Poroscopy and graphome try are two new "sciences" intended to make the way of the trapsgressor harder than it Is. Poroscopy is the science of measuring the pores of the body. Graphometry Is the science of form and relative proportion of let ters in handwriting. Dr. Edmund Locard, ' head of the Lyons police laboratory of Identifi cation, has elaborated these new meth ods of crime detection to a point where the results have been accepted in the Lyons courts and are said to have been proved effective. In poroscopy, Doctor Locard holds the number, form and position of .body pores remain the same throughout life. The impression of the pores in Doctor Locard'8 system Is colored by chemical vapors or very fine powders so they may be photographed under a microscope. Doctor Locard tells of .several suc cessful prosecutions supported by his new sciences. In one case a burglar wore gloves, but left an impression of i a small surface of forearm. That trace convicted him. Another burglar, perspiring freely, left the Impression of pore surfaces through his gloves and went to jail. Graphometry, as termed by Doctor Locard, consists primarily in the the ory that handwriting, shows always a certain relation In size between let ters and unmistakable characteristics in form, particularly In loops. In ad-t dition to these principles Doctor Lo card, of course, utilizes generally ac cepted methods of detecting forgeries.
