Dr. Sturm Demands $100,000 for Putting Through "Deal" Between Berlin Physi? cian and Eisner. BROTHER ALSO MAY ACT Turtle Germ Discoverer Asked to Produce Contract Which Commercialized "Secret" ?Plaintiff Maintains He Was Threatened. Dr. Friedri-lt Franz Friedmann ad? mitted yesterday ihat lie was served on Saturday with papers in a suit in which his recently deposed adviser. Dr. Maurice A. Sturm, is the plaintiff. As ?>rding to the allegations in Dr. Sturm's complaint he regards himsc't as responsible for the famous "deal'' by ??huh the Fricdmann "secret" passed into the hands of Moritz Ets ncr. Dr. Sturm said yesterday he was si; ing for $100,?Ha?. or B per cent commis? sion on the ?f-'.?*tOfiOO, ??Inch he beli?v. s is the "price'' in cash and stock issu.-s vhich the turtle germ discoverer is to receive from Eisner. Dr. Sturm also declared Dr. Arthur C H. Fri? dmann was a co-plaintiff In the suit, as having been associated with him (Dr.Sturm) in bringing Eisner and the doctor together in the turtle germ dial, but Dr. Arthur Friedmann's lawyer, Walter E. Ernst. vf Nu. 1 Madison avenue, said last night his client had not brought suit, but only contemplated doing so. When two process servers arrived at the Majestic Hotel Saturday afternoon about ? o'clock and found their way to the neiv Friedmann headquarters, in Room 208, Dr. Dwlnell and Captain Arnold, of the Rhode Island Coast Ar? tillery, rushed out and tried to keep them from getting to the Berlin physi? cian. Curiosity Doctor's Undoing. The doctor's curiosity, however, over? came him. He came out, wanting to know what the fuss was about. The "paper" was then placed in his ham!. ?What's this, what's this?" he said. "Show it to your attorney," said the disappearing process server. According to the allegations in Dr. Sturm's complain:. Dr. Friedmann em? powered him to find a purchaser for the "turtle germ cure," and the first meeting between Eisner and Fried? mann took place in Dr. Sturm's office in the Ansonla. Dr. Sturm maintained yesterday that Eisner had bt en very eager to obtain th?- ? turtle germ cure," and had bee.i to see him several times, urging him to do everything in hit; power to brin? about a contract. "I am a stockholder in the Elsner Mtndel-on Company," said Dr. Sturm, "and know Eisner well. He came to me and begged ras to use my influence with "F. F.," and oiTered me every in gfl', m. nt. He said I could have the Brooklyn Bridge and the Woolworth Building if the deal went through." The plaintiff says he did not sue Eis? ner because he regarded Dr. Frredman*i as th-- n\?ner of the "property" and considered himself the doctor's agert in the transaction. Dr. Sturm demands that Dr. Fried? mann produce the contract, which has been hitherto kept secret by both Friedmann and Eisner, arid his attor? neys demand that Dr. Friedmann file ;, bond to secure the plaintiff against i possible return to Germany before the trial of the action. Everything went well, according to Or. Sturm, after the signing of the Eib-ner-Friedmann contract until Dr. Sturm ? xjiressed his disapproval of certain phases of the "Eisner distri? bution plan," which he called "un? ethical." Or. Sturm was bitter in his denun? ciation of certain persons who he ?aid had made threats of various sorts ??j sik-nct him. They had even gone < ontlnit-d on third paar, fifth rolumn.

This indictment of New Vork BtStl I oldest penal lrustitution is embodied in j the report mad.- by Q**orge *V.

The worst feature?that dealing witl. jtftaj morals of th? convicts?Mr. Blake' says cannot be discussed in a public i document, but shou'd be called to the immediate attention of those compe? tent to deal with the situation. The investigator describes conditions as "frightful." The prison cells, ho says, are dark, small, damp, filthy and infested with vermin. In them men contract rheumatism and go out crip- ? pled for life. Into none of the cells on the lower tiers has a ray of sun? shine entered for eighty yean. Mr. Hlak?- asseris that ?because of in? fluence exerted by m?-n well known in various walks of life money has ben wrung from ? ersons seeking clemency for prisoners, but in some eases th? commutations and pardons bought w.r.: "not ?leliven 1."

