cured without consultation with the
president of the society save in a few
instances, or with the societys execu-
tive committee and with no considera-
ton as to the propriety of accepting
such positions and the compatibility of
their varied and extensive duties with
his work as an officer of the society or
with his freedom Of attitude as the re-
preventative of the societys interests.
II there is any real need for the society
to be represented upon the boards Of
companies whose securities the society
holds, that representation should not
be centered i'm one person, who cannot
by any possibility give proper attention
to the duties of so many positions.
AS a further Illustration of the state
ments contained in the foregoing spe-
ci1lcation, | mention the fact that he
has, i'm return for election to the boards
of various companies and as an induce
ment or reward for such recognition by
other companies displayed a partial
and ready willingness to extend to such
companies and to individuals interested
therein pecuniary and other favors
from the Equitable. On this subject 1
must defer complete specification until
reports now under way are finished and
submitted to me.
co l further stated:
He CNIr. HYDE has acquired a wide
celebrity and Unpleasant notoriety by
reason of his recreation and enjoy
ments of a more or less public nature,
which is exceedingly hurtful to the
company, disquieting to it's policy hold
ers and discouraging to it's agents. And
this notoriety cannot be said to be a
misfortune that has overtaken him, be-
cause he has cultivated it, striVen for
it, and even used the instrumentalities
that he commands in the society to
achieve it,"
l deem it unnecessary to make any
extended enumerations under this spG-
cifcation. l do not wish to seem to
attach an undue Importance to mat
ters which may be defended as merely
matters of private conduct. Many
things harmless in themselves and of
little Importance to one indifferently
situated become Of very great import
ance when the person under consider
alton occupies a conspicuous position
i'm the management and control of a
great life insurance institution. Pub
lie coaches, special trains, elaborate
banquets, costly and ostentatious en-
tertainments, accompanied as they are
by continuous nOtoriety of a fippant,
trivial cheap description are not only
damaging to the influence of Mr.. Hyde
as an officer Of the society but are di-
rectly hurtful to the society. They
suggest a lack of serious attitude and
feeling toward his duties as an officer
of the society, a DETECTION of his time
and energies into channels and pursuits
from which the society can gain no

advantage and from which, on the con-
trary it may suffer They suggest
| by their obvious eXpensiveness the pos.
sibilities of enrichment in the service
of the society, which should not exist
and are imposs BILE to explain and by
! virtue of the publicity attending his
| life, these pursuits are matters of no.
| toriety and prove a serious obstacle
| to the success of the work of the So
ciety's agents, upon which its growth
| and vigOr depend. 1 say in this spe.
cification that such notoriety as l here
describe cannot be said to be a mis-
fortune that has overtallen Mr.. Hyde
because he has cultivated it, striver
for it, and even used the Instrument
alities th,t he commands in the So
ciety to achieve it, Some of his per-
sonal clerks who are carried on the
societys pay rolls, are chiefly occupied
in the collection and dissemination of
news concerning him, and during a
period prior to the entertainment given
by Mr.. Hyde at Sherry's in this city,
on January 81, the larger part of the
energies of the advertising force Of the
Equitable was wholly occupied in So
called press work in connection with
this event.
CO. d further stated:
He (Mr. HYDE is absent from his
post at least half of every year, spend
ing his time chiefly in Paris, where he
has permanent residence. A great
portion of his time when in this coun-
try is devoted to recreations, social
and otherwise. The time he devotes
to business is largely occupied in per-
sonal affairs and in the attendance up
on interests other than those of the
Equitable Life Assurance Society"
Whatever confirmation the commit
tee desires can be readily procured by
its own investigation of the society's
records or inquiries it can make Of
Mr. Hyde himself.
ca l further stated:
His Influence by reason of the
Widespread impression of the finality
Of stock ownership as a basis Of au-
thority, not only enables him, but
tempts him to constantly utilize his
official position and his actual influence
IN way that is more regardful of his
personal interests than of propriety in
the abstract or the interests of the
society,""
Under this specification 1 should like
TO lay before tie committee the COM
plete record of the socalled syndicates
solely managed by Mr.. Hyde for a
period Of over two years. 1 deem it
proper to ascertain the history of every
such transaction, which can only be
procured from private records kept by
Mr.. Hyde and which, Notwithstanding
my repeated requests for them, have
thus far been withheld from me. Every
transaction should be examined min
utely the circumstances under which
he came into relations with the various
parties from whom the participations
were received should be examined. the
history of each participation, the ex-
tent of any personal reservations from
syndicate participations which were
handed over to the society, the profit
and loss upon each particular trans
action, both to the society and to in
diYiduals, and what, if any, directors
OF the society were in any way, direct
continued on page seVen.)
