HEAD BARES DEALS
Big Sums Paid Out with Only
Verbal Accounting to
Mccall.
LOBBYIST KEPT TO
WORK ON LEGISLATORS
Mccall Tells, Also, About Cam
paign Contributions to Re
publicans.

New York, Sept. 2O-Two hundred
and thirty-fve thousand dollars has
been paid by the New York Life In
surance company to Andrew A. Hamil-
ton of Albany.
No accounting for this money has
been made except to President Mccall
verbally.
Hamilton attends sessions of the leg
islature at Albany in the interest Of
the New York Life:
These facts were brought out today
by testimony given by Mr.. Mccall be-
fore the legislative insurance investi-
eating committee.
Mr.. Mccall says the various sums
making up the $235,000 paid to Hamil-
ton had been given him in connection
with different real estate deals, but Mr..
Hughes, after considerable questioning,
developed the fact that none of the
money, had been actually applied to
such deals. ..
Money for Lobbyist.
Mr.. Mccall also says that Mr.. Hamil-
ton was allowed money for expenses at
| Albany and that Mr.. Hamilton's ac-
counts were not subjected to audit Mr..
Mccall denied that he gave Mr. Ham
ilton money to influence any member
any such course. The $235,O00, Mr..
Mccall said, he was sure would be paid
| by Mr.. Hamilton on demand Of the New
York Life. :-s ...--.l
eff it is not" said Mr.. Mccall, "I
am responsible and I will pay it. !"
Hamilton received for legal seTlces,
he said, about 100000 year from
the New York Life.
49,. Campaign Contributions.
On the subject of the New York
Life's campaign contributions in re-
cent presidential years, Mr.. Mccall
j said they were given for the purpose
of defeating the silver platform and
for the support Of the gold standard
! rather than of the republican party.
AS to the contribution to the repub-
lican campaign fund in 1904, Mr.. Nc
Call said he did not care how many
action. He made the contribution hon
estly, believing it was justified and for
the interests of the policy holders.
Denies He Is Wealthy.
| Just before the committee adjourned
for the day Mr.. Mccall asked and was
granted permission to make a state
ment denying that he was a man of
great wealth. He said:
"Various publications have stated
that have amassed great wealth in a
few years, and / want to say under
oath that / am not a millionaire nor q
part millionaire. If I should die to-
morrow the greater part of my fortune
would be my life insurance.
EDO you pay. the premium on thata'
asked Mr.. Hughes.
4; ~ pay my company $4,000 year, -
replied Mr.. Mccall, "and another thing
of the seventy-three syndicates in
which the New York Life Insurance
company has been making $2,40O,O00
for the company,eI have never been in
one that sold bonds to the company.
"That will be gone into later said
Mr.. Hughes.
The committee then adjourned until
tomorrow.

PLAN A Line OF
RIVER FREIGHTERS
Established Company Proposes to
Handle Traffic on a Big Scale
from Minneapolis.

Following the announcement that the
upper Mississippi reservoirs will prob
ably be further improved and not
abandoned, and in view Of the near
completion Of the dams and locks be-
tween Minneapolis and St. Paul, comes
the announcement that eastern capital
is interesting itself in a plan to make
Minneapolis in fact the head Of river
navigation. It is proposed to make the
Mississippi the highway to the south
and an outlet for the vast products of
the northwest. A fleet Of modern light
draught steel river barges and power
boats is to be built and operated from
Minneapolis to the gulf. Minneapolis
capital is to be Interested if possible.
especially the milling and grain inter:
ests, which are the ones to be most
affected.
Negotiations have been conducted
quietly thru the headquarters Of the
eastern concern in Pittsburg, which is
figuring on the enterprise. A repre-
sentative of the company has been il
Minneapolis comforting with the Com
mercial club and with millers and large
shippers, who will be interested in Sc
curing cheap transportation to the
south and southwest via the river. The
total present tonnage, as well as The
probable tonnage, If a cheaper rate
could be secured, have been thoroly in
vestigated.

Would Reduce Export Rates.

