namorr, Mich., Nov. L-"Bmil- mg Jack" Adams, manager of De- irolvs newly-christened Red Winzs, formerly called the Falcons, of the National Hockey Icarus. 18 Itmd- mg knee-deep in hockey P191!!!" this season and still he is only faint- 1y optimistic about the prospects.

The trouble, Adams says, is that his mob of buigirg-muscled young athletes are all ill the doubtful ,ggge_that is, except a few of last ysufls regulars and John Ross Roach, newly purchased goalie.

Flooded With Players

It all came about when the Chi- cago Shamrocks of the "Outlaw" ‘American League, with the consent of Prank Calder, National League wesident, agreed to disband and were taken back into the fold 0' organized hockey. Most of the Shamrocks came to Detroit, and indams found himself shaking [ands with 26 hockey players, all desirous of remaining with r team that carries only about 14 men through the regular season. He even has four goalies.

Detroit lost four good: men when Ottawa decided to resume its fran- chise this year. The four, Hec. Kil- rea, Danny Cox, Alex Connell an ‘Alex Smith, were loaned to the Dc- trolt Club and returned this year to Ottawa.

Nevertheless, Adams already has developed three strong fol-war lines from his throng of players, On the first line he has Ebble Goodfellow, one of the league's best sharpshootcrs L,arry Auris and Herbie Iewis, all regulars last year. ‘rhnee former Shamrocks, Eddie Wise-man, Jack Riley and Tony Pre. leznick make up the tentative sec- ond line. In the third is Frank Carson and "Happy" Emms oi last year's squad, and Gordon "‘"i.'ison of the Shamrocks.

Veterans for Defense Tile defense probably will include the veteran Reg Noble and Doug-

ins Young of the old Falcons with ‘

Ralph Taylor and Walter Buswell, former Shamrock, to relieve them. Roach, purchased a few weeks ago from the New York Rangers, will hold the goalies lob, with Mike Karakas, Shamrock goalminde , and a couple oi others in reserve. ltfost of the remaining players will be delegated to the Detroit O1- ympics, International league team, for tryouts and possible berths. Borne wil have to be cut loose be- fore the season gets under way, The Red Wings meet the Chi- oam Biackhawks at home in the season opener on November l0.

Sportsman Suicides In

N. YQStore

(Associated Prue)

NEW YORK, Nov. l.—Joseph M. Madden, .well known turfman oi Louisville, Ky, committed suicide in a. New York sporting goods store today with a pistol he had a clerk hand him from a show case.

The reason for his act remained a mystery tonight. The contents oi notes to his wife and his attor- ney, found in his pocket, were not disclosed. He had been staying at a hotel here with Mrs. Madden and their two young children.

Madden and his brother Edward were left an estate oi about $2,000,- 000 by their father, John E. Mad- den, “wizard of the turf," who died two years ago. It included a. horse breeding establishment which won the elder Madden a world-wide re- putation and produced five win- ncrs of the Kentucky Derby-Old Rosebud, Paul Jones, Zev Flying Ebony, and Sir Barton, later bought by Commander J. K. L. Ross, oi Montreal.

Madden visited the sporting goods store today ostensibly to buy some ammunition. I-Ie asked for .38 calibre bullets, and then told John P. Schaefler he thought they would not fit his pistol.

“Hand me that gun," he said, pointing at one in the showcase, "and I'll show you what I mean."

He snapped two bullets into the chambers, put the weapon to his head and pulled the trigger before the astonished ci- r1; could inter- fore.

Five “Eluenose Men Released Pending Trial

PROVIDENCE, R. 1., Nov. 1.—

iifiiiAPJ-Nine men brought here

aboard the Nova scotia motor vessel Malbo, seized of! Sakonnct Point early Saturday, were released under heavy bail, after arraignment before U. S. Commissioner Archibald C. Matteson on charges of possessing and transporting intoxicating li-- quors, to which all pleaded notl guilty. Preliminary trial was set for Nov. 12.

The Malbo, an 85-foot boat, powered with two 1,200 horse- power engines, carried 1.200 sacks of imported whiskies when seized by Coast Guardsmen oi the Price's Neck Station, Newport, after receipt of a. mysterious telephone message, ofllclals stated. The alleged liquor was removed to storage in this city.

