Before the legislative committee on October
II was shown that $2,692, ,931 80 had been re-
oeived by Robert H. McCurdy and Louis a.
Thebaud from the Mutual Life in less than
twenty years. Information in the hands of the
committee showed that President McCurdy him
self received in salaries approximately 81 900 900
in the same period. The vast sums received by
the TWO younger members of the family were
mainly through commissions for foreign and do
mestic insurance well for salary, and the
net income Of the three members of the family
from the Mutual Life approximated $4,000
in 1904.

Disclosures Of Mutual Methods
Made IN the InUeStigatiOn.

Charles e. Hughes, counsel for the legislative
committee, turned his searchlight on the Mutual
Life early in October. Interesting depositions
and disclosures followed thick and fast
One Of the first was the fact that Mr.. Nc
Curdy received the largest salary Of any in
surance- president in either hemisphere. He
received. yearly a salary Of sI5o.000. From Mr..
NcCurdys- testimony it was estimated that the
McCurdy family had received in round figures
100000 in the last twenty years. *
The testimony disclosed that the Mutual Life
made big contributions TO campaign funds and
that there was a triple alliance" to prevent
undesirable legislation. Mr.. McCurdy testified
that his company to his knowledge had not
contributed to State campaigns. Senator Platt
afterward declared under oath that he received
