UAL LIFE'S
Suggested by "Danger of o
Democratic House"
THE LEGISLATIVE WORK
-Mr. Thummel Believes that in 1904
the Mutual Paid Out Probably
$15,000 for Influencing Legislation-
-Kept no Account of Disburse
ments New York, Oct. 5. W. F. Thummel,
legal counsel for the Mutual Life In
surance Company of New York, testi
fied before the legislative investigating
committee today that he had received
$2,r.0O from Vice President Robert A.
Granniss in 1904, and had paid it per
sonally to J. W. Babcock, -chairman
of the Republican congressional cam
paign committee.
Mr. Thummel said the contribution
had been suggested by the "danger
of a Democratic House that would
result in tariff and other legislation
Df such character as would upset busi
ness and affect policyholders."
Other companies, Mr. Thummel said,
nad been asked to contribute, but he
did not know whether they did or
hot.
Mr. .Thummel said he knew of no
tiier contributions.
Replying to a direct question, he
said he had never authorized the pay
ment of money of the Mutual Life to
my legislator or other person con
nected with 3T legislature for the iri
luencl.ig of legislation. ,
Mr. Thummel said he paid 1 the
.noney- personally to Mr. Babcock.
"From whom did you get it?" he
was asked.
"From the cashier."
"On-. whose authority?"
"Mr. Granniss'."
"Did you initiate the transaction,
r was Mr. Granniss the one who told
you to do it?" "
"Neither one. They came to us
:ame to me 'and said they would like
:o; see Mr. -Granniss, and I took them
up and introduced them, and after
some talk they went away.";
"What was the ground upon which
the contribution was suggested?"
"Well, the general ground was that
there was great danger of a Demo
cratic house, and that would probably
result in tariff agitation and . other
legislation that would be of such
character as to upset business. That j
tvas the -basis of the argument."
"And it would affect the interests of
the policyholders?"
"It would very much." . - - ... i
"Would it have .anything to do with
federal supervision of insurance com
panies?" No sir., not a. thing."
"Was it stated that any; other insur
ance companies had contributed?"
"The statement was made either that
they had or that application would be
made to them. .But I am not very
clear about that, and whether there
was or not I do not know, and whether
there was any application made I- don't
know, but the general suggestion was
that there was a contribution of that
kind." '
Mr. -Thummel said he was now an
attorney for the Mutual" Life. He re
ceives a salary of $7,200 and looks after
the taxes-and legislation for this com
pany throughout the United States.
Mr. Thummel said he had received
money from the New York Life in the
adjustment of expenses. The last time
was a little over a year ago.
The witness said Mr. McCall vijas
mistaken in his testimony yesterday
that he 'paid money to the witness for
work In endeavoring to secure federal
supervision. Mr. Thummel said he had
a talk with Mr. McCall on that matter
and asked him if his company would
contribute. Mr. McCall said it would,
but witness was paid no money." ,
Mr. Thummel testified that Vice-President
Robert A. Granniss of the Mutual
vas the Mutual' s executive officer, who
ad supervision over the legislative
work. He said he believed that in 1904
GOLD OFFERING
3he Mutual paid out for tis work
probably $lo,0G0. Answering . Mr.
Hughes he said he traveled abjout the
jountry and kept track of legislative
measures affecting it.
When asked just what he did to
Jefeat strike measures, or undesirable
legislation, he said he tried to keep
n touch with the persons interested.
He became acquainted with as many
members of the legislative committees
as "uossible and presented such argu
ments as he could. He kept no account
Df disbursements.
He told of his inability to defeat a
general revenue bill in Nebraska, and
when Mr. Hughes asked? if his argu
ment was not persuasive -enough, he
laid he was not magnetic enough.
"You were dealing with intelligent
men, were you not?" asked Mr. Hughes.
I was dealing with legislators," wit
naaa replied.
w Za rtly. to a question ai to the di-
vision - of legal expenses - among the (
.New York Life Insurance Company,
the Mutual Life Insurance Company
and the Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety, Mr.. Thummel said:
"The Mutual Life has Virginia, North
Carolina, Alabama, Kentucky, Ohio.
Michigan, Minnesota, Washington,
Oregon and Mexico; the Equitable at
tends to Maryland, South Carolina,
Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas.
Colorado, Arkansas, California and Ne
vada; the New York Life had Indiana,
Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Kansas, Mis
sissippi, Tennessee and Oklahoma. The
rest of the territory is open.

