MIR. LEWIS PROTESTS.
Painters Union Indignant Because Of
Certain Intimations

Business Agent William NJ. Lewis of
Painters Local Union, No 1868, today made
a statement relative to the investigation
that is being made by the authorities con-
corning the death of Frank Handy, caused
by the fall of a swinging scaffold at the
Cairo apartment house
1.-THE members of our union are justly in
dignant," said Mr.. Lewis. Eat the intima-
lions that have been made in an effort to
connect the painters union or some of it's
members with the unfortunate accident.
We have never bothered Mr.. Ernst or his
workmen at any time or on any occasion,
and no member of our local is in any man.
I examined the broken rope and found that
the scaffold had been supported by sin
gle strand.
"The cause of the breakage undoubtedly
was the swaying back and forth of the
scaffold after it had been pulled up under
the cornice, the taut rope at the point of
contact with the edge of the cornice hav-
ing been cut nearly through by the con-
slant saving motion caused by the wind
Another thing, Mr.. Handy was not
trained painter, as has been stated, and
was, therefore, not familiar with the
proper rigging of a scaffold or it's safety.
He was a laborer before Mr.. Ernst en-
ployed him to paint.
1.-The members of Painters Local, $685."
concluded Mr.. Lewis, ARE not the kind of
men who would stoop to do anything so
dastardly as has been alleged against
them by intimation and insinuation at
the coroner's inquest"

FAILED TO FIND ACID
EXAMINATION OF ROPE THAT
CAUSED HAMBY'S DEATH.

DR.. r. L. Lynch, acting chemist of the
health department, failed to find any evil
dence of acid on the specimen of rome
turned over to him by the police after
the inquest was held over the body of ]
Frank Handy, the victim of the accident
at the Cairo Hotel. He also failed to find
that the rope had been burned.
Detective Peck, who has been detailed
on the case is more firmly of the opinion
than heretofore that the breaking of the
rope was an accident and not the result
of any tampering with it.
1t Is likely the accident will cause a
discussion of the question of having an
inspector to look over such scaffolds in
the future. 1t is said that some of the
inspectors in the Office of the building
inspector have recommended the appoint
ment of such man. Nothing has yet
been stated by friends of the deceased
to cause the detectives to believe that the
breaking of the rope was due to anything
other than an accident.

PIG IRON PRODUCTION.
Unusual Output of the Southern Pro
ducers-Heavy Orders.

NEW YORK, February 16.-It is esti-
mated that during the past ten days the
leading southern producers of pig iron have,
says the Iron Age, sold an aggregate of
100000 tons, of which approximately 10000
tons was taken by a large firm ofmerchants,
while the principal pipe makers took 10000
tons, and an independent pipe interest pur-
chased 1900 tons.
The extraordinary statistical position has
aroused much interest, and buyers are
showing decided disposition to cautiously
feel the market for deliveries well into
the third quarter. This is true of eastern
steel makers on basic pig IRON
The position of the United States Steel
Corporation is shown by the fact that a
few days since lot of 5000 tons of pig
iron was purchased for immediate shipment
to the Lorain steel plant. This comes on
the heels of the recent buying. which was
supposed TO have taken care of February
needs
Some good additional orders have come
to the steel rail makers. One company at
South Chicago now has 425,00D tons on
it's books.
The plate and structural mills are Sc
curing fair amount of tonnage. Develop
ments for the rest of the mouth will be
watched with redoubled vigilance.

Effort at Agreement.

Directors who are affiliated with both
sides attempted yesterday and early today
to bring about an agreement So far as
known, however, no compromise has been
affected
1t Is said that at the meeting of the direc-
tors a week ago Mr.. Hyde offered to place
$40 shares which he controls in the hands
of the directorate for five years These
shares, whose par value is but s51 900, are
held by Mr. Hyde, his mother, and his
sister, Mrs. Sidney Dillon Ripley. This
offer was refused.
Mr.. Hyde has suggested a plan looking
to the naturalization of the society. This
plan provides for the appointment of a
representative committee, the composition
of the committee to be such that no charges
of one man rule can be made against 1t.
The Hyde party also offered, through its
counsel to mutualize the company and then
have the board of directors directly respon-
sible to the policy holders for the active
management. This plan was also rejected
the opposite side claiming that as the ma
jority of the directors were appointed by
the Hyde interests the obvious result would
be to strengthen Mr.. Hyde.

1t may be necessary for the fleet to spend
day or two on the river between Alexan-

FIGHT FOR SUPREM
CONTEST WAGED TODAY
BY INSURANCE DIRECTORY.

NEW YORK, February 16.-The crucial
point in contest involving control Of four
hundred millions of dollars will be reached
this afternoon when the directors of the
Equitable Life Assurance Society meet to
consider the question of changing the as
ISOLATION from a stock to a mutual COM
pany. On one side is James H. Hyde, vice
president and holder of a majority of the
society's capital stock, while arrayed against
him is President James w. Alexander Of
the association, together with thirty-eight
other officers of the society.
President Alexander and his supporters
have proposed a plan to change the as
ISOLATION from a stock to a mutual COM
pany. Their proposition, If agreed to, Mr..
Hydes friends declare, would practically
eliminate Mr.. Hyde from the management
of the company even though his major
ity holdings of the stock of the company
was retained. 1t was said that the reor-
ganization contemplated the retirement of
Mr. Hyde as vice president.
Both Mr.. Hyde and President Alexander
had given out statements prior to today's
and it was apparent from these that the
positions of the opposing interests were
widely separated. Mr.. Hyde had declared
that while he favored the mutual plan to
a certain extent, he had no intention what
ever of giving up his control of the COM
pany. President AleXander's statement de-
clared that Mr.. Hyde's retirement was

CARL SEIZURES SCHOOL
DAYS.

Carl Schurz's "Reminiscences

December number of the soldier
statesman's school days in Ger
many. HIS teachers, the methods
of his education, his school fellows,
his reading, all of the awakening
and developing influences under
which he came, and described with
an unconscious tenderness of recol-
lection which gives rare charm to
the story. Carl Schurz is the type
of fighting idealist whose triumph
seems at hand in the awakening OF
political and financial morals that
is the order of the day all over the
land.
The environment and educa-
tional methods which produced a
chracter of Schurz's conspicuous
worth is a bit of human history OF
great Importance in itself, but 1T is
the story Schurz tells that makes
the narrative good reading. 1t is a
panorama of simple noble boy
hood full of earnest endeavOr, and
lofty purpose, tempered by just a
mOdicum of lovable human weak
