 IN JERSEY CITY

Princeton, N. J., May 12-(UP)- Twelve Princeton university fresh men reported today that they had succeeded in passing out 600 hand bills in Journal Square, Jersey City, advertising the demonstration against Jersey City's Mayor Frank Hague which will be held on the campus here tonight.
 David H. Kennedy, Whittier, Calf, member of the student hitch-hiking party, said Jersey City police at first began confiscating their handbills last night but that on orders of Mayor Hague, whom the circulars denounced as "de- stroyer of freedom" the police re- turned them.
 Kennedy said a crowd surround ed the students and that although some of the people were "menac- ing" the students were not at tackled.
 Liberal leaders, including Oswald Garrison Willard and Norman Thomas, head of the Socialist party, who was elected from Journal Square by police when he tried to speak there April 30, were expected to address the students tonight.

BRANT STRIKES REEF AT KODIAK; RESCUED SAFELY
Gruening, Bell, Caldw ell Not Aboard at Time
 of Accident

The 100-foot Bureau of Fisheries vessel Brant struck Williams reef about 10 miles east of Kodiak har- Dor at 11.05 yesterday morning, was floated two hours later on the high tide and lowed into Kodiak where she is now lying alongside the Navy airplane carried Wright while inspection is being made, ac- cording to word to the Bureau of flee here Alaska Agent L. G. Win gard said his information did not indicate how badly the vessel had been damaged.
 A message to the Associated Press from the Coast Guard stated the bottom had been badly damaged, but later the leak was controlled and the vessel grounded during a heavy sea and that the Wright and the minesweeper Teal were standing by. The Brant had first radioed that she was sinking and the airplane carrier and the minesweeper, which were in the vicinity, rushed to her rescue. No loss of life or injury is reported.
 The vessel left here the evening of July with Commissioner Frank T. Bell, Congressman Willard F, Caldwell of Florida, Dr. Ernest Gruening, Director of the Division of Territories and Island Possess sions in the Interior Department, State Senator John B. McColl of California; Peter Gruening, son of the Director; Mrs. Caldwell, Miss Jean Caldwell, Miss Louise liar wood, Miss Virginia Eaton and Jess Bell brother of the Commissioner, aboard, in addition to the crew, headed by Capt. William Olsen, bound for Cordova. The Commis- sioner, Congressman Caldwell and Dr. Gruening are understood to have left the Brant at Cordova and taken a plane into Bristol Bay. There they were taken aboard the Coast Guard cutter Ingham and were not aboard the Brant when she struck.
 The Ingham is due in Sitka We'd nesday with the three officials. The Brant was supposed to have met the Coast Guard ship there. Dr. Gruening's itinerary called for him to meet Chief Engineer Ike P. Fay Tor of the Alaska Road Commission at Sitka and the men were going to return to Cordova and go into the Interior while the balance of the Bell party continued south.

SAMUEL INSULL
 DIES SUDDENLY,
 PARIS SUBWAY
Former U. 5. Utilities Mag nate Expires as Result
 Heart Attack

PARIS, July 16.-Samuel Insull, 78, former Midwest utilities Car of the United States, died suddenly here today. Officials said he col lapsed from an attack of the heart in subway train.
 Insull was dead when he reached the emergency hopital.
 Insull came here last Monday to visit his wife who is staying at a downtown hotel. His wife, weeping said: q had told him never to take subway because it was bad for his heart"
 InSull, born in London, November II, 1859, became an immigrant Eng fish clerk, went to the United States and built a $4,OOO,OO0,00O utilities empire only to see it collapse when the intricacies of it's vast financial structure got beyond his control in the lean years of 1881 and 1892.
 As an electrical expert, Insull launched power and light projects until network of his stations serv- ed 37 States and parts of Canada. In addition to production of elec- tricity, he controlled gas companies and electrified urban and suburban rail routes.
 As financier, he formed huge investment trusts to insure reten- ton of control of his operating companies against stock raids by business rivals. The affairs of his companies-mercilessly buffeted by the stock market declines of 1929, 1930 and 1931-became hopelessly entangled.
 The largest of these, Middle West Utilities, $3,000,000,000 holdin g concern, went into receivership in April, 1892. Following its failure, Insull Utilities Investments, Inc, and Corporation Securities Com pany, capitalized jointly at nearly half billion dollars, collapsed.
 Insull was indicted in Chicago following the collapse of his great empire, and fled abroad. He was finally placed under arrest in Greece and after weeks of fighting extradition, was taken back to the United States, went on trial; and acquitted.
 Practically the only income h. sull had at the time of his death was three pensions of $6,OOO each voted to him by the directors of a trio of his largest companies. He was 40 when he married Miss Mar garet Bird, an actress who always continued her interest in the the atre. Mrs. InSull returned to the stage several times after their son, Samuel Insull, Jr, had grown to manhood and assumed place in his fathers affairs.
