INSURANCE.

The exposure Of the corruption,
exhorbitant salaries, misapPro-
priation Of funds, etc., which have
characterized the New York Life
Insurance Company, the Mutual
Life Insurance Company and
others is enough to cause people
to withhold patronage from com
panies which have like methods
of business. Whether or not any
Of the officials will be punished
remains to be seen. In the mean
time the dump is open.

members Of this club, they would
awaken TO the realization that Mt.
Sterling is going forward-fast to
a flood tide. The people away
from home do not know that we
have two large Touring mills and
that their capacity is not sufficient
to supply Mt. Sterling and the
country adjacent thereto, neither
do they know that she has three
machine shops, two laundrIes, two
planning mills, a wooden factory,
bottling plant, broom factory,
tobacco factory; that more white

Mt. Sterling direct from the

greeting that was extended to them.
The distinguished visitors have come
in the midst of exceptionally warm
weather for the region about San
Francisco bay, the theGmometer hav-
ing registered as high as "a degrees in
this city. None of the members of
the party was affected, however, by
the unusual warmth.

bridge across the span OF water, Sec
rotary Taft left the special train at
Sparks, New. and took another special

the party will be thoroughly &C
quainted with the needs of the

The secretary announced his inten-
ton of looking thoroughly into the
California side of the Chinese ex-
clusion question while here.
ST am thoroughly in favor of en-
forcing the Chinese exclusion law to
the letter. said Mr. Taft, but 1 am
quite sure that it was never the intent
| of the law to bar-Chinese merchants
and students from the United States
Such a policy might work serious
| hardship to our trade in China
The secretary and party will spend
| a busy four days in San Francisco and
vicinity before departing next Satur-
| day on the steamer Manchuria for the
| Orient. Among the points of interest
which will be visited are the home OF

STRIKE FUNDS SMALL.
Contributions Have Fallen From
$4,000 Per Week to $1,000.

Chicago, July 5.-Lively debate on
questions of contributions to the
teamsters' strike fund is looked for at
the meeting of the teamsters' joint
council tonight. When the PROPOSE
ton is presented it will bring to the
fore the question of ending the strike.
There are a number of delegates IN
the council who have spoken in favor
of submitting the question of calling
off the strike to a referendum vote.
Union officials admit that the pros
poets are not bright for an increase in
the strike funds Many drivers. not
involved in. the strike, have discussed
contributing a part of their weekly
wages. Contributions from unions af-
filiated with the Chicago Federation of
Labor have decreased from $4,000
week at the beginning Of the strike to
about $1,000
More applications for work by de-
partment store drivers who have been
on strike were looked for today. More
than one hundred have sought re-
employment, but comparatively rev

great crowd, including Minister of Com
merce Clementel and General Brugere,
the commander of the French army,
witnessed the start and gave the con-
testants an encouraging greeting as
they Numbered past at the start. The
day opened cloudy and threatening and
the tribunes and streets presented a
desolate appearance after the hurricane
of yesterday which stripped off the dec
orations, awnings and flags. The crowds
began to arrive before daylight. A for
midable force of military composed of
five regiments of infantry and three
regiments of artillery cleared the track
at $50 a. m.
Thery received an ovation when he
appeared and the Americans also were
warmly applauded. The three American
machines were painted red, the French

$4,000 Of Fund Invested Under
the New System.

Since the new law providing for the
investment of the state school fund
went into effect in the early part of
April, a total of $773,7OO worth of
bonds have been offered to the school
fund commissioners by the various
cities, counties, townships and school
districts of the state.
So far the state has purchased $7O,-
600 worth of bonds. and has, on the
advice of the attorney general. reject
ed $4,000 worth. This leaves $672.-
700 worth of bonds which have been
offered, and on which the sale is tied
up until the school fund commissioners
get ready to accept or reject the offers.
There is nothing in the law to require
action by the board within any speci-
fed time, though the intention is that
action shall be taken speedily.
There was a good deal of delay in
getting the necessary record books
from the printers, and for this reason
there are some bonds on the books
that were offered a couple of months
ago, and on which the board has not
acted. The board held its first meet
ing last week, at which time it bought
$4,000 worth of the bonds offered.
Assistant superintendent of Instruc-
ton Frank B. Dyer says that it is his
understanding that the board will meet
every week, If necessary, and will, in
case of emergency, either accept or re-
Ject the bonds at once at a specially
called meeting.
In some cases it might be matter
of considerable Importance to a .mu-
nicipality having bonds to sell to find
out quickly whether or not the board
