arrived Unexpectedly in San FraRcisco, and

Accompanying the doctor was DIR. Brig

That DR.. Webb was anxious to conceal

TAX ON INSURANCE BUSINESS
Companies VIII Protest Against Hill
10 Tax Their Gross
Receipts.

Agents II Nebraska insurance companies
are preparing a statement to the legislature
as to the effect Of the proposed tx upon
the gross earnings of the companies. 1t
will be claimed that the tax will have the
effect of increasing the cost OF insurance,
as the agents claim that the companies
will be required to pay tax upon money
which they DO not possess. as much OF It
will be paid out in commissions, and in
many cases the losses will more than equal
the premiums received
1t is said by some OF the agents that
certain companies are taking steps to ad-
vance the rates in Nebraska anyway, and
that this bill will have tendency to bring
the Western Insurance union rates up to a
higher point. They claim that some Of
the largest houses in Omaha and South
Omaha, including packing houses and de-
partment stores, will Join the insurance
companies in asking the legislature to let
the revenue law upon insurance companies
remain as II Is. II is estimated that un-
der the proposed law the increase in the
tax upon insurance companies in Omaha
alone would be about $1,000. while 1t
would be proportienately less in the state.

PAY TO CONFER BENEFITS
Doctors, Patients nnd Business Men
Are Dured by Strange Med
icsI Alliance.

INDIANAPOLIS, March Isl. c. Wilson
and II. G. Barrows, who came here last
summer. claiming to be agents OF the Med
ical Alliance OF America" have not been
seen for six weeks. sne some seventy ive
physicians and 100 others believe they have
been duped.
Wilson Incorporated the concern, and
then explained the scheme to many physi-
clans. The doctors were to pay an intia-
tion fee OF $40 and 81 year dues and fur
nish a list OF their patrons to the "alli-
ance." The agents then went among the
patrons, and induced many OF them to be-
come members" of the alliance by paying
an initiation fee of 81 and weekly pay
n.ents Of IS cents In return the patrons
were to receive free medical attention.
The merchants were next visited and in
duced to become members on the payment
OF 81, upon their agreement to allow the
patrons of the alliance a discount OF per
cent on articles furnished. The medical
alliance also issued policies for the pay
ment of death benefits. About $1,000 was
secured here by the two men.
The home office of the Medical Alli-
ance of America" in Montreal has prom
ised to make an investigation.

ARMY OFFICERS GUESSING
order to Detchemendy to ReRppear
Before Examining Board May
Mean a Mild Sensation.

Captain Detchemendy, late Of the Twen-
ty-second infantry, who upon his own ap-
plication was retired shortly after the regi-
ment returned, for physical disability ac-
quired in the service in the Philippines,
has been ordered before Major General,
Young, president OF the retiring board for
examination as to his physical condition.
Behind this order, which was published
last week, there may be something SEN
sational, in the opinion Of army officers.
Nothing Is known by those who will talk
Of the matter as to the circumstances sur
rounding the retirement which would lead
the government to believe that the condi-
tion OF the officer was not as represented
by him at the time his resignation for
the stated reason was accepted, but the
fact that he has been ordered for further
examination causes his acquaintances to
wonder what the next step will be in his
case. The procedure is said to be very
unusual, as once on the retired list, off,
GERS are very seldom required to show
that they have a right to be there.
1t is reported In army circles that Colonel
Forrest H. Hathaway, another officer well
known in Omaha, is TO go on the retired
list as brigadier general with the appoint
mcnt OF Colonel Humphreys as brigadier
general and quartermaster general OF the
army. Colonel Hathaway was chief quar-
termaster OF the Department Of the Mis-
Houri during two years aftSr the close Of
the Spanish war. When ordered from
Omaha to the Philippines he was in such
poor physical condition that a board was
appointed to determine his fitness for SER
vice in a tropical country. The board sat
at San Francisco and the departure Of
the colonel was delayed two weeks while
they passed upon his case. 1t was decided
that he would be able to serve, but he had
been on the islands but short time when
he was sent to the general hospital which
he quit only to return to the United States
He then went on leave, which he spent
in Omaha and at the conclusion of such
period he went to the Department Of Co.
lumbia as chief quartermaster. He served
in the civil war and his health has been
seriously affected by his service in Cuba
and the Philippines.
Colonel E. J. McClernand, a member OF
the general committee of the Society of
the Army OF Santiago de Cuba, is making
preparations for the celebration OF the ifth
anniversary OF the surrender OF the city
of Santiago, which will be observed July 10.
Captain G. B, Humphrey. who was ap-
pointed as captain from first lieutenant OF
the Seventeenth, infantry, has been assigned
to the Twenty-second infantry and viii
command Company H, stationed at rort
Crook
Captain Burkley Enochs, formerly sta
toned at Fort Niobrara as first lieuten>
ant OF the Twenty fifth infantry, has been
assigned to the Ninteenth infantry and will
join that regiment upon the expiration Of
his present leave.
