PRESIDENT M'CURDY
STEPS down AND OUT
TREASURER N. Y. MUTUAL SUCCEEDS HIM
President McCurdy Assigns Reason for Resjgning
to Poor Healtfl.-InWstigation Will
Be Completed Dec. 81.
TREASURER N. Y. MUTUAL SUCCEE

NEW YORK. Nov. 29.-Richard
A. Nc Curdy resigned as president Of
the New York Mutual Life Insurance
Company. His resignation was &C.
cepted by the Board Of Trustees, and
Frank Cromwell, treasurer of the
Mutual was named as Mr.. McCurdy' 8
temporary successor.
Mr.. McCurdy assigns as his rea-
son for resigning poor health. He
adds that he intended to resign last
June. when he reached the age of
20 years, but was dissuaded by the
serious disturbances in insurance az
fairs. He had, however, over-esti-
mated his strength.
Justice Rufus Peckham of the SUI
preme court, trustee Of the Mutual
Life for twenty years, also resigned
today.
The resignation of President Nc
Gurdy. OF the New York Mutual Life
was the most important development
in the life insurance situation today.
1t is understood that the position has
been rendered to James H. Eckels.
One interesting feature of the inves-
tigation today was the issuing of a
Thanksgiving Proclamation" by
Senator Armstrong, chairman of the
committee, to policy holders, dis
suading them from allowing policies
to lapse because of the revelations
of the investigation, and assured
them that the committee will recon-
mend legislation in their interests.

ON INDIAN CANAL
Engineer nodman Talks Of Extsn-
sion on Big Ditch.
WILL COVER TEN THOUSAND ACRES

Engineer w. II. Redman, who has
charge of all government engineer
ing works on the Yakima indian res
ervation, was In the city Wednesday
morning. In speaking Of the canal
work being done on the reservation
Mr.. Redman told Morning Herald
reporter that the extension CT the
big canal was being pushed with re-
markable rapidity.
The government recently appro.
priated $4,000 for further improve
ments on the big ditch, which has
its intake just below Union Gap, In
the Yakima river, and this sum Is
being expended for the extension OF
the main canal and the building OF
two miles of laterals. The main ca
nal and laterals already cover more
than 80, 900 acres of excellent farm
ing land on the reservation, and
when the present appropriation Is
wholly expended, it will cover an ad-
ditional aggregate of 10000 acres.
In this work the government en-
ploys only Indian workmen and their
teams, with the exception OF the en-
cheering corps and outfits, and in
this way the Indians not only get
the benefit of having their lands
covered by water, but the money APP
propriated for the improvement of
their lands Is expended among them
also.

IN FOURTH
A CANDIDATE ON CITIZENS TICKET
Well Known Business Man will Run
for Councilman In the Place
Of Asa Schwartz.

Asa Schwartz, who was nominal
ed for councilman on the Citizens
ticket, has since the convention sold
his property in this city, and will
move into the country to reside.
This fact alone made 1t imperative
upon him to send in his resignation
as candidate for councilman from
the Fourth ward. The committee
whose duty it is to fill all vacancies
that occur on the ticket between now
and election day, have placed upon
the ticket instead of Mr.. Schwartz
name that of one OF the strongest,
most prominent and most popular
business men in North Yakima.
!. H. Dills has long been associat-
ed with the leading men of this COM
munity, and Is one of its most sue
cessful merchants. The fact that he
has handled his own extensive BUSH
ness interests with marked ability
makes him most desirable candi-
date for an once where much Of the
city's business would be intrusted to
him. No one could have been Sc
cured with better qualifications than
he possesse. His candidacy is re-
garded with favor all over the city.
The Citizens ticket IL most as
suredly composed of formidable ar
ray Of candidates. The men who
compose 1t have grown up with the
town from its infancy, almost, and II
they are elected, will undoubtedly
give q good account Of their steward
ship Of It's interests.

ing the forces who are constructing
the Wapatox ditch. The sheriff said
that the Natchez valley is teeming
with industry. Everybody Is busy,
and the rivalry which exists between
the two railroads is the chief topic
of conversation among the Natchez
valley people. Judging by appear
ances, the North Yakima and Valley
company seems to be making the
most progress. They have already
graded several miles OF roadbed for
their track. In speaking Of the Wap-
atox ditch. the sheriff was very en-
thusiastic. He thinks 1t the best
ditch in the country. While on his
trip he went as far as the mouth
of the Tietan, where he found the
snow falling very heavily.
what were you doing UP in the
valley?" he was asked.
ooh, just looking over the coun-
try" the sheriff replied. Cant tell
you anything right now--but call
again"
The fact that Sheriff Grant visit
ed all the camps up the Natchez and
went as far as the Tietan indicates
that he may have been on the track
of some criminal. There are ru-
mors in the air that may result in
some sensational news, but nothing
can be given out for publication at
this time.

McClelland testified today that he
lived in the New York Mutual's house
in Albany while a senator and a
member of the insurance committee
of that body, but 1t never occurred
to him as anything improper, as he
and A. c. Fields who conducted the
house, are old friends.
1t was shown that In several years
while not senator, Mr.. McClelland
was retained by the Mutual at $4,000
a year, and 1t was with difIiculty that
Mr.. Hughes ELECTED from him the
information that he had been re-
tanned to appear before the legisla-
tive committee to argue against the
savings bank tax and franchise tax
bills. Mr.. McClelland had just said
that he was never employed by the
Equitable Insurance Company when
Mr.. Hughes showed him a voucher
for $500 paid by the society to the
firm Of which McClelland was a mem
Der. McClelland was unable to re-
member 1t.

