Hanged MAN
HAD INSURANCE
Company Refused to Pay $4,000 Pol
Iicy.-Suit Was
Brought.

Washington, Dec. 21.-Does the eXecu-
tion of murderer free life insurance
companies from paying the insurance
carried on his life?
That question was before the SUI.
preme court of the United States to.
day for an answer as an outcome OF
the execution of Jasper s. McCue
mayor of Charlottesville, Va, for the
murder of his wife in 1904.
The case was up for argument as a
preliminary to decision by the court
A decision is not expected for several
weeks. William H. White, of Rich
mond, Va, and William H. White, Jr.,
OF Norfolk, Va, have been in the city
several days to argue for the North
western Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany that the $4,000 insurance on
McCue's life should not be paid to Nc
Cues four orphans. H. W. Welsh and
D. Harmon, of Charlottesville, Va, are
here to fight for the heirs.
"The needs of the dependent
children the attorney argued in a
brief for the children, "are no less
because their father is hanged, but
such a tragedy, by diminishing their
advantages. and opportunities in life,
greatly enhance their needs and con-
dition of dependence, and when the
insurance policy does not stipulate for
the commission of crime it should re-
quire something more than mere
technical reasoning to read into the
contract an exception which neither
party actually had in mind"
Answering the argument that the
payment would tend to encourage
suicide, the attorneys declared that
one seeking death for such a pul-
pose would adopt a more certain
method.

GAEkWAR MAKES
AMPLE APOLOGY
Indian Potentate Who Showed Dis
courtesy to King and Queen
Reproved.

Delhi Dec. 21.-An aftermath OF the
great durbar that mas caused much
comment is the publication of an
apology from the gaekwar OF Baroda
for a discourtesy shown to King
George and Queen Mary. The Indian
potentate not only appeared in casual
dress while the other rulers were in
when his turn came to do homage to
the emperor he gave a single perfume
tory bow and then turned his back
to their majesties with a significant
smile This behavior would inevit-
ably have the worst influence in re-
gard to British supremacy is the pop
ular view if it were allowed to pass.
Accordingly the viceroy of India
brought pressure to bear on the gaek-
war to make immediate amends. In
his apology the Indian prince ascribes
his discourtesy to his nervous confu-
sion and asures the viceroy of his loy-
atty to the king-emperor. The openly
expressed hostility of the gaekwar of
Baroda to British rule in India has
been a matter of comment for months.
and it is now expected that further
steps will be taken to curb him. The
gaekwar of Baroda is one of the most
influential of Indian princes. He
has travelled in the United States as
well as Europe. Just now the English
courts are trying to decide if they
have jurisdiction over the gaekwar.
who declares that as a sovereign
prince he is not amenable to British
courts. The question came mp when
George w. Statham. a London attor-
rey, sued his wife for divorce, and at
the same time tried to collect 100000
damages from the gaelwar on the
ground that the Indian prince broke
up his family. The gaekwar denies
the charge and says he will pay no
attention to any orders the English
courts may make

ENGLAND FEARS STRIKE.

London, Dec. 21.-A meeting of rep
resentatives of the various labor in
terests in London today may have
grave results in strike that will af-
feet many industries. Golfers, rail-
way employees and postal carriers are
among the disaffected trades.
1t is considered unlikely, however,
that there will be any serious labor
disturbances until after the holidays.

horrible example of the effects of
unionism and urge the employers Of
labor to stand firm against the unions
