The hearing before Federal Commits
sioner in Bankruptcy Alexander Gil
christ jr.. which was to have been held
yesterday for the purpose Of bringing
"Big BIZ" Furey and James Kean TO-
gether, will be held to-day. The fail
ure Of certain information desired by
Mr.. Myers to arrive yesterday neces-
STATED the postponement.
Bernstein Really Died
Mr. Myers learned yesterday that
Mortimer Bernstein, the mysterious
patient at the Post Graduate Hospital
who, according to Joe Gluck's testi-
mony before Commissioner Gilchrist,
passed on the stolen securities that he
turned over to Arnstein and Cohn, died
at the Lenox Hill Hospital on April IL.
The records at the Post Graduate
Hospital show that he remained there
until November s. He then roomed in
a boarding house at 101 West 115th
Street until he was again taken i'll and
went to the Lenox Hill Hospital.
AS the investigation into the bond
theft conspiracy continues the proof
grows that Cleveland was the city in
which was located one Of the principal
disposal plants" for stolen stocks.
According to an official Of one of the
surety companies, the evidence already
indicates that number of prominent
politicians in that city are implicated
in the plot.
New-York tribune., 1920-05-08

"Big Bill" Furey had stemmed the
bond theft epidemic and revealed the
plot to loot the financial district Of
$5.000,000 worth Of securities in sim
gle day.
Agents in the employ Of surety COM
panies have been engaged for weeks in
checking up losses due to bond thefts
and the Federal authorities and the
District Attorneys office arc now in
possession of a complete list Of all the
victimized banks and brokers and the
amounts they lost. Tho list gives the
names of the concerns robbed and those
with which the stolen stocks were
placed as collateral.
The authorities holding these lists
refused yesterday to make them pub
lie in detail, but were willing to ad-
NIT that only 100000 worth of securi-
ties had been recovered out of an
amount approaching $4,O00O00 stolen
within seven months.
The stolen stocks and bonds handled
by "Nicky" Arnstein and Cohn reach
total Of more than $1,00O,00O, but
these thefts cannot all be traced to
the dishonesty of the Gluck brothers
and the Wall Street messengers work
ing with them.
New-York tribune., 1920-05-08

Proof Is said to be in the hands Of
the authorities that Arnstein and Cohn,
after Gluck had revealed how easy 1t
was to appropriate negotiable securi-
ties, entered into operations in the
financial district without consulting the
Gluck ring. The stolen stocks actually
turned over to Arnstein and Cohn by
Gluck and his confcderates were liqui-
dated through the Washington office
of David w. Sullivan g. Co., and, being
placed rs collateral against loans,
brought return of $250,000.
or this amount, Joe Gluck and his
Brother Irving, were given 100000.
They turned over $4,000 to Wall Street
runners who assisted in the thefts,
Like Arnstein and Cohn, the Gluck
brothers engaged in independent opera
tlons and the total amount of their
robberies is said to exceed 81 100000
Saul S. Myers, attorney for the sure
ty companies which, through bank
ruptcy proceeding against Arnstein, are
trying to locate the stolen bonds, said
last night that 100000 worth of the
stocks handled by Sullivan & Co.
had been located in the Franklin Trust
Company of Philadelphia. Steps are
being taken to recover them

were insured. An official Of one Of the
largest concerns informed Tribune
reporter last night that the losses in
Cured by the various surety companies
had been greatly exaggerated. and that
thorough investigation of all losses
showed that only a small part of the
stolen stocks and bonds were covered
by insurance.
The figures made public last night
show that of the 100000 worth of
stolen stocks passed to the brokerage
firm of David w. Sullivan & Co. by
"Nicky" Arnstein and his partner, Nick
Cohn, about $250,000 worth have been
either located or recovered.
Other Robberies Included
While the total amount of bonds
stolen from banks and brokerage
houses here in the last seven months
is figured to be considerably in excess
of $3,500,000, this figure includes many
robberies that were in no way con-
nected with the Arnstein- plots
Some Of them occurred before Joe
Gluck, indicted Wall Street runner, had
organized his ring Of dishonest mes

ported after the arrest of Gluck and

erection of reservoirs said MT. Haines. '4This rainfall is one-quarter greater than in California. It will supply a future population of 6,000,- 900 with a daily per capita supply of 2,055 gallons, which is over 1,200 gall Ions more than the average daily con- sumption in New York City"
 Because the Mediterranean is at higher level than the Jordan and the lakes, and because of the stony un- derground surfaces which retain the water so easily, Palestine is favored in engineering projects planned to store up large quantities of water, according to MT. Haines.
 Irrigation of Lower Palestine will also be accomplished by tapping the Nile, according to Zionist engineers, who will follow British engineers in this, as all of Southern Palestine was supplied with water from the Nile in a remarkable engineering feat of the British Royal Engineers. It has been estimated that there are between 5000 and 5000 square miles in the Sinai peninsula alone, requiring ir- rigation, which would be furnished from the Nile.
 Isaac Herbst, another Zionist en- gineering expert, has brought forward a plan to utilize PaIestine's vast wa
 ter power for hydro-e electric plants
 because of the lack of coal in the Holy Land. He proposes building two
 hydro-electric plants in the Upper
 Jordan valley and Lake Tiberias, with
 a capacity of 100, 900 horsepower an
 hour. Two canals necessary for the
 plants will divert the Jordan from the
 Hu1lah swamps and convert eight
 square miles of useless land into fer tile fields, he points out. These plants
 will mark the first step in the rapid industrial development of Palestine
 says MT. Herbst.
 While millions of Jews throughout the world are awaiting the word that will permit their leaving for Pales- and pilgrims, anxious to visit the Holy Land in far greater numbers thar before the war, according to the Zion l ist Organization. To provide for then | the erection of a chain of large hotel: 1 throughout the Holy Land has beer proposed by the London Zionist Or l ganization, with the principal hotel l in Jerusalem, Jaffa and Haifa, ant l smaller ones in such historical place | as Tiberias, Safed, Hebron, Gaza | Acca and Beersheba- Health resorts built around Palestine's hot spring and mineral waters and bathini l beaches near Haifa and Jaffa, hay l also been proposed.
 Haifa, according to the Zionist en l gineers, will be the largest and tn
