Baku, whose body is now lying in a
house in the vicinity of Tifis. The
prince was regarded with bitter
hatred, owing to the harsh methods he
adopted when he was sent on a special
mission to pacify the Caucasus, and
the revolutionaries threaten local
priests with death if they attempt to-
offer prayers over the body. No one
dare approach the house. Troops
have been dispatched to bring the re
mains to Tifis, and it is feared there
will be disorders at the funeral.

New York, Sept. 13.-Selling $780,
900 IN bonds IN one day and buying
them back the next day but one, a
holiday intervening, in order to keep
within statements made in the New
York Life Insurance company's re-
port to the superintendent OF insUr
ance, was the sensational disclosure
made yesterday at the session OF the
legislative insurance investigating
committee The fact was drawn
from Edmund D. Randolph. treasurer
of the New York Life Insurance com
pany, after Attorney Hughes, OF coun-
sci to the committee, had labored for
over an hour to get direct answer
from Randolph to direct question.
The inquiry had dragged through a
mass of figures during almost the en-
tire day, but it was not until near
the hour for ending the session that
the sensational feature was brought
out. earlier in the day Randolph
had handed Hughes a schedule OF syn,
dictate underwritings and transactions
that had been closed out without a
loss. Among these syndicate trans.
actions was the underwriting OF the
International Mercantile Marine.
Hughes drew from the witness that
there was an aggregate of $4,00O,OOO
New York Life money paid to j. p.
Morgan & Co. on this Joint account.
Hughes then took up a sales item
dated December 81, 1903, OF 100000
in International Mercantile stock. Re-
plying to Hughes, the witness sail
that the sale was made to ]. P. Nor
gan & Co. Mr.. Hughes continued his
inquiry into the matter and after long
and persistent questioning brought out
the admission from Randolph that the
sole purpose of the transaction was
that the company might be able TO
tell the superintendent that it had
only $3,200,00O International Mercan-
tile Marine shares.
Following this Hughes referred 10
an item on the schedule OF syndicate
transactions under date of December
80, 1904, by which 100000 bonds were
sold to J. P. Morgan & Co., London.
for $72O,000 Randolph admitted that
this was an outright sale, and loss
of $4,000 was charged off to the
profits and loss account. Various
othe transactions were taken UP
and the committee adjourned until
today when Randolph's examination
will be resumed.