It is stated absolutely that with i'm
proved safe steel boats, -four and grain
and other millstuffs, together with the
other products Of the northwest, can
be shipped entirely by water from Min
neapolis to the Atlantic coast and Eu-
railroad rates now in effect. At pres
ent, the boats on the river are mostly
old wooden hulls and not particularly
safe for freight. The risk and insur-
ance rates are very high. For fifty
years there has been practically no i'm
provement in river boats, and for years
the fleets have been allowed to de-
railroad competition. The old boats
get grounded and break or snag and en-.
tire cargoes are lost.
The proposed boats for the revived
river business are to be built similar to
the great lake freighters, but Of much
shallower draught. They will be of
steel and iron and strong enough to
Withstand hard weather and ground
ings. By building, with considerable
freeboard, loads can be increased in
the lower river where there is a great
being combined into two. At present
the upper river boats cannot go thru
to the gulf, and every cargo is re-
loaded once or twice in the lower river.
It is also proposed to make combina-
tion rates with roads not now reaching
any Of this territory. In this way low
thru rates may be made via river and
rail. Barges for non-perishable freight
where time is not an essential element
of the transportation will be used, and
can be handled by the power boats
Of the feet. At the gulf The company
has connections with steamer lines, en-
aiding the making Of thru rates to
points in all parts of the world.
River Being Improved.
The government is now expending
| large sums in the Improvement Of the
river, which will make the service safer.
| The Upper Mississippi River Improve
ment association, which meets next
month in La Crosse, is doing much tc
secure improvements in the upper river
By taking advantage Of these improve
ments and modern steel boats the com
pany promises q safe service. The com
! pletion Of the Panama canal is also
looked forward to as another source OF
/ traffic on the river. The return trip VI
large foreign exports that come into TIT
northwest. It will also draw on tht
coal and lumber industries Of the south
and give them an opening to the north
ern market.
The Minneapolis terminal has moi
i been decided on as yet, but is said to b.
i simple matter. Elevators and large
warehouses with trackage can easily
be secured. Cargoes can be loaded by
means of chutes and cranes, and un
4 loaded in the same manner. It il
I stated that prominent northwestern
shippers have promised to invest heav
4 lily in the project.

PEAS
NOT ON MENU, BUT HEART
OF DISCUSSION
Commercial Club Banquets and
Talks New Industries for
Greeley Canning
Factory Possible

The discussion at the CONNER
cial Club banquet last Monday even
ing, under the head of New In
dustries for Greeley" was very much
of canned peas. 1t was question
of whether or not a canning factory
would be a good thing for Greeley.
Duncan A. Holiday Of Denver, who
is pretty we'll posted on goods OF
this kind was present, and told some
thing of what Empson was doing at
Longmont., and how this industry
had been built upon large scale.
A. NJ. McClenahan, who has been
looking up the matter of canning
factory for Greeley introduced the
subject, and gave considerable val
liable information.
A committee of three, who were
going to Longmont upon other busi-
ness anyway was appointed TO see Mr.
Empson and learn if he would be
willing to put in another plant at
Greeley, providing the right induce
ments we're offered. This committee
is composed of William Mayher, II.
ID. Parker and Fred Dresser.
The discussion of peas, canned and
otherwise, took various turns, and
| finally ran into the soil. From ex-
perience it has been shown that le-
guminous plants, such as peas have
wonderful enriching qualities to the
earth, and here the discussion went
into scientific realms. For some
time the United States Agricultural
department has been experimenting
with certain bacilli, that has a
marvellous fertilizing effect upon the
soil. The bacilli especially works
upon the little nodules on the roots
of the pea vine, and in some way
draws considerable quantity of
nitrogen down through the leaves and
stalk of the plant, and into the
earth. 1t is this increased amount
of nitrogen in the soil that makes 1t
fertile. OF course, the pea vine Is
not the only plant that is affected
by this same bacilli. Alfalfa is
said to draw all its power of enrich
ment Of the soil by the same. minute
organism, and where this is totally
absent in the soil, even alfafa will
not help.
The Agricultural department is
sending out, free of charge, the cul-
ture of this bacilli, and it is so rap
idly self propagating that only a
very small quantity is necessary to
stock whole farm in short time.
The secretary of the Commercial
club was instructed to open correspon-
dence with the Agricultural depart
ment for further information upon
this subject. G. A. Granger, man.
ager of the Greeley sugar factory was
present and expressed his desire tc
learn more about this question and
too at once take steps have 1t tried
in beet culture.
Generally the meeting was one OF
the most successful since the organi.
zation of the club.
