tina Were the Chief Cause
of Selling Pressure
CORN WEAK ON PROFIT TAKING
The Weakness in Wheat Was Due to
General Selling by the Commission
Houses-oats Market Trifie Easier
in Sympathy With Other Grains =
Moderate Weakness In Provisions.

Chicago, Dec. 22.-General selling by
commission houses caused weakness in
wheat today. Shipments from Argen-
tiana for the week were in excess of the
amount previously estimated, and this
was the chief cause of selling pressure.
May opened at SIX to SITS, and de-
clined to S7A. Minneapolis, Duluth
and Chicago receipts were 79S cars
The market was further depressed by
reports of large primary receipts, May
closing off u at S7@s71s.

Corn was weakened by profit taking.
May opened at 44A @44ss and sold to

The market continued steady, at
slight decline. May closed 1904 low
er at AIS @44A.
Oats.
Oats were trif1e easier in sympathy
with other grains. May opened at 81 Is

were 225 cars.
Provisions.
Selling by packers and pit traders
caused moderate weakness in provis-
ions.

Insurance Department of New
York Makes Bad Showing
Before Committee
GROSS NEGLIGENCE SHOWN
No Attempt Was Made to Inquire Into
Affairs of the Companies Further
Than to Ascertain If They Were Sol
vent = Policy Holders Given. No
Protection.
Protection.

New York, Dec. 22-F'ranci5 Hen
bricks, superintendent of insurance in
New York, practically admitted before
the Armstrong legislative investigating
committee that his department had
been utterly negligent in protecting the
policy holders interests.
The state officials had been concern
ed altogether with the question of
whether the companies were solvent
or not and had not made it point to
ascertain whether the policy holders
were getting the returns to which they
were entitled.
Mr.. Hendricks had always supposed
that the big life insurance companies
were managed successfully from an
economic standpoint. He realized it
was his duty to find out whether or not
they We're so, but he had only followed
the practice which had prevailed in the
department for many years.
No investigation is made into the
salaries paid to officers so long as the
company is able to pay its obligations.
No investigation is made into the COM
missions paid to agents, the system OF
loading on the premiums, the advance
ing of loans to agents, or loans to di-
rectors. The employment Of kinspeo-
pie Of officers in high positions is not
inquired into.
Superintendent Henricks' knowledge
of the details of the department was
surprisingly meager. He knew scarce
ly anything about the actual conditions
in the companies thru personal investi-
CATION Some of the companies annual
reports never had been submitted to
him.
He argued emphatically AGAINST any
attempt to control by law The actual
management Of the life insurance COM
panies. He did favor publicity. He
was opposed to any attempt to limit
the amount OF an insurance presidents
salary. He could conceive how some
men would be worth as much as S4Oo,-.
900 a year to an insurance company.
Chief Examiner Isaac Vanderpool OF
the insurance department also was ex-
amined yesterday. He admitted that
his work and that of his assistants
consisted merely in verifying thru the
entries on the insurance companies
books the statements which had been
made to the department

NEW PHASE IN LAND CASES.
Return Of Fees Paid on Counterfeit
Certificates Demanded.

Salem. Ore. Dec. pa new phase
in the school land swindles presented
itself yesterday in the application Tor
return of partial payments ON counter
felt certificates made in good faith 10
the state school land board by the Fen
wood Lumber Company Of Wausau,
which holds fifteen bogus certificates
for an agreement Of 4,21s acres.
The Fenwood company loaned money
on the certificates to one ID. r. Muir
phy." which is believed to be an alias
of one Of the persons convicted sew
eral months ago in the federal courts
Of defrauding the government of pub
lie land and who is now fugitive
from justice.
PAYMENTS were made in Murphy's
name on these certificates as fast as
they became due by the FenWood
company and they now ask that these
payments be refunded. The land board
has deferred action in the matter I'M
till It is determined whether they have
the legal authority to refund pay
ments.
Jewett Requisition is Granted.
st. Paul, Dec 22.-The requisition
Of Governor George E. Chamberlain of
Oregon for the return of F. w. Jewett.
wanted in Oregon on charge of par
ticipation in the state school land
frauds, was granted. The writ was is
sued Wednesday, but was not made
public until yesterday, as Jewett had
not been arrested.
There is a law in Oregon that pur-
chasers of state school lands must
make affidavit that they do not intend
the lands for speculation. 1t is charged
that Jewett purchased 10000 acres of
this land and the same day, it is al
legged, made contracts with other peo-
pie for a large part of it at advanced
prices. He is wanted in Marion coun-
ty and Sheriff w. j. Culver came with
the papers to get him. File was sup
posed to be working at E[ibbing as a
clerk for a mining company and Culver
went up Wednesday night and arrested
him

Friends of Morningside College.


Sioux City, Dec. 22.-Nineteen benev-
olent friends of Morning Side College,
residing in the Northwest Iowa Meth
odist conference, outside of Sioux City,

the conference.
The foregoing statements regarding
the progress toward the raising of
the $15O,00O necessary to secure the
gift of $4,000 offered by Andrew
Carnegie, in which all the friends of
the college are deeply interested, were
made by Rev. DR.. Wilson S. Lewis,
president of the suburban institution.

the trustees, that field secretary

all his time to travelling about the
conferences in the interests of financial
aid to the college. Several good men
are in view, and the selection was left
to the executive committee.
