Of 5000 by means Of bogus checks, was held
for trial in $500 bail in the Tombs court

chief witness against Mccarthy was Fred

Bank OF New York, who furnished the

Schaad WI arrested with Mccarthy, but
he turned States evidence and was released
when 1t was shown that he had borne a
good reputation previously. but had fallen

friendship with another crook, Frederick
Muntweiler, for whom the Pinkertons are
still searching.
Charles lie Barber, McCarthy's counsel,

however, by Charles M. Foster, cashier for

"THAT MAN HUGHESy"
Insurance Inquiry Was IAN Right Until
He Broke Loose.


Dollar a Line Smith, the Mutual Lies
literary agent, whose services were dis
pensed with after the Armstrong inquiry,
in his insurance paper, the Vi0iLdNt, gives
what purports to be some inside facts about
the Armstrong committee and the life COM
panies. Smith says that before the COM
mittee got down to business-he then being
n Of the Mutual Life -insiders"-the in
formation was impaired to him that the
committee was all right"
1t being part Of my duty" says Smith,
ito protect life insurance interests, l was
pleased to have this assurance. l visited

said, the committee is all right. Don't
worry yourself about that. But this man
Hughes, l don't know about. What the
companies ought to do is 70 send across the
water INT engag him for their side. That
would get him out Of the way
Smith says further that he went to SEQ
John A. Mccall, then president of the New
York Life. Mr.. Mccall, according to Dol
lar a Line, said: This committee will be
all right; in fact, I have taken but little inter-
est in it. I'm not going to fight it in any
way"

asked their opinion as to the work Of the
committee.
Don't bother yourself. in regard to the
committee; that's all right was the word
which Smith says he received. Then the
officers, according to his story, added: The
questions we are TO be asked will all be
written out and sent 10 here the day
before, 20 that we shall know Just what
we are TO be asked and be prepared to

The day after Vice-President Robert A

There being no change in Mr. Hughes's
work the next day, Smith says he called
at the executive offices again and was again
told that everything was all right. Ac-
cording 10 the Mutual's former literary
agent, he replied:

Than was the dust. Permission TO have the

and a watering cart was placed at their
disposal for the work, which was done
to-day.
All went well until afternoon, and then
the sun began to get in its work. IN soon
anything but Q pleasant smell arose from
the street, and the roadbed was az black
as II covered with coal dust. The odor,
and IL was supposed to have been odorlese
oil, was not the only trouble, for the car
riaRes and automobiles sent a shower Of
oilsoaked dirt flying in all directions, over
ing costly gowns and clothes and bespat-
terinR carriages and horses.
Soon the avenue, which has an animated
appearance late in the afternoon, was
practically deserted and the driving was
dome on Che side streets. Much complaint
was heard, but nothing can be lone and now
the cottager must grin and bear IL.
