GIVING BR|BE.
Says There Was No House of
Mirth" Was Honest In Pay
ing Out 100000.

NEW YORK, April Charges SINH
lar 10 those recently made against the
directors OF the New York Life lnsur-
ance company by Andrew Hamilton
were made here against the trustees OF
the Mutual Life Insurance company
by Andrew C. Fields. The former leg
~islative agent of the Mutual is now Ill
seclusion at his home at Dobbs Ferry.
He is said to be seriously i'll and has
denied himself to all callers.
The charges against the Mutual trus-
tees were made in a formal statement
which Field issued through his physi-
clan, DIR. c. IL. Judson. In his state
ment he declares that the Mutual
trustees well knew the nature of his
duties while he was employed by the
company as legislative agent and also
had charge of its supply department
and says that he has come home pre-
pared TO tell the truth, no matter who
it hurts. be his position high or low
He denies that he ever gave a bride
10 any one, declares the story of the so
called House of Mirth" at Albany to he
a malicious libel and claims that while
acting for the Mutual he saved the
company many hundreds of thousands
Of dollars. He says that the records of
the Mutual's supply department which
had beer reported as missing are with
in easy reach ana that they will be
forthcoming whenever the trustees
want them.
He promises TO make full and com
plete explanation of the manner in
which the S600,O0 or more which was
paid to him by the expenditure com
mittee was disbursed and to show that
every payment was fully authorized.
MI. Fields says that in all his career at
Albany lie never had any personal
dealings with Andrew Hamilton, long
the legislative agent for the New YORK
Life Insurance company.
The statement in which Mr.. Fields
savagely arraigns the officers of the
Mutual with whom ne had dealings
says in part:
I'm the first place, l. never gave a
bribe to any II in the whole course
of my career. | have come home pre-
pared to vindicate myself completely.
In doing so / shall let the truth, which
! shall speak, fall upon whom it may.
All of those trustees of the Mutual who
are now pointing the finger of scorn at
me were aware of all | was doing il
connection with legislative work for
the Mutual. and when they say that
they were ignorant of the character OF
my work they are saying what is un.
true. l am here to challenge them III
every such statement they may make
or have made"

OF
STATE GROW.
Increasing Cost of Living, Loss
Of Railroad Passes and New
Department Blamed.

TRENTON, Apr. THE growth
of the state, the increased cost of liv-
ing and the fact that the railroad
companies have cut off free trans
%portation to public officials, as well
as to private individuals in general,
are among the reasons for an increase
of about half Il million dollars in the
state appropriation bills for this year.
Last year the appropriations aggre-
gated $5,377, 259:7S, whereas this
year the total will be nearer the six
million dollar mark.
The regular appropriation bill and
the supplemental appropriation bill
will be presented to the legislature
next week and will be passed previous
TO the final adjournment, which is
likely to be reached about Thursday.
Governor Stokes, from the day of
his Inauguration, has been making a
plea for economy to the heads of the
state departments and the members
of the legislature, but the latter de-
clare it is impossible to get along
without materially increasing the
mount to be expended for the run
ming of the commonwealth.
During the past two or three weeks
the joint appropriations committee
has had several meetings and has
granted hearings TO the state officials
the heads of departments and the rep
resentatives of the various state insti-
buttons.
Where Ii Is Going.
The appropriation bills have not
yet been completed, but enough is
known to give some idea of where the
extra half a million dollars is to go.
The Railway reformatory is to be al
lowed 100000 for an additional
, wing and other improvements; $780,
900 will be given for the enlargement
of the state house: $4,000 will be
given for an armory for the cavalry
troop at Red Bank, and a like amount
for the building of a new wing to the
soldiers home at Vineland: $2S, 900
will be allowed for the enlargement
of the Jamesburg reform school for
boys: $4,000 is to be expended for
ilt tlctllOH VI Il htN HOuSc lOI luC
principal keeper and the resident
physician of the state prison; $275,-
600 will be allowed for the building
of a new normal school in North Jer-
Sey.
There is also to be a supplemental
appropriation of 100000 for stone
roads, in addition to the $250,000
regular appropriation. The extra
money is needed to bring the road de-
partment up to date in its eXpendi-
| lures, Road Commissioner Hutchin-
son having declared against the meth
cd which has been in vogue of spend
ing money for road purposes before
it was available from the state. The
enactment of the bill providing for
county boards of tax equalization will
also make necessary an appropriation
of from $4,000 to 500, 600.
In providing for the needs of the
various institutions of the state, the
committee has had to take into o II
s%ideration the increased cost of living
and the increased expense accounts of
the boards of managers and the eX-
ecutive heads of the institutions by
reason of the cutting off of railroad
| passes.

STATE POLITICS
Against Their Methods

-
The. Jackson newspapers and the
metropolitan correspondents are
doing their best, as the campaign
comes on, to down Vardaman. They
never miss an opportunity to lay
some sort of dirty political scheme
at his feet when they cannot help
know they are disappearing his
acts and views and then at the same
time misleading the people who sup
port them, the patrons. This kind OF
petty politics is of the lowest charac-
ter-disrespectful. If they have a
fight to make on ~Vardaman they
should get out in the open and not
conduct an underhand campaign OF
insinuations, casting aspersions upon
Vardaman's political character at
every turn of tn ecorner. The Daily
Progress is not special friend of
Governor Vardaman, but does stand
for fair play, and not the dirty, con-
temptible methods pursued by the
clique of politicians who, through the
newspapers, seek to break down a
man who is doing his duty as chief
executive of the State Vardaman
may have his faults. This we do not
deny, but at the same time he should
not be confronted daily with lot
of false charges, amounting to polit-
cal MISUNDERSTANDING Progress.

company, and what follows is pub
lished merely as a suggestion and
not as a criticism of the workings
and management of the street car
service.
A few weeks ago the company
changed its schedule and put three
cars on Washington avenue and
cut off the Theobold street line. This
leaves this track In non-use, and left
only two cars on the Nelson-Broad-
way line. In our opinion the put
ting on the three cars on Washing
ton avenue was a good move, but 1T
sighted the Nelson Broadway line
by leaving it with only two cars,
making connections between the lines
very slow and long between. Any
one transferring from the Washing
ton avenue line to the Nelson-Broad
way line is compelled to wait as
long as fifteen minutes most of the
time, before he or she can get a
car going either way.
We learn that the company is 60
ing TO tear up the track on Theoaoii
to use in extending the Washington
avenue tracks to a colored park i'll
that section of the suburbs. We be-
lieve that this intended move is
discriminating against the best SER
the people of the city as a whole.
We believe that the best plan is to
use the abandoned Theobold tracks
in building loop at the Nelson
or Belle Aire streets, thence down
Pcp,ar street, and put on one OF
mere GERS on this line. This would
make quicker connections between
transferring points, and make the line
more serviceable to the people of the
entire city. If the company can pro-
htably put iii an extension to col
ored park which will not be used only
on isolated occasions, it can surely
extend and make the Nelson and
Hunt street loop and add more roll
ing stock, that would be an every day
benefit to more people, white and
black, than would the proposed ex-
tension that will benefit only the col
ored citizens on stated occasions.
The Times would like very much
to hear from the management of the
street car line on this subject. In con-
clusion, we want it understood that
we do not mean to dictate what plan
shall be followed, but merely offer the
above as suggestions.
