N. Y. SENATE
REFUSES TO
GUST KELSEY
GOVERNOR HUGHES REQUEST
is REFUSED
State Superintendent of Insurance,
Charged with Neglect and In
efficiency, Permitted to
Retain Position


ALBANY, N. Y, Feb 26-Without a
word of comment or debate on the
merits of the question the senate today
for the second time refused to concur
in the renewed recommendation of
Governor Hughes that Otto Kelsey be
removed, on the ground of incompe-
tency from the office of state super
intendent of insurance. The vote was
Yeas, 10; nays, 80; absent or noI vot-
ing, 2.
The vote last year was "a to 27.
In q message which he sent 10 the
senate recently asking vote sanction
ing the removal of Superintendent Kel-
sey Governor Hughes stated that the
superintendent had neglected to bring
the insurance department out os the
condition of an inefficiency which an
executive committee in 1906 had shown
prevailed there.
Subagents who had failed under pre-
vious superintendents to perform their
duties in the public interest, as the
governor claimed, had been permitted
to retain their places and there had
been no reorganization of the depart
ment such as, in the governors judg-
ment, was demanded to place it upon a
basis of efficiency such as was neces-
sary to restore confidence in the in
surance companies doing business in
this state
In short, the governor held, Super
intendent Kelsey did not measure up
to the standard required of the head
of so important department of the
state.
With his message Governor Hughes
transmitted to the senate the report Of
Matthew c. Fleming. who had been ap-
pointed to examine Superintendent
Kelsey and to look into the workings
of the insurance department Mr.
Fleming's findings were strongly con-
demnatory of Mr.. Kelsey's adminis-

OFFICER ENDS LIFE
Commander of Cruiser Askold Prefers
Death to Trial by Courtmartial.
I Leaves Note Defending
His Conduct @

By Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 26.-News
has been received from Vladivostok OF
the suicide of Capt. Gliezen, command
er of the Russian cruiser Askold. VINO
was about to face trial by court
martial on the charge of not having
acted with energy in suppressing a
naval mutiny at Vladivostok the last
of October, 1907.
It appears that Capt. Gliezen FACED
an incipient mutiny on board the Ask
old at the same time that the men on
board the torpedo boat destroyer Skory
rebelled.
Instead of dealing sternly with the
ringleaders of the movement capt.
Gliezen negotiated with his crew with
the result that the Askold took no part
in the fighting which followed between
the loyal and the rebellious ships.
Gliezen left a letter declaring that an
attempt to use force on his part would
have precipitated a general mutiny and
that the hoisting of a red flag on the
Askold, the largest vessel in port, would
have added greatly to the prestige OF
the mutineers on every ship at Vladi-
yostOk
