New York, Dec. 19.-Probably never
before in the history Of the country
has there been anything to compare
with the election in this city of trus
tees for the New York Life and the
Mutual Life Insurance companies,
In number of ballots cast and in the
expenditure of time and money, the
election approaches that of one of the
states of the union. Certainly, no cor
poration or society election ever meas
ured up to it In magnitude or interest
The total vote cast in both compa'
mics will approximate 100000, OF
which about 100000 will be in the
New York Life, in which the contest
has been more vigorously and more
bitterly waged. 1t is expected that il
will be some weeks before the votes
are counted and results Of the cam