REFERENDUM TOO DILATORY Viscount Chinda Holds That Renewal of Existing Convention Is Doubtful While Issue Is Unsettled?Senate May Block Mediation. (From The Tribun? Bureau. 1 "Washington, May 11. ? Coincident with the dispatch to-night by Secre- ? tary Bryan of the State Department Of a Ishej Sill to Governor Hiram W. j Johnson, of California, requesting him. to veto th* alien land bill, attention is directed to the attitude of Viscount Chinda, the Japanese Ambassador, who has courteously but firmly repre? sented that his government looks lor an agreement from the United State? before Aujust IM, when the present treaty with Japan expires, to arbitr?t?? the questions involved before The Hague Tribunal. Secretary Bryan's telegram, which bears to-day's date, and which was ma?l?; public at the White House, waa as follows: "Msy 11, 1913. "Hon. Hiram W. Johnson, Governor,? Sacramento. Cal: "The Preiident dir?ct? m? to exprese* his appreciation of your courtesy in de? i laying action on the land bill now be? fore you until ?ta provisions could be communicated to the Japanese govern? ment and conaidered by it. "Hia Excellency, Baron Chinda, has, on behalf of hia government, presentad ' an earneit protest against the measure. \ As you have before you only two courses, viz.: To approve or to veto, j it will avail nothing to recall to your attention the amendments suggested to | the Legislature, and as the President ! haB already laid before you hia views , upon the subject it is unnecessary to , reiterate them. "He passes over questions affectingn ; treaty rights for two reaaona; first, be- j cause the bill passed by the Legislature i j is avowedly intended to conform to: treaty obligations, and, second, because ' any conflict complained of would be a ! matter for the courts, but the Presi ! dent feels justified in expressing again his desire that action on the subject be deferred for this session, and h? ex? presses the desire the more freely be? cause the Legislature can be recon i vened at any time if the welfar? of the state requires it. "He is fully alive to the importance i of removing any root of discord which i may create antagonism between Amer? ican citizens and the subjects of' Oriented nations residing here, but he ' is impelled by a sense of duty to ex ; press the hope that you will see fit to allow time for diplomatic effort. The nations affected by the proposed law i are friendly nations?nations that hav? 1 shown themselves willing to co-operate ' in the establishment of harmonious re ? lations between their people and ours. "If a postponement commends itself ', to your judgment the President will be ! pleased to co-operate in a systematic | effort to discover and correct any evil? ? that may ?xist in connection with la**** ownership by aliens. "W. J. BRYAN." Skeptical of Success. M.-mlicis of the California delegation ! in i'ongrcss when asked this evening for their views regarding the probable ! effect of the President's final appeal to Governor Johnson were emphatic in th? ir expressions of belief that it would prove of no avail They asserted that the anti-alien bill appealed to and waa demanded by precisely those classes of VOten OB whom Governor Johnson al? ways had depended and always must depend for political support, and they asserted their conviction that the Pro? gressive ?Jovernor would be the last i politician to forego the opportunity of promoting his personal pohtu al popu- I larity presented by this measure. Secret.***** Hryun's communication 11 ISgSlded as making It clear that in ad? dition to his published statements ho relied largely in his personal appeal to the Governor and the leaders of the California Legislature on the diplo? matic reasons, and those principles of broad statesmanship which, in th? judgment of the President and him? self, should impel California to ab? stain from legislation of this character at this time, even though such legisla? tion were wholly within Its rights. It is remarked, however, by certain California members of Congress that in making such an appeal to Governor Johnson the Secretary of State was wasting his breath, because he waa speaking a language which Hiram Johnson could not understand." All the Californiums who could be
