GRAND JURY liter
BAD COMPANIES.
Crooked Manner of Set
ting Losses Will Be
Rigidly Investigated

A quiet investigation is being prose-
cuted by the Grand Jury into, the af
fairs of certain insurance companies,
and at meeting to be held next Fri
day the representatives of these com
panies will be hailed before the in
quisitors to explain their shady meth
DDS OF settling losses. Admissions Of
H. c. Quinby, an attorney for the Eagle
and several other companies, and r. r.
Manners an adjuster, before the last
meeting OF the Grand Jury has given
the body lead to follow.
Quinby has been notified to appear at
the coming meeting and he has prom
ised to bring number of photographs
and other matter he admitted were of
great help in making settlements
agreeable to these companies.
Subpenas are to be served, according
to a member of the Grand Jury, on the
representatives OF the Phoenix of
Brooklyn, Transatlantic, Federal, Han
over, Milwaukee Mechanics and the
Royal of London. The last named com
pany is not the one of which Rolla "
Watt is manager, his company being
the Royal Insurance Company of Liver
pool. 1t is paying its policy holders
for losses suffered in full.
The exposure by the Grand Jury of
the methods employed by several COM
panies has caused uneasiness among
the representatives of these companies
and It Is feared they will leave the
State sooner than be hailed before the
inquisitorial body and compelled to an
swer certain questions.
partial report of the investigation
into the relief work has been prepared
by Grand Juror Cert. and 1t will likely
be presented at the next meeting. The
Grand Jury Is not satisfied with the
public statements Of the relief officials,
and an expert Is going over the books
to ascertain If there are any discrepan-
cies in the accounts.
A committee of the Grand Jury, con-
sisting Of Luther Wagner. MYRTLE
Cert and w. P. Scott, visited the relief
camps yesterday and had two hours
conference with Ernest Bicknell, Sec
rotary of the relief commission.
The members of the committee said
that they found the conditions fairly
satisfactory, their chief criticism being
that the supplies were not promptly
furnished to those in need of them
Mr.. Bicknell explained that two rea-
sons could be given for the delay. In
the first place the supplies, both food
and clothing, have been sent without
understanding of the needs of the city.
The result has been an oversupply of
some articles and a great scarcity of
others. Secondly, in the early days of
relief work it was impossible to pur-
chase supplies in the city and the
stocks could not be kept UP.
From the expressions of several
Grand Jurymen 1t is probable that the
alterations made against Mayor
Schmitz by former Police Commissioner
Reagan will not be investigated. Since
Reagan declared himself after he was
removed from Office they look upon his
charges as a plain effort to get even.

MORE COMPANIES SUED.
Actions for Insurance Are Brought in
the Superior Court.

Insurance suits against other COM
panies than the -Williamsburgh City
Fire Insurance Company are being fled
in the Superior Court.
H. J. Piersol Instituted an action yes
terday against the National Union Fire
Insurance Company and the Eagle Fire
Insurance Company to recover on two
policies for $4,000 each. Piersol holds
claims assigned by Roger Johnson, who
owned a fve-story brick building at 40
Fulton street, on which the total loss
is said TO have been $4,000. In the
case of the National Union Company it
is stated in the complaint that the de-
PENDANT has refused to pay the full
amount of the claim, or any amount
greater than rs per cent.
Maggie Murphy yesterday began
suit against the Pennsylvania Fire In
surance Company of Philadelphia for
$500 on a policy she held to cover
household furniture at S43 Ellis street.
The plaintif asserts that the policy is
in the possession of other parties than
herself, presumably the agents of the
insurance company. 1t is admitted that
the premium has not been paid, but 1t
is asserted that this fact was not made
a cause of the refusal to pay the policy.

understand why there should be any
question as to their titles at the pres
emit time and why they should take
such precaution to safeguard them.
The public records were completely
destroyed during the recent fire, there
by leaving the property owners of the
city without any legal titles to their
holdings. This fact was recognized by
the legislators of the State during the
recent special session and a law was
enacted whereby titles could be safely
established in the most expeditions
manner.
The possession of deeds, abstracts
and title insurance does not give one
legal title to his property. These are
insufficient safeguards against fraud.
