LIFE INSURANCE
FIRMS HERE NOT
TO AID BIG LOAN
Prudential and Mutual Barred
by Law from Assisting
the Allies.

Neither the Prudential Life Tnsur-
ance Company nor the Mutual Benefit
Life Insurance Company, both of
which are Incorporated under the
laws of New Jersey and have their
home offices In Newark, will partici-
pate in the proposed billion dollar
loan 20 the allies, who are seeking
funds with which to continue the
European struggle. The laws of this
State prohibit concerns not doing
foreign business to deal in foreign
securities.
1t had been generally understood
that Forrest II. Dryden, president OF
the Prudential Company. had been In
vlted By the New York bankers re-
Gently to confer with them relative
to a possible participation in the loan.
President Dryden said today: The
Prudential is forbidden by law to in
vest in the securities of any country
where IL is not doing business, and it
is not operating in any European
country.
Samuel w. Baldwin. treasurer of
the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance
Company, was asked today whether
any effort had been made by the New
York financiers TO induce the officers
of his company to take a part of the
proposed loan. He said:
whether we were asked TO partici-
late in the loan or not we would be
unable to do so, as the laws of New
Jersey forbid us to invest in any for
eign securities unless we are doing q
foreign business. We are not doing a
foreign business and therefore are
prohibited from participating In the
loan."
Asked whether the officers of the
company had been requested to par
ticipate in a loan to the allies, Mr..
Baldwin said that he had not heard
of any such suggestion. but repeated
that it would be Intellectual because
Of the State law relating to loans.
Mr.. Baldwin was also asked
whether there we're Federal laws COW
ering the subject of loans. He re-
Piled that there might be general in
surance laws of national import, but
said that insurance companies were
subject to the laws of the States
where they are Incorporated and are
doing business.

Two of III EnfOn1bed
Miners Are Rescued

LANSFORD, Pa, Sept. 2s.-Two of
the eleven men entombed In cave-in
in one of the mines of the Lehigh Coal
and Navigation Company, near Coal
dale, yesterday, were rescued alive
today. They were brought to the sur
face in good condition. The officials
Of the company have hopes of getting
out alive some Of the other men still
imprisoned.
The tunnel in which the men are be-
lieved to be is well ventilated. None
of the men are believed to have been
caught under the cave-in. There is a
possibility that some may have been
drowned
Gangs of twelve men, working in
relays of four hours, are digging
through the fallen coal and rock in
order to make an opening through
which the men can be rescued.
The accident was caused by sud
den rush Of culm and water from an
abandoned working. -

woundinE of score more.

Quitnlan street, The young man en-
listed from this city last September,
giving the name of his next friend as
Edmund Barany, of 349 South Sixth
street. He was assigned to the bat
tleship Connecticut, as was Vincent
Gage, the Camden man. The extent
of his injuries was not announced
in the official report published by the
navy department yesterday.
Wittek's sister, Rose. said today
that her brother disappeared from
home a year ago last Sunday. He
was shot on the anniversary of his
disappearance from home. With him
went Barany, who was named In
Wittek's enlistment papers as next
friend" No word was received from
their brother for several months, Miss
Wittek said, and then merely a short
note. saying he was in the navy. He
and Barany had been out of work for
some time before going away. Wit
TEX mother has died since his enlist
ment.
The Irvington man was Private

is his mother, Mrs. Emily c.

in this country, and serving his Sec
ond term of enlistment. He Is seri-
ously hurt with a bullet wound in his
right shoulder. Ills nearest relative

The three Jerseymen were hurt
Sunday while acting with patrols
guarding the roads into Cape Haitien
over which provisions We're trans

Saturday and met with no resistance,
but on Sunday sniping became gen.
eral and the Americans retaliated by
completely divesting the neighbor-
hood of Cacos. More than fifty of
them were killed, 1t is believed and
q much larger number wounded.
Reports today from Admiral caper-
ton were more assuring. Shipping is
continuing, but the Cacos or rebels
were reported to be submitting to
disarmament about Cape Haitien.
In the north. a, considerable force was
said to be forming.

BERLIN. Sept 2S (by wireless To
Sayville) e).--According to the Overseas
News Agency Greece has informed
Serbia she will resist the passage Of
foreign troops through Greek terri
tory.
The news agency says Reports
from the Balkans say that the Greek
minister to Serbia called on the Serb
ian prime minister and told him that
Greece had decided to offer deter
mined resistance to the passage of
foreign troops through Greek terri
tory.
Budapest newspapers say that the
Serbian minister at Sofia. Tcholak
Antitch. told Premier Radosalavoff,
of Blgaria, that he would depart on
leave of absence owing to Ill health.
The premier told the Serbian minister
tina leave OF absence had been granted
TO Bulgarian consuls in Macedonia.
"The Athens correspondent of the
Lokal Anzeiger reports that he is
able to confirm the rumor that Pre-
mier Venizelos, of Greece, failed in
the negotiations which he attempted
recently to open with the Rumanian
government. This Is considered as a
definite indication of Rumania's s atti-
tude.
"The correspondent adds that pub

Count Andrassy, former Premier
of Hungary. says in the Tageblatt,
that Rumania must remain neutral
and certainly will do so. If Rumania
should join the entente allies and they
should win Russia would be master
Of the Balkans, which would mean
that Rumania would become a Rus

says the central powers appreciate
the situation in which Rumania is
placed. and do not desire her assist
