MORTON WILL REPORT TODAY

NEW YORK, Sept. @.-A statement was
given out from the office OF President Paul

of the directors of the society. 10 be held
tomorrow. Mr.. Morton will report that tho
Equitable society has paid out from jan

annuities, endowments, purchased policies
and other benefits the sum OF over S54, OOO.
The statement says:
This is an average of more than S1is500
for every working day and has been done in
the regular course of business. The money
all went to the benefciaries of the society
and in many instances was the sole re-
lance of those receiving IL.
Mr. Morton will also report that the ex-
pert accountants have not yet completed
their work and that II will be fully two
weeks more before II is concluded, Enough
is already known to enable him to say that
the securities and real estate of the society
are all intact and that their values approxi-
mate those exhibited by the official re-
ports. Any changes in the value OF stocks
OF real estate will be toward conservatism.
The expert accountants are far enough
along with their work for Mr.. Morton to
assure the directors that any future dis
closure of miscarriage Of funds will prob
ably refer TO moneys which the society
might have received. but which never came
into its treasury, with which its books do
not deal. and which have never been shown
or claimed TO be assets. That there are
cases Of this kind he has substantial proof
but what the amounts are and where the
money went to he cannot say at the present
] time, although he believes that his char
| tered accounts will soon ascertain every

LEGAL TANGLE is WORSE
Attorney Now Asks for Receiver for
the western Life Indemnity
Company.

CHICAGO. Sept. "a new complication
was added today to the legal ENHANCEMENT
Of the Western Life Indemnity company.
Federal Judge c c. Kohlsaat granted per-
mission to Attorney Clark Varnum to file
an intervening petition for the appointment
OF a receiver Of the company. Attorney
Varnum told the court he represents claim
ants who have been unable to collect in the
aggregate $4,000 from the Western Life
company.
The case went to a hearing on a de-
murrer filed by the defendants. the de-
murrer attacking not only the jurisdiction
of the court, but the form Of complaint in
the bill
A charge that officers Of the Western
Life Indemnity company have violated the
oral restraining order decreed by Judge
Bethea at the first hearing was made to-
day before Judge Kohlsaat by Attorney
s. o. Levinson, appearing for some OF the
policy holders. The attorney declared that
money had been disbUrsed by the officers
since the proceeding before Judge Bethea.
The charges that the company was being
"milked dry were me Re at the hearing
before Judge Kohlsaat ny Attorney Levin
son of the complaining policy holders. THE
company is paying money on its big con-
tracts" said Mr.. Levinson "and is being
milked dry. It has issred a statement
giving its assets as Ss17 900 on May l. Now
the assets are $500 900"
Levinson said that he had been told by
Mr.. Long. formerly attorney for the COM
pany, that the concern had paid the claim
of bank said to be involved in the $3.50
deal between President Rosenfeld and Pro-
moter Gray.
"The company may transact ordinary
business, but the assets may not be used
for anything but to pay death claims,
ruled Judge Kohlsaat
Investigation OF the affairs OF the Western
Life Indemnity company by state exam
! iner today brought to light facts tending
| to show that claims of perhaps thousands
| of policy holders in assessment companies
| have been practically wiped out through
company manipulation. Examiner Luciu'
| Fouts discovered that no fewer than eigh

minated their existence by merging into th'
Western Life Indemnity company "Tha

holders of the original compa.ies have gon'

they are still paying their premiums anC

This condition is not practically tn,
fault of the Western or other absorbing
companies, for the absorption is done ac

Judge Kohlsaat continued the argumen
until next week. The court instructed tn
defending attorneys to let the affairs of tn
