nual convention If the national grange oil

day. Every state IN the Union is repre-.
sented. Standing committees were an,
nounced this morning.
Acting Master James Draper delivered an
annual address. He spoke of the flourish.
ing condition of the order. and said that
during the past year 1913 subordinate
oranges had been organized, the greatest in
crease being in North Carolina. Past ex-
perienee showed the organization had a
most perfect system in the supervision OF
it's legislative interests. He recommended
that some person with authority, acting
the for grange, be stationed in Washington
during the sessions OF Congress.
After criticising the action OF the United
States Senate in rejecting the bill to enlarge
the powers and duties of the department OF
agriculture, he turned his attention to
trusts, which he denounced as injurious to
the producer and consumer alike to an
extent unparalleled in the worlds history.
He also said: 1.-THE declaration OF pur-
poses of our order demands protection for
the weak, restraint upon the strong.
Equitable tariff legislation is an issue Sec
ond to none in this direction, and to ac-
eomplish anything one and all organized
power should demand the reduction oil
mighty roteetod industries tn correspond
with the protection agriculture is receiv-
ing, or else the increase OF protection to
agriculture that shall be equitable and just
to all concerned"
The annual meeting OF the Farmers Con-
gress OF the United States also began in this
city to-day. A roll-call showed thirty
states represented.

WASHINGTON, November 15.-The annual
report of the third assistant postmaster
general shows the postal service for the
last fiscal year, inclusive OF the amount
earned by subsidized Pacific railroad COM
panies for mail transportation, was $685.
1885, 6,OO4; postal and money order receipts
amounted to $50 ,695, ,176, leaving def
cheney of $5,43O,82S. The deficiency is
owing mainly to the great extension OF the
free delivery service and the Increase OF
railway mail transportation.
The statistics of letters, etc, transmit
ted during the year, which are the first
accurate statistics ever published by the
department, are: Letters mailed, 1,769,-

LIFE INSURANCE CASES.
A DECISION WHICH Is OF INTEREST
TO POLICY HOLDERS.

And Also to the Creditors of Estates-A
Policy Must be Paid to the Benefciar-
les Named if Proper Legal Hiers-An
Important Decision of the United
States Supreme Court.
WASHINGTON, November 14.-Ihe Su.
preme Court, through Chief Justice Fuller,
has rendered an opinion OF unusual interest
to holders of life insurance policies.
Thos. L. Hume. OF the District of Colum-
bia, died in 1881, totally insolvent, but
leaving $35, 900 in life insurance. The
policies were, by their terms, payable either
to the widow or. children OF the deceased.
The administrators and creditors of Hume's
estate sought to force the application
of the proceeds of the policies to the pay
ment of the debts due creditors on the
ground that the premiums paid by Hume
were by a fraudulent transfer OF an insol.
vent estate.
The Supreme Court holds that the bene-
ficiaries are entitled to the proceeds OF all
the policies without any deduction what
ever on account OF the premiums paid.
holding that tl,o husband and father has q
full right to insure his life in the interest OF
his wife and children, and that where such
policies are effected in the name of the bene-
ficiaries, they are no part OF the estate OF
the deceased, and therefore cannot be re-
garded as a fraudulent assignment OF any
part of his estate when so effected.

HARRISON,S IRISH FRIENDS.
Ihe Men Who Elected the Republican
Candidate Make a Reasonable Raouest

INDIANAPOLIS, November ID. - The
News" last evening printed this bit of
interesting political gossip: The first sug-
gestion that has been made to General
Harrison since his election regarding the
appointments come from leaders OF the
Irish anti.Ceyeland movement, four of
whom, DR.. Carroll OF Philadelphia, and
Messrs. Dewey, Brisbin and Ryan OF New
York, arrived in this city last Saturday
but returned to the east yesterday. Ef-
forts were made to prevent the public from
learning the purpose OF their visit, but
they did not hesitate to say they were
here in the interest OF representative
American OF extraordinary ability whom
the Irish citizens would be pleased to see
HoNoRED BY THE ADMINISTRATION.
The representative American in whose
elevation they are interested is Wharton
Barker, the Philadelphia banker. When
Carroll and Dewey and others began their
political mission work in the Interest VI the
RepublicaI candidate they formed an or.
ganization known as the National Irish
American Protection Society, which as a
pOnJlcal movement was entlrely lndepend-
ent OF the Republican National Committee
and gave no little pecuniary aid in defray-
ing the expenses.
Barker was their banker, and they are
anxious he should receive some reward.
They were SO kindly received that Dewey
ventured to explain to General Harrison
that the men bers of the Irish-American
Protection organization felt that they
were
TOO YOUNG IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
to expect official recognition, but it would
afford them much qualification if the rep
resentative American, who had been es.
pecially friendly to them as well as to Gen.
eral Harrison himself, should be honored
by this new administration.
Gen. Harrison's reply is said to b, neither
encouraging nor discouraging. The visit
ors expressed their doubt to their friends
here il Barker would be disposed to &C.
cept anything below the Tre asury port
folio. 1t has been suggested. however, that
if he should not be called into the Cab net
there are strong reasons for the belief that
he would make a good minister to China.
