REPAY FUNDS
New York Life to Get Back the
Money Given for Campaign
Purposes.

NEW YORK, March 10. - 1t has
been settled that the trustees of the
New York Life Insurance company
who were members of the finance com
mlttee during the presidential cam
paigns of 1896, 1900 and 1904 and
were cognizant of the political contri-
buttons made by the New York Life
Will reimburse the company TO the
extent Of S14S,000. This is the total of
The political contributions made by the
company. Each trustee will go into
his W private funds 10 make the pay
ment. In all there are fifteen trustees
involved, and under the agreement
each man will have to contribute a
trit1e less than $4,000.
1t was originally planned to hold
the estate of John A. Mccall RESPONSE
BILE for all of the political cOntribu-
tions and to bring legal actions against
it TO obtain ACCOMPLISHMENTS. Aban-
donment of this plan is involved in the
decision reached at the conference.
Il am so glad that Mr.. Hamilton has
come back and faced the men who
have been so loud in their criticism of
his work for the insurance company
and boastful of what they would do if
he got within their reach. l rather
think they all heartily wish he had
stayed in Europe the rest of his life"
said the wife Of Andrew Hamilton
when interviewed.
Hamilton, it was learned. will be
afforded an opportunity tomorrow in
this city to tell all he knows of insur-
ance corruption when Senator Arm
strong and his committee meet their
counsel. Charles L. Hughes.
Mrs. Hamilton would say nothing as
TO this. but continued:
1T is said that | persuaded my hus-
band TO come back to New York to tell
the truth and all the truth about his
work for the New York Life Insur-
ance company. Well, perhaps did.
At any rate, | am UNNECESSARILY hap
pier since he made that address in the
legislature last Thursday.
And you may be sure of one thing,
too" she added earnestly. MI. Hamil-
ton has not yet told all he has to tell.
lhtt 10 Wv w L lhbNlol "
come, and it is all substantiated by
writing and figures in his possession.
when the proper time comes he
will speak and clear up everything
that seems now SO mysterious. And
when he does he will be absolutely
cleared of these absurd charges of mis-
conduct in handling the legal interests
of the insurance company. l know him
better than any IL else i'll the world,
and | know that he has never done Il
thing that could be questioned"
Judge" Hamilton last night express
ed the opinion that when the bills pro
posed by the Armstrong committee are
reported they should contain Il pro
vision that no trustee legislated out of
office next November, as recommended
by the committee, shall be eligible for
reelection until a full year has elapsed.
The propriety of this is obvious"
said Judge" Hamilton. land l believe
IL demand for it is coming to a head.
Il note that some of these gentlemen
in New York say they do not know me.
1t certainly seems strange that any
man should be in a position to spend
very large sums of the money of which
they are the legal guardians during a
long term of years and yet be totally
unknown to them

Liquor Reform Bill.
The liquor reform measures still
continue a bone of contention in the
senate. The bishops bill'' has moi
yet been reported by the committee,
but some action is expected this week.
The committee will doubtless report
a substitute of its own, in which will
be combined the less drastic of the
clergymen's ideas and the more rea-
sonable ones by the brewers. One
feature that the committee will in
sist upon is that all screens shall be
removed and all curtains drawn on
Sundays. election days and during
the closing hours of other days. The
back rooms of the lower class of sa-
looms will also be prohibited.
The brewers are also making a
fight against the provision of the
bishops bill" which require the land
lord as well as the saloon keeper to
sign applications for license They
claim that this gives too much power
to the landlords. that it would ena-
bic them to acquire a good business
built up by a saloon keeper, by mere
ly refusing to sign their tenants ap-
p~lication for license.
There is no question but that some
kind of excise reform legislation will
be enacted. The people are demand
ing il, and the state leaders are de-
termined that they shall have it. The
defeat of the local option bill does not
mean that no liquor measures are TO
be passed this year.
