A New York dispatch of Oct. says:
President John A. Mccall, Of the New
York Life Insurance Company, said
before the insurance in Jury begun to-
day that the company had received a
telegram from Samuel Davis. the
Superintendent of Insurance Of Ne.
vada, saying that he proposed to con-
suit the Attorney General Of the State
with a view to o possible revocation OF
the New York Life Insurance Com
pauy's license to do business in
Nevada.
"He would act," said Mr.. Mccall,
'unless certain gentlemen did certain
things that would require a considerable
amount of resignation ON their part. l
do not think they will do il, and Mr..
Davis will find things are not altogether
his way"
John c. Mccall, secretary of the com
pany, stated that there were only $4,000
people in the entire State. and that 100
of them were policy holders. The COM
pany had never thought it worth while
to have q branch office in Nevada, but
all the business was transacted from
California and Utah.
Mccall Refused Davis C. o. d.
The following dispatch was sent out
from Carson City on Oct. 4: The Car.
son News to-day received a telegram
from President Mccall of the New York

man, named Sam Davis, Controller of
the State, had to say to him. Mccall
said that he had received a telegram
from Davis, but that he had refused to
open it. 1t was sent collect. and the
charges were 1916.
This latest Of Sam Davis jokes has
very much amused the people of Car.
son. Under the laws of the State it is
impossible to revoke the license of any
insurance company doing business in
the State without first preferring
charges and giving the company a
hearing.
The result of the episode will be to
give the State a lot of unenviable notori-
ETY., causing the people of other States
to place Nevada in the freak. class.

Controller Sam Davis Wrathy and He Revokes the Com
pany's License in Nevada Pending Investigation

State Controller Sam P. Davis, who
is ex-oficio Insurance Commissioner OF
Nevada. on Tuesday revoked the
license of the New York Life Insurance
Company. thereby prohibiting that
company from ~transacting further
business in the State of Nevada. This
will not annul the policies of the com.
pany. which have already been issued
in the State. but prohibits any more
policies from being issued.
The record of the business done in
this State by the New York Life
reaches an enormous figure, as shown
by the report of the Controller. Dur
ing last year the company issued l173
policies to citizens in the State, the
policies amounting to more than
5000, 900. The amount paid in to the
company by the policy holders is given
as s102. Asst.
The company has offices in Reno,

the smaller towns of the State.
Draws Line on Campaign Funds.
The action Of the Controller was
taken after due investigation Of the
affairs of the company. In a letter
received by him from President John
Mccall it was acknowledged that the
company had donated money for the
campaign fund used in the last general
election. II was the opinion of the
Controller that, in justice to the citizens
of the State and in order to prevent the
further collection of money by the com.
pany to be used for corrupt and illegal
purposes, the only alternative left was
10 prohibit the transaction of any
further business by revoking the Ii

Gambling on Margin at Standstill

A New York dispatch of Oct. / says:
In spite of abundant crops Of grain and
cotton, heavy exports and resulting i'm

prosperous conditions throughout the

banking and other interests. the public
holds aloof from the stock market and
apparently wants non of it. Gam
bling on margin has almost come to a
standstill, aud the ~manipulaiors Of
Wall street are in the dumps.
The various pools and bull cliques
have been. for some time, working hard
to make a big market on which TO un.
load. but, so far, with very poor sue
cess. IL is certainly remarkable that the
outside public. despite the continuing
advance, has resolutely held aloof from
Wall street. There is not the same
response to the bull propaganda as in
190l-l902. the natural inference being
that investors have not forgotten the
costly experiences suffered during that
period.

to Chicago is $50. 10; packing house
products, e85. 03. aud livestock. $64.77 I.
'Strictly speaking and under normal
conditions" said MIR. Ripley. "the rate
on dressed beef should be $50 per cent
higher than on livestock. It actually
costs the railroads 40 per cent less to
handle cattle than it does to haul
dressed beef in refrigerator cars"
