MAXIM OUT of MUTUAL.
kni GIFTED InCentOr RetireS from
Board of Trustees.

Sir Hiram 5. Maxim has resigned from the
Mutual Life's board Of trustees and his resgna-
ton has been accepted. So far could be
learned, pressure of other business the only
reason which Sir Hiram vOuChsafed for his
tion. No announcement was made of the resig-
nation at the Mutual Life Building. and it was
only after the reporter had made inquiries
among individual trustees 10 the two vacan-
cies, which Herman Ridder and Charles Emory
Smith were nominated Wednesday to nil. that
the news filtered out 1t learned also that
the refusal to serve of Ralph Peters. the presi-
dent of the Long Island Railroad who was nom
mated a Mutual Life trustee AT the last monthly
meeting. was the cause of the second vacancy.
Sir Hirams resignation came a complete
surprise to many insurance men last night. He
was one or the new men nominated on the "ad-
minlstration ticket" year ago, and throughout
the hard fought international administration
campaign Sir Hiram regarded as the ad-
lnlhlstratlon tickets heavy ordnance among
european. and especially among British, policy
hoIders of the Mutual Life. Sir Hiram who is
a member of the London firm Of Vickers Sons &
Maxim, and invented the automatic system Of
nrefrms. polled the relatively heavy vote Of
laHSf5 according 10 the election inspectors GER
uIlcate Issued three months ago thus running
iess than three hundred votes behind the lea
administration candidate With many English
Pocyhoders. 1t is said. the fact of the engineers
