FOX FARMING IS
ENCOURAGED BY
THE GOVERNMENT
Washington, July 25 A. number of
Canadians have written, to . the De
partment of Commerce -seeking to buy
some Of the blue and silver foxes from
the government's preserves In Alaska,
but no citizen of " the ' United States
has made similar requests, although
the department is anxious to get some
Americans to go in for fox breeding.
Assistant Secretary Sweet declared
today that good profits await those
who take up the industry. The gov
ernment, he Bald, has a number of
small islands " off the Alaskan coast
which it will lease to any one who
desires them for fox "farming, and at
the same time the government will
furnisht breeding anlniajs at low
prices.
There are several fox raising estab
lishments In Canada, said Mr. Sweet,
which are reported to be making big
profits and as the skins bring fancy
prices in London, center of the fur
selling trade, he thought citizens of
the United States should be reaping
part of the returns.
MANY VACANCIES
AT WEST POINT
Washington, July 25 To carry but
the intent of Congress that nominees
for admission to the Military Acad
emy at West Point shall have ample
opportunity to prepare themselves for
the severe entrance examination, the
War Department has published a list
of the vacancies for which candidates
have not yet been designated by Sen
ators and Congressmen.
The entrance examinations will take
place next March. Twenty-six Sena
tors so far have not made nomin-
ationse and In the forty-four states
and the territory of Alaska anywhere
from one to eighteen congressional
districts remain unrepresented on the
list of candidates. In Pennsylvania
alone there are 18 vacancies, in New
York 14 and in Illinois 12.
Waterbury, July 25 That the trial
of Mies Dora Podoloffr charged with
perjury, win not take more than a
aay or two in th city court, if the
testimony is conflned strictly to the
issue in question, is the opinion ex
pressed by Prosecuting Attorney Mc
Grath. Attorney Garvan of New
York, formerly assistant to the dis
trict attorney, Is interested in the case,
and he is to be here when the hear
ing is held. He was unable to be
present yesterday when the case was
called in the city court, so adjourn
ment was taken until next Tuesday
morning. Prosecuting Attorney Mc
Grath will handle the state's side of
the case and it is expected that At
torneys Benjamin Slade of New Haven
and Jacob Klein of Bridgeport will
also be on hand, -these two lawyers
having been Maurice Soloway's coun
sel during the trial of the arson case.
Attorney Willun J. McKenna of
New Haven .will look after Miss Po-
doloff's interests and it is said that it
was Attorney McKenna who first
learned that Miss Podoloff knew some
thing -regarding the fire in Waterbury,
the burning of the warehouse of Sol
oway. & Katz, as a result of which
Soloway was arrested. It came out
during the arson trial that Attorney
Benedict' Holden of New York, rep
resenting the interested Insurance
companies, engaged Attorney McKen
na to look after the New Haven end
of the case.
Miss Podoloff insisted again yester
day that . she was absolutely Innocent
of the charge brought aerainst her.
and said she had no doubt but that
the court would discharge hers
am Innocent,' declared the little wom
an charged with perjury, "and my
conscience is clear. Absolutely clear,
too, and I am not worrying, because
I know I speak but, the truth. There
are honest courts in this country, and
that is why I am sure I am going to
be discharged. It seems like a hor
rible nightmare, but it will pass away,
and then all the people will know
that I did not lie on the witness
stand." .
David Kligerman of New Haven,
who went bonds for Miss Podoloff for
the sum of $1,500, says he was "drawn
into the Soloway matter," 1 until now
he is sick and tired of It, although
he is confident that Miss Podoloff is
innocent. Mr. Kligerman says that
on February 8, 1913, he was approach
ed by Attorney Benjamin Slade on
Orange street in New Haven and At
torney Slade said he wanted to see
him at his office. "Mr, Slade asked
me if I wouldn t act as a peacemaker,
and simply as a peacemaker. 1
didn't want anything to do With- the
case one way or the other, but decid
ed I would try to do something for
the benefit of the community. Solo
way & Katz ran three stores,' one in
Hartford, one in New Haven,, and one
In Waterbury. There was trouble at
all of them. Attorney Slade told me,
and promised me, a thousand times,
two thousand times, that J would not
be called as a witness when the Solo
way matter came up in court in Wat
erbury. He did not keep his prom
ise. He asked me to testify for a
short while, but I told him I would
talk for the court, but not for him.
I didn't testify at ay."
"I am sick and tired of the whole
business," declared Mr. Kligerman,
"as. the respectable people of New
Haven are disgusted with the whole
case. It is making prejudices against
the Hebrews, and is causing innocent
people to suffer along with the guilty.
I wish f1 the whole matter was over
with. It Is too tbad a case for respec
table people to become mixed up in.
And my whole .connection with the
case was simply as a peacemaker, and
Mr. Benjamin Slade didn't keep his
word, either. I tried to do a- good
turn, and that's all I had to do with
the case."
It Is expected that when the case is
called on Tuesday some sensational
disclosures will be made. Miss Podo
loff said that although a lawyer tried
to make-her sign a paper saying she
lied in the Soloway case; she refused,
and wouldn't have anything to do with
the matter. She also said she had
awcrn to tell the truth, and that was
just what she had done. The. state,
however, is said to have photographs
of a certain letter alleged to have
been written by Miss Podoloff.
Attorney Slade, interviewed in New
Haven, was asked If he would express
himself as to an alleged conspiracy
against his client (Soloway) he said
he would not, but he called attention
to an article in a newspaper In which
it was. stated that Louis Katz, a broth
er of Samuel Katz, of the firm of
Soloway & Katz, had made a confes
sion subsequent to his arrest in New
York, in which he stated that his tes
timony in the case of arson against
Maurice Soloway was "framed up." It
was stated that he so testified under
promise of reward.
"I know that reward was paid,"
said Attorney Slade, "and who paid
It."
Attorney Slade further said that
the confession of Louis Katz Implicat
ed several attorneys for insurance
companies. .

"Art" French Has Request to
Write Again Words He Wrote
Four Decades Ago
Recalls the Old Bridgeport Min

Used to Sing in Those
Olden Days
Arthur W. French the dean of bal
lad song word originating and writing,
was in the Farmer office to-day and
a walking smile at that. So a report
er had the nerve to apply the inter
view pump. The well known song
builder intimated that just nowadays,
he was harking back some, adding
with a letter in hand and a reminis
cent gleam of the eyes, that said let
ter came to him lately, from a com
poser in Chicago, who requested that
Mr. French would write the former
words for several ballads at once. The
song man said that he did a remem
brance stunt and consulting his rec
ords, found that he had written the
aforesaid composer a - song in 1870,
over 40 years ago. Aftar that there
was no correspondence, until now.
Recovered from his surprise, the
song writer has set to work on the
desired ballads. Both he of the mel
ody and he of the muse, are in their
sunny "sixties," but - evidently after
the passing of four decades can make
good "coming across," as they did in
the yesteryears.
The song man said, further, that
the "seventies," were the heydays of
his origination and he worked then on
prolific street, overtime, into the mid
night kerosene.
'This has been a 'memory reun
ion" summer to me," said Mr. French
'.'I've learned that Charles E. Pratt,
the long ago notable composer for a
number- of my songs,- is still alive In
New York and at the age of 75 is ar

is Will A. Huntley of Providence, the
old time artistic Iban joist, sweet sing
er and composer of many songs, in
cluding my "Touch the Harp Gently,
"Speak Only Speak," "Take me Back
to Home and Mother," with other ap
preciated ballads of forty years ago."
