 Tt seems incredible" he said. 'l do not believe any other man in my place would have dared to hope foi the possibility of peace on conditions to which we have just agreed. On all sides from President Roosevelt down to my own friends in Russia, I re. celved up to the last moment, even this morning urgent representation that samethlng should be paid to Japan At this point NJ. Wltte almost lost con. trol of himself. He paused.
 ''The Japanese wanted to take our lnterne ships and have not consent ed. The Japanese wanted to limit our naval power in far east and 1 have not consented. The Japanese wanted war indemnity or reimbursement for eost of war. and have not consented Ths Japanese wanted Chinese Eastern rail- way south of Harbin, and gave them only the railroad in the possession of their troops south of Chantafu. The Japanese wanted the Island of Sab !. halln. and I refused it, agreeing. how ever, at the last moment to cede the southern half. and then only because was commanded by my sovereign to yield and obey. Not only we do not pay so much as q copeck, but we ob. tain half of Snkhalln. now in their possession. At this mornings meeting I presented my written proposition. which was the Russian ultimntum. 1t was accepted by the Japanese. was amazed could not anticipate such q great and happy issue.'

DIE BY MUTUAL AGREEMENT
New York Man Kills Wife, Shoots
Pet Dog and Then Commits
Suicide.

Albany, N. Y, Dec. 23.-Fred S. Har.
low, of Saratoga, aged about 60, and
his wife, about the same age, are dead
as the result, it is believed, of a mu-
tual agreement carried out by shoot
ing Friday in their rooms in this city.
A letter now in the hands of the coro-
ner leads the police to believe that
Harlow shot his wife, then killed their
pet dog and finally shot himself. The
Harlows have lived here about six
months, and SO far as is known the
man had no regular employment.
The letter left by Harlow was found
clutched in his hand. 1t says: "Our
money is gone, and when that is gone,
of course, your friends are, and we
have no place to go, and am not able
to work. What to do we don't know,
but we have agreed to go together
with little Bessie (the dog), the best
friend we have"
A second letter explains that q
friend to whom Harlow had loaned
over $1,000 to help him out Of trouble
had failed him. The letter concludes:
''The trouble is, have been too good
to my friends-those thought were
my friends

ADMITS Receiving
FALSE REPORTS
INSURANCE EXAMINER SAYS
HE KNEW COMPANY CON-
CEALED ITS PROFITS.
BOOKS WERE FIXED
TO SHOW NO GAINS
Concerns Objected to Criticisms in Re-
port and They Are Eliminated
Ledger Values CT Real Estate Are
Scaled Down.

NSW 1OIh, DeC. "a - EXdmlueE
Vanderpoel, of the state insurance de-
partment, testifying before the legisla-
tive investigating committee Friday
said he was aware that the report Of
the Mutual Life Insurance company to
the insurance department for 1904 was
not entirely correct. The report
shovel no profits, from the sale of
lelger assets. He knew this to be un-
iue.
Mr.. Vanderpoel said that in report
on the Mutual Reserve in 1899 he
criticised the company. The company
objected to these criticisms, and when
the report was published the objection
able portion had been eliminated.
Louis F. Payne was superintendent of
insurance in 1899. Mr.. Vanderpoel
said the superintendent of insurance
has the right to eliminate anything
another case where any of his reports
had been expunged
Stephen M. Smith, second assistant
treasurer of the Mutual Life, was called
as the first witness before the COIN
mittee. Before the session began it
was learned that Former Superintend-
ent of Insurance Louis F. Payne, will
testify some day next week. Mr..
Smith produced a statement of the net
profits OF the company from the sale
OF securities in the past ten years up
to September 30, 1905. This showed a
N fn 1o
count of $12,826,429, exclusive of $780,
900 OF international mercantile marine
bonds that were marketed off the books
in 1903. ...
Values Scaled Down.
Charles F. Preller, auditor of the Mu-
tual, testified that he received the
quarterly reports of those profits from
the treasurer, and said it was the Gus
tom to credit profits and charge losses
on securities to the profit and loss
account. 1t was the custom to reduce
the book values of real estate and
charge the reduction to profit and loss
by instruction from the president of
vice president. The figures of the net
profit were annually submitted to the
president or vice president, who would
instruct what adjustment of the ac-
count should be made, and what
amounts should be debited to the profit
and less account by reason of the re-
duction of the book value of real es-,
tate. In 1904 there was a net profit
from the sale of securities of $1,O36,-
40, and at the end of the year by ad-
justment there was charged off
$1,047,645, so that when the account
was closed there was no profit shown
from the sale of securities, the book
value of real estate being reduced, so
that all profit was Offset. A number of
the reports of the net credit to profit
and loss by the sale Of securities of
other years were inquired into by
Mr.. Hughes.
Superintendent Hendricks and Chief
Examiner Vanderpoel, of the insur-
ance department, testified Thursday
that they had never heard that the
profits of the Mutual Life were greater
than reported, and that the profits had
been used to conceal losses. This line
of inquiry was taken Friday to bring
ont how this manipulation of figures
was carried out.
