Ar, Perkins said the profits Of the
Mexican Central deal were derived
from the sale of 100000 OF bonds by
Kidder. Peabody q Co. He said
nothing to Mr.. Winsor about "Nylic"
or sending the bonds &c the New York
Life Insurance company. He said he
probably made the latter request di-
rect TO Kidder. Peabody & Co. The
''Nylio" fund paid nothing on the
bonds. The transaction was not re-
ported to the finance committee of the
New York Life Insurance company.
Mr. Hughes brought out from Milton
Nj Harrison. the bookkeeper, that he
had put the bonds OF the New York
Life Insurance company's books as a
purchase. Mr.. Perkins said he did not
think Kidder. Peabody & Co. gave any
document 10 the New York Life TO
show that the transfer OF the bonds
TO the New York Life Insurance COM
paliy was made as security for a loan
and not a sale. Mr.. Hughes asked if
there wac any other consideration than

the Methodist church, is paying a
visit to relatives in this portion of
the state. Mr.. Hestwood is the

H. E. Dean, who recently return
ed from visit to California. Mr..
HestwOOd is largely interested in
gold mining. He was one of the
hrst explorers of the Alaskan gold
fields, and it was his account, sent
out through the associated press.
that first revealed to the world the
great wealth of the Klondike where
he still holds large interests. His
stories of the hardships endured
by the miners in those early days
in that ice bound region are thrill
ling in the extreme.
Mr.. Hestwood is vice-president,
general manager and principal
owner of the Atrevida Mining and
Development Co. His company
own over hundred mining claims
in the republic of Mexico. and
theyare now opening up and de-
velOping the largest free milling

MIR. Hestwood speaks very enthusi-
astically of the rapid progress now
being made by Old Mexico. He
states that the whole republic is
swiftly undergoing great indus
trial revolution under the impulse
of American capital, energy and
industry.
