BIG OIL STRIKE At
MOUND PRAIRIE.
sOMERV|LLE IS NOW Celebrating
OH Flowing Freely Over Top Of Pipe
and q High Grade Article.


A telephone message from an
entirely reliable source was re-
ceived here from Somerville last
night announcing big oil strike
at Mound Prairie, Burleson county
yesterday. Mound Prairie is eight
or ten miles from Somerville and
the people of that city are
greatly enthused by the lucky
stroke of good fortune, and were
celebrating last night.
The oil, which is of high grade,
flowed freely over the top of the
casing. The well, which is be-
tween 500 and 1000 feet deep, was
brought in by Driller John Booth,
and is a wild cat proposition,
though the presence of oil there
has been surmised ever since the
beginning OF the Beaumont excite
ment. The we'll is owned by the
Mound Prairie lOil Co., OF which
DR.. NJ. n. Mayheld is'president.
A big rush for the scene and a
sharp contest for land and lease
holdings is sure to follow. This
city being close to the new field
adds to the interest which will b
felt here.

TELLS OF BRIBE OFFER.
Insurance Commissioner Tempted
zcitb Campaign Contribution.

Milwaukee May 16.-Before the special in
surance investigating committee Of the Wiscon-
sin Legislature this afternoon Insurance Com
missioner Host testified that on June l6, 1903,
the date on which the hearing in the case OF the
State OF Wisconsin agt. the Equitable Life As
surance Society OF the United States for q
compulsory distribution OF the surplus Of that
company to Wisconsin policyholders was to be
held by him. Secretary of State Walter La
Houser entered the Insurance Commissioners
office and said that If Mr.. Host would render a
decision in accordance with a slip handed by
Mr.. Houser to Mr.. Host, which would have been
a decision favorable to the Equitable company,
that the Equitable Life Assurance Society would
give $1,000 toward campaign fund for re-
nomination of the state officers in the next cam
paign.
The slip which Insurance Commissioner Host
testified Secretary of State Houser handed to
him was presented to the commission and con-
tanned it these words:
Petition is denied and same is dismissed for
the reason that a determination Of the subject
thereof requires the exercise of judicial function
that cannot be exercised by the defendant.
cit is further announced as a rule Of this de-
partment that similar proceedings be enter
tanned until final adjudication of the same Is
had in the courts Of the state"
Mr.. Host testified that he told Mr.. Houser that
he would think the matter over. His decision
was against the Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety, which afterward took the case into the
courts and there obtained rule adverse to Mr..
Hosts order for compulsory distribution Of
the suprlus deferred dividend policies at least
once in five years.
Insurance Commissioner Host further testified
that Robert Luscombe. who has for years rep
resented insurance companies before various
Legislatures, telephoned TO him three times from
Chicago between June 16 and July 81. 1903, the
latter having been the day on which Mr.. Host
rendered his decision. and asked Mr.. Host to
come TO Chicago, saying he thought he had an
argument which would convince Mr.. Host that
the statute in question not compulsory.
Secretary Of State Houser took the stand In
his own defence and admitted that he and LUIS
combe were friends and declared that Luscombe
had handed him the written slip Of paper which
he had handed to Mr. Host and requested that
he give II to the Insurance Commissioner. Mr..
Houser. however. emphatically denied that any
mention was made of a campaign fund contri-
button at the time Of his handing the slip Of
paper on which the Equitable decision was
written to the Insurance Commissioner.
Correspondence read showing that Mr..
Host had informed Attorney General O'ConnOr,
who Is his private attorney, of this Houser in
cident many months ago, and that Mr.. O'ConnOr
had brought Mr.. Host before the committee to
testify in the case.

