During the night she picked up numerous wireless calls from the Glasgow to the flagship, and the fact that these calls were not answered tends further to confirm the belief that the fire and explosion sent the Good Hope to the bottom with all her crew.

An effort is being made in various
parts of Wisconsin to defeat the con-
stitutional amendments to the state
constitution in regards. to state in
surance.
At a closed meeting of insurance
men held in, milwaukee, last week it
was decided to place watchers at
several precincts to: induce" voters to
vote against the proposed amend
ments.
Newspaper men were excluded
from the meeting which. was held in
the rooms of the board of underwrit-
ers in the Mitchell building in MIL
waukee.
The call for the meeting. sent out
last Saturday signed by. several in
surance agents points to the reason
for this move on the part of the in
surance companies. It began by ask
ing the question: -. T..
do you want to be driven out of
the insurance business : A circular
has also been prepared for distribu-
ton where 1T will do the most good,
giving the. text of the two proposed
amendments to the state constitution
and appending six, reasons why they
should be- voted down. .~. :.
1t sets forth that there has been
no demand for such: state insurance,
that it would bring the state into the
field of private business, that it will
mean more state commissions, that
insurance is speculative and large
city conflagration as in San Francis
co, Chicago or Baltimore WOULD put
the state to the bad, that the private
insurance companies pay big sums in
taxes, and finally that state insurance

such literature will be sent to. voters.

c+ato Fngineer and candidate for re-
election on the Tammany ticket, made
a renIv today to the charges OF Dis
trict Attorney Whitman in regard TO
Contract 73 on the Champlain Canal.
In the course of his speech in Buffalo
Saturday night the Republican candi-
date for Governor showed how the
state practically had lost S4OO,OOO be,
cause n contractor had been allowed
10 get out when the easiest part OF MS
work had been done.
"The contract in question was can
celled on December q, 1911 SAID MT
Bensel, latter having been carefully
examined and passed upon by corps
If expert engineers, all of whom rec
commended the elimination OF the IN
completed work.
"Mr Whitman's statement that the
loss to the state was large IS erroneous.
Had this contract been carried out as
called for in the plans then existing the
ultimate loss 70 the state by damages
and 70 commerce would have been be-
vond estimating, as 1t would have
necessitated the closing of the Cham
plain Canal.
