FAVORABLE PUBLICITY
AT A DOLLAR A line

New York, Oct. 25.-At the session

was the witness. He is employed by
the Mutual to do q large number Of
things. but month a 60 was placed
in charge Of sending out these reports,
Mr.. Smith had vised q number Of
vouchers for the payment Of this work,
and these aggregated $1,000, with
moro bills to come in.
Mr.. Smith wrote these reports and
submitted them to Allan Forman, who
owns the Telegraphio News Bureau,
and 81 line wse paid by the Mutual
Life for the service.
These dispatches were sent to about
one hundred papers, but Mr.. Smith
did not know whether the papers were
paid for inserting them. In one dis.
patch Mr.. Smith wrote that Mr.. Mo.
Curdy's attitude on the stand made q
distinctly favorable impression, and
for this he had to pay 81 q line. This,
he said, was worth it.
Following Mr.. Smith, Walter Sulli-
van. who was in charge Of the maya
zine advertising department, was
called. He said the Mutual advertised
in twelve magazines last year at q cost
OF about $42, 900. Advertising in in.
surance papers cost about $50, 200
more. but he could not tell where the
remainder Of the $328, 900, charged up
to advertising last year. was spent.
