The Union Mutuai's Claim.

President Dewitt, of the Union Mutual, speak.
ing of the Associated Press despatch Saturday
concerning the mortgage held by his company on
the Chicago University has stated that the latter
part of the despatch saying he had made an ap-
pointment with the trustees of the University is
incorrect, as he has had no communication with
them for long time. in his judgment opportuni-
ties for the redemption of the property have been
lost during the past year. The board of directors
of the Union Mutual Life InsuranceEsC Company
has before it now cash offer of $4,000 for the
property as soon as the right of redemption ex-
pires. The value of the property having been
placed by experts at nearly half million, includ-
ing buildings and all, and the insurance company
having in hand an offer exceeding the redemption
price of the property, it is not likely that they will
consider the small offer of $4,000 talked of by
the University trustees.
