The Post Office and Interior teams played
close and exciting game yesterday after
noon on the White Lot elipse, which re-
suited in victory for the former. the
score being to L.
Both teams played fast, snappy game,
there being lots of excitement resulting
from three fast double plays. There was a
good deal Of wrangling over a decision by
Umpire Sanders, when he called Penning-
ton out on what looked to the spectators
to be a safe play.
Post Office started off like a whirlwind
when they scored four runs In the first inn
ing, but after this they did not score until
the last inning. when they got their win
ming run. Interior secured Its first run in
the third inning. Two more runners got
home in the seventh and one in the eighth,
which ended their scoring.
Johnny Haring was in the box for the
mailmen, and held the Interiors down to
Ave hits. Waller for the losers was touch
ed up for nine hits, one of which was
good three-bagger by Clark.
Berkman at third for the winners played
well. Fenton at the same position for

Mr.. Hendricks said hal in making
the examination of the Equitable last
spring he did not have his attention
called to the existence of a memoran-
dunn in lieu of cash kept by the cash
Ter, and he was asked:
What examination was made under
your instructions TO verify the cash re-
turns of the cashier to the cash on

Isaac Vanderpoel, chief examiner Of
the insurance department followed Mr..
Hendricks and detailed what was done
at an examination. He said that pTac-
tically it was a comparison of the
company's sworn report with the
books. He had never known of wash
sales, nor of the ear n loans; he
had never known the salary Of Presi-
dent McCurdy, of the Mutual, nor had
he ever inquired what it was. The
salaries are in one lump sum in the
salary account and he had never TAX
en- steps to find out if these moneys
had been paid for that purpose. The
large expenditures in the supply de-
partment had never excited his curl
osity, although the vouchers had been
looked at at random. These were
stamped with the approval of the ex-
penditure committee and he had never
questioned their legitimacy of purpose
The vouchers for the $25,00O payments
to the chairman of the expenditure
committee, he had seen but never IN
CURED into. Mr.. Vanderpoel said all
examinations were conducted in this
manner, that he never tried to go back
of a voucher Or book entry. This was
a custom which had prevailed ever
since he had been in the department.
Mr.. Vanderpoel was on the stand
when adjournment was taken until
tomorrow morning.
