Will NOT Be TRIED
Perkins Life Insurance Suits
Are Compromised.
Three Hundred andSeventy- Five
Thousand Dollars Involved.

Leavenworth, Kan, June 5.-The
famous Perkins insurance cases were
compromised in the federal court here
today.
There were eleven companies in
Volved in the suit and 1875, 900 in poll
cies on the life of the late Lucius H
Perkins of Lawrence. The terms of
the compromise were not made public.
Shortly before his death Mr.. Per-
kins applied to many life insurance
companies for Insurance. Gggregating
$1,35O,0O0. OF this amount he Sc
cured upon his life a total of about
$675,000. One of the largest of the
policies was one for 100000, written
by the New York Life Insurance COM
pany, which was paid shortly after Mr..
Perkins death.
Suit was brought to collect the re-
manning $4,000 when the life insur
ance companies refused tc pay the pol
1cies, alleging suicide within a year
as the cause for the refusal to pay.
Mr.. Perkins was killed by a fall
from the roof of his residence at Law
renee. The circumstances surround
ing the death, the insurance companies
claimed, pointed to suicide. and as the
majority of the policies had been is
sued only a few months. theA suicide
clauses in the policies were cited as
grounds for refusal to pay. The suits
were brought by Mrs. Perkins for her
self and her minor children, and by
executors of the Perkins will for the
benefit of the estate

These were the officers elected by
the new board of directors of the To-

at a meeting held this noon.
The association has been entirely re-
organized and the members are now
full of ginger and expect to work for
the good of Topeka. The first meeting
of the association under the new regime
will be held a week from Wednesday
and thereafter on each second and
fourth Wednesday in the month.
The joining fee was reduced from SO
to 50. and the annual dues of the as
ISOLATION from So to 50.
1t is the intention of the organiza-
ton to have a special speaker at each
of the semi-monthly meetings either
some member of the club or an out
slider of reputation.
The members of the club were in
sympathy with the ideas expressed in
a letter received from Gerrit Fort, pas
senger traffic manager for the Union
Pacific Railroad company, urging that
Kansans get busy and put on displays
at the big land shows of the country.
1t is probable that the local organiza-
ton will work in this direction.
