though his term would have expired would
enjoy a still stronger influence and following.
Accordingly settlement was made with hln
on December 80. just two days before his term
expired
Those who followed the course OF Albany
politics last winter concurred in Mr. Hyde's
view that although Mr.. Odell woud longer
be Governor in the 1903 session. in December
1904. with Senator Depews denomination, it did
actually appear that Mr. Odell would have still
stronger influence in the 1905 legislature than in
the one preceding it. Subsequent happenings
however point TO the falsity of this view. they
added.
It is said that the bill referred TO was intro
duced on March 81 1904 and that his suit was
settled the date already noted.
Mr.. Lauterbach said last night that Mr.. Odell
would clear UP everything the stand befora

date of the beginning of the action against TIE

Judge Pollock Decides Point in
Illinois Life Case.
Clerk Had Right TO Put Property
on Tax Rolls.
1T INVOLVES S2S,579.
Question Of Its Collection Yet to
BE Decided.
1T INVOLVES s2s,579.
Company Claims Half Million
Securities Not Taxable.

That County Clerk Newman and the
board of county commissioners have
the right at least to place on the tax
rolls for the purpose of general taxa
ton the property of the Illinois Life
Insurance company in this state is the
decision of judge Pollock of the United
State district court. Judge Pollock
handed down this decision yesterday
afternoon. The decision does not cover
the point as to whether or not the
company can be taxed on this property.
That is a question which future litiga-
tion VIII have to determine.
The Illinois Life Insurance company
has on deposit with the state treasurer
five hundred thousand dollars worth OF
securities as an evidence Of their abil-
itY to meet their policies in force IN
this state. These securities are depos-
tied in accordance with the provisions
Of the insurance law.
County Clerk Newman and the board
Of county commissioners decided that
these securities were tangible properly
IN this state and were subject to taxa
ton Along in July last County
Clerk Newman started to hold an in
vestigatiOn for the purpose OF seeing
whether or not this property of the IL
Iinois Life Insurance company was SUD-
ject to taxation. Before he arrived at
a conclusion the law firm Of Mulvane
& Gault. representing the insurance
company, went to the probate court
and got out an injunction prohibiting
Mr. Newman and the county commits
siOners from proceeding any further in
the matter. The United States court
was not sitting at this time but as
soon as it convened the proceedings in
the probate court were dropped and a
temporary order was obtained from
Judge Pollock in the United States
court restraining the county officers
from proceeding in the matter.
Arguments as to whether or not
were made before Judge Pollock not
long ago and the firm of Hazen &
Cav. together with County Attorney
Hungate, appeared for the country Of
ficers.
Judge PolIock's decision was on
these arguments and he sustained the
contentious of the attorneys for the
defendants He abrogates the tenn
porary order given to the Insurance
company and gives the county clerk
and the county commissioners the
right to proceed in the matter and
place the property OF the company on
the tax rolls. This the county au-
fhorities viii do as they have decid-
ed that the securities in question are
subject to taxation
1t will now be the duty of the cOun-
ty treasurer to proceed to collect the
taxes on this property which will
amount to about S2S,579 for the two
years in controversy. 1t is probable
that the insurance company viii re
sist the efforts to collect the tax and
then suit viii develop which viii de-
termine the fundamental question as
to whether or not the insurance com
pany can be compelled to pay taxes
on these deposited securities.
