A CONTINUING AGREEMENT
Evidence to Connect F. Augustus
Heinze With Copper Pool.

New York, May 3.-After a day OF
almost fruitless delving into the op-
erations OF the Heinze family and as
sociates in United Copper in 1907, the
government at the trial of F. Angus
tus Heinze succeeded in bringing out
some evidence by which it is hoped
to connect the defendant with the al
legged pool in that stock which culmin-
ated in October Of that year with
failure OF the firm of Otto Heinze &
Co. and the panic.
Although Otto Heinze, the defend
ants brother, insisted that F. A.
Heinze had no connection with any
pool or with the operations that were
undertaken to protect it in the mark
ct. the government attorneys got Max
Shultz, his partner, to identify an
agreement given by F. A. Heinze to
the firm of ]. F. Bache & Co. in which
T. A. Heinze undertook to guarantee
any accounts the firm then had or
might have in the future with A.
Schultze or Arthur p Heinze, his
brother.
This agreement was dated Jan. 10,
1906, and the defence got Mr.. Schultze
to say that it had no reference to
United Copper or any transactions in
1907, but Judge Hough admitted it in
evidence, declaring that on its face
it was a continuing agreement. j. F..
Bache & Co. was one of the broker
age houses to whom the checks of the
firm of Otto Heinze & Co. were made
out which Hein7e is alleged to have
overcertifed. These checks were to
pay for United Copper stock which
was sent in response to the call sent
odt on Oct. IA by the firm when 1t
looked to them as if the shorts had
been cornered.

BARRED FROM STATE
Department Finds Irregularities
In United Surety Company.

President Knab and His Son Said
to Have Used the Insurance Com
pany For Their Personal Financial
Ends-lt Appears That the Metro
poIitan Trust Company Received IS
Per Cent For Discounting a Note
For the Knabes Endorsed by the
Company.
'rhe insurance department OF New
York state has forbidden the United
business in the state, owing to an
impairment of the company's capital
and to Irregularities in the conduct
of its business. The department
finds that Ernest j. Knabe n Balti-
more and William Knabe of this city,
VINO until recently controlled the COM
pany, used the company for their per-
sonal ends in financial operations, and
the investigation which brought these
to light also revealed such practices
on the part of some financial institu'
tions that the insurance department
has brought them to the attention OF
the banking department.
In the one specific case affecting a
banking institution made public in
the insurance departments formal
statement, it is set forth that the
Metropolital Trust company got 16
per cent for discounting a note OF the
Knabes. secured by an indemnity
bond given by the Surety company.
The Knabes seem to have been good
payers of these bonuses, for their tes-
timony shows that in something over
year they paid between 100000 and
$4,000 to brokers representing them
in such transactions. the greater part
of the money being turned over to the
financial institutions.
While investigating the Peoples
Mutual Life Insurance association
and league, the insurance department
found that the Knabes had some con-
nection with the Louisville promoter,
John Tevis, who tried to get control
of that concern to reinsure its bust
ness in the Federal Life Insurance
company of Canada, and that through
Tevis the Knabes had become inter-
ested in that Canada company.
What the department there learned
suggested an investigation of the
United Surety company's affairs and
this was undertaken in connection
with he Maryland department. Be-
sides the revelations already noted,
this examination revealed consider
able loans to personal friends of the
Knabes on doubtful collateral.

HAVENS SWORN IN
A Cordial Reception Accorded Him by
the Democrats.

hUC DCUlOC'
James S. Havens of Rochester was
sworn in as member Of the
house Of representatives, succeeding
to the seat filed for so many
years by the late James Breck Per-
kins. The new member was ac-
claimed by the Democrats, but the
Republicans sat silent as the victor
in the recent fight In the 32nd New
York district was inducted into the
Office that George w. Aldridge tried
in vain TO reach.
Representative Sulzer, the senior
Democratic member from New York,
did the honors for the recruit from
Rochester. As soon as the perfume
tory business Of the day had been
transacted Mr.. Sulzer arose in his
place and announced that Repre-
sentative-elect Havens was present
and ready to take the oath of Office.
This brought forth applause from the
Democrats. AS Mr.. Havens and Mr..
Sulzer marched down the aisle to-
wards the bar of the house, where the
rath was administered, the Demo
Gratis again applauded and after Mr.
Havens had subscribed to the oath
there was more applause.
Nearly every Democrat in the house
shook the new members hand at one
time or another in the course Of the
day, and whenever Foss, the newly
elected member from Massachusetts,
and Havens appeared together the
Democrats smiled and asked the Re-
publicans how they liked the two new
Democratic members. The Republi-
cans, however. were keeping their
mouths closed and pretended that
they did not see the point of the joke.

SETTLERS OWE S 100000
Ia Government Can Collect Success In
Reclamation Is Assured

Reclamation Is Assured
Washington, May 3.-The acid test
of the practicability of all the govern
ment reclamation work is at hand.
On April there was due and pay
able into the reclamation fund from
the settlers on the various projects
approximately $1,OOO,OOO for water
rights. If the farmers are able to
meet their payments it evidences that
the government is able to secure a re-
turn on its investment. If the pay.
ments are not made the law is a fail
Vre in one of it's most important pro
visions, and the operations of the
reclamation service would quickly
be brought to an end.
But a careful canvass of the pro
jects on which water rights charges
are due indicates that the settlers as
a rule are able and willing to meet
them.
