 .'Tkat obligation would have con- tinued, however" Dumaine testir fled as the Sabath congressional committees, Investigation of Amos keag finances entered it's final day
 Dumaine also said. under ques- ticning by F, D. Adolph J. Sabath (D) of Illinois, chairman of the congressional committee to investi- gate bondholderS' congratulations that no effort wa- made to secure financial aid from federal govern mental agencies until after the mills closed in September, 1885.
 And 1t yves only at the request of PWA Administrator Harry Hop kins that you went to Washington sthen?" pressed Sabath. "
 "Yes," replied Dumaine. Dumaine ga that Hopkins re- fcrrad him to Jesse Jones, REC di- rector, who after studying the trial balance of Amoskeag, said the com- pany would lave to get rid of the bondholders before funds could be extended. fs
 Though the company showed nc loss and m. t have made small r-ofit during the manufacture oi rayons for five years, the need fol new machinery in 1895 made it ap- pear 'poor wisdom to continue such operations and consequently rayons were dropped, Dumaine said The witness at start of his tes- timony corrected previous state nent. His salary as president and trs asurer of the .Walthaml Watch company, was $25, 900, he said, moi $30, ,OOO or $35,0Oo,1 as he testified yesterday.

KNOX KEEPS HIS
 RENDEZVOUS
Still Insists Savings, In= surance Policies Are Not
 Safe With Roosevelt

Pittsburg, Oct. 2-(UP)-Frank Knox, republican presidential candidate, had rendezvous" with Pennsylvania last night to reiterate his charge that mo life insurance policy is secure, no savings account safe"
 Knox spoke before 5000 persons at Duquesne gardens within a few blocks of the democratic rally, ad- dressed by President Roosevelt.
 T have a sort of rendezvous with Pennsylvania, and I am keeping it, |" Knox said in opening his address. "A few weeks ago spoke in Allen town. In the course of my address I made & general summary of the policies of this administration, with reference to their manifold conse- quences to trade, to agriculture, to finance, and to industry. And in a general reference to these policies I said that, because of tn, present practices of the administration, no life insurance policy is secure. no savings account is safe.
 "ThiS statement did not refer in any way to the condition of insur- ance companies or of banks. No body questions their abality to meet their obligations"
 He charged that democrats had distorted the statement, but con- tended that issue remained the same.
 T returned to Pennsylvania to raise it- (the issue) once more. My text tonight is trustworthinesS in office" he shouted as the assembly cheered.
 Knox charged that the democrat ic administration brought the na- tion to the brink of imitation by pursuing a spending and borrowing program which, he said, results in dangerous and explosive conditions in banking" He said that the deficit financing of the government "has steadily reduced the earning power of savings and investments

 Reinforcements were sent to strengthen the loyalist lines north west of the Maqueda- Madrid road in the belief that the nationalistS (rebels) intend to drive for Naval camera, IS miles southwest ot Madrid. ft
 Fighting for the present was in the Gredos Mountains, where the rebels reported they had <, captured Mt. Mijaras, 25 miles north of Tal- avera De La Reina and 62 miles southwest of. Madrid. "
 The rebels also claimed. capture of the outer defenses of Siguenza, ST miles northeast, of the capital, on their way to Guadalajara and Ma drid. e... i. On the Toledo, front proper, a United, Press Correspondent and Colonel Stephen o. Fuqua, military attache of the American embassy at Madrid, found all quiet while the rebels organized for their ey- pected advances on Aranjuez and Madrid.

COMPENSATION
 CLAIM UP HERE
O'DonneH Hearing Will Take Place Before Com.
 James M. Lynch

-aEa ,t . <. l.E-
 The compensation claim of the family of John F. O'Donnell, local bus driver who was fatally injured in the Cheshire road bus crash Sept. IT, against the. Connecticut Co, his employers. will be heard before Commissioner James M. Lynch in this city, rather than before the compensation commissioner for the New Haven district, Charles Klein CT, it appeared today.
 Commissioner Kleiner has juris- diction in the claim, since the ac- cident happened in the town of Cheshire, which is in the New Ha- ven district, but it is reported that both parties will agree to a trans fer to. Waterbury, and a hearing be- fore Commissioner Lynch. The holding of the hearing in this city would be more convenient both for the family and the Connecticut Co.
 ODonnell's family has already filed its claim against the company. Lawyers agree that the farnily's only recourse is to the compenSa- tion court, since O'Donnell was fa- tally injured in the course of his employment.
 Meantime, it was reported today, adjusters for the Aetna Insurance co. of Hartford, are endeavoring to reach settlements with a number of those injured in the crash and with fla ncfof fac If th0cQr pyf10 Inst their lives. Three passengers were killed, while ODonnell and a fifth man were fatally injured. Fourteen oth- CTS were hurt, several of them be- ing still in St. Mary,s hospital
 The insurance company is said to have offered the Waterbury Trust CO, administratar of the estate of Miss Ingeborg Anderson, one of Eie victims, settlement of from $6,500 to $7,5eO. Acceptance of the settle ment is subject to the approval os Probate Judge Dennis J. Slavin. settlements with several of those injured in the bush crash are url- derstood to have already been ef- fected,
 Any settlements made in the cases of Miss Elizabeth Norton and Mrs. Doris Galor are subject to the approval of the Cheshire pro bate court. Any settlement 1n the case of Charles Bruesche, of New Haven, who died several days after the accident, must be approved by the probate court at New Haven.
