AFTER REALTY COMPANIES
Van TuyI Would Supervise Vio-
IatorS of Mortgage Law.
ILLEGAL BANKING STOPPED
Business Conducted by Depart
ment Stores Not Entirely
Satisfactory.

Albany. Dec. S-The status OF many Of
the so-called real estate companies which
make a business of selling securities to
the public has been the subject OF special
investigation by the State Banking De-
partment during the last year, and the
result will be reported to the Legislature
by George C. Van Tuyl, jr., State super
intendent of Banks.
Superintendent Van Tuyl in state
ment to-day concerning the investga-
lions says:
Although the facts developed in New
York City made Il possible to effect some
improvements by warnings sent TO certain
corporations believed TO be violating the
law regulating the business OF mortBase
loan or investment corporations, l expect
10 renew my recommendation or last year
to the Legislature for the necessity OF
placing such real estate corporations
under adequate supervision ana eXamllid-
ton.
The banking law of this state has at
all times, and In my opinion wisely, per,
mitted moneyed corporations organized
under It TO make loans upon real estate
security. The failures of state lnstltu-
tons that occurred during the panic OF
1907, however, demonstrated the fact that
this privilege had been grossly abused
Not only was the aggregate or Ioahs
made by different failed institutions upon
such security unduly large, but the
loans themselves were in many instances
made upon second and even third ana
fourth mortgages. Even at TINS ume INC
work OF liquidating number or these
institutions is greatly impeded, ana IN
some Instances rendered almost hopeless,
through the ownership OF real estate SUD
feet TO prior liens which has been taken
on account OF such loans.
The department also has been making
special inquiry into the affairs of con-
Germs making illegal use OF the words
banks" and Savings" and OF corpora
tons doing an unauthorized banking busl-
ness Concerning this inquiry Superln-
tendent Van Tuyl says: ...,...
This involved an investigation into the
status of certain private bankers whose
Operations had resulted I'm deceiying the
public and also into the operation OF GER
tain large department stores In hrst-
class cities. The Banking Department
has insisted upon the dlscontinuance OF
illegal practices.
The situation with respect to the bust
ness conducted by department stores is
not regarded as altogether satisfactory,
and the matter of strengtheng the law
with reference TO them and other private
bankers 90 az TO bring them under ade-
quate supervision is receiving the atten-
ton OF the authorities OF several states.
During the last year Superintendent
Van Tuyl says the Banking Department
has criticised defective accounting sys-
TENS in certain banks and has recon-
mended changes TO correct the defects
OF which complaint has been made.

MURDERED PARTNER, SAYS JURY
Prosecution Asserted Arebachs Friendship for Victim
Wife, Who Got 100000 Insurance, Was
Motive for the Crime

Baldwin, Mich, Dec. S.--A jury in the
Circuit Court to-day declared o. NJ. Are
bach guilty of first degree murder for the
shooting of his partner. Harry Fisher a
Chicago business man and promoter.
Fisher was killed in the woods near here
last September while the two men were
on hunting trip.
Fishers life was insured for about
10000. the policies being made payable
to his widow. 1t was the theory of the
prosecution that friendship between Are
bach and Mrs. Fisher was the motive for
the murder
Fisher with his wife and children and
Arebach, came here late last summer,
taking up their residence on fruit farm
which Fisher recently had purchased
near Big Star Lake.
on September IL the two men went into
the woods to hunt partridges, taking with
them rife. short time afterward
Arebach rushed to a nearby farmhouse
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1912-12-09

and reported that Fisher had been acct
dentally shot. The dead mans body was
carried to an undertsker's establishment
and according to evidence given at the
trial both Mrs. Fisher and Arebach en-
deavored to have it shipped to Iowa with
out a coroner's inquest The inquest was
held, however and Arebach was held re-
sponsible for the shooting.
According TO Arebach's story. while
passing through the woods he stopped TO
roll cigarette standing the rife against
a stump. The weapon accidentally fell
and was discharged. the bullet passing
through Fishers body.
Evidence at the trial tended TO disprove
this contention. it being shown that the
bullet passed through the body in d.
rection different from that which would
be taken by a missile fired by rifle
lying on the ground. 1t also was demon
strated that the weapon could not be dis
charged in the manner claimed by Are
bach.

To Make Comparison by States.

The investigation has exceeded expecta-
tons. The entire subject matter is d.
yided first into sixteen parts. Each d.
vision Is composed OF number OF topics.
running from three or four for some d.
visions TO ffteen or twenty for others
Many OF the principal topics are divided
into several sub-topics. The material for
the forty-three states having railroad or
public service commissions and OF the
United States is displayed In alphabetical
order by Jurisdictions under the several
topics or sub-topics system OF abbre-
Walton Is employed which eliminates all
unnecessary verbiage but leaves the sec
lions Of the statutes substantially In the
language OF the lawmakers. Each para
graph is followed by a citation referring
the reader to the original source Of the
material. A system OF cross-referencing
is employed, and the entire work is TO be
indexed.
For the consideration OF tho various
parts Of the proposed model bill the de-
partment is organized with a number OF
committees, each OF which Is represented
by its chairman In the executive council
or board OF directors Of the department.
The personal investigation OF municipal
! regulation OF public utilities has developed
much valuable information. Experiments
with this form OF regulation have been
more extensive IN cities on the Pacific
