New York, Dec. 30.-After pursu-
ing a line of inquiry into the methods
of life insurance companies in this
state which has covered a period of
nearly four months, the legislative in
surance committee will end its session
today.
The vast accumulation of testimony
which contains revelations that have
astounded the public will at once be
prepared in the form of & report to the
legislature.
Joel C. Vancis, aetdary of the Equit-
able Life Assurance society. was the
first witness today. He has been with
the society for thirty-eight years and
answering Mr.. Hughes said that he
was responsible for the actuarial
methods of the society. He was asked
if any of the management interfered
with him and replied:
Henry b Hyde attempted to make
me figure on dividends declared on
deferred dividend policies higher than
thought advisable. That was about
fifteen years ago. reported it to Vice
President James w. Alexander and

viii Seek to Avoid Trial on Plea of
Congressional Immunity.

Washington, Dec. O.-Representa-
tive Binger Hermann of Oregon. who
is under indictment in connection with
Oregon land frauds is expected to ar
rive in Washington late today or early
tomorrow and the interior department
officials are of the opinion that his trial
will be begun within thirty days. The
two government witnesses, Putter and
Mckinley, also under Indictment but
promised immunity if they turn gov
ernment's evidence, will be here for
the trial. It is stated that these wit
nesses have not disappeared so far as
the government is concerned, but it is
admitted that they have evaded the
authorities of Oregon, where they are
wanted for violations of state laws.
The interior department has been adj
vised that Representative Hermann
will seek to avoid trial on the ground
that he is a member of congress and
not amenable for trial during such
service, but the department has no
doubt of its ability to bring about a
speedy trial rErffG

Parkhurst-Davis Company Suing In
surance Company in Chicago.

The Parkhurst-Davis Mercantile
company which is suing the indemnify
Exchange for $4,000 on insurance
growing out of the big fire which &C
CURED two years ago, has not com
pleted its argument before Judge Gary
Of the superior court in Chicago, where
the case is being tried. It is expected
that the case will come to a conclusion
this week and Mayor Davis and w. F.
SchOch Will return to Chicago tomor-
row.
The case is a peculiar one. The In
demnity Exchange set up the peculiar
plea that because Of the exceptionally
low rate given to the Parkhurst-Davis
company the fun amount of the insur-
ance should not be collected, but
should be prorated on a basis OF com
parison between their rate and the
usual one charged by other fire lnsur-
ance companies. The stand taken is
novel one. Judge Gary before whom
the case is being tried is 81 years old
and has been for the past fifty years
on the bench. The case is being tried
in Chicago because the insurance com
pany has no right to do business in
the state of Kansas.

Country club reports always inter-
est us, but the account of the Chaldean
club. for which i am indebted to Mrs.
Reuben Jennings Shay of Sterling. is
of especial interest. because this or
upon so simple a plan that it is posi-
BILE to any circle of women / take the
liberty of quoting from the letter writ
ten by Mrs. Shay in response to my
questions about the club:
y am so enthusiastic over country
clubs that I almost take it as a per-
sOnal favor that you show an interest
in our country organizations. COun-
try women, I am inclined to think
in this day of poor help-haVe rather
a hard time of it, and are inclined to
get in a rut, without a little diversion.
The Chaldeans realize this, and some
go six or eight milesh rain or shine, the
year through, for this diversion.
Their meetings open with the
Lords Prayer, followed by quotations
in response to roll call. AS they have
many good singers, they generally sing
a hymn. Then each member takes an
article or tells of something that has
especially interested her, and they
close with refreshments.
Everything is so wholesome that in
visiting the club you feel that you have
received a benediction."
The president of this club is Mrs.
Joseph Peters, and Mrs. Zeno Dymons
is the secretary.
Another country club of Lyons county,
of which we are promised fuller report,
is the S S. club of which Mrs. William
Black is president and Mrs. Book the
secretary Their work is along the line
of domestic science.
Clubs wishing to federate before the
biennial in May, in order that they may
be represented at the Minneapolis meet
ing. should bear in mind the already
published fact that no organization will
be admitted to the General Federation
whose application is not filed at least
ninety days preceding the first day OF
the biennial This means that your ap-
plication must reach the membership
committee by March 2, 1906.
The privileges of the delegate from
the individual club are as great as those
of the state delegates. so if there is one
of your members who wishes to attend
the biennial, federate your club without
delay.
