Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, June 24.--Another big
bunch of witnesses came before the re.
trenchment and reform COMMITTEE
when it resumed it's KNOXVILLE ba.

evidence why second bank should be
granted a charter in that town. Bank
Commissioner George Messenger re-
fused a n,Ynber Of persons in Unionville
and vicinity a charter to start a bank
under the law giving him this author
1ty passed by the last legislature.
After hearing evidence and argu-
ments for two days, the committee or
retrenchment and reform affirmed by
tie vote the decision of State Bank
ing Commissioner George H. Messenger
in the first case appealed under the
new law passed by the last session OF
the legislature.
The appeal was brought by merchants
ard business men of. Unionville, Iowa,
who had been denied a charter by Mr.
Messenger. The town Is equipped
with one bank, the Unionville Savings
Bank, which opposed the establishment
Of the proposed new institution. It's
capital has recently been increased
from $4,000 to $4,000, and its depos-
it's total little more than 100000 Bank

Members Of the retrenchment and

by several members to taking any ad-
6itional testimony yesterday but 1t was
finally agreed that only new testimony

leads in INSURANCE
to Garry Life Policies of
$4,5OO,OOO, With Pierre DUPONT
Coming Next-John D. RockefeI-
Ter Listed as Under $4,000.

New York, July 22-The most
heavily insured man in the United
States is Rodman Wanamaker, of
New York and Philadelphia, accord
ing to figures supplied by the Specta-
tor Company, 135 William street, and
the Insurance Press 80 Maiden Lane,
reliable trade publications. Mr..
Wanamaker's policies aggregate S4,-
100000
Pierre dupont, of Delaware Pow
der Trust fame, follows, with a $4,-
900, 900 policy. Next is John Wanna
maker, Sr., with policies aggregating
$3,00O,00O.
Other policies are held by ]. Pier
pont Morgan. s2.50O,O0O; Percy
Rockefeller, $2.O0O,OOO; Henry Fran
els dupont, $1,25Q,OO0; Julius Rosen
wald, S2,0OO,0oO. and Harry T.
Dunn, $1,SOO,O00.
There are approximately II other
policy-holders in the United States
whose life protection securities reach
and range above the $1,000,000
mark.
The figures supplied, it is stated,
are subject to revision by addition
of special war policies taken out by
insurers who had business abroad, or
whose affairs demanded extra policy
protection. Thus it is regarded as
probable that most of those quoted
as policyholders of I$1,000.O00 or
over Increased their insurance dur
ing the war.
Policies of about $500,000 are
quite common in the insurance world
and not deemed worthy OF special
comment. There is scarcely a sue
cessful business man who does not
carry upward of 100000 protection.
The list of heavy insurers, how
ever, gives some strange contrasts in
the matter of individual insurance
