last few months that have learned that
Tor some little time our votes have been
auctioned on here In New York city by
Republicans who assumed TO speak for VA.
This system has become 80 rotten and Of
fenslve that ! don't care TO return to the
Senate
Gov. Higgins, Il was eaid. learned Of the
demands that had been made both upon
the gas companies and the insurance COM
panies, and while believing that investiga-
tions should be made. especially Of the
insurance companies. he took especial care
that Republicans not In the camp Of those
who had made the Matchmaking demands
TO prevent investigations were appointed
from the Senate. The Assemb lymen ON
the insurance Investigating committee
were named by Speaker Nixon after con-
sultation with Mr.. Odell.
One thing can be accepted and that Is
that certain Republicans who have since
told timidly and rather nervousy OF their
interest for the gas consumer and the in
surance policyhoder were not at first actu-
ated by any other than graft" motives.
When those became futile they howled for a
legislative investigation, little thinking
how far the probe would be jammed in.
DON'T ACCEPT, SAY INVESTIGATORS.
Persons concerned in the insurance in
vestigation with Mr.. Hughes continued
yesterday to urge him not to accept the
Odell nomination. Some OF these persons
said last night that although Mr.. Hughes |
had given them no definite answer they |
thought he was going to decline. His
whole interest, they said, Is conferred in the
insurance investigation, and they were
certain that he would take no step which
might even in the slightest degree hamper
the work Of the committee.
From some of those interested with Mr.. |
Hughes in the insurance inquiry came the
suggestion that the facts which had been
disclosed in regard to the New York Lfes
payments to Judge" Andrew Hamilton
alone would make 1t impossible for Mr.. |
Hughes to run AZ Odell's candidate and con-
tinue as counsel to the investigating COM
mittee. 1t has been shown by Mr.. Hughes |
himself in the course Of his inquiry thus |
far that at least $235 600 Of the $500, 900 |
paid by the New York Life to Hamilton
went to Albany during Odell's administra-
ton. 1t was deposited in the State National
Ropk apd was checked out by Hamilton
until only $176 remained.
HEARST WAITING IN SOME ANXIETY.
The Hearst Municipal Ownership League,
it was announced last night, will take no
action until Mr.. Hughes gives his answer
to-day to the Republicans. II Mr.. Hughes
says yes" the Hearst league will take
steps to indorse him. II Mr.. Hughes says
No. the probabilities are that Mr.. Hearst
will perforce be compelled to accept the
nomination from his own followers.
