NEW YORK, August 12.—Accused of hurling a_walter from the ninth floor of the Hotel Flanders in West 48th street to the marques of the Cort Theater adjoining, where scores of persons were gathered during in- termission last night, three men were arrested. Solomon Trencher, 25, the waiter, was taken to Bellevue Hospital in a critical conditfon. The prisoners described themselves as Dr. Joseph Pauline, 50, hypnotist, known on the stage as Paulina; Jack 22, and Harry Case, 21, They were charged with felonious assault. - The police sald Trencher was sent to the Hotel Flanders' room with sandwiches for which the occupants had telephoned. Trencher alleged when he presented the sandwiches and bill, an argument followed and then a fight in which he was kicked and thrown about the room. Finally, the waiter told police, he was picked up bodily and hurled through a window. Scores of * nighters,” who were attending premiere performance in the Cort Theater, had just adjourned to chat or smoke under the marquee when the glass of the window clattered down and then Trencher plunged out. Helpless to save the man, men and women saw Trencher finally break through the glass roof of the marquee and his body become wedged in the hole. MRS. ELEANORA T.

Cameras and various devices for propulsion and sclentific observation are attached to the apparatus, and are controlled electrically from within. “The experimental explorations which we ‘shall make in the Mediter- ranean are the final test of a perfected apparatus,” said Dr. Hartman on his arrival here. “What may Be the practical value of deep-sea exploration remains to be seen, but it is safe to predict that future generations will be largely de- pendent upon the sea for ofl, ore, coal and even food. ven-tenths of the earth’s surface Iies under the liquid vell of the ocean. Five-tenths of all the earth is covered by water 12,000 to 19,000 feet deep. In at least 20 places this depth reaches 25,000 feet. “All this enormous area remains unexplored and practically unknown, beyond the 300-foot limit of the diver's physical endurance. “It is not strange that man should be turning back for sustenance to the sea, because according to sclence he emerged from the sea many ages ago in the form of an amphibian. The earth is approaching the limit of its food and material resources, and in the not too distant future man must look toward the sea to help out the land in supporting him. “Knowledge of the sea and fits treasures js closely bound up with the future of the human race. The area of the earth is about 200 million square miles, of which only 55 million are land. The unexploited resources of the ocean must bs enormous, but great Ingenuity needs to be applied before they can be made accessible. Resources Are Vast. “The animal and plant resources of the ocean probably exceed those of the land. Geologists assure us that the mineral wealth of the sea is also much greater than that of the land areas. Oll-bearing strata_are known to exist in many places beneath the ocean bed. The time will come when the subaqueous world will be regard- ed as of more vital importance than the land areas. “Early in September I shall begin the exploration of the bed of tr Mediterranean, which is _history's most venerable area. We shall select moderate depths of 1,000 to 5,000 feet for our earlier experiments. “The diving aparatus will accomo- date two persons and will be lowered by a vessel from a cable. With it we hope to demonstrate man’s first conquest of the tremendous pressures of ocean depths. It will make pos- sible the actual observation and photographing of submarine condi- tion The perfected Hartman apparatus is now being completed and aésem- bled in Essen. It is constructed of a spectal steel alloy, similar to the ma- terial used in the long-distance guns of the World War. The Krupp engi- ers have guaranteed it to with- and a pressure of 15,000 feet, and have ‘equipped it with a steel wire cable measuring two and a half miles in length. Dr. Hartman's assistants will meet him at Genoa on September 15. The initial surveys will be made in the Bay of Naples, off Posilipo, where massive ruins of a city, known to geopraphers as “the ~submarine Pompeli,” lie in comparatively shal- low water. This subaqueous city is probably the old Paleopolis, one of the earliest Greek colonies on Italtan soll. About a month later the party will sail for the coast of North Africa, where Investigations will be carried out near Carthage, seat of Phoeni- and earlier civilizations, where heologists hope to find clues to the riddles of mankind's earliest his- tory. Details of the Apparatus. Throughout the investigations the operator and his sclentist observer will be seated on revolving saddles, one above the other, in their deep- sea apparatus. They will ride com- fortably and absolutely free from pressure. The cylinder is equipped with a 36-hour oxygen supply and a chemical filter for absorbing the ex- haled carbon dioxide. Instead of the triple-plated glass port holes used in Dr. Hartman's ear- lier experiments, the improved in- vention has several telescopes, each fitted with a number of small disks or prisms of magnifying power. There is also a periscope, a radio outfit, a telephone, an ozone generator and varioys instruments for recording temperature and pressure installed in_the interior of the chamber. Powerful flluminators of high ac- tinic quality and a deep-sea motion picture camera are inclosed in ex- terior projections controlled from within. An ever-present danger is the break- age or entanglement of the support. g cable. In the event of this the operator will press an itch which releases the ighted battery box at the bottom of the cylinder. Maintaining its perpendicular suspension by means of three electrically-driven propellers, the cylinder will instantly ascend to the surface. After the maximum pressure re- sistance of the present cylinder has been gradually tested, a_process re- quiring a year or more, Dr. Hartman proposes to bufld another apparatus of a more complicated design, in which he will attempt to reach’ the extreme ocean depths.
