HARVEY HAS 40 MINUTE
TALK WITH POINCARE
Premier AUoids Discussing
u. S. Policy on Genoa.

PARIS. Jan. 80 ASSOCIATED Press) -
Myron T. Herrick. the American Ambas-
sador to France, and George Harvey.
Ambassador to Great Britain, were in
conversation to-day with Premier Poin-
care for nearly forty minutes. After
ward tire Ambassadors said that their
talk was of a general nature and that
it did not relate especially TO the Genoa
economic conference or to Franco-Amer-
ican relations.
Reference was made during the inter-
view to the general situation. but, ac-
cording to Mr.. Harvey and Mr.. Herrick,
the French Premier. contrary to expecta-
tions, failed to take advantage of the
opportunity to discuss the attitude of the
United States Government with regard
to the Genoa conference.
The fact that NJ Poincare did not
himself bring up the subject of the
Genoa conference or Franco-American
affairs prevented any definite discussion
OF these questions. The Premier asked
IL there had been any decision regard
ing American participation at Genoa.
He was told that the Ambassadors had
not been informed Of any decision.
Mr.. Harvey has postponed his depar-
ture for London for several days. He
said tonight, however. that he had no
further appointment TO see NJ. Poincaro
and would not again visit him unless
something developed which necessitated
a call.

SCIENTISTS TRY GAME
OF DUCKS AND BRAKES
Will Play With LiOe PdUns
on Long Island Farm.

A new game of "ducks and brakes"
was started yesterday at the State Agri-
cultural Institute at Farmingdale, l., L..
with 1870 feathered participants. the OBJ
ject of the game being TO determine why
the famous Long Island duck lays such
unsatisfactory eggs.
ID. A. Ahrens, head Of the poultry de-
partment of the institute. said the ex-
periment-which Is in diet--was inspired
by dissatisfaction of Long Island duck
raisers with low percentages of incuba-
ton. However ardently duck may
brood over her setting of eggs, she never
brings forth more than one duckling for
every other egg. he said.
A committee of duck raisers. headed
by A J. Halleck, known on Long Island
as the duck king" got together with
Mr.. Ahrsns and planned the experiment
on the theory that II was a case OF poor
nutrition. Comparing notes, they found
there was almost unanimous disagree
ment as TO what ducks and dralnes
should be fed.
SO six diet formulas were drawn UP,
the duck men contributed six sets" OF
ducks and drakes--17 ducks and three
brakes TO the pen--and they were put on
diet to determine which food produced
the best results.
The experiment will continue until
next October. when the incubating period
ends.

MISSING MAN HAD $4,000,
WAS FROZEN TO DEATH
Body Is Found by Children IN
a Deserted House.

The body of Charles Degraff. 60, who
disappeared from his home at Highland.
N. Y. last September. and who had
since been sought by the police OF that
city at the behest of his relatives. was
found yesterday on the second floor OF
a deserted old house on the outskirts of
Haverstraw. He had been frozen to
death.
A party of children who were sleigh
ing in the State road entered the house
and made the discovery. The clothing,
well worn and torn. led the children to
believe that the man had been n tramp.
A policeman and the Coroner searched
the mans pockets and found two bank
books showing deposits Of $4,000 to the
credit of Charles Degraff and Si2S In
cash.
The accounts were with the Highland
National Bank and the Poughkeepsic
Savings Bank. The Coroner notified the
Highland bank. and August Gersh. n
nephew. went to Haverstraw and estab-
lished Degraff's identity.
The Haverstraw authorities believe
Degraff had become confused while
wandering and walked into the old
house for shelter. He had been dead
about three days. IL was thought.
