Following the example of Germany

tons and, in the case Of life-insurance
companies, to deposit a further sum
equivalent to the annual reserve set
aside by each company, for the benefit
and protection Of policyholders, has
seemed onerous enough.
The German Emperor did not pro-
pose to have the fatheraIH drained OF
money to profit the companies deposit
ing and investing 1t in America and
enrichlng the New York money mar

manently upon those great financial
concerns and they left Germany.
The japanese government observed
many things while its hands were tied
by the old treaties and has been slow
to reach out for the foreign insurance
companies. 1t will let the alien con-
Germs remain, but they must become
virtually Japanese companies and all
the guaranty funds and investments
are required to be put in Japanese
bonds of specified issues.
Having had free hand all along
and large and increasing business,
the foreign insurance agents strained
every nerve since the government or
der was issued last June to have the
terms modified in some way. The off,
cials remaining obdurate, all the COM
panies are preparing to close up their
affairs here. Existing policies will be
continued and premiums on them COL

cease, expiration, ETC., but otherwise
the American life insurance companies
have no future business in Japan.

Patrick Driscoll owns four of the
best paying silver and gold mines il
the Chloride valley, of Mojave county
Arizona, and has an income of ovei
$4,000 year, yet he spends no more
than $50 a month for his personal
comfort. Many generous gifts, howev

icle.
Driscoll is supposed to be worth be-
tween s1,2O0,00O and $1,600,000. His
income from his mines is $4,000 a
month, and he draws about $4,000 a
year dividends on railroad stock in
which he invested in the early days.
He has no relatives as far as he
knows.
The old miner had experienced all
the prospector's poverty and hardship
until he was past middle age, when
he drifted down to the Calico mines.
in San Berdardino county, California,
in 1881. There he found mine which
he sold for $4,000. This gave him his
first capital to deal with in mining on
his own account. From Calico he went
to Arizona, and in two years located
base ore mine of silver, gold and
lead in combinations. The Diana and
Antrim mines became his. He invest.
ed his profits in the Harqua Hala
mines and doubled his wealth in few
years. From that time he has been
prospecting to degree undreamed OF
by him.
He has never changed his manner of
living. He is over 20 and in fine health
Every day he may be seen walking
about the little town of Kingman or
over to Williams, where he has lum-
Der interests. No one would believe
from his appearance that he had prop
erty.
Driscoll lives alone in a cabin, cooks
his own meals-of flapjacks, pork and
bacon and oatmeal-and sleeps in a
bunk Of redwood filled with straw and
covered with blankets. Once a year
he goes to Phoenix or Los Angeles for
a few days.

the federal officers have been pre-

November 22 is the date fixed for
the next hearing, and several wit

lets case disagreed, once a juror died
just as the evidence was closing, and
the last time Ballet was convicted,
the verdict being set aside by the cir

rors.
The case has cost the government
many thousand dollars, but prosecu-

is now down and will be unable to
command the political influence that
formerly responded to his nunificent
touch, and his aged father, Judge
Ballet. of Des Moines, is his only fast
friend. a speedy conviction is regard
ed probable.
