fuIther questions, and a stormy scene
ensued Mr., Crane persisted with his
questions until they had been ruled
Out By the chair.
Upon an appeal from the ruling the
chair was sustained by a vote of to 2.
, Mr. Stribling insisted throughout that
his employment was perfectly proper,
and that Senator Bailey had nothing
to do with it.
Young Mr.. Gruet was the first wit
ness placed on the stand this morning.
He gave considerable testimony in re-
gard to the entry of vouchers in the
books Of the Waters Pierce Oil COM
pany. Then his attention was direct
ed to a conversation which he had
with Captain Plateau in St Louis last
spring or summer. He said he had
shown the vouchers to Captain Fla
teau at that time, and that the latter
had written a letter to Senator Bailey
about them. Mr.. Gruet admitted that
while the letter was written upon
Captain Flateau's own motion, it was
submitted to him and his father. and
the two had entertained the hope that
il might induce Senator Bailey TO in
tercede with Mr.. Pierce for the settle
ment of a suit which the senior Gruet
had brought against that gentleman.
! He believed that Captain Plateau
wrote the letter out of friendship for
Senator Baney.
At night the senior Gruet was plac-
ed on the stand, and in response to
questions by Mr.. Odell admitted that
he had told Assistant Attorney Cen
eral LightfOOt that II suit were
brought against the Standard Oil COM
pany in connection witt the one
against the Waters Pierce Oil COM
pany he would have nothing to do
with it. nor would he turn over the
papers in his possession to the repre-
sentatives of the State of Texas. Ask.
ed by Mr.. Crane why he did this, Mr.
Gruet said that he believed that the
Missouri case had been complicated
and delayed by the injection into 1t Of
proceedings against the Standard Oil
company and he did not want that to
happen down here
The closing feature of the proceed
ings tonight was a motion made by
Mr.. Odell that Mr.. Cooke be required
to lay before the committee all the
letters which he had received in
which charges OF any kind were made
against Senator Bailey. Mr.. Odell said
that unless this motion prevailed he
gave notice that tomorrow morning
he would ask for a subpoena duces
tecum to secure the letters. Mr. Crane
protested vigorously. saying that Mr..
Cooke had at all times displayed a
willingness to show these letters to
the committee. but that he did not
want them made public. Mr.. Odell in |
sisted ON his motion. however. and
action thereon was deferred until to-
morrow.

certain papers upon the trial OF the
suit pending at Austin.
He was asked if he had received the
$500 in November. represented by
another voucher, and he replied that
he had. He said that it was for a per
fectly proper employment, coming up
after his connection with the penalty
suit had ceased, and that Senator Bal
ley had no knowledge whatever of the
matter and had no connection with It.
Asked to state the nature of this en-
ployment in detail, Mr. Stribling sig.
nified his willingness to do so. where
upon Mr.. Odell, of Senator Bailey's
counsel, interposed an objection to in
Producing into the case personal trans
actions with which Senator Bailey had
no connection whatever. and he asked
If this policy was TO be pursued where
would the investigation end. There
followed a dispute over the admissible
ity of this testimony, during which Mr..
Stribling made a further statement Of
his position. Mr.. Crane insisted that
the question be answered, and for a
time confusion prevailed. there being
considerable evidence Of feeling on
all sides. Finally Chairman O'Neal
suggested that the committee go into
executive session and hear Mr.. Strib-
ling's testimony on this point OF order
that II might pass upon the admissible
ity of the testimony. II was finally
decided TO send the newspaper men
out At first the proposition was To
exclude every one but members OF the
committee and Mr. Stribling. Against
this Mr.. Crane entered an emphatic
protest. and the order was modified
so as to permit the attorneys to re-
main. After about fifteen minutes the
open session was resumed and it was
announced that the objection had been
sustained. Mr. Crane then asked If
he would De permitted to ask in the
open session the questions he had
asked in the executive session and
have the ruling made there. The
chair replied that he might, whereupon
Mr.. Crane proceeded TO ask a number
of questions. During the examination
Mr.. Suibling accused Mr.. Crane OF
trying TO impugn his motives and seek
ing TO place him in a false attitude.
Mr.. Crane retorted that he was mere

PRESIDENT OF
METROPOLITAN
LIFE INSURANCE
CHARGED WITH PERJURY-rN-
DICrMENTs GREW OFT OF TIES.
rTMoNY HE GAVE BEroRH THE
GRAND JURY IN REGARD TO
LOANS.

New York, Dec. l6.--Charged with
perjury in connection with state
ments to the insurance commission.
John II, Hegeman. president CT the
metropolitan Life Insurance company
appeared for trial today before Jus
tice Bowling in the criminal branch
or the supreme court. District At
torney Jerome is conducting the
prosecution of the indicted insurance
magnate. Hegeman is represented
by John ID. Lindsay. ex-justice of
the supreme court; Morgan T..
o'Brien and John G.. Milburn. the
famous Standard OH lawyer. who
was recently engaged TO assist In the
defense. A special panel OF tales
men has been drawn and Il is
thought certain that the trial will
now proceed without further delay.
President Hegeman has entered a
plea -of not guilty to the three In
dictments brought against him. He
Is man of striking personality and
totally unlike the average tyne OF
New York financier. He wears his
hair long, and this. with his smooth
face and big SLOUGH hat. gives him
the appearance OF the southern col
onel of fiction.
The indictments against Hegeman
grew out OF testimony he gave be-
fore the grand jury relating TO GER
tain collateral loans which had been
made by the Metropolitan Life. There
are three Indictments. but IL he is
acquitted on the first the others will
likely be dismissed The perjury in
dement's are based on reports, al
legged TO be false. made to the state
of Insurance TO cover
ap yenr-ead transactions OF the an
surance company. Seven forgery in
dictments, also relating to year-end
transactions. were brought against
Hegeman but were dismissed by Jus
tiee Bowling on the ground that the
grand jury testimony showed no in
tent TO defraud, even conceding that
the entries were false.
The evidence presented ito the
grand jury set forth that for a num-
Der OF years IL has been the policy
OF the Metropolitan Life Insurance
company 10 transfer certain of it's
assets, consisting OF collateral loans
and syndicate participations. on the
last or the year to Prssidcnt Hege-
man. and a few days after the first
OF the year TO have them transferred
back to the insurance company.
10 is alleged by president Hege-
man that the company gid not suf-
fer through these transactions. but
that It acNally made money on
hon, and that while the reports to
the insurance department may have
been Inaccurate, they were not false.
