MANAGEMENT IN LIFE INSUR-
 AECE
An Ohiect I.assln.

An Object Lesson.
 Management-taat's tn magic wand which opens the door to success in life insurance. AIalagcnc 1t- yes, good ncna cement that's the key to pro gress-to the stability and perpetuity 1f life insurance company. The mere mater of a big business is not the chi-f desidsratum. It is, though, de Sira0le when combined with other 'es- sential elements. Good management in l Eff insurance company cannot eX- iss without a strong and capable eX- ecutive. Life insurance is business that requires close and constant watch ing. Not Cnly must there be a c0ntin- UCus stream Of desirable business pour ing into the company. but th5re must be financiel ing of a high order Ths income and the Outgo must be nur5ed with a watchfui eye. How ilo invest money 50 that there will be absolute safety. as touching th5 principal, and positive assurance of 2. sufficient in te-est rate, is a problem not 90 easy of solution as some people think. There Is always an overwhelming demand for money, but in supplying tns demand, or any part of it, the chief end must be to select investments that will prove sound ard profitable. So much we premise before referring to some feats of financiering by the Ngw York Life Insurance company.
 The wacle course of President Me Calls administration of .his company has been charact5 rized by success the most brilliant in the annals Of life in surance. The financial policy of the New York Life is one of the nrost rigid conservatism, and yet it has proved to be the source of splendid profit to pol icy hold,r5. The company dIbbles nos in stocks at all. l. confines its invest men;s to read estate loans, government securities and bonds of undoubted va lidity.
 Le. us partlcularize a little ba.. As showing the far-zighteiness of Presi- ,nt Mccall in financial matters we will give a few examples. In 1896, when CUr government desired loan, Mir M Cal hied himself to Washington and put in bid for $1O.OO0,OG0 worth of bOnGs at a figure which secured the entire amount fer the N York Life. These bonds resulted in profit to the company of fully 15 per cent-say $1,500.C00. That IS a very snug sum in- deed to cull from aR investment that involved absolutely no risk at all of the principal.
 Right recently the English govern ment had occasion to borrow money. and the fact coming to the knowledge of President Mccall, he took up $2,5OO,- 009 of the loan. and since this invest ment there has been an advance in the price of the bonds of more than three per cent G per cenD above the cost to the N York Life.
 Still more recently, in fact, about one month ago. the New York Life in vested in a l1an to the German gov ernment. ;he bonds bearing 1 per cent interest. and were secured at par. These securities immediately went up in price and We imagine they could not be bought now for less than ten per cent advance over the pric, paid by the New York Life.
 Thus it will be seen thI, the presi- dent of the New York Life is not only

A large consignment OF Tobin bronze
from the Ansonia Brass and Copper Com
pany of Ansonia, Conn. has arrived at
Bristol and will be riveted to the hull OF
the new cup defender when the boat
reaches that not very distant stage.
The lot was marked as sheet brass.
which is the trade name. but the techni-
cal appellationN As Tobin bronze, and the
sole manufacturers are the Ansonia Brass
and Copper Company. Nearly % crates
have been shipped to the Hereshoffs and
this will go far toward completely cover

The plates are about II feet I'm length.
and averaging about "A inches I'm width.
There are two lots In the consignment,
one lot weighing 1860 pounds, while the
other weighs but $3.50. making an aggre-
gate weight of 1900 pounds.
The order was filed with remarkable
dispatch. an IT is only short time since
the syndicate owning the boat gave the
order To build TO the Bristol designers.
In a few days the plates will be trimmed
and cut and bored for rivet holes.
The hull of both the Vigilant and Col
umbia was constructed of Tobin bronze
and from experience 1t Is known that II
IN conducive to speed The surface OF the
bronze Is OF an oily nature Offering very
little resistance as the boat passes
through the water. The metal is also
remarkable for it's strength and IL is
claimed TO be stronger than mild steel
rods or plates.
IL Is very probable that the lead keel
of the new boat will be uncovered tomor-
row and then the work of attaching the
keel plates and setting up the plates will
be rushed through.

Yesterday morning the men OF the party

gestions and directions.
Quarters on Charles street and along
Gladstone avenue were picked out. and
then began the business of removing the
packages from the room over the baggage

There was a crowd OF sightseers on
hand to follow with curiosity every

wagons put in an appearance. and in

their possessions, and rode away TO their

MODEL TO Be TESTED.

The coming defender OF the Americas
cup will.s according to report circulated
at Washington. be tested I'm the model
tank at t4Se Washington Navy Yard. II
tho consent OF the naval authorities can
be obtained. The tank at the navy yard
is the largest of its kind in tho world
and is used in testing the models Of war
ships made for the government.
There Is q model tank of large size at
the Dennys yards at Dumbarton.. Eng
land. and IL has been reported by cable
that Sir Thomas Upton will test the
Shamrock ii. at that place. The Dennys
model tank, however, is not as large or
well equipped as the tank at the WASH
ington Navy Yard.
The tank Is spanned by travelling
bridge that moves from one end OF the
basin TO the other on tracks laid along
the sides. The bridge Is moved by an
electric motor and can be speeded to %
miles an hour. The model Is attached to
the bridge on which is located a delicate
measuring device. The bridge is started.

uring device accurately records the resis-
tance offered by the water to the model
as Il passes along the tank. Some new
factors will be considered when model
for a racing yacht Is tested, but IL Is
believed that the tank at the Washing
ton Navy Yard can be adapted to the pur-
pose.

DEATH DUE TO PNEUMONIA.

With the Elkes-Michaei match on Sat
urday night, the cycle racing season In
Madison Square Garden came to an end.
Caesar Simar, who contracted q severe
cold during the six-day race, is still con-
fined to bed. though no fears are felt by
his friends as to his condition. Floyd Nc
Farland Is now able to be out. though he
has not fully recovered his voice.
Much regret was express yesterday
among racing men as to the untimely
death of Oscar AaronsoD. The body of
Aaronson was removed from the New
York Hospital yesterday to an under
takers establishment in Brooklyn on the
order of some Of his Swedish friends. At
the hospital IL was learned that Aaron
sons death was due TO pneumonia. an
autopsy having shown that to be the
cause. Lis weakened constitution was
unable TO withstand the disease.
John West. his trainer. says: Aaron
sons death should be warning to all
racing men against entertaining. When
j went to Ambrose Park to take charge
OF the foreign cyclists, two weeks before
the start OF the six-day race, / found
Aaronson training on the same track.
Even then he was down too fine and
seemed to lack vitality. warned him
against overtraining. and, taking my ad-
vice, he eased up In his work. But even
at that he was too finely drawn when he
started I'm the weeks ride. After the ac-
cident I'm the third day OF the race,
found him al an extremely weakened
condition. His vitality seemed complete
ly used UP and he became an easy prey
to disease. Had his training been less Sc
we're 1t is probable he would not have
succumbed."
Owing to his absence from the city,
Major Taylor has not yet signed the con-
tract for his appearance In competition
I'm France next summer Further efforts
have been made to persuade him to alter
his decision in regard to racing on the
Sabbath. but he remains firm. In addition
10 Taylor, 1t is possible that Frank kram-
er, who won the 25-mile race at the gdr-
den on the third night, will be signed by
the Partisan syndicate of race promoters.

covered.
The cheers rang through the post of

learn what was the matter.

less than month ago. He Is 5 years
