New York, April 26.-State Super
intendent of Insurance Francis Hen
bricks yesterday told Chairman Frick
of the Equitable's investigating COM
mittee that nothing short of a most
thorough, out and out, above hoard
examination of the society's affairs
by the state agents would satisfy the
department of insurance.
Mr. Hendricks impaired this informa-
ton to Mr.. F'rick with a good deal o.
feeling in the Equitable building, and
to Senator Philander c. Knox, the in
vestigating committees chief counsel
Mr.. Hendricks was much worked up
by criticisms in the newspapers re-
garding his apparent inactivity in the
Equitable situation. He resented the
attempt of E. H. Hartman a short
time ago to tell him what sort of an
investigation the state authorities
ought to make.

of the societys investigating commit

or cover any of the Irregularities would
not be tolerated.
Before Mr.. Frick and Senator Knox
talked with Superintendent Hendricks
they had a conference at Sherry's WITH
William Whitman, chairman of the
policy holders association of New Eng
land, an Equitable organization brought
into existence by the New England
policy holders to safeguard their inter
ests Mr.. Whitman said afterward
that he had come down to New York to
get some definite information for the
New England policy holders on the
Equitable situation.
New EngIanders "Want to Know"
1--WE have been allowed to remain
entirely in the dark about this whole
matter, except as we read of disclosures
in the newspapers" said he. 1--WE have
made up our minds to get something
definite, and that il why am here.
In the good old Yankee phrase, We
want to know"
It was learned that the New Eng
lander had agreed at the conference
to postpone any action which he might
contemplate until the Prick committee
had completed it's work.
From New England organization
OF policy holders came the unexpected
suggestion yesterday that Gen. Nelson
A. Miles will be chosen to succeed

MISS ANTHONY SCORES GROVER.
Says Women's Clubs Are Necessary
and Lead to Equal Suffrage.

Rochester, N. Y, April 26.-SuSan Is.
Anthony, pioneer woman suffragist,
gave out statement in her home yes
terday in reply to the article written
for the Ladies' Home Journal by
Grover Cleveland attacking women's
clubs. Miss Anthony says: "In the
first place, the article does not sound
like Mr.. Cleveland to me and am in
clined to the belief that somebody else
wrote it and got him 10 sign it to make
some money.
"Mr. Cleveland is quoted as saying
that religious, charitable and benevo-
lent organizations of women are all
right, and that literary clubs and those
aiming to get the ballot for women are
all wrong The fact is, that when
women join charitable and benevo-
lent organizations they soon find they
can not do anything without the ball
lot
"The reason is this: I'm large ma
iority of cases the objects of charity
are the results of drink, gambling Or
visiting brothels. In other words, the
money of the men whose families need
charitable aid goes for some one OF
these vices and the women can't help
these men unless they can close the
saloons, gambling places and brothels.
For that reason the women want to
vote.
$50, when Mr.. Cleveland admits that
women may safely join charitable, re-
ligious and benevolent organizations
he at once brings in the ballot, which
alone can aid these clubs successfully.
"This little movement against US
headed by Mr.. Cleveland, because he
now has to take the lead, will scarcely
make a ripple. They may shout as
much as they please, woman suffrage
will come"
