PLEA ron THE RoosrEa. ]
Danger Of Depletion Of Country's Poui-
try Supply in Present Agitation.

try Supply in Present Agitation.
Chicago. April 5.--Arguing that the
country's supply Of poultry is threaten
ed by an undue slaughter Of ROSTERS
II. B. Patton, of Bloomington. ILL.,, pres
ident of the National Poultry, Butter
and Egg Association. has issued a
warning in the current number OF the
associations bulletin in which he
pleads for the monarch OF the barn
yard.
Il am not arguing which was first,
the egg or the chicken" says Mr.. Pat
ton, but the question does loom up be-
fore me. which is most to be consider
ed, the chicken or the egg?"
After referring to the practice OF
killing a large percentage of ROSTERS In
the spring in the interests Of egg pro-
ducers, some sections having gone so
far as to consider the establishment OF
a swat the rooster day." the associa-
tons head said:
mot many years ago central Illinois
furnished good supply Of poultry I'M
til March l, but of late by Jan. ! the
harvest Is past and but little poultry is
left for the cleaners.
II have a suspicion that swattlng the
rooster has had no small part IN
bringing about this change in the late
seasons supply. In these days OF I'M
der production and over consumption
full poultry crop is desirable and need
ed to help feed the world"

) KENYON LINES UP m.
FOR WAR RESOLUTION

L 10 ~ IN Y - w. v y
washington, April 5.--Saying this
was time for 100 per cent American
ism. deploring war. but saying some
things are worse than war, Senator
Kenyon spoke in the senate and aligned
himself among the supporters Of the
war resolution.
He said this was weighty hour
with the republic, that great prepare
ton was needed and that the war
would not be fought with speeches at
banquets nor applause in senate gal
leries but he would vote for this reso-
luton to prevent division OF counsel.
He declared against foreign alliances.
In part he said:
I'm such a time the spirit Of self
ishness lin our nation must be de-
throned, no one for himself and every
one for his country, should be our
motto.
Let us forget for while the maxi
ing Of money. Let us realize that
everyone must bear a part Of the sac
rifice and burden. Those who in this
time Of national emergency will try to
make excessive profit, either in the
manufacture of those things which the
government must have to carry on war
or by combinations to raise the prices
of things the people must have to 1--we
are just as guilty of treason as those
who give aid and comfort to the enc
my. They should be treated as enc
mics Of the republic.
mot with hope of reward does this
republic draw the sword. not with lust
OF power. not for the conquest Of the
territory. but solely as In the Spanish
war. for humanity and the preservation
of it's ideals
when peace comes, which God
grant may be soon, when all the peo-
pies of Europe may be free from the

dence and guidance Of the Almighty.

 0F CHANGE MADE IN CITY CHARTER
Confusion Caused in Courts
 Here by Unfamiliafity With Revisions.

Practice of lawyers in the city court has recently undergone some distinct changes. which IS causing some con fusion among lawyers in this city. For the purpose of informing all lawyers in Bridgeport of the changes made in the city charter during the last session of the general assembly City Court Clerk Theodore B.

.COCCHI CAN'T BE ExTRADITED
 LAWYER SAYS
Has Been Called Under Colors- rs-New Evidence in
 Investigation.

Bologna, June 2S-Signor ventur- ini, attorney for Alfredo Cocchi, con fessed slayer of Ruth Cruger, the New York girl expressed to the Associated Press yesterday his indignation at not having been permitted to see the papers of the prisoners confession.
 'tI think,'' said the attorney, that the examination of witnesses is taking a long time, disproportionate to the slight evidence which can be pro- vided by those who lived over here so far from the scene of the tragedy.
 'The judge promised me the papers in few days. Only then will know how the crime was committed and what actually occurred in Cocchi's shop What seems to me indisputa-
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-06-28

ble Is that Cocchi, owing to Italian laws, cannot be extradited even if meanwhile he had become a natural ized American, since Italy still claims him as an Italian subject, having been called under the colors."
 Signor Venturini, 25 years ago was one of the most famous criminal law yers in Italy. He is now 75 years old and exceedingly alert.
 New York, June 2S-The investi- gation of the methods employed by the police department to solve the mystery of the disappearance of Ruth Cruger, the high school girl who was murdered here last February, was continued today with Capt. Alonzo Cooper of the department as one of the first witnesses.
 It was said today that evidence Of importance had been discovered by Mrs. Grace Humiston, whose efforts led to the finding of the murdered girls body, which bear out her con- tention that Cocchi was a member of a white slave ring operating here and in Mexico.
 Testimony has shown that the rec ords of the police department book had been altered regarding the time the disappearance of the Cruger girl was reported to the police.
