spection tour we bumped into
Johnny Farrell, part owner of this
plant. Farrell, resident of Co
vans, just returned on Saturday
from California and he looked
sharp" as the flappers express it
nowadays.
Dad" as he is known to the
racing world, has six horses here
and was tickled pink when they
showed him some nifty stepping
at three-eighths of a mile.
Then over among the barns be-
yond the seven-eighths pole we ran
into Elmer Tru man, who handles
the horses belonging to Raj Parr

Mortistown, N. ].

we hove into view Trueman
greeted us with II just can't
winter anywhere but Bowie,
and as a training ground 1t
just can't be beat.
I'm sending my string at full
speed now, and / guess every other
trainer on the ground is doing
likewise, for we want to be ready
for the opening of the Eastern
racing season re on April b.

in the turf world because he owns
the stallion John p. Grier. Two Of
the get of John p. Grier-are owned

the property of Freeman, is being
handled by Trueman. Two-year-old
colts. one by Omar Khayyam-May
Blossom, and the other by Macken-
zie II.Hiker belong to Armstrong.
Trueman in addition to handling
these youngsters is grooming
Charles H., Corporal. Apple Pie,

NEW YORK, Nov, 19, (P)-In be- half of the owners of the British steamship Vestris, which sank last week of the coast of Hampton Roads and in which over 100 lives were lost, that they cautioned the Captain of the steamer to delay sending out s o s calls, focuses attention on the radio messages obtained by Federal Attorney Tut tie, on David Cook, vice president; and SanderSon & Son, American agents for the Lamport & Holt Line.
 The company representative de- clared We had no message from Captain Carey
 UNTIL AFTER WE HAD asked him what the trouble was. The first we knew of any trouble was at 1915 Monday morning when somebody at station w o It called up and asked us if we had heard of the s o s signals which the Vestris was sending ant.
 T immediately rang up the Ra- dio Marine Corporation and asked them for details which they gave me. I then instructed them to send a wireless to Captain Carey asking him what the trouble was and his reply was the first communlca- ton we had had from him."
 Attorney Futile has subpoenaed the radio files of merchant ships, including the Voltaire of the Lam port Line, which was the nearest of it's ships to the Vestris. He also obtained Navy records of all radio messages concerning the VeStrlS.
 John Boxil, negro Stoker, testl- fled that officers and the crew did not believe that the Vestris would sink but thought they would have to be lowed in and wished the Vol tairs to do this in order to save salvage fees.
