JEROME APPEALS TO GOVERNOR.
A serious clash between District Attorney
Jerome and Superintendent Hendricks Of the
State Insurance Department is likely to be thu
result OF the refusal Of Robert H Hunter Mr..
Hendricks's deputy In this city. to hand over
copy Of the testimony taken in the Equitable tn
vestigation. Mr.. Hunter persisted yesterday In
keeping the copy out Of Mr.. Jeromes hands un-
less Mr.. Jerome signed an agreement to give It
back on demand and Mr.. Jerome sent appeal
to Governor Higgins to make good his recent
oner Of the testimony. If the Governor does
not bring Mr.. Hendricks to terms, 1t Is to BE-
expected that Mr.. Jerome viii start OF the
John Doe" proceedings which have marked hs
term Of office. and will have subpoena ducss
tecun served on Mr.. Hendricks in order to COM
pei that official to produce Official copy Of thu
testimony.
Assistant District Attorney Garvan went again
TO Mr.. Hunters Office, at No. II Broadway In
the morning, expecting to receive the Official
CODY. His interview with Mr. Hunter was noe
exactly peaceful, Judging from the loud talkinE-
that went on for about half an hour Mr.. Gar
van appeared to be angry when he emerged frOE1
the office without the copy but he said:
1T can make no statement. Any information
will have to come from the District Attorney"
Did you get copy of the testimony"
IT did not"
Mr. Jerome would not talk about the case foR
sons hours after he received Mr.. Caravans re-
port. He called up the State Capitol at Albany
on the telephone and tried to get talk with
Governor Higgins over the wire, but succeeded
only In talking with Mr.. Perley the Cow
ernor's secretary. who suggested his sending
full report OF the controversy to the Governor.
Mr. Jerome acted on that advice IN the after
noon. sending to the Governor by mail a full ao-
count. including copies OF all the letters in tbs
case.
Mr.. Jerome received information yesterday
that the ofaciaI copy OF the testimony taken In
superfntendent Hendrickss investigation was
received bv Mr. Hunter at the Broadway once
as long ago as July and that Mr.. Hunter kaps
II a week before sending word to the Disrrlcs
Attorneys office that it ready for inspection.
The word might not have been sent on Thurs
dav. hut on wednesday Mr. Jerome telephoned
IN Mr. Hunters Office, asking for the copy. he
was told that Mr.. Hunter was in Albany. and hs
tried vainly to get Mr.. Hunter on the telephone
at the Albany oface Then Mr.. Jerome tried 70
reach Mr.. Hendricks at his home In Syracuse.
but with no better success Naturally Mr.. Ie-
rome was vexed the following day BY the dis
match to The Associated Press quoting Mr. Hen
bricks as saying that Mr.. Jerome had not ap-
piled for a copy OF the testimony.
DISTRICT ATTORNEYS STATEMENT.
All that Mr.. Jerome would say on the subject
last evening was contained IN the following