The Hungarian Situation

fhA WiinB-arian diet reopens, but the
king's decision regarding the parlia-
mentary crisis is still unknown, even
if he-has reached one. The recent ex

vague uneasiness f which Baron Fejer

out a pronouncement stimulated. Mean
while the coalition .leaders wth voice

sion of suffrage, and they are encour
aged In this by the unexpected support
of Count Tisza, the Liberal leader,
whose journalistic attack on manhood
suffrage has, however, displeased his
own followers.
Francis Kossuth has written an ar
ticle in which he declares that a party
never existed which, in the interest of
peace, has , reduced Us demands to
such a minimum' a has the inde

Parjs, Oct. 5. Dr. Jeremiah Zimmer-

coins remarkable alike for their rarity
and beauty. Dr. , Zimmerman laments
the loss of a number of Roman bronze
coins which were covered with the
most beautiful green pacina. He spent
two .years in making the collection,
which he intended to use in illustrat-
Jng. historic numismatic lectures. An
Australian named Hayes has been ar
rested for the robbery. Several days
prior 'to the loss of the collection
Hayes sought to impose his acquaint
ance on Dr. Zimmerman, but the lat
ter, , who is naturally reserved,
de-
; iv-i
icllned his advances. A damaging fact
i against Hayes is found in his possession
iof a peculiar pair cf eye-glasses such
as Dr. Zimmerman wears.
Re gayg he boUght the glasses from
& peddler on the street. There was
I lKn.tnnriA th his mattress a bae
, ' " -
of stolen scarabs. The thief threw a.
number of bronze coins down a drain.
Hayes declares that he knows noth

abs must have been placed under his
mattress while, he was in a drunken
sleep. He also says that his watch,
which was found in Dr7- Zimmerman's
room, was placed there by the thief
to ' throw suspicion on him.

Captain Jones produced the bill of sale
as evidence of the transfer Collector

Cure for Tuberculosis
Paris, Oct. 5. Professor Behring, who
discovered the serum treatment- for
diphtheria, and one of the famous Paa-
Pro
teur Institute experts, announces that
he intends to proclaim next August a
method of curing tuberculosis which he
has discovered. He says that the
method 'involves neither the use of
serum or vaccination, and that it is
also a perventlve of the disease. He
will hold the secret some time, as he
did in the case of his diphtheria cure.
He will' explain the method to Doctors
Roux and Mentchikoff and leave the
application of it to medicaly practition
ers without revealing the nature of the
remedy, , because he thinks ,he has a
right to reserve temporarily the profits
of the discovery to enable him to pros
ecute other researches. Professor Bea
ring added: "From today onward vic
tims of tuberculosis may hope again."
Prof. Behring promises to make a?
preliminary announcement at Satur
day s session df the tuberculosis con
vention. It is inferred that he will not
be particularly illuminating. '
Several physicians state that they
attribute the most serious importance
to Prof. Behring's - statement in the
Matin, owing to His reputation, i It is
understood that Prof. Behring has thus
far only experimented with cattle.

City. The new appointee at that place
is said to have been a Democrat a fsw
years since.
There are a number oi other post
office cases from North Carolina pend- f
Jng at the postoffice department, but
j the postmaster general did not nppa-
rently- take these up. The fight over
the High Point office has been hanging
fire for some time, and the cojitestover
the Fayettevllle office is nearly' a year
old. State Chairman Rollins has not
made his recommendation In the High
Point contest, and will not do so until
after the president's return from his
southern trip. At that time, Mr. Rol
lins expects to' visit Washington and
dispose of a number of patronage matters.-
;
An appeal will be made tomorrow at
the department of justice for D. L.
Arey, the wealthy Salisbury distiller,
who was fined , $22,000 and sentenced to
three months' imprisonment. An ap
plication for prdon is what Arey's at
torneys have In mind, but they r?.alize
that they, cannot accomplish anything
at the White House unless the depart
ment, of Justice consents to V make . a
favorable report on the request, " Such
action is hardly possible for the reason
that both Judge Boyd and District At
torney Holton have filed their , protest
here against a remission of any part
of the fine and sentence. Arey's coun
sel are going to exhaust every remedy
in behalf of their client.
, Representative Hull of Iowa thinks
that legislation looking to an increase
in .revenues may be avoided at the
coming session of congress. : -
"If the revenues'of the government,"
said the Iowan today, "continue to in
crease In the next few months as the3r
i have In the last three, I do not think
it will be necessary towards raising
more motley. While It us possible that
the end of the year I may show a com-
j paratiyery small deficit, that is not ob-
jectlonable after all. ' My experience
has taught me that when there is a
full treasury, with an annual surplus,
the appropriations of congress, are 'in '
excess of what they ought to be. Every
manin congress thinks it is his duty to
get a portion Of the money for his own
district, and he does all in his power
to that end.
" "When receipts and expendituresre
running anyway near even, extiva-'
gance is prevented, as the comm'teeg
and leaders of the house have good
grounds for holding down the impro
priations.. There is no question that
greate reconomy could be practiced in
congress, and that it will be practiced
unless the means are furnished for an
other surplus in the strong box of the
government. The proper thing to do
is to cut down expenses In the future
and do nothing toward Increasing the
revenue."
