BIG SENSATION EVERY DAY
WEEK OF STARTLING DlSCLOS'
URES THAT HAS STIRRED
THE COUNTRY.

New York, Oct. S.-Closing a week,
every day of which has produced a
| sensation that has stirred the country,
the special legislative committee In
vestigating the methods of insurance
companies adjourned yesterday until
Tuesday of next week.
While other weeks of the hearing
have had sensations, no previous week
has had a sensation every day as the
one that was concluded with yester-
days session. 1t was expected the
| president of the Mutual Life would be
called to the stand yesterday, but by
a misunderstanding President Nc
| Curdy had left the Office Of the Mutual
| Life before he was called for, and 1t
is expected that he will be the first
witness on Tuesday.
Salaries Are Immense.
In yesterdays testimony the sen.
s~ational development was when Mr..
Hughes demanded the pay roll Of the
officers of the company. This was pro-
| duced and showed the salaries of these
officers since 1887. For the year 1904
President McCurdy received $150,00O;
two vice presidents were paid $4,000
each. a second vice president $17.50O,
the third vice president $4,000, and
the general manager $25, 600, who this
year will receive 100000, and the treas.
urer $4,000.
Robert McCurdy said he v knew
the salary of his father until yester-
day, when he heard it read in the COM
mittee room. He thought, however.
that there should be no limit to the
salary OF such positions, because they
should be in accordance with the ac-
cumulations of the company.
Great Work; Great Rewards.
Earlier in the day, when Mr.. McCur-
dy was On the stand. Mr.. Hughes tried
to bring out why c. H. Raymond and
the partners in his firm received larger
emoluments from the company than
any other agents in the business. Mr..
McCurdy said he did not know what
Mr.. Thebaud received from the bust
ness and that he had never talked
with him about his personal affairs.
He said it was a 'large reward for
large achievements" and that all bust
nesses of large magnitude were built
up on that principle.
During MI. McCurdy's testimony It.
was brought out that George Ray
mond, a brother of Charles H. Ray
mond. was the general agent for New
Jersey, that Howard Lewis, the gen.
eral agent for Northern New York
with an Office in Albany.
Was a Cousin
of either the vice president, Mr.. Grail-

McCurdy was asked about, was no
relative of any officer of the company,
but Mr.. McCurdy said that MRS.

He knew none Of the salaries of
these officers.