OLYPHANT TO TESTIFY.
Mutual Official Coming Home at
Jerome's Request.

hooert olyphant. trustee of the Mutual Life
insurance Company and former chairman OF its
committee on expenditures, sailed from Europe
yesterday. and will be in this city in time 20
appear as a witness before the special grand
jury the latter part Of next week His return is
in obedience TO a request OF District ATTORNEY
Jerome conveyed through Bowers & Sands.
and is in keeping with promise he made be-
fore his departure that he would come back Il
Mr.. Jerome wanted him.
H P. Velte counsel for Andrew c. Fields, yes
terday contradicted a report that Fields had
been in conference with Mr.. Jerome and had
made full confession. agreeing to be a voun-
tary witness regarding the disposal OF a fund OF
100000 year at Albany Fields is still at
Ocean Grove and is said to be too i'll to come
TO this city. but Mr.. Velte says ne will come as
soon as his health permits.
Three witnesses were before the special grand
jury in the Mutual investigation. They were
Emory McClntock, president OF the Mutual:
Charles A. Preller. it's auditor, and c. Clifford
Gretsinger, assistant auditor Mr.. McClintock,
who was the company's actuary in the scandal
period never had anything to do with the ''yel-
low dog transactions. The other two witnesses,
it is said, were able to give information as to
the passage Of the vouchers for yellow dog
payments through the hands OF various officials.
but knew nothing about the purposes Of the pay
ments.
President Peabody Of the Mutual yesterday
said it was apparent that the leaders Of the
twisting movement by which Mutual policy
holders in Great Britain are going over to the
North British and Mercantile were initiating the
amount Of the policies involved. He added:
The cable messages assert that the Duchess OF
Marlborough had S250,000 insurance in our COM
pany. AS a matter Of fact she had only be-
tween $4,000 and 100000 w w. Rutherford,
Member Of Parliament for the West Derby Divi-
sion. is represented having transferred for
himself and others 100000 Of our policies to the
North British company. Mr.. Rutherford only
had between 5000 and $4,000 Of insurance in
our company. II is true that Lord Wharncliffc
had $4,000, and that J. NJ. Walker had between
100000 and $4,000. These figures only go to
show that much Of the information which is
being sent over here from Great Britain is
true.
W. A. Day. controller OF the Equitable Life
Assurance Society, announced that he had ap-
pointed Gerald r. Brown, who had been in
charge Of the real estate operation as deputy
controller. H. r. Winthrop, the Equitable's
treasurer, announced that he had appointed
Michael Murray, one Of the cashiers, an as
sistant treasurer and also had reappointed w
B. Bremner as assistant treasurer.
II was announced that Michael Coleman an
appraiser for the Mutual Life, had resigned, and
had moved his Office to the Equitable's real
estate department. It was said that no success
sor to Mr. Coleman had been appointed by the
Mutual.

BITTER FEELING ABROAD.
Umtermyer Says Foreign Policy
holders Doubt Insurance Reform.
nv Telegraph % The Tribune. ]

Providence. May 16.-samuel Untermyer Of
New York, who was here to-day as counsel for
George B. Robinson in relation TO the Gorham
Company merger. gave an expression of opinion
on the recent taking over Ky the North British
and Mercantile Company Of S45,0OOO0O Of poll
cies held by English subjects in the Mutual Life
Insurance Company of New York. He is counsel
for the international policyholders' association.
and cabled to London advising the policyholders
not to surrender their policies.
Mr.. Untermyer said that there was widespread
dissatisfaction throughout Europe with both the
Mutual and the New York Life insurance COM
panies, due, he said, to the revelations of cor
ruption that were constantly increasing. The
attitude of the present management was re-
garded distinctly hostile to the interests Of
the pOlicyhOlders. The arrangements profess
sions of reform were ridcUled, he said, and they
were looked upon as mere stalking horses for
the discredted and deposed officials. The suits
thus far begun were believed to be mere shields
to protect the powerful financial interests that
should have been proceeded against
Foreigners have settled down to the convic-
ton. he believed that there can be no general
reform restitution until the present regime
is expelled.