Mccall of the New York Life, testi-
fed that Attorney Hamilton was To-
Gated at Paris, and had received a
message from President Mccall, re-
questing him to return and testify.
The committee held protracted ex-
ecutive session at the close of the
days Aearing, at which 1t was de-
cided that the investigation should
be completed by December 81.

of the men who risked and lost their
lives and all will go into graves un-
known and unrecognized by their fam
lilies or their friends.
AS to what caused the second ex-
plosion is a matter of conjecture. The
most plausible theory is that one of
the rescuing party either fell and
broke the globe of a safety lamp, or
struck It against the side of the mine
and in an instant the gas In the mine
exploded.
After celebrating until eleven to.
night, and upon the advice of Chief
Mine Inspector J. w. Paul, no effort
will be made to recover the bodies Of
the dead men until Monday, when a
rescuing party, consisting of exper
miners and deputy mine inspectors,
will make another attempt to reach
the bodies. The mine will be sprin.
kled and every effort possible under
the existing damaged condition Of the
mine will be made for the safety of
the party, which will make the second
attempt TO recover the bodies.

COWARDLY ASSAULT
MADE ON STUDENTS
WHO WERE CELEBRATING A
BASKET BALL VICTORY.
Half Drunken Young Men Attacked
Night Shirt Parade Of Mt.
Union JolIifiers.

Alliance, o., March ia crowd Of
half drunken Alliance young men as
saulted crowd of Mt. Union students
late Saturday night in a most coward
ly manner. The Mt. Union students
were having a nightshirt parade on the
streets of Alliance in jollification of
the victory of the Mt. Union team over
Buchtel and over the closing of the
basketball season.
While the crowd was marching down
Main street giving the college yell the
Alliance fellows joined in the rear and
commenced throwing whisky bottles.
Another crowd of small boys soon
joined and began striking the men In
the rear ranks with umbrellas.
The procession marched down Main
to the viaduct and later marched
across Market. Here the supply of
whisky bottles evidently ran out for
brickbats were resorted to. The
stones and bricks few around the
heads of the Mt. Union men in very
dangerous proximity, but no stop was
made. Finally several of the Mt.
Union men were struck by the flying
missiles and some slightly injured, but
the climax was capped when Emory
Powell, the former fullback of the
Massillon Tigers football team and one
of the most popular students of the
college, was struck on the side Of the
face by brick and knocked senseless.
Tho A A11ionnn tp11n,,.c o,vfInnt1,.
nized Powell and realizing his Prov
ess decided to put him out of the way
in this cowardly manner. The popu-
larity Of Mr.. Powell and the high es-
TEEN in which he is held, together
with the dirty and low manner in
which the attack was made, makes the
offense seem greater In the eyes of all
who are aware of the facts in the case.
A little later on e. w. Stevenson,
baseball pitcher of the college, was
struck by billy or club and knocked
unconscious. He remained so nearly
all day Sunday and Sunday afternoon
the physicians reported that he was
suffering from concussion of the brain.
The event Is thoroughly regretted by
all. The Mt Union men merely went
down town to have a jollifcation.
They conducted themselves as gentle
men and as any crowd of college stu
dents would have done. They entered
no places of business in the city and
created no disturbance further than
the giving of the college yells. The
Alliance men went after them very
evidently with the avowed purpose of
starting fight and if they had started
one in an open handed manner not so
much would have been thought of the |
matter. In fact one or two rough and |
tumble fights which were engaged in .
were considered great sport. But the
use of brickbats and the striking of .
the men when they were not looking, !
with clubs and other improvised weap-
ons is considered nothing short Of a
relic of barbarism and it is to be re-
gretted that any Alliance men would .
lower themselves to the methods en-
ployed.

ONE BY ONE THEY SLID down
(, TO THE LITTLE BOAT.

In thickness. Huge masses hung from
the bridge. and the rails bent under
the weight.
A cry arose. The carpenter rushed
to Capt. Fitzgerald. His face was
white. In quick, shouted words he told
of an awful discovery. The ship had
sprung leak!
The pumps were quickly manned.
All night the men labored.
Morning brought no hope. There
were now four feet Of water in the
well.
On board the ice now weighed many
tons. All form Of ship had vanished
1T looked almost like an iceberg.
Z. Hopelessness marked every coun-
.tenance. With the water in her hold
dragging her down, and the ever
growing ice pressing heavily on the
deck, the ship lay on the verge Of
laundering.
Realizing the desperateness of their
plight, the captain ordered the vessel
to be lightened. Anchors were cast
overheard. cables, even the cargo, III
the effort to raise her q few inches
higher in the water.
On the fifth day Of the storm, when
the crew were almost ready to throw
themselves down and let Fate work
its way, a long black cloud appeared
on the horizon. A ship was in sight.
A large vessel approached, moving
rapidly through the waves. AS she
drew near, the watch on board tie
frost bound schooner saw she was the
Atlantic Transport company's liner
Mesaba. From her bridge her captain
stared with amazement at the strange
sight of what at first looked like an
iceberg, then resolved into a little
ship embedded in ice, and flying sig
nails of distress.
A boat shot from the Mesaba's side,
and made rapidly towards the Aman-
da. At the sight of it the wearied
men raised a feeble cheer, then rushed
of to collect the more precious of nor
belongings.
One by one they climbed over the
Recovered bulwarks and slid down to
the little boat that lay tossing at the
stern. Only Capt. Fitzgerald hest
tated. A thought was in his mind. He
dare not leave his ship-a derelict.
drifting in the track of many ocean
liners. The schooner must be de-
stroyed.
Without a word he turned on his
heels, and descended to his cabin. In
a few minutes dense volumes of smoke
poured from the matches.
Then the captain Joined his CON-
rades.
