NO POWER TO INVESTIGATE.
The Prcsidut Cannot Appoint An Equitable
Commission.

Washington, d. c. (Special) 1t is
stated that there will be no investigation
OF the Equitable Life Assurance Society
by a Federal commission or any other
commission appointed by the President.
The Commissioner of Corporations,
who has been inqurinig into the law on
this subject, at the request of the Presi-
dent, informed Mr. Roosevelt that there
was no legal authority for him to APP
point a commission of investigation for
4 specific case of this character. Mr..
Garfield takes the ground that only Con-
gress can delegate such authority. The
law creating the Department OF Com
mcrce and Labor empowers the Bureau
of Corporations to make general inquir-
les into interstate business, but it is made
for the information of the Government
except in such cases as the President
may decide to make public.
In the case OF the Standard Oil Com
pany, the House by resolution directed
the present investigation, specifically
naming the corporation to be investi-
gated Some such action by Congress,
it is held would be necessary before a
commission appointed by the President
could make any inquiry into the Equi-
table affair.

WARSAW SCENE OF HORROR
Eight Killed and a Hundred Wounded
in Riots.
cOSSACKS IRE ON THE MOB.
A Remarkable Conflict Between the Respect
able Jewish Socialist Class and the Dlsrepui-
able Elemeut--crowds Of Men and Boys
With Axes Smash 10 the Doors Of Disreput'
able Houses

Warsaw (By Cable).-Thc riots be
tween the classes of Jews continues with
even greater ferocity.
The disturbances continued all day,
and were still in progress late at night
Eight persons have already been killed
and 100 wounded, 10 seriously. The
damage to property has been consider
able. There has been no pillaging, but
the destruction of the furniture in the
various houses has been absolute.
The mob, armed with axes. smashed
the doors and windows and brought the
furniture out on the streets, where they
broke it into small pieces The owners
OF the furniture in attempting to defend
their belongings were attacked, beaten
and even killed. Knives and rcvolvers
were used freely and many persons were
terribly injured.
A correspondent spent several hours
in the disturbed district but did not see
single active policeman. During the
day patrols occasionally appeared, but
they regarded the proceedings as merely
spectators.
The character of the disturbances is
unprecedented The whole affair is a
conflict between the respectable Jewish
socialist classes and the disreputable
Jewish element There are conflicting
stories as to the origin of the trouble.
One report is to the effect that the re-
spectacle Jews, tired of hearing the
members of their race called keepers of
disorderly houses, thieves and usurers
and other opprobrious names, resolved,
as the police were receiving brides for
protecting dsreputable houses and per
sons. to take the matter into their own
hands.
Another report has it that Jewish
roughs, in the guise OF members of the
Bund were levying blackmail upon shop
keepers, thus enraging the Socialists. In
any case, the Socialists seemingly de-
termined on a crusade against the unde-
sirable persons of their own race, with
the result that crowds OF men and boys
are now Systematically running the dis
reputable houses.
Extraordinary scenes were witnessed
when the crowds visited the better sec
tion of the city and demolished apart
mcnts filled with costly effects. Ward
robes pianos and mirrors were thrown
out of the windows. The mob in the
streets left open spaces for the falling
articles and then completed the work
of destruction.
In one place a quantity of valuable
jewelry was taken out and deliberately
smashed with stones.
The whole affair was carefully organ
lied The leaders were supplied with
the addresses Of the owners of disrepu-
table houses, and scarcely single resor;
in Warsaw escaped destruction.

WILLIAM ZlEGLER DEAD.

New York (SpeciaD William Zieg-
Ter, the capitalist and promoter Of Arc

on the steel hook of folding bed and
tore great hole in his thigh. The boy
was in a serious condition for a long
time, but he is now out of danger.
Worriment over the boy and return
OF the intestinal trouble caused Mr..
Ziegler's critical condition.
A member Of Mr.. Ziegler's household
said.
There was an understanding between
Mr., Zieger and Mr. Champ, his secrt-
tary, that if anything should happen to
Mr. Ziegler the Arctic expedition of re-
lief for the lost explorer, Fiala, should
go right along. Mr.. Ziegler's death will
