THE MILLION SPENT
WAS UNSUITABLE
so SAYS MAX COHEN IN REFER
ENCE TO MONEY OF INSURANCE
COMPANY PAID OUT BY ANDY
HAMILTON.

Washington May 19.-"I am willing to
go on record that even the one million
dollars, which was spent by President
Mccall, under the auspices of Andy
Hamilton, was justifable And l further
say it has not only saved millions of dol
lars to the policyholders of that company,
but millions of dollars to the policyhold-
ers of other companies"
The house committee on judiciary lis
tened to this statement today. 1t was
made by Max Cohen publisher of an in
surance paper in this city.
The committee was considering the
Ames Insurance bill for the regulation of
insurance in the District of Columbia.
Mr.. Cohen made the further assertion
that the entire amount of the alleged
graft which the Armstrong committee
discovered, was not 1.-THE of the tax
levied upon polcyholders by the states.
He justified the means which had been
employed by the officers of companies to
prevent state legislatio of the hold up
character. Officers of companies had
taxed its policyholders for funds to pre-
vent legislation to an extent not greater
than from % to 40 cents an individual. but
said while exactions by states had
amounted to all the way from IS to $50
per policyhoder Pennsylvania at one
time he said, had a law in force which
exacted 10 per cent of the benefit of a
policy. Ohio now has law which takes
per cent of this benefit. There were a
hundred other little items in the way of
fees and penalties through which the
state obtains the money of the policy
holder, he continued. Then he said there
was a tendency on the part of the state
legislators generally to hold up the
insurance companies when they endeav
ored to block such legislation. Mr.. Cohen
made vigorous protest against the en-
actment of insurance legislation on the
basis that the managers of insurance
business of the country are dishonest. 1t
was a sad reflection to send out, especial
ly to foreign countries.

CAUSES DisQUlET.
Mexico Threatens to Seize Fishing
Boats on Gulf.

Washington. May 19-.Advices received
here to the effect that the three fishing
companies operating from headquarters
at Pensacola, Mobile and Galveston are
fitting out other schooners to fish In the
gulf waters, have caused some disquiet
in view of the announced intention of the
Mexican government to seize every for
eign vessel taking fish in Mexican waters.
1t appears that the Mexican government
asserts that for many years American
poachers have been operating within the
three mile limit. and after repeated warn
Ing 1t has now determined to stop the
practice. AS the United States has no
treaty with Mexico granting our citizens
right to fish within the territorial wa
tiers of Mexico, there is no ground for
protest on the part of the state depart
ment in case of seizures, once the fact
is established that the vessels We're ac-
tually within the marine league of shore.
The department is making an inquiry
now to. determine this fact in the case
of the three vessels recently seized off
the coast of Yucatan. and meanwhile it
is hoped that no fresh issues will be
made.

BANK STATEMENT

Deposits Increase $12,27e,5cc, Which Is
100000 Less Than Increase In
Loans and Of Cash for

GOLD IMPORTS ARE HEAVY

New York, May 19.--The Flnancier says:
Last weeks official statement of the
New York associated banks was a much
more favorable exhibit than was gener-
ally expected from the result of opera
lions of the sub-treasury, as indicated by
an important gain by this office of cash
from the banks. This gain, which was
about s15,OOo0oo, however, reflected the
repayment by gold-importing banks of
advances that had been made to these in
situations from Europe. the receipts of
the metal aggregatng a little more than
the above sum, having been turned over
to the treasury on It's arrival. thus re-
leasing to the banks the securities which
they had pledged for the above noted ad-
vance. The net cash loss on the inter-
bank and other movement was estimated
from the reports made by these institu-
tions and also from traceable changes at
S235. 400. The bank statement however,
showed a gain of 1903, 800; considering the
magnitude of the weeks extraordinary
treasury operations as above. this dis
crepancy being the estimated and the
actual changes as disclosed by the re-
turn is not surprising. Deposits increased
sl2,276 800. which was 100000 less than
the sum Of the increase In loans and of
cash, consequently the statement did not
prove. The required reserve against gem
eral deposits Increased $1,000, 1885, deduct
ing from which the gain in cash left
81, 325 as the decrease in surplus re-
serve to s1O129.275. Computed upon the
basis of deposits less those of $27. 400
public funds, which 1t may be observed
were reduced 80, 100 during the week,
the surplus is S16,96l, 625. Loans increased
$15,071 600, probably refleeting syndicate
and other borrowings. The daily average
of bank clearings during the week was
1921 100000 against $324,OOO O00 the previous
week.

Debate on Tobacco Resolution

one of the features of the afternoon
was the debate on the so-called tobacco
resolution which was drawn as the re-
suit of petitions from Missouri and Ten
nessee conferences. The resolution was
adopted i'm a half-hearted way but not
until some speeches had been made in
favor of freedom of conscience" The
resolution called attention to the evil in
fuences of tobacco with special reference
to the cigarette and went so far as to
forbid the use of tobacco In any form by
young" pastors.
DIR. Paul Whitehead of Virginia opened
the discussion by opposing the resolution.
This thing proposes to usurp the rights
of the individual conscience" he said. II
never did use tobacco in any FORM al
though | was raised in a tobacco coun-
try, but ! am opposed TO this legislation
about tobacco. Why not leave grown men
to act as their conscences bid them?
A lot of women should not be allowed to
dictate to, us In this matter. l hope we
will never have any anti-tobacco legis-
lation by this conference"
w. b. Henry of ST. Louis said: II want
to show the fallacy of DIR. Whitehead's
reasoning. The personal liberty argument
is the very one used by the gambler, the
drunkard and every other form of sinner
We are against sin in any form and we
should not be afraid to put ourselves on
record"
f. p. Culver of Birmingham said in
part: 'sTf this resolution is a good thing
why should we ignore the laymen? Why
do you pick out the young pastor? Why
is II more of a sin for one to use tobacco
than my brother layman?"
e. B. Chappell of Nashville, chairman
of the temperance committee closed the
debate. II feel little self-eondemned in
this thing he said. 81 did smoke
good many years ago and therefore act
on experience. We of the committee
thought this was very mild action. We
are striking primarily at the cigarette
