EDWARDS POLICIES PAID.
Three Companies Haze Settled
Time Left for THO Others.

w II. L. Edwards. counsel for the widow of
Charles A. Edwards. who met his death under
such mysterious circumstances at New-Haven on
December q. denied last night that any of the
five life insurance companies in which Mr.. Ed
wards had policies had refused to pay them.
Three of the five. he said had already been paid
while the other two had time In which TO
make payment before legal action would be
taken.
A report from New-Haven declared that New
York insurance company had refused to pay on
account of the report of Coroner Mix of New
Haven, which found that Mr.. Edwards had COM
mitted suicide. The policy. 1t said. contained
the usual suicide clause w II. L. Edwards said
this rumor probably started from the fact that he
was in New-Haven last week and arranged with
a local draughtsman to make some drawings of
the Hitler property where Mr.. Edwards died. The
property is in litigation. and Mr.. Edwards said
that the making of the drawings purely pre-
cautonary, as it might at any time be sold and
the buildings RACED or altered.
Mr.. Edwards denied that he had started any
investigation into the death of Charles A
Edwards. He added, however. that he intended
to collect the two remaining life insurance poll
ceS for Mrs. Edwards and this may bring the
case into the courts again if either of the life
insurance companies insist on relying on the
suicide clause and refuse to pay the policies

4 BENEFICENT EMPLOYER.
Story of His Grief Over the Ingratitude of
His Employees.

woman who has allied herself with the
Woman's Trade Union League tells this story
which, she says, gives a good idea of the extent
to which the browbeaten employer is dominated
by his autocratic feminine employees
THE women in a certain large manufacturing
establishment she says were contemplating
a strike, and was chosen to call on the manu-
facturer to see if differences could be adjusted
He greeted me with the most martyred express
sion. and spoke of the girls with tears in his
eyes They are from our own neighborhood
he said. They girls whom I have known
all their lives. Why, this factory is the result
OF my desire to help them, and was placed in
this neighborhood for that very purpose Their
interests Aave been my interests, and I have
always been willing to do great deal for them
To prove that 1 have no sympathy with the
idea that the factory girl is automaton, exist
ing only for the sake of the employer I have
twice yearly given the girls picnics at which my
own daughters actually went and mingled with
them. AT this touching recollection his svu-
pathies were affected that the tears over
flowed and ran down his cheeks. When one of
my daughters died the factory girls sent floral
tribute to lay on her coffin he continued
My girls are very we'll paid he went on
If you wish evidence of this I will let you in
spect for yourself the payroll That is entirely
unnecessary l replied; I do not need any proof
as l have I'm my possession two thousand of the
amount received At this statement he looked
truly pitiable 1t is hardly necessary to state
that there was wide discrepancy between the
hSures on the payroll and those the pay
envelopes. The charges for power were 80 or
90 cents a week for each girl. Authorities esti-
mate mat the cost to the manufacturer is from
10 10 10 cents. In addition to these charges
various fines and other devices had reduced the
wages considerably below the payroll schedule
while the floral Offering for his deceased daugh-
ter had further helped TO tighten the girls
purses.

clared by many experts to be unconstitutional.
and a number of prominent railroad lawyers
have even gone so far openly TO assert that
they hope il will pass in it's present form so
that they will have easy time in knocking
it out in the lower or higher courts. The Presi-
dents advisers, the other hand, believe that
in the main the Hepburn bill will stand on it's
legs anywhere. 1t will probably be
strengthened here or there, but a whole
the friends of the administration think 1t comes
nearer reaching a solution of the problem than
any measure yet presented. The President
realizes that. no matter how shrewdly the bill
is framed matter how many contingencies
are provided for, it IS bound to be interpreted
according 70 the Individual views OF the judges
who are called to pass Judgment on it. Even If
the measure contains only ground Of appeal
to the court-that of alleged confscation of rail-
road property-some judges will construe al
most any decision OF the commission as confs-
catory The human mind cannot frame any
measure that will not be open 20 criticism from
some source, nor any statute that cannot be at
tackled by some authority. The best that the
administration do is to frame the strongest
measure possible, and trust It's future to the
hands of the authorities to whom it comes"
1t may be added that the President is confident
that agreement will be reached long before
the end of the session. In fact it is said he
has intimated that the session is not limited
by days it would be well for the men concerned
to take all the time they need If necessary, he
is willing to remain in Washington all summer
to secure the proper rate law.
The review amendment prepared by Senator
Knox, has 1t is understood. been handed TO che
President, and is still under consideration by
him. Briefly stated, IL aims to give TO any COM
plainant authority TO file petition IN a circuit
court asserting that rate fixed by the COM
mission was. in fact, Illegal. or that order OF
the commission was in reality unlawful. and au-
thoriZes the court TO hear the suit TO decide
whether the commission acted within it's author
fly and whether the constitutional rights Of the
plaintiff had been violated 1t Is said that Sena-
tors ElkinS. Foraker, Crane. kean. Aldrich. Car
mack. Foster and McLaurin Will vote for. an
amendment providing for judicial review Seven
votes is a majority Of the committee. Senators
