President Wilson sent word to Vice
President Marshall today that he
wished to address the senate on the
subject of foreign relations. Arrange.

up at once. 1t is said that no other
president since Washington has made
such an appearance. The president
divulged the purpose of his appear

supposed that it had to do with the

One opinion generally current was
that it was concerned with the pos

some of the largest concerns in. stbe country. a
 In criticism of the law concernlRg the taking of Taccoons, which was -en acted at the last session. of the lexis lature Chapter 130. acts of 1915l, sAL-. Beebc states that it was a sad Inis- take to put the dates for the close season March 1 to Sept. 1, inclusive these dates should read: March ,-15 to Oct 31, inclusive. which would make the open season in the fall be- gin on Nov. 1. Here are. five gdod reasons which are given. for making this change:
 First: Thousands of dollars are lost by those who shoot or trap raccuons before Nov. 1, and hundreds of imfna- lure and unprime skins bring the urQ- ducers from ten cents to a dollar that would, had they been left until, Nbt. l or later, have been worth $2.5O tQ,45 each. ,
 Second; Tn the months of Septem5s sr and October the young are still fol- lowing their mother, and whole faEii4- lies are frequently treed by the d6es and slaughtered by the hunters. when the belts of the youngsters bring pf&e- tically nothing, and that of the mOfher which two months later would bring from $2.50 to S3, is now sacrificed fer 50 cents or a dollar at most.
 Third: While the dealers get thelr profits on. the 'sscabs' as worthless belts are called, the same as on strict ly first grade goods the consumer ire quently finds that what was supposed to be the latter when purchased proves a humbug, because of the scar city of prime and abundance of u4i5- prime raw material thrust upon the market by the greedy hunters, who catch. the animals early for fear that the other fellow. will get them ifohs doesn't. --rat
 Fourth: With but one excepti6H. Connecticut is the only state In fie Union (where these furs are marlasu- able), which does not properly protect raccoons.
 Fifth: The fact that the New York state laws prohibit the taking Of theee animals before Nov. T, is responsible for hunters and trappers- from that state coming over into Connecticut In September and October. ana robBlng us of our game -animals~( and fncideaiL talIy-illegally, of course but none tiIs less true-olir birds, tcoOa The tema5- tations of these poachers would vaFIz ish if our laws conform with ti1eirBhu 2 MT.
