CoL Wal ter Taylor, of Wilmington, promi nent locat agent for Insurance, was the principal speaker, clearly stir ring a decided wntlment against the necessity of any Investigation. He Insisted that be was not opposing an investigation, but merely reciting the conditions and leaving It to the leg! lature a to the existence of the necessity. II Insisted, however, an Investigation would raise the pre sumption In the public mind that there waa something wrong aa to In surance In this state, which is not the fact as be views the situation. He explained the work of the South eastern Tariff association aa schedul ing and equalizing rate for the con venience and economy of all the com panies rather than In any wise a trust. Furthermore, that, the com panies (t represent do less than So per cent, of the business in this stipes, o that it could not bea truat in any way. ui iae insurance coin panic licensed to do business In North Carolina, only 74 are mora' ber of-the Poulheastern Tariff as sociation. He quoted Insurance rate to show that North Carolina now baa the lowest average rate of any southern state, the others run nlng much higher, with Florida at the head with a rate of $21.40. Some of the northern and eaatern states had lower rates because of different construction of houses due to climatic necessities as well as through insurance precaution and to the far greater volume of business. He showed that of the (31.000,000 paid to Insurance , companies In North Csrollna during the past tea years, the com panics taking the risks only received $l,r.io,ouo. or aa average of only 1 1,299 per company, the remainder remaining In the slate In pay to scent, taxes, fire losses and other effort"' beneficial to the state.

The municipal a sociatlon of North Carolina, composed of the mayor and official of many cities and town of the state, at last night's session of Its annual niest ing, discussed the. commission fo"m of government, going into the details and many suggestions being offered.

Consider able opposition developed to the Bat tle bill providing a general state law empowering cities to establish a com mission form of gove-nment The result was the appointment of a com mittee with Captain J.

Wheeling, W. Va., Jan. 19.A large crowd of women standing In the corri dor outside the court room, where Mr. Laura Schenk is being tried, was refused admittance by trial Judge Jor dan yesterday morning. 'The evidence In this case Is tend ing to corrupt the morals of the wo men who have been in constant attend ance," the. Judge said, just before the poon recess. "They go home and dis cuss the case, and that is not right." The big audiences at every session have largely been composed of women and girls.. Many, unable to get inside in the morning, would patiently stand in line la the hallway, munching ap ples and sandwiches. A man in the crowd packed against the stairway, on the main floor fainted yesterday when a photographer set off a flashlight The state's three medical experts Dr. J. E. Burns.- Dr. Gregory Acker man, and Dr. J. T. Thornton took up almost the whole morning session. Prosecutor Handlan propounded the hypothetical question to each. All agreed the theoretical illness, embrac ing Scbenk's symptoms, was the re sult of lead and arsenical poisoning. - Set Drag rer. - From Dr. Ackerman. the defense tried tp elicit an admission that the millionaire packer showed indications of a confirmed arsenic eater, but the physician said he found no such traces. Handlan said yesterday he probably would have all bis evidence In by Thursday afternoon. He said he like ly would reserve the tnh eduction of evidence purporting to show ' where Mrs. Schenk purchased the arsenic un til after the prisoner had taken the stand. A passage occurred between Hand lan and the defendant's attorney's when Attorney O'Brien, of Mrs. 8cbenk'a counsel, asked Prof. J. S. Mallett, one of the state's experts, who had paid for his services. ' Before the prosecutor could object. the witness answered: "Why, Mr. Handlan." Answer Stricken ObL The prosecutor protested vigorous ly and the answer was stricken out. Dr. J. T. Thornton, replying to the hypothetical question, agreed with the other experts as to the preaence ot land and arsenical poisoning. Handlan called George Coleman, a Wheeling druggist, who analyxed wa ter taken from the caae from which Schenk' water had been taken, testi fied he had found no trace of lead or arsenic. . Coleman aaid Attorney O'Brien, of the defense, had requested him to make the analyai directly after Mrs. Schenk' arrest. The bottles were taken from McAlester's drug store, where all the purchase ot Schenk' drinking water were made. Coleman said O'Brien had asked him not to make a written report. Hand lan tried to get O Brlen'a reason be fore the court, but an objection waa sustained. S foBMilracy, Says Haadlaa. "I will knock the prop from under that "family conpl-acy" If It is made an Issue." Handlan said yesterday. I win tore the defense to fall back un. on the berldltary Insanity claim." Attorney J. J. O'Brien; of the de fense, continued the cross-examlua- tlon. Dr. Burn testified that Schenk' symptoms up to October 30 were simi lar to that of a malarial fever natli-m. October 20 was fixed by the witues in response to Prosecutor ILindlan's hypothetical question as tb probable date when Schenk was suffering from iea poisoning. "nil! you saf Schenk Was no: inf. ferlng from malarial feverr O'Brleu asked. "I certainly will." witness replied. fOMMASDEB AXD THBkK MX hi WITH HI BMARIE. Kelt. Gee.
