agreement to close up the business of said
society. also find that Mr.. Tonkin did on
May l. 1891 effect the organization OF the
Federal ''Investment' company, upon the
books of which he has unlaWfully transferred
the remaining members of the Northwestern
Mutual Endowment Society, amounting in
number to something over 25) cerliti-
Gates. Assessments were Immediately
sent out accompanied with letter from
the secretary. Mr.. TOnkin, stating the terms
this new scheme. adding that If they did not
transfer they would lose all they had paid
into the old society, as it would have TO be
closed up. It was in this manner the men,
bers received their first notice that the buSi-
ness of the Northwestern Mutual Endow-
ment society was to be wound up. So II is
seen how very cleverly this notice to the
members was used to whip them into this
new and illegitimate scheme. There is little,
If any. doubt that all business that has been
transacted by this Federal Investment COM
pany is irregular and illegal. 1t claims to be
an investment company, when in fact II IS
practically nothing more nor less than
form Of endowment business, ana should be
incorporated under the cooperative or as
SeSSmeut insurance laws governing lie
casualty and endowment associations or So
cieties. and receive a certificate OF authority
from the insurance commissioner, as said
law requires.
also note that the bylaws governing the
pany contains provisions that are in direct
violation of its articles of incorporation, con-
sequenty. in that respect alone the business
would be illegal
The above section of the bylaws alone
surely gives the lie TO the investment feat
ure. and makes the business of the company
amenable 10 the cooperative assessment
laws. as above stated.
The plan of doing business by this COM
pany j as follows:
Certificates are issued for 500 each. upon
which q monthly due" Of 81 is collected
or this payment 20 per cent goes into the
maturity fund, Is per cent into the expense
fund and Is per cent into a reserve fund.
When there shall be 500 in the maturity
fund the person holding the lowest num-
he1ed certificate III force shall be paid the
$40.
II is thus seen how the ''small sums of
money paid in by the certificate holders is
invested" for them. 1t is especially no
ticeable what 4 profitable investment 1t
will he. providing they IGil TO make de.
posit' every monih-thev simply lose all
they have previously paid in.
Mr. Dearth concludes his report by
pointing out that it becomes the duty of
the commissioners to take proper steps
10 have the irregular business wound
up without any furth delay.

PHOEBE IS BEATEN.
Judge BIodgett Decides Against
Miss Couzins.

CHICAGO, July 9.-Judge Blodgett de-
cided the Phoebe CouZins case this
morning by rendering a sweeping de-
cision against the eX-secretary of the
board of lady managers of the worlds
fair. The court held, in short, that
Miss Couzins is out of office, and out for
good, and can't get back. The case
was decided OH the exceptions made by
Miss CouzinS to the answer of the de-
PENDANTS to her bill for INDUCTION to
prevent them from onsting her out of
office, The decision held that the
board of lady managers was created by
the national commission and received
its powers from that body. These pow
erS extended to the executive committee
OF the board of lady managers, and it
had full power to act, inasmuch as con-
gress had not provided for a continuous
session of the board of lady managers
which had TO delegate its powers to the
committee. This committee, the court
held, was in fact the board itself. The
court therefore denied the injunction.
Miss Couzins was not III the court room
to listen to her defeat.

DECIDED TO ARBITRATE.
Loss Incurred by the Turner So
ciety in the Park Fire.

A meeting of the finance committee
of the Turnverin Germania with the in
surance underwriters was held yester-
day morning at the residence of j. q.
Haas, to adjust the loss incurred by the
society by the recent burning of the
Park theater. After some discussion, it
was decided adjust the matter by arbi-
tration, and a committee of two was APP
pointed to represent the interested
parties. Frederick ROmer, who put up
the building, will represent the society,
and Herman Gandin will look after the
insurance companies interests.
Another meeting will be held at the
same place this morning. 1t has been
decided, after careful consideration Of
the subject. not to rebuild the theater.
1t would necessarily, being in the fire
limits, have to be constructed of brick
and stone, and 1t is not thought that the
income resulting from rebuilding would
Justify tile outlay. 1t is probable, how
ever, that brick block may be erected
By the society later on. President NJ.
+. Propping said last night that it had
been fully decided not to build at
present.

The gang of young burglars rounded
up by the police Wednesday evening

municipal court yesterday. Clarence
Winch, who was caught red handed by
Officer Cummings robbing the residence
of Peter Badly, All Ashland avenue,
waived examination and was held to the
grand jury in $1,000 bail. The other fell

Frank Waltenberger Charged
With Appropriating Insurance


Collections.
Frank Waltenberger is missing, and,
by coincidence more or less striking.
certain funds of the Metropolitan Insur-
ance company are found to have disap-
peared. Waltenberger was the agent
of the company, which is New York
concern with branch Office in the
chamber of commerce building. He
had charge of local collections and also
wrote new business. About week ago
Waltenberger suddenly disappeared. 1t
was found that he had stated his inten-
ton of going to Duluth, but instead of
doing so he took the train for Chicago
or the same evening. When it became
known that Waltenberger had left so
suddenly an investigation was begun by
Manager Heath, of the local Office. He
found that the agent had failed in nu
merOus instances to turn in money col
lected, and more rigorous inquiry was
prosecuted. 1t then became apparent
that Waltenberger's shortage was more
extensive than at first supposed. Up to
the present, owing to the difficulty of
finding out where money has been col
lected, no accurate estimate of the de
falcatiOn can be made. So far as now
discovered, however, it is less than
$780, 1t is thought though that
when a canvass of the district covered
by the agent has been made. still
further shortage will be found. Walten-
berger's bond was only 500, which
amount is guaranteed by James Herrod,
of the Union Pacific Tea com pany. Mr..
HerrOd is only in moderate circum
stances, and can Ill afford to lose the
money. He was notified by the com
pany yesterday that he would be held
to the extend of the bond. Walton
berger figured in the papers once be-
fore as the hero of Southern romance,
1t will be remembered from the peculiar
circumstances. By the death of a rela-
tive he fell heir to a block of land
in Washington county, Florida. This,
on investigation, proved to be the home
stead of a widow with several children,
who held 1t under an imperfect title.
This lady proposed marriage to the real
heir to the land. Waltenberger never
pushed his claim to the property. He
is well known in st. Paul, and has al
ways borne good reputation since COM
ing to the city. His friends claim that
he will return and square accounts.

In fact our friends, Colonel O'Ferrall
