e NEW YORK, March ENGAGEMENTS on
the habeas corpus proceedings In the
case of George w. Perkins, former vice
president Of the New York Lie 1nsur-
ance Company who is charged, III a
warrant ISSUED by Magistrate Moss with
the larceny Of S4s,7o2 belonging to tho
polcy-holders OF the Now York Life
Insurance Company, which he advanced %
Cornelius N. Bliss. treasurer Of the Re-
publican National Committee, were made
to-day before Justice Greenbaum in the
State Supreme Court. Decision was re-
served. Briefs will be filed Monday by
contending counsel and then Justice
Greenbaum will tako the matter Of the
legality OF Mr. Perlsins's arrest under
adviscment.
District Attorney Jerome, arguing for
the prosecutions, said:
'"rhe question here is as to the right
Of Mr.. Perkins to pay the money Of the
polcyholders to political orsan,zatin y,
for the purpose of influencing the results
OF certain political matters at the polls.
Shall the officers of a CORPORATION or u
single officer, say, take the money Of the
pollcyholdcrs md give 1t 70 a Political
party?" 2!S2
Felonious Intent.
He said such an act is inherently
wrong, contrary to public policy, to pub
lie morality and to common decency.
EFlalf Of theltpolicyholders may have
been Democrats. and to take their money
to assist tho Republican party certainly
goes to the establishment Of feloniously
intent" he said.
Judge Cohen said that President John
Nyntt, III
ancc Company, has at different times,
directed the payment Of large sums or
money for the relief of the YOUNGSTOWN
flood sufferers and In a yellow FEVER
epidemic In New Orleans. Elc said that
Mr. Mccall believed sincerely that when
he directed the payment Of this money 70
Mr. Perkins he was acting tor the p!'st
interests of the poicyholders, and said
that while outside of his vested authority,
perhaps it was not illegal, certainly not
criminal.
Personal Funds.
II was then explained to the court
that Mr.. Perkins had advanced his per-
sonal funds to Mr.. Bliss and had been
repaid months afterwam by the New
York Life. Mr.. Perkins, he said, believed
he was doing the best thing for his COM
pany.
Judge Cohen argued that none Of the
code definitions of larceny applied to Mr..
perkins's case. Justice Greenbaum asked:
do you mean to claim that a Vice 4
president OF Il corporation cannot be said
to be an officer having control Of funds
within the meaning of the statute.
that the only officers so included are those
who actually draw the checks.
Il think. that is the meaning of the
law" replied Judge Cohen.

''The rabbi is the eXpounder to his
people of the unique literature OF Israel.
This literature is religious throughout,
and so strongly has the national genius
displayed itself through this channel that
Judaism has become almost synonymous
with religion. The dream of the ancient
Jew was not to conquer, but to convert
the world. and he bent all OF his ener-
gies in this direction, thus producing the
literature that has never been paralleled
for it's kind SO strongly did the relig-
ous instinct develop in the ancient jew
that the fire has not yet died out, as evil
denced by the fact that practically every
Jew Of modern times, while having tai
ent for nearly everything, most distn-
g,lishes himself in religious discussion.

death He said the conference numbered
POS members, leaders and teachers, 124

District of Columbia, being represented.
The address of welcome was then
spoken by Rabbi NJ Nj. Feuerlicht of this
city, and responded to by Rabbi David

the conference.
Rabbi Samuel lIrschberg of Milwau-
kee made number of announcements
and Rabbi Messing pronounced the bene-
diction. Following this reception was
held and the visitors were introduced
to the members Of the congregation.

IT. He line Of fate is that line which
generally runs from the wrist
up 20 base Of the middle finger.
In discussing the line OF Fate
it does not necessarily commit US 20 a
belief in predestination, the line merely
indicates the direction. which. / think,
we have the power 20 change. Yet IN
many hands the seeds must crop up"
but &c does not confirm that we must
cultivate them So when We are aware
Of the evil tendencies in our palms v e
can get about 10 check them II our
Will iz strong enough, we VIII surely
succeed. II we are only lmpulsive, We
viii only partially succeed.
The line IS also spoken Of as the
line Of Fortune or Luck. and the line
OF Destiny or Career. Here ] might
mention that destiny is a force Of cir
cumstances hat rules our lives indepen-
dent of ourselves.
Upon this line We may learn the ex-
tent Of outside influence that may help
10 make or mar our lives. This infoT-
nation Is said 20 be registered upon
the line through the nerves OF the sub
jecrive mind Often we find the line Of
Fate mucl more clearly defined on
hands Of some people than on others.
This shows that those with weak will
power have been unable to change the
conditions that surround them. while on
those with strong Will. perseverance
and determination may have hardly any
Fate line. So We see how important
IL IS that we consider the material
the subject is made Of. Moreover. peo-
pie who are sensitive and emotional
possess this line more distinctly. such
as the Comic. Phuosophic and Psychic
hands
So the type Of hand must never he
lost sight of IN connection with the
study Of this line. For instance, on "a
square hand that is firm. short line
viii mean as much, il not more, shan
q long and deeply grooved line on
Comic or Philosophic hard. This I have
repeatedly proven.
So. properly speaking. the line or Gate
relates to all worldly affairs. To our sue
cess or failure. 10 the barriers and
obstacles that many confront us, 2u'
the final result of our career.
4 poor Fate line does not necessarily
mean indifferent success throughout
life. but it does denote many ups and
downs before the to:' rung cf ;he lad