ARE CREW

Five of the men aboard the Mal- bo composed the actual crew, of- ficials said, while the others were believed to be members oi a land- ing party, which had met the Mal- bo in a dory.

Those arraigned are: Herman Baker, Lunenburg; Harvey Ran- dall, Upper LaHava; Albert Crouse, Middle Ilallavo: Ulin Crouse, North LaHave, and James Williams, Hali- fax, and Edward Welch, Fair Hav- en, Mass; Thursman Durfee Sakon- net Point; Victor Sllveria, Bakon- net Point, and Milton P. Healy, Ti- verton.

Healy was released under $3,500 bail and the other under $2.500 bail each.

The Malbc‘s papers show her to be registered to George Morton Morrel, oi Digby, that she cleared Yarmouth on October 25, and that she had made thre contacts in waters off the New England 80019-

The Malbo was built at Shelburne in 1929 and was formerly T981991“ ed at Halifax. Shortly after being launched the boat was taken to Halifax and remained in port for some weeks. At that time it W" claimed that she was to go fishing. but on her first trip out was seized by the Coast Guard and later re- leased, still latelnher registry was changed to that of St. John's, New- foundland.

the opportunity of being here this evening at your annual Fox Show. I believe this is an excellent means of advertising the splendid quality of our Fox Furs and also of stim- ulating an interest in keeping up the high quality of our product.

"This Fox Exhibition has a par- ticular interest for me, on account of the ‘experience I had in fox farm- ing when the industry was young in this Province; and, if my ex- perience is worth anything to you. fox breeders, present, I would ad- vise you, at this time, when prices are low, to take every opportunity to develop a high grade of the par- ticular type of fur which the mar- ket‘ is demanding.

"I must congratulate you, Mr. President, and those associated with you on what promises to be a

it as any is the statement of Mr. Ruei, after his years of association with the Canadian National system,‘ that he does not believe in public ownership. ‘ "My experience of public owner- ship of Railways has been that it means government ownership, he‘! told the commissioners.

“You mean poitical ownership." Sir Joseph Flavelle asked him." “Yes," Mr. Ruel returned.

Beatty’s Plan

“The plan of President Beatty ‘of the C. P. R. for the solution of the country's transportation diffi- culties, as revealed by the evidence. was for the government to lease, the C. N. R. to the C. P. R. for» a long term, or else 1n perpetuity. Mr. Beatty estimated that the C. P. R. management oi the two systems would result in ‘economies totalling $50,000,000 annually.

"In comment upon this scheme C. N. R. witnesses before the com- mission were inclined to shade Mr. Beattyb estimate of the savings possible under the plan. Th's would not amount, in their opinion to more than $30,000,000 annually- "Mr. Itue1's proposal was virtually temllflflfy amalgamation."

Thornton's Scheme

“Sir Henry Thornton's scheme will to keep both railways intact. but to provide some effective plan of enforcing cooperation in D1009

al was that a rump of the Itoyal commission should be left to act as a railway arbitral court, with authority to act to curb Compet- ition or bring about 60411101113910"- gu- Hem-y also guggesttd that the unwieldy C.

"It was sir Henry's scheme that the commission virtually ldilllttd- The integrity of the railways W88 preserved, the sures-sled rump o! the Royal Commission became the arbltral board, and the board of directors was slashed, even more drastically than Sir Henry had m- e = go the proposed execu- tive committee of three."

very ‘ul show, which I now cieclare formally open.“

Pioneer Present

lion. Dr. W. J. P. MacMllian, Acting Premier, referred to the ab- sence of Premier Stewart, who was absent recovering from a serious illness. It was pleasing that Pre- mier Stewart had been able to de- liver a radio address on Monday ev- ening on the loan, which the Can- aclian Government was floating, and that his message had been heard with unequalled clarity.

It was a happy coincidence, the ,

speaker remarked that the gentle- man who had declared the show open was known throughout the world as the “Father of the Silver Fox Industry." The romance of stories of the development of fur trading industry in the west by thc Hud- son Bay Company must take sec- ond place to the romance of the silver fox industry here. It was not given to every man to see _the in- dustry which he founded become an industry oi vast financial import- anoe, as had the Lieutenant Gov- erncr.

