Everting1 Poet' U ot the opinion that th dea'tft of John A. McCan, late president of the New Tork Life Insurance Company, waa hastened by the insurance acandala, and has tte following- to say of hlg rather notable career: "Rising from poverty and obaotirity to the presidency of one of the moat powwful corporation Ih the world, he was proud both of the aklll which hud won such success and of the great life InKuranco company wnleh owed so much to his brilliant management. His resort to legislative corruption to com pass ends which he regarded as deslr iihlo was not so much an expression of his personal character as of the school of finance and politics In which he was bred. Born and brpught up In Albany, familiar with the corridors and lobbies of the capltol. a clerk In the Insurance Department, he naturally rome to look upon the bribery of a legislature or the purchase of a political machine n the only direct, efficient and legitimate means of promoting good laws and kill ing bad. Probably he never considered the activities of Andrew Hamilton in their wider relations. Convinced that he had done nothing wrong, and that Hie administration of the New York Life bad been above reproach, he renlly hail no fear of the Investigation. At first lie was surprised, then prostrated I by the wrath of the public. lie had j re-illy fi lt that his dabbling In legisla tion In the supposed Interest of policy. I ho l.lcrs was fo be commended rather jthan condemned. When he fully real ilzcil Hi" eixtent to which his reputation had liei n -smirched, he made large sac- rlileo of his personal fortune In order m ii iuihiirHc the company for the ad j vanc.m to Hamilton. In doing this he . . showed far higher sense of pergonal honor than either James W. Alexander, James I lawn Hyde, or Richard A. Me. ' Curd) 411 fatal error was not that he i i-lii-d for his own pockeit, but that he 1 i-.i. nlli eil principle for the aggrandize, u.ent of his company," , i It Is Htated that among the last i things he said before the uncnrwlotis- i,(ss pr. i i-ilhig death overtook him was that he did not believe that Judge I In mil i mi had done anything to bring his name Into reproach. If what The Post says or hla career be true, it has In. -n considered necessary to bribe New York legislators for many years, ami therefore the action of McCall and Hamilton were not at all unusual. This of course does not Justify their man ner of lobbying, but It is something In Mi Call's favor that he was working for his company and not In the Interest of his own pocket. He gave up a large part of his Individual property to re imburse his company for money ad- , vanr ed to Hamilton. Taken , at Its irM. McCall's course is not near so j ,1H BOme other of the; insurance of- f,.aiH who have lost nothing more j than their reputation and in some I cases even that did not amount to much, McCall, It might be said, lost both his property and his life. liUo Ihe waters of the Niagara, the The following Is from The ' Chicago w(" fls ran on trover.

The shoes did not fit ana were re turned and exchanged. The second pair did not fit and they were taken buck, but that time. Stewart claims, lie was ordered out of the store by Rosenhaum. The negro sued the merchant for the 85 cents. The collmiuy that took place between the Juki ice of the peace anil Rosenbaum w as somet lilnir fierce. The tontrue of j Rotten ha um ran at a high late of speed, and his words were pitched in a hlRh key. 'Squire Hiilon could hardly get In a word edgewise.
