FUGITIVE POSED AS MONK
Month Man Bearing Papers
Stolen in France
Special to The Herald.

special TO L he Herald.
NEW YORK, Feb. S.--The Rt. Rev.
Hilary Pfraengle, abbot of the order of
st. Benedict, sent to Chief of Police
Adams yesterday warning of the re-
turn to Newark of a young French
man, alleged to be posing as a monk.
One who wore the garb of the Bene-
defines and whose head was shaved,
applied at the Newark abbey, High and
Williams streets, on the night of De-
cember 10 last and begged shelter. 1t
was stormy, and the stranger was well
coined. He said he was priest of the
French Benedictines, recently expelled
from France. He exhibited ordination
papers bearing the name of the Rev.
Leontius Pastorelli.
Father Pastorelli' appeared to be a
pious monk, and there was nothing to
attract attention to him except a slight
awkwardness and the impurity of his
Latin. But these imperfections aroused
the suspicion of one of the younger
priests. Father Pastorelli" proposed
to secure a transfer from the French
to the American order of Benedictines.
The young priest suggested to Abbot
Pfraengle that he write to the abbot pri-
mate in Rome. Father Pastorelli'
copied a letter at the suggestion of the
suspicious priest, who compared the
writing with that in a letter of recon-
mendation purporting to have been
written by the visiting priests SUI
perior in France. The writing in each
paper was identical, 1t was also dis
covered that in the ordination papers
the last two letters of Father Pas
torellis'' name were written with diff
ferent ink. On Monday of last week
Abbot Praengle received a letter from
Rome which he displayed before a con-
vocation of the senior priests. The let
ter stated that Father LeontiuS Pas
torel, a French Benedictine had been
robbed of his ordination papers and
had reported the theft to the head Of
the order.
Father Pastorelli" was summoned
from his cell at o'clock in the morning
and charged with being an impostor.
The conVocation could not secure an
of guilt from Father Pas
torelli' until the message from Rome
was displayed. He was about to strike
his accuser when policeman was sum-
moned. on his appearance Father
Pastorelli," it is said, confessed his
fraud and pleaded for mercy.
Abbot Pfraengle secured a secular cos
tune of change for the Benedictine
garb, placed a 81 note in his hand and
ordered him from the abbey. The po-
liCeman conducted him to the Market
street station. where he was put aboard
a train for this city. Abbot Praengle
made known the facts yesterday
through one of his priests.

HAMILTON AND
NJ CALL SCORED
NEW YORK LIFE TRUSTEES
COMMITTEE REPORTS
Severely Arraiens Methods Of Legis-
latlve Aeent-President Blamed
for Allowing Expenditures
Without Accounting
BY Associated Press.

]
NEW YORK. Feb. S.-The special
committee appointed by the trustees
of the New York Life Insurance COM
pany to investigate the affairs of the
company today made a partial report
of its labors to the directors. This
report deals only with the relations
Of Andrew Hamilton, the legislative
agent, with the company and is q Sc
we're arraignment of his methods.
John A. Mccall, late president of the
New York Life Insurance company
also comes in for a share of the COM
mittee's criticism. He is blamed for
his methods i'm connection with tie
bureau of taxation and legislation"
during the last ten years. and for al
lowing Hamilton to pay out vast sums
Of money without a proper accounting
Special attention is called to remit
tances of $4,000 to Mr.. Mccall i'm
London and $134,500 to Hamilton in
Paris in 1900. The purposes OF these
remittances, the committee says, it
has been unable to ascertain, and rec
ommends that proceedings be insti-
tuted against Hamilton and Mccall for
an accounting or repayment.
The committee adds on this point
that applicat ton has been made to nv
Mccall for Information regarding the
transactions, but that it is informed
by Mr.. McCalls family that his phys;-
cal and nervous condition are such
that the subject cannot be taken up
al present. AS to Mr.. Hamilton s
health, which has been reported as
being bad, the committee says it has
been informed that he was physically
able to travel and has exerted every
effort to induce him to return to make
a full disclosure of his payments, dis
bursements and transactions but with
out success.
The committee also holds Mccall and
Hamilton responsible for $4,000 ad-
vanced to Hamilton to pay the state
tax and which the committee declares
was used by Hamilton for his own
purposes. The committee is advised
that both are liable for this sum. The
committee maintains also that it is a
matter for legal adjudication as to
whether George w. Perkins, of the
firm of J. p. Morgan & Co., is not liable
for the payment of Hamilton's notes
Tor $59,310. Mr.. Perkins paid this .ac-
count, the committee holds, out of
the New York Life Insurance COM
pany's share of profits in it's partici-
patton in a United States steel corpor-
alton syndicate. The committee holds
also that the payments of these notes
by the company was unwarranted. 1t
is only just to Mr.. Perkins to say, the
report adds that he acted in the mat
ter in entire good faith, that he de-
rived no benefit from the transaction,
and that his liability, if any, is q
technical one. The committee recon-
mends that the law department of the
company institute appropriate legal
proceedings to carry into effect the
findings and conclusions of this re-
port.
The report is signed by 7. p. Fow-
lei, Norman b. Ream, Hiram Steele,
Augustus G. Payne and Clarence H.
MacKay, and was unanimously
adopted.

Favored Presidents Order

The necessity of enacting the presi-
dents order No. 10 into law as pro-
vided for in the bill was explained
by Mr.. Gardiner. This order was in
tended to work automatically and to
make age the only proof of disability.

saved the government and benefit eX-
tended to the veterans. The amend
ment he regarded as virtual Service
