Schiff's Disclosures
The other, most important feature
of the published testimony was the
examination of Jacob H. Schiff, senior
member of the banking and brokerage
house of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., OF New
York, and also director and mem
Der of the exec. i've committee of the
Equitable societ..'. 1t is the executive
committee which approves loans made
and securities purchased by the So
ciety. Presenting a transcript of the
sOciety's records, Superintendent Hen
bricks and his counsel proceeded to
ask questions. 1t appeared that Mr..
Schiff's firm in 1902 sold Metropolitan
street railway bonds to the Equitable
at 97H, less One-half and interest
and that they are not quoted at 81.
Something over a million of Japanese
bonds were sold by Kuhn, Loeb &
Co. to the society at 9311, and were
Several sales of collateral bonds to
the society were noted, and Mr.. Hen
bricks asked whether these were to
be considered proper security to
invest life insurance trust funds in.
Mr. Schiff thought they were.
Union Pacific Deal
Then came the exhibit of the rec
ords showing that large amounts of
Union Pacific preferred stock had been
sold to the society by Kuhn, Loeb &
Co., for most Of which the society
paid par or 500 share. For ex-
ample, on January %, 1903, the SO
ciety bought 100000 of the stock
from Mr.. Schiff's firm. paying that
amount for the same, when the stock
was selling in the market at SO, and
Mr.. Schiff himself was recorded as
being present when the society's COM
mittee approved the purchase. Mr..
Schiff denied fatty that his firm had
ever sold any Union Pacific stock
to the Equitable society, and declared
that If the records showed this they
had been falsified. An office vouch-
er was presented, recor ding the pur-
chase made through a check to Kuhn,
Loeb & Co, and Mr. Schiff asked how
that could prove the sale from his
firm to the Equitable. He denied to
the end that he had sold any of this
stock to the Equitable; but there
seems to have been no question that
James H. Hyde and his crowd of I'M
derwriters went into the $5O,000,000
Union Pacific stock syndicate, and
whether the Equitable's acquisition
of the stock came directly from the
Hyde crowd instead of from the Schiff
firm seems to be a question for the
courts to look into. Meantime Hyde
says that E. H. Hartman has the
syndicate agreement in his possession
and refuses to give It I'D.

HOPE FOR new Law
Organized Labor Inter
ested in "EmpIoyers'
Liability Act''

Among the measures before the leg
ialature in which organized labor ia
interested, none is being watched
more closely than the employers
liability act which is the product of
their joint work, says the Minneapolis
Journal. This measure has received
the Enforcement of nearly every union
in the twin cities, and of many others
In the state at large. If this proposed
law fails of passage, it will not be
because those interested have been
neglectful. A prominent lawyer was
consulted and assisted in the work of
framing the bill and every known
precaution has been taken to have a
law, should it be acted on favorably,
which will STAND the test in the
courts.
Complaint has been made for q long
time by workmen employed in the
building trades lines that inadequate
protection is afforded them under e.
listing laws, and for year or more
plans have been under way for the
presentation of law covering all the
points desired, and which would be
more satisfactory to the.-workmen.
