Cuban independence Day.

HAVANA, Cuba, Oct. 10.-TOday is
the thirty-sixth anniversary Of the
beginning of the first Cuban revolu-
ton, which dates from October 10,
1868, when Cespedes Agramonte at
Yara issued the famous proclamation,
demanding Liberty or Death" The
day is generally observed as a holi-

celebrations are being held in every

while coming across he had encounter
formed a natural passage between the
mountains separating the Little Salm-
WalIa. At the time he remarked that
the only barrier was a small hill at
the east end of the canyon and proph-
esied that some time or other the
waters of the little Salmon would be
flowing down the Walla Walla.
The old man said that the only
thing necessary to divert the waters

to blast out a cut through the hill or

The old man said that to one unac-

it would be almost impossible to locate
the canyon as it is surrounded by
lofty mountains covered with timber
and underground. He said he had
only accidentally stumbled onto it in
trying to avoid a high range of hills
rising up from the Salmon.
A Tremendous Project.
1t is believed that the object of the
trip being made by Mr. Allen and the
other members of the party is to es-
tablish the authenticity of the old
prospectors story with view of di-
verting the waters of the Little Salm-
on into the Walla Walla if it proves
true and the project is feasible. The
fact that one of the company's en-
gineers is accompanying the party
lends color to the statement. The add
ed waters of the Salmon would be of
untold benefit to the Northwestern
Gas and Electric company in the way
Of added power for it's Walla Walla

tion companies using the waters OF

WOULD TAX ROADS MORE.
May Deny Canadian Pacific Fire Pro
lection Unless It Pays Taxes.

WINNIPEG, Oct. 10.-If a section
of the Winnipeg city council carries
its point. in case of fire in any build
ing of the Canadian Pacific railway,
citizens may stand by and see it burn
without the fire brigade making any
effort to check the flames. There IS
a movement to deprive the Canadian
Pacific of fire protection, the alder
men contending that the road does not
nav sufficient taxes and is not there
fore entitled to the services OF the
brigade.
The matter was first brought up
when the railway company applied TO
the council to have its private hre
alarm system connected with the citys
system. It was then pointed out that
the company did not contribute any
thing to the support of the brigade
and was not entitled to its services.
The fire and light committee is now
engaged in the task of estimating the
cost of the brigode's maintenance In
to the total assessment OF
the city. and the Canadian Pacihcs
snare will be computed. A meeting Is
to be held tonight when the whole
matter will be submitted. The ran
way win be asked to pay Its snare
and If It refuses, fire protection Will
he withdrawn. The company's prop
ertv liable to destruction by fire Is
valned at over six millions.

CALLED LEGAL EXPENSES
More Startling Revelations Made in the Investigation Of the
Three Big Life Insurance Companies by the New York
Legislative Committee.

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-The insur-
ance Investigation was resumed this
morning Robert Olipnant, trustee
of the Mutual, was the first witness.
He said that all corporations MAIN
tanned confidential legal fund.-" He
said that he had authority as chair
man to draw money on his own vouch- :
ers for legal expenses. He did not
know why the money was not paid
to the general solicitor for disburse-
ment.
Oliphant said that eight payments
Of $4,000 each had been made by MIN
as chairman for legal expenses. He
had turned over the cash to the Of
ficers. He did not consider it his
duty to know the specific uses. He
supposed some of it was contributed
to the republican campaign fund, be-
cause he had not heard of contribu-
ton coming from any other fund.
Inquisitor Hughes asked: IF a vice
president of the company asks for
money do you give it without know
ing anything about what it is for?''
'I have to-" testified Robert A.
Grannis, vice president of the Mu-
tual, in regard to political con-
tributions.
The committee was surprised to
hear that George w. Perkins had
sailed for Europe.
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1905-10-10

Grannis said he had never heard
of campaign contributions. He was
not acquainted with Hamilton. He
could not recall whether he conferred
with the New York Life represen-
tatives regarding legislation any
where in this country. He said
yThummel looked after legislation but
he could not recall having given in
structions.
Gillette, another vice president Of
the Mutual, was called. He was shown
vouchers of $4,000 each bearing his
signature. He said they were for
legal expenses. Hughes asked what
are legal expenses?"' Gillette said the
general solicitor told him the money
would be used for legal expenses"
Hughes persisted. Gillette said he
was not tod the specific purposes. Gill
lette's attention was called to the fact
that the legal expenses" of the Mu-
tual last year were S365,000, of the
New York Life, $4,000 and the
Equitable $2O4,OOO. When asked to ex-
plain why the Mutuars expenses were
so much larger than the others ne
indicated that he thought it mat
ter for the general solicitor to ex-
plain.
Richard A. McCurdy, president of
the Mutual, was called this afternoon
ito testify.
