he bought the Hyde stock because he
believed that by doing so he could
prevent the most tremendous panic
the country mad ever seen, which in
his opinion wonld surely have follow
ed had the Equitable been put into the
hands of a receiver.
Mr.. Ryan said that after his pur-
chase President Hartman of the I'm

deal. Under pressure he declared tnat
the statement that Hartman would
force an investigation If. he was not
allowed in on the deal was untrue,
Mr.. Hartman had never made such Il
threat, he said
Mr.. Ryan said he gave MS personal
check for 100000 to Hyde for 502
shares. He had not placed the stock
as collateral to secure the loan or 70
pay for any part Of the purchase, but
had placed the stock In the hands OF

said no agreement existed for turning
