IRON LEAGUE SPEAKS.
1t Dep1Ores Crimes Against Women
and Also Mob Law.

A well-attended meeting of the Iron
League was held at its clubrooms on In
diana avenue last night. Some time was
spent in discussing the recent crimes COM
mitted by negroes and the lynching in
Terre Haute. A committee of five was Sc
lected TO draft a suitable expression of the
sentiments of the club. The following was
reported and unanimously adopted:
"As ~law-abiding American citizens we
deprecate lawlessness in every form by
whoever committed and ask that the law
be strictly and impartially enforced against
all viOlators. We SympathiZe with out
ragged womanhood and d%enounce the per-
petrators of such crimes.
condemn in unmeasured terms the
unchristian, uncivilized action of the mob
in Terre Haute that cruelty and unlawfully
put TO death and afterwards burned the
negro for the crime Of murder. We believe
lie sentiment sufficiently great as to leave
no doubt of the adequate punishment of
this self-cOnfessed criminal.
believe that the thinking. law-abid-
ing citizens should unite in an endeavor TO
see that criminals are speedily and law
fully punished for crime and TO do all in
their power to discourage the resort to mob
violence.
w urge our representatives In the
Legislature to vote and work for the pass
age of the bill now before that body which
has for its purpose the stopping of lynch
ings.
w wish TO express our appreciation of
the efforts of tho late Governor Mount.
present Governor Durbin and ATTORNEY
punish those who are guilty of taking part
therein"

INSURANCE
Status of Legislation Affecting Life
Insurance the Present Session.

A gentleman familiar with insurance mat
tiers said yesterday that the present session
of the Indiana Legislature had been more
than usually considerable in the matter of
insurance enactments. Out of the nearly
eleven hundred bills of various kinds intro
duced to date there are only about thirty
directly affecting insurance, and less than
one-half of these are directed at the regular
life companies. Few of them have made
material progress, and the passage of any
thing that would prove injurious to policy
holders, as life insurance legislation usually
does. is hardly probable.
Mr.. Stookey has an eleventh-hour bill in
the House calling for a wholly new code.
taking life insurance from the state auditor
and placing il with the secretary OF state,
imposing a tax of ? per cent. on gross pre-
miums and ripping things up generally.
But so radical a measure can hardly be eX-
pected TO make much advancement at this
late time in the session, If indeed Ii is even
heard of again outside the committee.
Several measures looking toward the
further regulation of the assessment asso-
Citations are included among the pending
measures, and il was the opinion of the
gentleman quoted that the enactment or
some of them would prove an additional
safeguard to the public But he stated
that the plea of 'fraternaliSm' and cry OF
persecution was still effective in saving
them from the stringent official supervision
required by the regular life companies, and
that the public probably needed the further
proof of their instability-sure TO come
before rigorous enactments for their con-
troll could be expected.
As a whole the insurance situation in q
legislative way seems less threatening than
for several years, and the people of Indiana
are apparently 10 be permitted TO go ahead
inSuring their lives unveXed by enactmentS
that would increase the cost of their in
demnity or otherwise trouble them.

INDIANA B. AND L. LEAGUE
TENTH ANNUAL CONVENTION HELD
IN THIS CITY.
The Old officers Are Re-EIected-Re-
ports Submitted and Papers
Read and Discussed.

The Building and Loan Association
League of Indiana held its tenth annual
convention in Room u of the Statehouse
yesterday. There were delegates there
from all over the State. and it was the
most successful meeting the league has
ever held. All of the old officers were re-
elected. They are: President, 1. ii. c. Royse,
of Terre Haute; first vice president, 7. b.
Orr, of Anderson; second vice president,
). r. WEIGH, of this city; secretary. A. l..
Gutheil, Of ~Shelbyville; treasurer, A. A.
Young, of this city.
The session was to have opened at 10
o'clock, but as most of the delegates did
not arrive until noon there was little bust
ness transacted until that time. Shortly
after dinner President Royse submitted his
annual report. In it he said that through
the efforts of the league the associations
which are in business merely for specula-
ton are quietly retiring. as their oppor-
tunities for speculation are diminishing.
After the presidents report the report of
Secretary Gutheil was read. He showed
that three new associations had Joined the
league, bringing the total membership up
to sixty. The receipts during the year were
sS36.S4, and the expenditures S24O.25, leaving

before the national association, which held
its meeting in New Orleans. The title of the
paper is 1.-The Building Association; It's In
fuence on the Community" 1t was intend
ed that the bishop should read it himself,
but he was unable to be present. In the
paper he dealt with the fact that a build
ing and loan association does much good to
a community. He said that it enabled men
who earn their living by hard labor to put
by a small amount each week and in this
way gave them a standing in the COM
munity. Z. +. Miller read an address on
advertising in Building and Loan AssO-
Citations; the Best Methods, ETC." He took
the ground that all fraudulent institutions
advertise extensively. The next address
was delivered by Thomas b. Orr, OF An
derson, the subject of which was THE
Indiana Building and Loan Laws" He
commended the Legislature for its action in
killing House bill No. So. The other speeches
were delivered by j. Oberholtzer, of Elk

