as insurance commissioner, and John HI
Schively, as deputy, collected from a
large number of insurance companies
at least eight, money to cover exami-
nations to be made in the future, which
examinations have never been made
THAT since his election as insur-
ance commissioner, John III. Schively
has collected money to cover exami-
nations to be made hereafter, such sums
being arbitrary and not for the pur-
pose Of applying upon any expense in
connection with future examinations,
but purely as an arbitrary sum.
THAT there are more than $50 in
surance companies doing business in
the state and that the arbitrary fee has
been charged each of them each year
since entry, that there were entered
during the past two years in addition
to the companies whose certificates of
authority were annually renewed 81
companies, which were charged 5000,
and in addition thereto there was en-
tered Is fraternal societies.
Upon information and belief, l
charge that the said Sam H. Nichols
and John H. Schively have collected
and received during the four years pre-
ceding January 10, 1909, in such arbi-
trary demands for the alleged purpose
of paying expenses in making examina-
tiOns of insurance companies a sum
exceeding $4,000 in excess of require
ments.''
Opposition Stronu.
Since the converting of the legisla-
ture there has been an uneasy air about
the state offices, and it has been pre-
sumed by many that an investigation
would be made before the final adjourn
ment. But the opposition has been
well organized and strong. Acting
Governor Hay has been active in urg-
ing a thorough Investigation, and he
has gained the dislike of several influ-
entail persons on account of his ac-
tivity
1t is currently reported that an inves-
tigation will implicate others than
Schively and Nichols, and as a reason
is given the fact Of the active opposi-
ton of practically all the state officers
to any interference with the insurance
department. Whether the resolution
demanding an investigation can be
passed through both houses is still in
doubt. However, the open charges
made against the insurance department
by Senator Paulhamus, outlined above,
have had the effect of forcing the issue
almost to the breaking point.
Paulhamus, tomorrow will call up
his original investigation resolution.
The governor will likely send a special
message to the senate asking it to in
vestigate the insurance commissioners
office. If the senate refuses it is the
present intention of the governor to
call a special session Immediately on
the adjournment of the present one.
1t would be the first legislature to
make an investigation.
