4,000 in 1918,
and for the first three months Of 1915
the output equalled the total for the
entire previous year. The serums, de-
rived from immunized horses from
the Rockefeller Department of Animal
Pathology at Princeton, N. j., we.e
supplied as follows:
Meningitis serum, 406.SS liters, or
2,035 bottles of twenty mililiters each,
including 80 liters TO the Royal Navy
College at London.
Pneumonia serum, for three types
of the disease and for determining the
type 64.79 liters.
Dysentery serum, for army medical
schools, the A. E. f. and the Red Cross
in France, 55.74 liters.
Full Of development OF serum for
the treatment of gas gangrene appeared
near at hand, says the report, when
the armistice was signed. Results OBJ
tanned in the treatment of gas gan
creme are said to have assured the con-
clusion that a permanent addition has
been made to measures both for pre-
venting and for treating gas gangrene.
DR.. Alexis Carrel, the report further
states, will continue the researches
and experiments he carried on in
France during the war.
