NO FEDERAL Law w Y FOR FOL
INSURANCE COMPANIES

Washington, Jan. 20.-President
Taft, today, addressing the annual
meeting of the association of life
insurance presidents, held out no
hope for the enactment of federal
law to govern the companies and ad'
vised the executive officers to bend
their efforts to secure uniform leg
islation in the staAes.
"You are here to secure uniform
ity in insurance legislation through:
out the country" said the president.
"You are very sorry that the United
States may not find in the constitu
ton the right to render uniform
the insurance business throughout
this country. Certainly the supreme
court seems to have settled that
question and your only recourse
therefore, is to secure such common
action by the states that the result
will be similar to single federal
act controlling the business.
1.-THE only function that the United
States can perform is to pass g
model law in the District of Colum
bia and there show to the world
what congress, aided possibly by q
scientific commission, shall believe
to be the best kind of an insurance

Whatever l have gained so far has
been without any assistance what
ever. Here are the great states Of
Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Mich

and Washington, all wheat raising

we had from any or these states,
from the farmers themselves? Not
one word-not a single resolution.
Is it because they care nothing, or
are insensible to the injustices Of
the present system of grading and
handling their products? Not at
all. 1t is because they have had no
organization in the past to make
known their wishes. Their repre-
sentatives are fair minded men, and
whenever the farmers themselves
show that they are interested they
will become active in their cause.
But the influence of the other side
is being exerted every moment, and
representing enormous wealth, as it
does, and enormous profits to be de-
Tended and protected, it is a power

GIVEN PLACE MADE
VACANT BY De NEU|
Young Graduate of State Uni
versity Appointed by Board
of Public Works

Normand w Mohr was appointed city
architect yesterday by the board Of
works, after the board had accepted the
resignation of Emil de Neuf. who has
served in the Office since Loring P.
Rixford's retirement three months ago.
De Neuf resumes his civil service post
a chief craftsman in the school de-
signing department.
Mohr studied architecture in the
University of California and attended
a number of terms at its branch, the
San Francisco institute of art. He
was for a time in the Office of City
Architect William Moosef. He is a
San Franciscan by birth and has spent
virtually all OF his 80 years here. He
is married and a member of the firm
of Fabre & Mohr whose Offices are in
the Pacific building.
Mohr attracted attention several
months ago by his persistent attempts
before the last board of supervisors
to stay the demolition of the city hall.
He declared the dome TO be one of the
most beautiful in the world and that a
great part of the halls structure should
be saved. On one occasion he clashed
with Mayor Taylor in attempting to
address the session before permission
was received from the chair, and the
mayor ordered the sergeant to restrain
him. Mohr's persistency won him al
last respectful hearing from the
board members, although the halls de-
struction had been publicly determined
upon some months previously. His APP
peal was without result
The board removed Edward McDon-
aid S boiler Inspector and put Harry
Gildea in his place. Both Gildea and
Mcdonald are delegates from the boiler
makers union in the labor council.

The leading architects of San Fran

plans for the big exposition and have
requested hearing before the direct

arranged at which the architectural
aspects will be discussed. 1t is felt
that one of the main considerations
should be the general style and group
ing of the buildings. In this the local
architects will be prepared to assist
The exposition officials are in re-
ceipt of letter from the local chapter
of the American institute of architects,
suggesting the conference and naming
a committee to act. The letter follows

kindly request the privilege of pre-
senting before your committee certain

assistance and cooperation from the
governors of Minnesota, Ohio and North
Carolina. Many states are still to be
heard from, but those governors that
have gone on record have been uni

complete REPUTATION of the charges

the effect that, he had failed to turn

ney Charles NJ. Fickert, some of the
papers and data gathered by him IN
prosecution of the graft cases followed
a detailed Investigation by the grand
jury yesterday afternoon, that body
giving out a statement which cleared
| the former district attorney absolutely.
The charges were repeatedly made
by Fickert following his taking over
the ONCE of district attorney. When
the Calhoun case was called for trial
tlckert asked to have it dismissed, de-
clarlng that he was not in possession
of sufficient evidence upon which to
prosecute the cases further. He fol-
lowed this action by making public dec
laration to the effect that he had not
been given all the data in this and
other graft cases when he took office.
He asked the grand jury to investigate
and Langdon, hearing of this, volune
teered to be a witness.
Langdon took the stand yesterday
afternoon and was questioned by flick
ert for several hours. And the exam
ination brought forth the following
statement from the grand jury:

county OF San Francisco having

SAN BERNARDINO, April 6.-The
American Express company, it became
known here today, in addition to ex-
tending operations to the Union Pacific
railroad, the express business of which
system it took over, April l, will also
operate over the San Pedro, Los An
geles e. Salt Lake route effective Sep
tember l. The principal offices that this
company will open In Southern Cali
fornia are to be at Los Angeles San
Bernardino and San Pedro. With the
express contract on the Salt Lake Is
also included the franchise on the To-
nopah & Tidewater. Offices are to be
maintained at Goldfeld and Las Vegas.
The Wells-F Fargo company is now in
control on the Salt Lake and its sub
sidiary line, the Tonopah & Tide
water.
The Wells-Fargo company, at pres
ent. has the exclusive field, operating
over all three Of the transcontinental
lines running into San Bernardino.
This latest development in the ex-
tension of the American Express COM
pany to the Pacific coast makes it a
rival of the Wells-Fargo in Southern
California. When the change becomes
effective the American company will
operate through cars, for the first time
in the histoary of express business, be-
tween New York and Southern Cali
fornia.
On April the American company
succeeded the Pacific Express company
on the Union Pacific. The entire con-
trol of the latter company is now held
by the Gould interests, and an outlet
to the Pacific coast will be afforded
this concern when the Western Pacific
inaugurates regular passenger service

ROGUES AFTER $4,000
LET DUPE HOLD s10G,000
One Poses as H. H. Rogers, Jr.'
Private Car Used for
Trip to Florida

NEW YORK, April 6.-For lavish
stage setting. workmanlike execution
and ample financing. the story of a
racing swindle as told the police to-
night by Henry Wagner. senior MEM
ber of the firm of billiard table manu-
facturers, has no equal in the annals
of the New York police bureau.
To obtain $4,000, the confidence men
entrusted their dupe with 100000 in
cash, hired a private car from Balti-
more to Jacksonville, Fla. and imper-
sonated successfully a party of mil
lonaires. one of whom was III. H.
Rogers, jr., son of the late president
of the Standard Oil company"
The story came out tonight with the
arrest of a man who gave his name as
John Brown, 6S years old, and de-
scribed himself as a broker and spec
ulator. but who. say the police. is
George c. Rockwell, alias George c..
Hammond, alias Old Joe Eaton, a no.
torious confidence man.
Last month Wagner met a man rep
resenting himself to be Alfred Sanford,
private secretary to Pennsylvania
millionaire, with money to spend on
coal lands. Would Wagner take an
option on 1000 acres at 81 an acre? He
could sell at a huge profit.
The secretary lacked funds to finance
the deal himself. but if it went through
he asked only 25 per cent for his tip.