Before the league adjourned ii adopted
resolutions thanking the Senate committee
OF building and loan associations for the
prompt and efficient action 1t took in kill
ing House bill No. So, a measure fraught
with danger TO all associations. The ex-
ecutive committee was not named by Presi-
dent Royse. This he -vill do later, after he
has considered the ma. ter thoroughly. The

RAJAH ON THE RAMPAGE
THE BENGAL TIGER AGAIN ON BAD
BEHAVIOR AT THE ZOO.
Captain Bonavfta and Other Attaches
Have Narrow Escapes-A
Quagga Chased.

Rajah. the Zoo tiger that killed Albert
Nelson two weeks ago., broke from his
cage yesterday morning. attacked Captain
Bonavita and a quagga and was subdued
by the latter.
Trainer Boyker had taken the quagga
from Its cage into the p~assageway leading
TO the arena. Just then the tiger in the
cage adjacent was heard jumping against
the rear door of its cage, which gave way
after several attempts. Boyker had just
time to take refuge in the quagga's cage
before the tiger emerged into the passage
way and at once started for the quagga.
which. becoming terrified, ran into the
arena
w. F. Tanner was working inside the
arena and Captain Bonavita was on the
steps leading to the arena entrance. Tan
ner did not hear Boyker's cries and was
startled 10 see the approach of the tiger.
Rajah was pursuing the quagga. and until
he came upon the men had apparently no
other thought than TO kill his prey. When
he caught sight OF the men it was to them
that his attention was given. Bonavita
drew his revolver as Rajah sprang at him
and fired and then prodded him with a steel
club. The quagga. still terrified and run
ming about the arena, approached too close
to the tiger and was torn by its claws. A
moment later Rajah turned again upon the
quagga. which. jumping and kicking, struck
the tiger squarely on the side of the head
with both rear hoofs. The tiger sank to
the floor completely subdued. giving Bona
vita time TO escape through the gate. Tan
rer got outside about the time BOnavita
fired at the beast. The bullet from his re-
volver penetrated the left side close 10 the
heart and was OF such force that the ami
NAL momentarily was stopped In its attack.

prodded 20 his cage.
During the excitement there were n few
spectators In the building. All were terror
stricken and highly praised BOnavita for
his bravery. He was at first In a place Of
safety and entered the arena TO assist Tan
ner, who was taken by surprise and with
nut WEAPONS.

HERMAN BAMBERGER DEAD.
He Was One of the Best-Known He
breyys of the City.

Herman Bamberger, one of the most ac-
tive workers and prominent members of
the Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation,
and the last of the charter MEMBERS of
that organization, died at 1 o'clock this
morning at his home, 613 North Alabama
street. after an illness of several weeks.
Death was caused by congestion Of the
brain.
He was sixty-four years of age, and was
born in Hesse-Darmstadt, Germany. He
came to America when eighteen years Of
age, coming at once to indianapolis, which
has been his continuous residence since
that time. The year following his arrival
he interested himself in the establishment
or the Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation,
and was elected as it first secretary and
afterward acted in some official capacity.
1t was through his active interest in the
welfare of the Jewish people that the Mar
ket-street Temple was constructed about
thirty years ago, at which time he was
president of the congregation, and it was
largely through his efforts that the new
Delaware-street Temple was built. He
was much interested in public affairs and
was active in promoting and carrying on
the public charities of the city. He was
at one time q member of the School Board,
and introduced the first resolution looking
to the establishment OF the Manual Train
ing High school. In 1872 and 1873 he was
president of the /. D.. B.. B., the leading
Jewish fraternal society of the city. In
politics he was a Republican.
Mr.. Bamberger entered the hat and fur
business at 16 East Washington street in
1858 and continued in that location until
1894. During the last few years he was
connected with the New York Life Insur-
ance Company agency. He was married,
in 1861. to Miss Caroline Daniels, Of Gin
cinnati, who, with their five children.
Michael, Ralph, Edwin, Mrs. Sol. L. Kiser
and Mrs. David A. Kahn, survive him.
The funeral arrangements have not yet
been made.
