RUSSELL'S LETTER.
Action by the Policy Holders the
Only Remedy.

Albany. y. Y, Oct. 3.-AttoTney Cen
eral Mayer tonight received the letter
of William Hepburn Russell asking
permission in behalf of pOlicy-holders
To sue the officers of the New York Life
Insurance company for the restitution
of moneys contributed 10 campaign
funds. Mr. Russell says:
We are convinced that the only way
IN which the very grave public qucs-
tion involved in this matter can ever
be satisfactorily disposed of is through
an action i'm the right of policy holders
brought i'm behalf of the New York Life
Insurance company TO compel its de-
linquent officers and directors To ac-
count for the misuse of the corporate
funds in their hands
we do not always believe that an
action by the attorney general can
reach this specific evil and We there
fore ask YOU 10 consent TO the institu-
ton by us, ia behalf OF our clients and
such other policy holders as may join
with them, of suits or actions.
The New York Life Insurance CON-
pauy. in its corporate capacity. may be
named as party defendant if We sub
stitute our action as an action i'm equi-
ty but in that event il viii he only a
nominal defendant, as the policy hold
ers will sue on its behalf and solely
1ui the pui puSt uL competing tut re-
turn To its treasury of funds which
have been wrongfully diverted there
from. I'm this connection we expect 10
show that relief through corporate ac-
Tion is impossible because the board OF
trustees are all taTTed with the same
stick 50 far as the misapplicatiOn of
the corporate funds is concerned and
action by the policy-holders collective
~ is practically impossible for attain
ment. The only relief therefore. is
through an application TO the courts "

dwelling houses owned by Mrs Mack

one was vacant and the other was oc-
cupied by the Reception saloon.
For fully four hours the citizens bat
tied with the flames before they were
able to check their progress. The
breeze was not strong enough to carry
the flames any distance, but the heat
was so intense that windows were
cracked across the street. Shortly after
daylight the fire was under control.
The bucket brigade and the men who
worked with a line Of hose attached to
force pumps checked the flames after
a hard battle and undoubtedly saved
the entire western portion of the city
from destruction.
Hughes & Co. were the heaviest los
ers. 1t is estimated that their stock
destroyed amounted TO S6,50O and on
the entire stock was carried $3.50 in
surance. Stranger & Co. lost about
81 800 worth of goods. Their insurance
amounted to 81 900. The Oakley hall
property was owned by Mrs Hyrum
Lewis of ogden. but the amount of
insurance carried on the building is
not known. The property is valued at
$1,000. The other buildings were one
story structures, but the valuation and
insurance on them could not be OBJ
tanned, Most of the stock and fixtures
were saved The loss will not reach
over $1,000 on the other buildings.
In fighting the flames several men
were slightly injured by falling tim
beTs. In one or two cases men were
slightly burned while carrying goods

"a ONTPELIER, Ida, Oct. 3.-The
IU western business center of the
city was visited about l o'clock
this morning by fire which destroyed
property valued at $25 900. The insur-
ance on the entire property, includ-
ing goods and fixtures, amounted TO
only $500.
The fire broke out in the lower story
Of Oakley hall, on Washington street,
occupied by Hansen's bowling alleys.
The origin is unknown. but there is no
suspicion that it was d case of arson.
When the fire was discovered the flames
were well under way and had reached
the second story of the Oakley build
ing 1t Illuminated the whole city
and the citizens responded TO the fire
alarms. An attempt was made to get
the furniture, fixtures and goods out
of the building.
Besides the bowling alley and the
dance hail. the building was occupied
by the Cement Building Block Manu-
featuring company; Stranger & Co.,
dealers in sporting goods, and Hughes
q Co, mems furnishings.
Crowds of men rushed into the
stores and carried out goods and fur
niture until the building commenced
10 fall. A slight breeze famed the
flames until the fire spread across the
street to Frili & JOnellys cOnfection-
cry store. Then the fight began in
earnest. Bucket brigades were formed
and the force pumps were utilized.
For some time Il looked as if the en-
tire business portion of the city would
be consumed. The chemical engine was
put in use. but it was OF no avail
The Oregon Short Line pumps at the
depot were put in action. but the sup
ply of water was too slight to cope
with the range of the fire.

n ALT LAKE DAY brought the city
to the state fair. 1t was a Salt
Lake crowd, take it as a whole.
Automobiles were in evidence; so were
early fall styles. But they weren't the
whole thing. Here and there through
the crowds that damned into the gates
and hung about exhibit buildings, Mid
way and race track were the indisput-
able evidences of other parts of Titan.
The country was there, but not in
strength.
1t really marked the beginning, for
everything was just in full swing.
Early in the morning a lot of exhibit
ors and workmen gathered in the build
ings and put on the finishing touches.
And so when the afternoon started, the
men and women who filed through the
gates were no longer greeted with the
uncut corners and uncovered boards
that had been the day before.
In the Midway the same was true,
and while all the sideshOWs were not
ready to gather in dimes from eager
sightseeTs. the street was well lined
with gaudily painted canvas sheets, and
the mysterious entrances, behind which
came strains of queer music, were
thick enough to make a man forget
for the time that he was in Utah ana

he was satisfied that there was no Grim

Leonard's bail was fixed at SIS GOO today
after an attempt had been made to place
the amount at $50 600
Ii was stated at the rearraignment that
the charge Of larceny would probably
not be pushed against Leonard but that
he would be prosecuted for forgery.

Crowds All the Afternoon.


Things were pretty well in shape,
and Salt Lake City went out to see.
The noon hour had not well passed be-
fore the outgoing cars began to get
their full quota. Passengers gathered
in crowds on First South and Main
streets before o'clock, and from then
on the crowds gained new recruits as
fast as former members were whirled
away. These cars were loaded to the
fOotbOards as a rule and went in a
steady string. AS a matter of fact,
the car service was good, and in spite
of the big crowds going early in the
afternoon and coming back when even
ing drew on, they handled people well
BY the time afternoon was half over
the tuTnstiles We're clucking as stead
lily and industriously as a couple Of

terVals of rest. On the outer side the
double line of eager ones melted away
al its fore end and as fast gained
strength behind. Even the pass gate
was kept working fast enough to keep
the men handling the pasteboards from
suffering ennui.

all save the first a person ever saw,
and those will always glow with the
light of a halloWed memory that Will
