BOTH SIDES Cay FRAUD.

Both Sides In the great insurance 81.
ection began TO cry fraud before the
last ballot was deposited ana indi.
cations are that the counting or
the votes will lead to almost M
great scandal rs the investigation
itself. On the day the balloting
ceased. the Winconsin legislature
took steps TO prevent just what has
occurred in New York and II Is
interesting to call attention to the
recommendation respecting the cl.
cction of. the directing officers. The
report says: "ln the Judgment Of
the committee, no plan or system
which permits proxy voting will en-
able tho policy-holders rs against
the activity of officers and agents
to control the management of ia
mutual company. We recoIAhnend
that in all such companies VT right
to vote by proxy be. s.laJisled
..Sssssy6FsEoing Quotation has pccu-
asflar significance because of tho allie.
cations which have been made by
the officers OF the international pol
icy-holders' committee regarding
proxies which have been obtained
by agents of the Mutual and New
York Life companies. In n letter
to superintendent Kelsey Mr.. I'm.
termyer last week argued that hold.
ers of proxies should be present in
person at the election and make
manual delivery OF the ballots they
have been designated 10 cast, Mir.
Untermyer then said:
The privilege of permitting any
person supporting to be II holder
OF proxy to send in ballot signcI
with his name would open the door
still wider than 1t has been opened
by the action OF tho insurance com.
panies In furnishing the numbers
OF policies for forged ana rradu.
lent ballots. The inspectors arc
supposed to have at least some
means Of Identifying the name sign
ed to a ballot with the policy-holdcr
who Is. supposed to have signed IT,
but they would have no means what.
ever of determining whether the
name OF n proxy-holder signed to
q ballot was in fact signed by tho
person holding the proxy.
The managers of the international
committee believe that there has
been much crookedness among agents
In obtaining proxies and that there
! VIII be more wrong doing in the
counting of ballots by proxy holders
because they were allowed to vote
by mail. 1t certainly would soe,.

law on the line of the Wisconsin

President Roosevelt's special com.
mun!cation to Congress yesterday ON
the discharge of the negro soldiers
was naturally a defense OF his cours,,

phatic language that he did not dc
