AGAINST M'CURDYS
Damages Amounting to More
Than Three Million DOL
lars Demanded.
NAME NINE CAUSES OF ACTION


New York, March %. The first COM

ready begun by the Mutual Life Insur-
ance company against former Presi-
den Richard A. McCurdy, his son,
Robert H.. and the firm of Charles NJ.
Raymond q Co, the company's former
metropolitan agents, was made public
today.
The particular complaint is against
former President McCurdy and con-
talns nine separate causes of action. In
each MIR McCurdy is charged with the
waste of large sums OF money belong
Ing to the company through alleged
unfaithfulness and neglect In the dis
charge of his duties. Damages
amounting TO s3,250O00 are demanded
The first five causes seek recovery
in the aggregate of 1922 500. as alleged
contributions to political parties since
Jan. l. 1856. These contributions are
stated to have been $4,000 In 1896.
$4,000 in 1900 and $4,000 In 1904 to
the national Republican campaign
committee $4,000 In 1904 to the Re
publican congressional committee, and
100000 embracing the various con-
tributions testified to by Senator Platt
as having been made to the New York
Republican state committee since Jan.
/, 1885.
The sixth cause seeks to recover the
sum of 1925, 900. embracing the $4,000
alleged increased of annual salary
drawn by the former president since
June 1. 1901, without authority. as is
claimed.
The seventh cause seeks to recover
$500, 900 as the aggregate of the re-
speCtive sums of $4,000 drawn quar-
terly from the company for the last
six years Of McCurdy's presidency on
the voucher OF the committee on ex-
penditures and under circumstances
detailed in the testimony before the
Armstrong committee. The eighth
cause deals with the relations of Louis
a. Thebaud. son-n law of ex-Presi-
dent McCurdy, with Raymond x Co.,
and the gratuities and the rates of
commission received by the firm.
The final cause of action deals with
the gum OF sl.2s2,s4i received by Rob-
ert II. McCurdy as commissions from
1886. to November, 1905, as superln-
tendent of the foreign department, and
charges that by reason of unfaithful-
hes and neglect by the former presi-
dent, the commissions had been al
lowed at rates which the enormous in
crease I'm the foreign business had rem
dered exorbitant and unnecessary.
Finally the company demands iudg-
ment against ex-Presidemt McCurdy
for the sum Of s3,37O,342, with interest.

SAM JONES PASSES AWAY.
Noted Evangelist Found Dead In Sleep
ing Car.

Noted Evangelist Found Dead In Sleep
ing Car.
Little Rock, Ark, Oct 16.-The Rev
Sam P. Jones' the well known evangel-
list Of Cartersville, Ga, was found dead
Of heart failure in sleeping car on a
train Of the Rock Island railroad.
Sam Jones was known for the quaint
and original manner In which he went
about saving the souls of men. The
ordinary methods of appealing to the
sinners intellect were scorned by him.
Els system was to redeem them Ey
aiming at their conschsnce, and the
way he went about doing 1t brought
him fame which few other evangelists
have enjoyed. He was noted for the
quaintness of his sayings.
1t WI nes claim that he knew the
innermost thoughts of disbelievers and
drunkards because he himself had once
gone through the mill of dissipation
and rIetous living. He delighted In tell
ing his audiences dow he had worked
out his own salvation after the death
of his father and how he had kept a
promise made to his father as the lat
ter's life ebbed away that he would alb
stain from drink.
81 was always Methodist just like
was JONES' he used to say, speak
ing of his ancestry. He was born in
Chambers county, Ala, on Oct. I6, 1s47.
After graduating from school Jones
was admitted to the bar in November,
1869. AT this time he was great suf
ferer from dyspepsia and to alleviate
the suffering which the malady caused
took to drinking The habit grew upon
him until he was looked upon, as a
drunkard, and it was not until his fa
theirs death in August, 1872, that he
reformed
