PEABODY ANSWERS
UNTERMYER
OF MUTUAL SAYS POL.
IcYHoLDERS STATEMENTS ARE
UNTRUE; CALLS UNTERMYER A
LIAR; UNTERMYER SAYS SAME.

NEW YORK August President
Charles A. Peabody, of the Mutual Life
Insurance Company yesterday made pub
lie letter he has addressed to Samuel
Untermyer. counsel for the Interna.
tional Policyholders' Committee.
The letter is an answer to one sent
the Mutual trustees by Mr. Untermyer
July 20, requesting duplicate Of the
list Of policyholders which the company
had prepared by the stencil process,
declaring that the list filed at Albany
was grossly inaccurate and charging
that the stencil list was prepared to
enable the Peabody administration TO
send foreign literature, to the policy
ers at the company's expense.
In in his letter to Mr.. Untermyer Mf.
Peabody says in part:
"No campaign literature has been or
viii be sent out from the lists at the
company's expense.
"You have voluntarily created body
which you have styled a 'policyholders'
committee of which less than onethird
are members Of this company. These
gentlemen for reasons which I presume
are entirely satisfactory to themselves,
permit you to use them for the purpose
Of giving weight to your reckless and
untruthful statements about the Off
GERS and trustees Of this company.
"Your letter of July 25 is full of state
ments that are not true and OF insinua-
tions and ineundos that are not sus-
tained by existing facts"
In reply, Mr.. Untermyer wrote Presi-
dent Peabody last night, in part as
follows:
1T is impossible to properly char
acterize the statement in your letter
without impairing the dignity of the
contest. repeat the charge that the
circular letter under date of July 2,
which has been mailed to the policy
holders at an expense of over $4,000
contains grossly inaccurate statements.
I refer especially to the statement, No
one who was directly or indirectly re-
sponsible for the conditions that existed
in and prior to the year 1905, remains
in the service Of the company"

HEAVY FINE IMPOSED
FEDERAL JUDGE cRITicIsEs vlo-
LATlON OF LAW BY THE
NEW YORK CENTRAL.

New York, Oct. 19.-Judge Holt, In
the United States circuit court, has
imposed a fine OF Sos, 900 on the New
York Central and Hudson River Rail-
road company for granting rebates to
Lowell M. Palmer, who has charge of
transportation for the American Sugar
Refining company. There were six
counts and a fine of $4,000 was i'm
posed In each.
Frederick l.. Pomeroy, assistant
traffic manager of the New York Cen
trail, was fined $1,000 on each count, a
total of $4,000.
Such a violation Of law" said
Judge Holt in passing sentence, sis
much more heinous than the ordinary
common, vulgar crimes usually
brought before the criminal courts.
Those are crimes Of sudden passion
and temptation. These crimes we are
dealing with we're committed by men
Of education, business experience and
standing in the community and as
such they should be expected to set
an example of obedience to the law,
on the maintenance of which the Sc
curity of their property depends.
This corporation received large and
valuable public privileges. 1t was un-
der the highest obligations to treat all
citizens alike. Under these circum-
stances and for an offense so clearly
fragrant it is the duty of the court to
impose a penalty commensurate with
the gravity of the offense."
