Chinese Women Go to picnic

Dressed in their native costumes,
with yellow striped trousers and gor-
geous blue blouses, the Chinese wives
of the Chinese merchants of New
York attended a picnic the other day
at Prohibition park, Station Island.
Their children went with chem, but
their husbands were barred. 1t was
the most remarkable picnic New York
ever turned out, for some of the pic
nickers had scarcely ever before been
out of doors, while quite a number
had been cooped up for more than 20
years in the tall twisted tanements
of Chinatown. There were girls of 1G
whose faces had never been seen in
the streets, and women of so years
old who had never been out of their
homes since they were married, years
ago. They represented Chinatown
best society, and there were Sc in
the party, which was in charge of sew
eral women of the Sunshine society,
and Rev. Houi Kin, Chinese Presby-
terian minister.

Shot Dead.
BY Associated Press.


Roanoke, Va, July S1.-Thc dead
bodies of John Tolley and Chas. Bor-
ry were found yesterday in the road
between Pocahontas, Va, and Coop
ers, w. Va. They were murdered
and robbed. The two men were cou-
sins and came from Tennessee. When
they started for Coopers yesterday
morning, it is alleged that they were
followed by Mary Graham and Bob
Nidiffer. When Tolley and Berry had
gotten short distance across the line
into West Virginia, they were fired
upon from behind and killed. Mary
Graham and Bob Nidiffer were
arrested and lodged in jail at Blufield.
The Coroner's inquest implicated Pete
Spangler, Geo. Nelson, Geo. Graham
and Jack Martin, all four of whom
were arrested and placed in jail The
motive for the killing was robbery.

The shirt-waist man is coming be-

comfort in torrid weather, says the
New York Press. A coat is crime in
such temperatures as we have been
punished with in the last week. All
the world will bless the Jersey Judge
who suspended the dignity of the court
on Monday and Tuesday and permit
ted lawyers, clients and hangers-on to
take off their coats in the presence of
100 degrees in the shade. And as an ex-
cuse for this leniency he limited that he
himself might be tempted to "shuck.'

STATE HOUSE.
License of Manhattan Fire In
surance Co. Suspended.
Action of State Commission Result Of
Investigation Of Condition
Made by New yor: Department Of insurance
About Month AGO.

After rather checkered career the
life of the Manhattan Fire Insurance
Co. in Maine seems to be practically at
an end. The license Of the company
and its agents in this State was sus-
pended by the State insurance commits
sion, Friday. The commission had no
authority to revoke the license and 1t
was therefore suspended.
The Manhattan had cash capital
of $500 900 and it made 4 sworn state
ment, Dec. 81, to the effect that its
surplus over all liabilities was SIS
0i355, making Q surplus to policy hold
ers of $53S ,O13.55. 1t seems that this
statement was false.
The New York state insurance de-
partment, about a month ago, complet-
cd the examination of the company 5
condition and from the investigation it
appears that the surplus was all gone
and the capital of the company was
impaired to the amount of S4S9, .O3.3l,
which is an impairment of about 90 per
cent. While in this condition the COM
pany paid a dividend of 10 per cent
The company wrote risks in Maine
amounting to S593..0S, last year, and
collected $l05S5.61 in premiums. Inc
loss in Maine in 1900, was $5G11.25.
During the year 1900, the directors
and those controlling the Manhattan
Company secured control of the Erie
Insurance Co. of Buffalo and the lat
ter company was supposed to be under
their control at the time the state
ment was issued but the contract was
said TO have been annulled and the Of
Gcers of the Erie, representing the
Manhattan interests have resigned
Thus the Erie is freed from the black
eye it might have received had 1t peer
allied with the Manhattan.
