New York Life Funds Used in SpecuIa.
tiOns for Private Gain.
[By Associated Press]

New York, Nov. 27.-One of the
most interesting features of the life
insurance investigation developed only
a few moments before the adjourn
ment of the Armstrong committee to-
day, when Theodore f. Banta, cashier
OF the New York Life Insurance com
pany, testified that at the beginning
of 1901, Edward D. Randolph, treasur-
er Of the company, opened the vaults
Of the company and removed from
New York City stock valued at 500
000 and put a check on the Central
National bank for 100000 in its place
Mr.. Banta said he helped to open
the vaults at the order of MIR. Ran
acted for the finance committee. The
stock was kept out for few days
and was then returned and the check
withdrawn The transaction was not
recorded on the books of the company,
so far as Banta knew. The effect of
the operation would be that anyone
having the stock would have 100000
worth of taxable property at the end
of the year. Banta did not know who
received the stock.
Randolph is expected to be one of
the witnesses tomorrow.
George w. Perkins, vice president
of the New York Life Insurance COM
pany and memoer of the firm of J. P.
Morgan & Co., bankers, today detail
ed to the committee the transaction
from which he derived $40.193 from
Kidder, Peabody & Co. Of Boston as
half of the profits of the sale of $780,
900 worth of bonds of the Mexican
Central Railway company. Milton M.
Mattison, bookkeeper of the New York
Life Insurance company, had previous
ly testified that $93O,O0O of the Life
insurance company's money was used
in the transaction and that Perkins
got the profit.

Cleveland, Nov. 27.-Mrs. Cassie L.
Chadwick has expressed desire to
go on the witness stand again in
connection with the bankruptcy pro-
ceedings against her and today wrote
letter to Referee Remington OF the
federal bankruptcy court requesting
him to set date reopening her case.
Mrs. Chadwick declares that if an
opportunity is given her to go on the
stand she will tell without reservation
all the facts concerning her financial
dealings. For various reasons, Mrs.
Chadwick, in an interview this evening,
said she had declined to give much
desired information at her previous
hearing in bankruptcy Now, howev-
er, she said, nothing would be con-
cealed and no one shielded. Con
tinuing, Mrs. Chadwick said:

Perkins said today that he went into
the transaction for the Nylic fund,
which is owned by agents of the New
York Life Insurance company, and
that he invested the profits for the
fund. The life insurance company, he
said, profited to the extent of per
cent interest on the loan of $930,000.
He stated that the company had no
right to the $40,193 profits.
Perkins said also that J. P. Morgan
& Co, had taken up notes of Andrew
Hamilton and E. E. Mccall, formerly
justice of the New York state supreme
court, amounting to $56,310 at the re
quest of President Mccall of the New
York Life Insurance company and the
amount, with interest was paid to An
drew Hamilton by the New York Life
Insurance company from the proceeds
of a sale of United States Steel stock.
John H. Mccall told the committee
today that he had told the Central
National bank and Mr. Mccall that
Hamilton was good for $4,000 and
they hay then taken Hamilton's notes
President Mccall said the New York
Life Insurance company owed Hamil-
ton $56,310 and took the steel stock ID
pay him. The result was that the trans
action did not appear on the company's
books. The reason was that he wish
ed to keep Hamilton's expenses down.
Much evidence was given by Per-
kins and Mccall about the New York
Security and Trust company's partici-
lpation in the United States Steel Com
pany's syndicate to the extent of $3,-
250,000, having the deposits of the
New York Life Insurance company for
that amount. The New York Life In
surance company got rs per cent of
the profits and Perkins contended that
it was profitable venture.
President Mccall said the life in
surance company should have partici-
rated directly instead of indirectly.
