Replying to numerous requests for

Been Wife of Sailor at Time
of Alleged Proposal

SCHENECTADY, N. Y, Oct. 4.-The
defenseof Cornelius Vanderbilt Whit
ney, son of Harry Payne Whitney, who
is the defendant in a million-dollar
breach of promise suit instituted by
Evan Burrows Fontaine, a dancer, was
indicated when the case was called be-
tore Justice Borst in the Supreme
Court here to-day. Counsel for vounr
whitney declared that there was no
basis for action, inasmuch as Miss Fon-
tame was married at the time the de-
ttendant was alleged to have promised
to make her his wife.
1t was brought out during to-dav's
proceedings that Miss Fontaine had been
mrrled to Sterling E. Adar, sailor,
and that the marriage had been an
nulied. James A. Leary of Whitney's
counsel, introduced as evidence letters
alleged to have been written to Adair
by Miss fontaine. The missives were
OF an amorous nature and were pro-
duced to show that Miss Fontaine's al
legations that she had never lived with
the sailor were false. Mr.. Leary also
presented affidavits to show that Adair
and Miss Fontaine had lived as man and
wife at hotels in New York, Newport
News and Hoboken.
Justice Borst reserved decision in
to-day's action, which was brought bv

ceptance of service by the defendant

Knud Rasmussen and Fridtjof Nam

arctic regions is in the field Of music.
For years he studied and faithfully

Eskimo, he says, is obliged to compose
his own song. and no person may sing
