SENATE.

bENAlEs
General William Booth, founder and
commander-in-chief of the Salvation
Army. did not deliver the opening prayer
in the Senate today, as had been expect
ed. Other engagements prevented his
appearance. The public and private
galleries were well filled, and there was
an unusual attendance of members, all
attracted by the hope Of seeing the dis
tinguished visitor.
A message from the President was read.
1t vetoed bill giving relief to Katie A.
Nolan, of Texas, on the ground that it
was duplicate of former legislation.
A number of bills were passed.
At the conclusion of the routine bust
ness the Senate went into executive ses-
sion TO consider the Panama canal treaty.
HOUSE.
In the House today, the chaplain in
his opening prayer, referring to the
birthday of Abraham Lincoln, paid a
beautiful tribute to his character and
life. "Help us to copy his virtues he
prayed, $50 that we may leave our tasks
well done"
The conference report on the general
staff bill, to promote the efficiency of the
army, was adopted without opposition.
The House committee on merchant
marine and fisheries today ordered a
favorable report on the bill to extend to
vessels propelled by gas, naptha and
motor, certain regulations which apply
to steam vessels.
In committee of the whole, the House
then gave consideration to the sundry
civil appropriation bill.

| SWINDLING INSURANCE COMPANIES.
From one of the members of gang OF
swindlers who have been defrauding life
insurance companies by the useof "dum-
my" bodies, confession was obtained
in New York yesterday by Assistant
District Attorney Krotel. 1t shows that
the frauds reached stupennous aggre-
gate and that the losses of the companies
through the operations of the gang were
many times greater than the oficia' S
supposed. The name of the man
who confessed was not made public.
The informer made the statement that
the gang had been practicing its fraud
for 10 years to his knowledge, and in
that time policies aggregating fully
81, 900, 900 had been collected. He de-
clared that one member of the gang is
worth at least 5000, 900, all of which he
made out of the insurance swindle.
In one instance company paid out
$40, 900 on one fraudulent risk. The
usual plan of operation was to make an
application for insurance in the name OF
some person in practically dying con-
dition, a healthy substitute being pre-
sented for medical examination. In
cases where the original ''risk' fingered
too long to satisfy the conspirators a
substitute body was used on which to
collect the amount of the policy. In some
instances false death certificates were
presented. So well organized was the
scheme that there was regularly APP
pointed board of directors that used to
meet every week to discuss the payments
of premiums falling due, and pass upon
the matter of the substitution of bogus
bodies in the case of "risks" that did
not die until the payment of premiums
became too heavy.
