REVENGE IN FOREST FIRES
Strong Evidence of Spite Work on

by Telegraph 70 The Tribune

Albany Oct. 50-It learned from q trust
worthy source to-day that agents Of the state.
through an investigation now in progress under
the direction Of the State Forest, Fish and Game
Commission have secured evidence. which is looked
sufficient to warrant prosecution, that some
of the recent fires within the preserve of William
Rockefeller in Hamilton County were the result
Of spite. It appears that those responsible for the
fires believe they have a grievance against the
wealthy owner OF the preserve. Arrests are likely

For years Mr.. Rockefeller has had disputes
with residents Hamilton County u their
right TO enter his preserve to fish and hunt
game. In instance q long legal battle fol-
lowed. which decided in favor Of Mr.. Rookie
feIler Since then urfriendly feeling against him
has developed
While the forest fires were raging recently IN
the AdirondaCks several times fire broke out with
in MT. RockefeIers preserve without any apparent
reason. In instances, Il appears. the state
had difficulty in securing sufficient men to fight

ALLEGED ART FRAUDS DISCOVERED.
Appraiser and Collector Say Canvases Were
Inscribed with False Names

George ". Wenmaker. Appraiser OF the Port,
and Collector Fowler believe they have discovered
a scheme originating in Paris to impose the
public by the sale OF paintings with false
attached. thereby giving the paintings fictitious
value
Mr. Wanrneker became suspicious when his
anlIners found importations Of paintings daubed
over in the corners Of the canvases in such way
as easily to attract attention. When the surface
paint removed Of the canvases were
found inscribed with the names OF such masters as
Diaz, Corot Rousseau and others of almost
equal fame It also found that the paintings
appeared to be entered at Paris at much larger
valuation than the actual worth Of the works.
