Frederick l.. Scott Saved Standard
 Oil by Stopping Runaway Horse.

Frederick l.. Scott, 13 Hill street, stopped runaway of one of the Standard Oil Co.'S teams this morning on North square. The driver was de- livering oil in a neighboring store and the horses made sudden plunge forward and were making for Cherry street when MT Scott ran after them and seizing the lines stopped them. He has written to John D. Rockefel- Ter at the company's famous offices, 26 Broadway, New York, informing him of the service he rendered the company in stopping the horses and unquestionably saving the company q lot of oil, but his object in writing was merely to see what answer he shall get more than with any expecta- ton of receiving any reward. So long as he does not get a Carnegie medal he will consider himself all right.

Continued from first page

one from his department as result OF
the legislative investigation, although
he intended eventually to dispense
with the services of First Deputy Su-
perlntendent Robert Hunter of Pough-
keepsie and Chief Examiner Isaac
yanderpoel of Albany when the work
of the department was In such shape
as to make It,. in his judgment, prac-
tlcable to spare them. Mr.. Vanderpoel
resigned few weeks ago, but II APP
peared that aside from his resignation
and those of three minor employees
the personnel of the department is pre-
clsely the same as when Mr.. Kelsey
assumed Office last May.
Mr.. Kelsey admitted that he had new
err examined the roster OF his depart
ment IN the light of revelations before
the Armstrong committee as to the af-
fillatlons Of certain employees with Of
ficals Of insurance companies who
were involved In the insurance eX-
posures
Superintendent Kelsey admitted that
not until two days before the election
of directors In the mutual companies
last December did he appoint the in
spectors who were 30 have charge OF
the election and that he finally left 10

for the purpose the details OF n IN
under which the votes were TO be re.
ceived and canvassed. lie had pre-
pared no plan OF his own. he said.
In the course OF his answers 10 the
governors questions Mr.. Kelsey declar'
ed that while he realized that Messrs
Hunter and Nanderpoel were discred
tied by the insurance investigation. he
intended 10 dispense with their services
In due time when conditions permitted
but without the humiliation OF sum
mary dismissal. or Mr.. Vanderpoel In
particular he said that his many years
experience and minute technical knowl
edge made his services for the time be
Ing indispensable, and he believed that
while both OF these officials had been
derelict, the changed condition under
the new Insurance laws made Il posi-
BILE for him to regard them as trust
worthy sources OF information.
At the close OF the examination Gov
ernor Hughes told Mr. Kelsey that h
would be pleased to receive any add
tional statement OF facts which woull
show his Idea Of and attitude towart
the work and needs OF the department
or his action upon the various wclghty
matters upon which the Insurance In
vcstlgatIon had thrown light The gov
ernor said he did not want an argu
ment. emerely desired TO get at th'
| facts In the matter.
Later Governor Hughes said that h
could not tell definitely whether th'
matter would be ready 10 submit q
the senate today. lie wanted 10 give
the superintendent OF insurance oppor
tunlty TO present any answer he de
sired. aud whether the recommenda
