OF
GERMANS IN LINE
COMMEMORATE HISTORICAL
EVENT
Great Throng Celebrates Anniversary
of First Teutonic Settlement in
America-Day's Festivities
at Chutes Park

Five thousand German-Americans
paraded the streets of Los Angeles yes
terday morning in honor of the first
settlement of the German people in
America, October 8, 1858.
1t had been announced that the pro-
cession would form at Seventh and
Main streets at o'clock and long be-
fore that time families began to line
the streets. The spectators were dis
appointed by delays which prevented
the procession from starting until IL
o'clock. When a start was made. how
ever, everything moved like clock
work.
The procession was formed as previ-
ously outlined in the The Herald, nut
owing to the lateness of the hour the
line of march was curtailed. The start
was made and the line moved north
on Main street to Court; west to Spring
street; south on Spring to the junction
of Main, where a countermarch was
made to Fifth street, returning to the
junction of Spring and Main streets,
where the procession disbanded.
The parade was emblematic of the
sturdy, industrious German-American
people and there were no pains spared
to make it a successful commemora-
ton of the anniversary.
The police squad, under Captain Au-
BILE, followed by Grand Marshal Otto
Steiner and the aids, We're out in their
full glory, and the procession that
followed seemed to catch up the lead
ing features of the occasion.
"Uncle Sam" with his characteristic
attire, was quite conspicuous as he
trudged along with his wise" de-
meanor. The different societies came
in for their share of attention as they
rode and marched along the streets.

Effect Entrance to X. kondo's Room
and Steal $40 While Owner
lie

Daylight robbers sawed hole
through the floor of the home of X.
Kondo, 214 Bellevue avenue yesterday
afternoon in the absence of the family,
and after gaining entrance to the
house stole $140.
From appearances, it is believed by
the police that the burglars knew the
location of the money and were aware
of the absence of the family.
Kondo lives above his pool hall with
other Japanese, who knew of the hiding
place of the money.

You may be sure that when the manufac-

suitings we didn't give him time to change
his mind. He found that he'd woven not
wisely but too well"; in other words, he
was overstocked on a quantity Of the

so many suits and separate coats this fall.
So, to restore his own trade equilibrium
he let US have the entire lot at loss to
himself, and at price ridiculously low in
comparison with their true values.

many of their duplicates in our own regu-

by studying the bank clearings as
reported weekly by the mercantile
agencies. In that way you can become
informed as to what any large town is
doing. The clearings of every impor-
tant city in America experienced a big
slump from 1892 to 1897, some of them
shrinking nearly so per cent. The av
erage daily clearings of New York city,
for instance, fell from $11S, SCI, 1872 in
1892 to $79704, 1926 in 1894, a decrease of
nearly $39,000,O00 a day. or over 80 per
cent.
This loss was general and continued
up to 1897. New York's clearings aver
aged over $10,000,000 less per day even
in 1897 than in 1892. Los Angeles
showed the jolt in some degree only
in 1893 and 1894, then began to climb

MISSOURI MAY BAR
 INSURANCE COMPANIES
State Superntendent Says the New York Life Is Not the Only
 Offender.

Jefferson City, Mo-, October 5.-W. D. Vandiver, state superintendent of insur- ance, who last night stated that unless the moneys alleged to have been misused by the New York Life Insurance com- pany were returned and a complete' change in management immediately ef- fected, that he would revoke the charter of the New York Life Insurance company to do business in Missouri, tonight gave out the following statement to the Asso- ciated Press:
 There are other companies that may have to be dealt with besides the New York Life, and therefore I think it Is im- portant that whatever action is taken, shall be carefully considered so that con- sistency may mark the treatment all the way through. Of course whatever action is taken will affect only the new business of the company, and can have no bear ing upon contract already issued
 There are three ways in which the in. surance superintendent can act upon these matters under the laws of Mlssouri:
 'l Immediate revocation of the license.
 2 Temporary suspension of the com pany pending further investigation
 B. For the superintendent to demand a change of management and the refund ing of the issued money, or both, giving the company a reasonable time to com ply with the demand, and if the demand Is not complied with, to put in operation the first or second method of procedure"

JEROME WILL PRESENT
 CASE TO GRAND JURY
Says Revelations In Mutual Are More Shocking Than Those of
 Equitable.

New York, October 5.-District Attor- ney William T. Jerome announced in a statement to Justice Davey in the crim- inal branch of the supreme court today that he intended to present to the extra ordinary grand jury the revelations af- fecting the conduct of life insurance bus mess which has been made before the legislative Investigating committee. MT. Jerome said the inquiry by this commit tee has shown greater obliquy and moral obtuseness on the part of the persons important in the business world than did the shocking revelations'' In regard to the Equitable Life.
 He said there was public excitement and a sense of outrage at what had been done and that 1t would undoubtedly meet with general commendation If he were to select several individual transactions and place them before the grand jury at once However, he regarded 1t as his duty to wait until the Investigating com- mittee had completed it's work and than to ask for an extraordinary grand jury and lay before it the matters disclosed by his own study of the situation. as well as that of others. This he said he in- tended to do.

New York, October @6--Lawyer Charles E. Hughes counsel for the insurance in vestigating committee. sent a letter to Samuel Untermeyer, counsel for discrimi- nation in favor of MT. Hyde in his ex- animation before the committee.
 MT. Untermeyer had informed MT. Hughes. that Mir. Hyde would come be- fore the committee provided he was not required to answer questions about mat ters concerning which he had been sued and that he was allowed to be represent ed by counsel. In his letter MT. Hughes says:
 .I beg to acknowledge receipt of your letter in which you say that Mir. Hyde is willing to appear and to testify as a witness, provided he Is not examined as to matters that are embraced in pend ing litigation and that he is permitted to be presented, advised and re-examined by his counsel. Your proposition has been brought to the attention of the com mittee and on reply I am instructed to say that no discrimination will be made in favor of Mir. Hyde with reference either to the scope or to the manner of his examination. He will have oppor- tunity to state fully all facts pertinent to the investigation and it Is hardly necessary to add that he will be treated fairly and impartially"
