Milwaukee, Wis. July ia large num-
ber of general agents of life insurance

mission for the purpose of discussing mat
ters pertaining to legislation
]. G. Albright. general agent of Wis
consin for the Union Central Life Insur-
ance company of Ohio, produced CORES
pondence of sensa tional character between
his company and a Wisconsin supreme
court Judge, in which the latter tried to
obtain a rebate and offered the company
plan for the subterfuge under which the
Judge believed the rebate could be given
and still come within the pale of the law.
Mr. Albright said that if even supreme
court judges were willing to offer subter-
fuge plans by which they could obtain
rebates he thought there was little
wonder the rank and file of the public
were looking for rebates If they could OBJ
tain them. The name of the Judge with
whom the correspondence was had in oe-
tober, 1902 was not made public.
General condemnation against rebating
was expressed and strong addresses were
made by several agents. The general
drift of their remarks was that the COM
panles be compelled to put in the policy
a contract that the policy be void II writ

COLLIDING STEAMERS
IMPERD IsfsS dOUSANDS

81 zen Island, the Thomas Patten crashed
With terrific force into the port side of
the Persus, smashing the paddle whee,
and box. and tearing away much of the
Joiner work The Patterns bow and upper
foredecks were. badly damaged.
The impact was SO great that the ves-
sells remained fast together. No effort was
made by the Patten to break away, for
it was felt that safety from sinking lay
in the vessels remaining interlocked.
When the Patten loomed up suddenly
out of the fog, and it was seen that col
lison was unavoidable the passengers on
the two vessels became frantic with fear
Just before the crash one man on the
Persus jumped overheard, but was quickly
rescued. The captains and officers went
among the passengers in a neffort to re-
store quiet. A hasty examination indi-
Gated that neither boat was in immediate
danger, and the whistles were calling for
assistance. The excursion boat Commo-
dore and a Staten Island ferry boat
ranged along side, transfer of passeng-
ers was quickly made, and all were
brought to this city.
During the panic many women tainted
and some were bruised, but none seri-
ously.
One of the passengers from the Persus
said he had seen two men jump over
board and he thought both were drowned.
There was no confirmation of this, how
ever.
Efforts are being made to tow the dis
abled vessels toward Brooklyn.