The persistence and energy of the directors in staging the show to as- sist in combattillg depression, was commendable, and placed before the world the declaration that Prince Edward Island foxes were free from disease. As Hon. W. M. Lea had said at the meeting of the Mari- time Board oi Trade, fox fanning was of great importance as it took nothing from the soil. The indus- try was one of the soundest, and freest from speculation of all in- dustrles now carried on here. There was never a glut on the fox mar- ket. Much credit was due the or- ganization which sponsored the show which brought P. E. I. foxes to the front as the highest of their kind in the world.

Important Industry

l-lon. W. M. Lea remarked that the fox industry depended entirely on the care taken of the animals. The depression was forcing people to value the things that were per- manent, and fox breeders, by care- ful selection, could breed animals of a still higher quality than was now produced. Practically all the income from the industry was clear gain. The reason why the depres- sion touched Prince Edward Island so lightly was that earnings were so equitably divided. The Fox Show and the Provincial Exhibition show- ed faith in the industries repre- scnted, by these features.

B a b e Ru th i Aids Daughter

NEW YORK, Oct. 31—Some. where in the process Babe Ruth himself must have figured, when Mrs. Helen Ruth, his first wife, was burned to death in 1929, her estate was estimated at about, P811100. When a transfer tax ap-

‘ho lost the second fall to Carroll‘ praisal was disclosed in Surrogate‘ i Gardner in a match for the world's

Court today, the estate was large enough to provide a $27,000 inher- itance for‘ Dorothy Ruth, daughter" oi the first Mrs. Ruth, Somebody had boosted the estate by $31,000, but court attaches said they need- ed only one guess. Inheritance taxation reduced the estate to thc total turned over to Miss Dorothy.

A Paying Industry l Hon. G. Shelton Sharp, Minister‘ of Agriculture, remarked on the fact that on the platform was the : man who ranched the first silver? foxes. The industry was still of great importance, though several Years ago it was believed Lea: Kl‘. saturation point had been reached This year the price had sharply ad- I vanced, due to the fact that fewer I foxes had been placed on the mnr- i ket. This province, had climatic. conditions unequalled for the pro-i duction oi a superior animal, andi had the additional advantage of i having the original stock fromi which the finest animals had been developed. This province would be to the fox as Jersey Island was to the cattle industry ,or as Scotland i ‘was to Clydesdales. Animals pro- duced in this province were scour-l lng the highest prices in the Lon- ' don and Montreal markets. There "("1111 IIWBYI be a saic for out- standing animals for breeding pur- ' poses. The speaker was convinced that every ‘firmer should have a small ranch connected with his farm. Last year the fox industry . had paid the ranchers, and this year the prices had advanced. l-ie did ‘not believe that the production ' would ever exceed consumption, as v other countries could not breed anl. mals of the outstanding quality pro- duced in Prince Edward Island. The disease which had been pre- valent here a. year ago, had been’ capitalized in other provinces. The Canadian Fox Breeders’ Associa- tion carried on experiments with a view of finding a. remedy for thc disease, and had been to a certain extent successful.

Tribute Paid ‘ _ i

His Worship Mayor Stewart paizi a tribute to the fox breeders who had brought a. new industly into the Province. The speaker was not Sllfwilcd that Island foxes were of a superior quality, as other products such as lamb, butter, and turkeys were always superior. The climate and food of Prince Edward Island perpetuated the high quality of the animals. The Imperial Conference opened up new avenues oi trade, but products should be put up in the best possible manner to retain foreign markets.

His W rship commented unfav- orably on the operating of the snow plough during recent winters on the roads in the vicinity of the city, as traffic was made difficult on those roads in early spring due to the fact that they were bare oi snow. In this way, he stated, the city and the rural districts were kept apart.

Contributes to Prosperity

Mr, James Paton, President oi the Provincial Exhibition, spoke as follows: "It gives lne pleasure in congratulating thc Silver Fox Ex- hlbition Association, for again giv- ing the fox breeders of this Pro- vince and throughout the Dominion an opportunity of exhibiting their stock, and competing for awards which will prove of much value to‘ the winners. To those who are not successful, the educational experi- ence may be of more value than‘ the money prizes won by competi-g tors. It is said that there are 24 species oi foxes known throughouti the continents of the world. Im-i portation of fox pelts is no new‘ thing in the British fur markets» Over 50 years ago an average of 1,- 600 silver pelts were imported an- nually. To study and watch thc movements oi the timid and sus-l plcious little fox, you who are breed-y ers must derive much pleasure. In] days gone by the fox was the pcstI
