Associate Counsel of Insurance Com
mite Examines Him.
New York, Oct 4.-John A. Mccall,
surance Company, was again called
to testify before the legislative COM
mittee today. For the first time since
the investigation began, Jas. McKeen,
associated with Mr.. Hughes as coun.
sci for the committee, conducted the
examination. McKeen, who has been
studying the technical end of the in
surance business, opened by outlin-
ing to Mccall the power and scope
of the committee, and said its re-
port to the legislature will in no way
be limited by the testimony taken
at these sessions.
Mccall in answer to questions by
McKeen, described in detail the sys-
tenn used in making reports to the
state insurance departments, and al
so explained the table followed by
the New York Life Insurance Co.
Mccall said the increased compen-
sation to agents was a temptation for

do so and forfeited the benefits OF
that system if they violated the agree

effective, 1 think, that every bill in

Mccall denied the report that The
New York Life Company discrimina-

Spanish Var, giving more liberal

Togo's fleet now stands at nineteen. It
is possible that three additional war
ships were sunk in the fight Saturday,

exact number of his fleet is not clear.
but he had his main fighting vessels
with a number of light cruisers and

The disposition of the Japanese feet
appears to have been an ideal one. Ad-

vantage. The inner line was held by
Admiral Togo with the battleships and

RUSSIA'S SOLE HOPE
NOW RESTS UPON ITS
OFT DEFEATED ARMY

Later advices confirm the magnitude
of the disaster suffered by the Russian
fleet and point to the fact that Rus
sia's hopes, so far as this war Is con-
cerned, now lie in whatever may be
accomplished by the oft-beaten army
in Manchuria. An official report re-
ceived from Toxic by the Japanese le-
CATION at Washington Monday even
ing says that the Russian losses def
nitely known include two battleships
a coast defense ship, five cruisers, two
special service ships and three de-
stroyers sunk, and two battleships,
two coast defense ships, one destroyer
and one special service ship captured,
while over 5000 prisoners have been
taken, including Rear Admiral Neboga-
toff. The Japanese, it would seem, are
still pursuing the Russians and it may
be some time before the final result Is
known.
There is nothing to clearly indicate
the extent of the Japanese losses.
The news of the disaster has caused
depression in official Russia, though it
is not yet known generally among the
Russian people.
Rojestvensy's defeat has given rise to
renewed talk of peace.
1t is pointed out by the Associated
Press st. Petersburg correspondent that
Russia in this crisis will turn to France
through it's foreign minister, M. Del
oasse, while from Washington comes in
formation that President Roosevelt, in
accordance with his promise announced
a long time ago, is taking steps to do
negotiations.

Special Cable to The Herald
FARIS, Jan. 31.-French dancing peo-
pie of the academical, or conventional

arms against the cake walk and other
modern innovations of the kind. An

with his colleagues, to run the minuet,
graceful and elegant dance of old
times, in opposition to the exotic and
inartistic terpsichorean movements
borrowed from the black people OF San
Domingo and elsewhere.
All this and more appears In the
program issued by the anti-cake walk
ers, who have formed the new "Acad-
emy of Dance" and asert that they are
determined to make their influence felt
