But He Did Not Tell How to Make 1t

what doubtful whether you can in
crease the digestive powers of the
stomach by eating indigestible food in
order to force it to work.
Nature has furnished us all with 4
perfect set of organs, and if they are
not abused they will attend to the
business required of them. They need
no abnormal strength.
There is a limit to the weight n man
can lift. and there is also II limit to
what the stomach can do.
The cause of dyspepsia, indigestion
and many similar diseases Is that the
stomach has been exercised too much
and it is tired or worn out. Not eX-
ercise but rest is what it needs

The report received from up river,

river had been closed to navigation
from Gardiner to South Gardiner by
solid ice from shore to shore, while
from South Gardiner down there was
considerable floating ice. This means
that the schooner Thomas B. Reed,
which vas towcd to Gardiner. yester-
day morning, will have to remain all

within q few days.
The steamer Island Belle arrived in
Bath on time. this forenoon, not being

"HoLD-uPS"
Of Mutual Insurance. Co.
Related at Hearing.
Company Pays Aggregate Of
$4,000 as Hush Money
To Lawyers and Others TO Conceal Some
Questionable Transactions.

New York, Dec. 5.-lnStanceS i'll
which the Mutual Reserve Life lnsur-
;thce Co. paid an aggregate of about
$4,000 i'll what Vice President George
ID. Eldredge of that company called
"Hold-upS" We're related to the life in
surance investigating committee by
Mr. EldredSe, today. In one case Mr..
Eldredge testified that in 1898 the
company paid $4,000 to John Nc
Donald, a Philadelphia lawyer, WHO
had been active i'll organizing the
policyholders of the Mutual Reserve,
into a movement which charged Presi-
dent Frederick a. Hurnhan, of that
company, with mismanagement and
demanded his removal. The charges
also reflected upon Mr.. Eldredge's
management as vice president and
threat was made to ask for the APP
ponItment of Il receiver for the COM
pany. Engaged in this movement of
tie policyholderS also was j. :. Hoff-
ecker, former auditor of the CON-
pany. who had been dismissed or who
had resigned. Before leaving the COM
p:tny Hoifecker informed President
Burnham that he resigned because
their IDEAS as to common honesty
differed so much ANA because he knew
OF 50 many quest ionable transactions
OF which President Durham had APP
proved. Mr.. E,ldrcdge declared that
Hoffccker was not dismissed until he
had demanded AN increase in salary
from $50 TO $1O0 Il week and PRACTICAL
ly had said it was safer for the COM
rany to keep him than to let him go,
in view of what he knew about the
company.
Another instance Of Il "hOld- up" Mr.
Eldredge said, was in 1890 when Max
Behlcr. "a So-called examiner of the
Iowa insurance department., came to
New York with his son as an assistant,
examined the Mutual Reserve and pre-
scented to it Il bill for $4S9 for the ex-
animation. Rather than pay the bill,
the company withdrew its business
from Iowa. but II little later paid that
bill and another of $34S TO Max Behler
for a verfication Of his previous cx-
animation in order to get permission
again to ito business in Iowa.
Mr. t.luredle told also how he tried
To secure Il Ii, enSc for his company to
do business in Missouri in 1898. and
foun! that it would have to employ W.
H. f'HtlIbS as attorney Delbft IL COIlu
do 50. Phelps got the license for the
company in three days ana was paid
$500 as illegal fees" Mr.. Eldredge
said.
Mr. Eldredge told the committee also
that he is certain there is no truth in
tlle statement made To u Canadian in
VeStisatin@ committee by James ID.
Wells, former vice president of the
Mutual Reserve, that Pres. Burnham of
that company had told Wells that he
had to raise 100000 to pay to the New
