SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

CALL BUREAU, POST BUILD
ING, WASHINGTON, June as
Representative Kahn made a speech
in the House tonight in which he
scathingly arraigned the FIRE insur-
ance companies for failing TO make
good the losses incurred In the San
Francisco disaster.
Mr. Kahn first described the situa-
ton in that city at the time of and
since the FIRE, paying high tribute TO
the work of Mayor Schmitz and Cen
erals Funston and Greely and thank
ing Congress and the people of the
country for their response to the cry
for aid
Continuing. he said he had learned
that sixty companies had signed an
agreement TO pay only. Is per cent OF
their losses and that only tflirty-three
or thirty-four companies had agreed
to pay their losses dollar for dollar.
Mr. Kahn pointed out with great
earnestness that this was a question
that did not concern the people OF
San Francisco alone, but all the peo-
pie of the United States
The people OF this country" he
added. ARE entitled to know which
are the honest and which the dis
honest insurance companies, and, at
the session OF Congress next Decem-
Der | shall publish in the Congress
sional Record list of the companies
of.each class so as to give notice TO
the insurers in all the States and Ter
ritories of the character of the con-
Germs that solicit their patronage"
Mr.. Kahn dwelt with emphasis
upon the fact that o5 per. cent of the
damage in San Francisco was done
by the FIRE and that the earthquake
caused comparatively little loss In
an interview after the delivery OF his
speech Mr. Kahn made the significant
remark that, as the Congressional
Record was a governmental publica-
ton, copies of his speech, which he
will elaborate for the purpose, can be
sent free to the insurers of the coun-
try.

that Anthony Comstock had been seek

gust of Thaw, for some time before the
murder. Comstock is declared TO have
admitted that he had been consulted
by Thaw about the strange actions of
White and his associates and is alleged
TO have said:

The Grand Jury's considerations of
the case followed an inquest by a Cor
oner's jury. which heard the testimony
OF several eyewttnesses and rendered
formal verdict that Whites death
had been caused by Thaw. The latter
calmly listened to the testimony. and
while the jury was out he chatted with
his counsel and a policeman sitting
near, laughing loud at one stage of
the conversation. When the jury had
