northward into Tennessee and Arkansas.
The winds at the storm center have
abated somewhat. but IL is still Consid-
cred inadvisable for vessels TO navigate
middle gulf waters. The indications are
that the disturbance Will move slowly
northward and cause general rains over
the central gulf States, Tennessee, ard

NEW YORK, Sept. 2e.-Jacob II.
Schin- senior member OF the firm of
huhn. Loeb & Co, was a witness before
the legislative insurance investigating
committee this morning.
Mr.. Schin was former director of the
Equitable Life Assurance Society, but
resigned when the directors of the So
ciety failed TO adopt the Frick report
Schin said that he had been a director
of the Equitable since late in 1898.
When you became a director in the
Equitable. did you consider the pro-
priety of acting as such when your firm
had dealings with the society?' asked
Mr.. Hughes.
Il did,
Did you take advice?"
Was Advised.
''I took advice"
What were you advised?,
That could act with propriety"
Mr.. Schiff took occasion, at this
point, TO make the startling statement
thet in the general run of Corporations
or companies the directors were moth
ing more than dummies.
Powerless.
Under the existing order of things
directors have no power and in many
instances are a negligible quantity.
The executive officers are in full con-
troll and they come to the directors
only for advice.
If the executive officers wish to con-
ceal irregularities. they can do so with
out the knowledge of these directors

The Withdrawal of Mr. Yates will
leave the field open TO former Attorney

to announce their candidates. 1t is
understood that both will make an ac-

vidends are being increased on every hand. Even the Rio Tinto has sd- vanced the semi-annual dividend On its e5 shares of common stock 10 4Os. or at the rate of so per cent. I he Boston group of copper mining com panies will distribute enormous Ircfits during the coming three CT four months. As was previously pointed out, the copper mines of the United States will earn about s55 ,000. 900 net this year. and this will make possible larger dividends than were ever paid in the past.
 The purchase of a controlling inter- est in the Superior Copper company by the Calumet & Heela should prove a tremendous facter in the copper share market in the near future. If the largest Lake Superior company proposes to continue buying land and mining interests in that district it will soon establish a new basis of values there, and this will probably find expression in the market prices of the stocks of inactive mines and of land companies. It may give us even a broader market in the stocks of Lake Superior mining prospects than we have ever had before. There are. indeed. great possibilities in the cop per share situation that have not yet hean discounted.
 It is well to remember that the best of the copper stocks are still tie cheapest. The producing mines are getting the full benefit of the high level of metal prices and are building up enormous cash surpluses and pre-
