HE ALSO WAS A COLLECTOR.

gave him bunch, and he wrote back
as follows:
'I am making a collection of ten

PURIFIED LIFE INSURANCE.
Benefits from New Law, Which Re-
mains Substantially Unchanged.

Through the influence of Gov
Hughes, the New York Legislature de-
cided to make no radical changes in
the new insurance law 1t was pointed
out by Gov. Hughes that the New York
law has already accomplished wide
spread reforms, with proportionate
benefits to policyholders, and that it
should be given a thorough trial be-
fore any amendments were seriously
considered 1t is estimated that the
cost of the mismanagemento of the past
did not average more than 20 cents to
each policyholder, while the benefits
to present and future policyholders
will amount to many times more and
be cumulative besides. The speed
craze of the big companies and the ex-
cessive cost of securing new business
was the most extravaganza evil of the
old arrangements. Under the new
regime the cost of new business has
already been greatly reduced, along
with other economies.
The showing made by the Equitable
Life Assurance Society in it's report
for 1906 was strong argument
against meddling with the new law.
In the Equitable alone there was a
saving of over SO, 900, 900 in expenses,
besides an increase in the income
from the Society's assets amounting
to as much more. The ratios of the
Equitable's total expenses to it's total
income was 1929 in 1904, 1882 in
1905, and only 14.48%o In 1906. The
dividends paid to Equitable policy
holders in 1906 amounted to 81 ,289 ,734.
which was an increase of more than
go over 1905.
While the Equitable made better
rI, L 1t
all reported radical economies and un-
| der such conditions the Legislature
wisely decided to leave the law sub
| Stantially as it stands.

turned verdict of guilty on two of
the five counts of the indictment
against G. HI. Kester, William Dryer

The defendants were acquitted on
counts one, two and five and found
guilty on counts three and four.

Indictment and count four as the
Guy l.. Wilson Indictment" Corey
and Wilson, acting with the defend
ants, each filed on quarter sections OF
timber land in 1904, for which they
received approxim ately SIS an acre
The prosecution regards the verdict
as signal victory which paves the
way for the prosecution of similar
cases which will be tried at the fall
term of the Federal court.
Kettenbach is president and Kester
cashier of the Lewiston National bank

Simpkins Named in Indictment.

Boise, Idaho.-It is the intention of
the state to introduce evidence in
support of the Orchard story and en-
deavor to further link the defendant
with the conspiracy to murder Steu-
nenberg as outlined by Orchard in his
confession. So far the evidence has
been corroborative of Orchards story
of his many crimes in major and mi
nor details. The direct connection of
Haywood has yet to come out in evil
dence Certain evidence has linked
him with Adams, who, Orchard says,
was his partner in a number Or
crimes. Documentary evidence has
shown Haywood's connection with
Jack Simpkins, but as Simpkins was
member of the executive board Of
the Western Federation of Miners, of
which Haywood is still the secretary
and treasurer, counsel for the defense
claim that the drafts were drawn in
the regular course of the federation
and that the production of drafts from
Haywood to Simpkins has no connec-
ton with conspiracy, being in fact
on the records of the federation.
Simpkins is named in the indict-
ment with Haywood, Meyer and Petit
bone, but he has not been arrested.
One of the drafts in his favor was

Attempts to Substantiate the
R1ood- Curdling Story Told
BY Assassin Orchard
,u.roduces Evidence to Show That a
psojstered Letter Went From
pettibone's Store in Denver
to Harry Orchard in
San Francisco.

Roise. Idaho-The prosecution in
$40 Steunenberg murder trial, on Fri
aav entering in earnest upon the
,,bstantiation and corrobOration of
Horny Orchards testimony, showed a
continuous thread of evidence con-
recting George Petitioners store in
nonver with Orchard at San Fran
disco. engaged on the Bradley murder
nlot partly developed another direct
line by which it is hoped to show that
HAYWOOD engaged and paid Steve
Adams for the same desperate work,
and added several touches of con-
6rmation to Orchards general story.
Officials of the United States post
Offices at San Francisco and Denver
produced = original records showing
that in August, 1904, registered let
ter was sent under the name of 81.
Wolff" from the address of Petit
bones store in Denver to 81. Demp-
sey" at the Golden West hotel, in
San Francisco. Orchard swore that
he stayed at the Golden West under
an alias that was either Dempsey"
Or Hogan" that Pettibone used the
aliases of wolff" and pet Bone"
and that under the name of Wolff
Pettibone in the month mentioned
sent him a registered letter contain
ing $500 to pay his expenses while
engaged in the Bradley plot.
Police officials of ogden established
the arrest there in June, 1903, of
Steve Adams and A. II. Williams.
They were sealed up in an eastbound
car loaded with fruit. and when ar
rested for trespass each had a brace
OF revolvers. When released through
the influence of a detective, who was
brother Mason of Adams, they went
straight to the Office of the Western
union and sent a telegram to Hay
wood at Denver.
When the Ogden testimony was in
troouced Steve Adams was brought
ialo court under guard to be identi-
neu. Adams name has run all
through the trial, but this was his
nis' appearance in person. Adams
seemed in a defiant humor and
walked to point directly in front of
me jury and gazed steadily at the
"ilness confronting him.

MEXICO DEEPLY INVOLVED.
Guatemala Said to Have 1000 Well
Drilled Troops on Border

Panama.-It is currently reported all
through Central America that the
Mexican legation retired from Guate-
mala when it was convinced of the
direct participation of high govern
ment officials in Guatemala in Presi-
dent Barilla's assassination
Shortly after the arrival of M. Gam
boa, the Mexican minister, at San Sal
vador, President Cabrera sent his con-
fidential agent to endeavor to make a
secret offensive and defensive treaty
with Salvador, but GambOa'S in
f1uence was decisive in making the
mission unsuccessful.
1t is also reported that Guatemala
has 1000 soldiers we'll drilled and
equipped on the Mexican frontier, and
more than 1000 prisoners in the pen
