Policyholders File .an Amended Bill Against Equitable Life. 2 | an amended complaint to a bill filed last April suit has been begun in the United States circuit court’ for the Southern New York district to throw { the entire $421,000,000 of the assets of o | the Equitable Life Assurance society into the hands of receivers, who shall “take possession of all the funds, as- sets and property held by the defend- ant society of every character and de- -scription and administer the same as they may be directed by the court.” More than forty policyholders in the Equitable, representing a dozen differ- ent states, are included as complain- ants in the present suit, which is based Isov:iety has no funds with which to | meet its enormous losses and is in- | solvent. { Since the filing of that bill permis- sion was obtained to file an amended i complaint. Since the original bill was filed forty-four other policyholders { have intervened in the suit. In the amended bill, which is far more sweeping in its charges and in its appeal for relief than was the orig- inal bill of last April, there are incor- porated many citations from the Frick and Hendricks reports, published some months ago.

Ashland, Wis., July 29.—TFwo suits | by Bad River Chippewas, indirectly in- volving over $500,000, were begun dur- | ing the day in the state courts at Ash- i land and stipulated to the federal court at Madison, the loser to carry the case to the supreme court. The { ment holds in trust at Ashland over $500,000, which will amount to $600,000 by the time these test cases are de- cided. The Indians demand this sum at once, whereas the policy has been to pay them at the discretion of the | agent. - % BOYCOTT CONTINUES. Chinese Fight on American Goods As- suming Strength. Shanghai, July 29.—The boycott of American goods as the result of the demand in China for the repeal of the Chinese exclusion act is continuing and is assuming strength on every side.

It is the French view that their rights follow from the agreement of July 8, whereas Germany does not wish to define the extent of French police and financial reforms. The indecisive status of the negotiations has caused renewed ap- prehension on the bourse and the newspapers have renewed their sharp criticisms of Germany’s course. MEETING CLOSES IN DISORDER. Intense Excitement at Session of Zion- ist Congress. Basle, Switzerland, July 29.—The Zionist congress held a. lively session over the special order of the day for the establishment of a Zionist colony in East Africa. Messrs. Warburg and Greeborg reported the technical de- tails of the results of the expedition for the examination of the land offered for colonization by the British govern- ment. ~“Mr. Greehorg: proposed a vote of thauks to the British government. Israel Zangwill urged the acceptancge of the British government’s proposi-- tion provided the uithealihy tract on the plateau of Guasso Ngischu (com- prising 2,000 square m_i_l_g ) be replaced or exténded to a more favorable loca- tion. Sir Francis Montefiers warmly contended for Palestine as a more proper site for colonization. : Owing to the interest aroused in the | colonization question over a hundred orators have requested to be heard. The organization committee sought to { restrict the debate to four orators. Dr. Syrkin of Paris offered a resolu- tion providing for an unlimited debate, | Which was defeated by a large major- i ity. Thereupon a small group began a noisy demonstration, compelling President Nordau to close the session amidst a scene of general agitation. TWENTY-THREE KILLED. |, Disastrous Collision on English Elec- 2 tric Railroad. Liverpool, July 29.—An electric ex- press train on the Lancashire and Yorkshire railroad, bound from Liver- pool to Southport, collided with an empty stationary train at the Hall Road station, causing the death of many others. The collision lifted the first car of the express completely off the steel frame- and crashed it down again on the unfortunate passengers, twenty of whom were killed outright. Almost immediately after the crash the wreckage burst into flames. The mangled bodies’of the dead and the cries of the injured, vainly beseeching that they bhe extricated from the burn- ing wreckage, formed a terrible scene ‘and many women fainted on the plat- | form. . i Freight Train on the Northern Pacific Wrecked in Montana. | Helena, 1ont., July 29.—Four men jwere killed at might by the Wrecking I;ui an ecasthound freight train on the | Northern Pacific between Myers and .‘* I:Jig Horn, about seventy miles east of Billings. The washing out of an iron bridge over a small stream caused the engine and four cars to plenge into the stream. The dead are James Wilson, engi- neer, Forsythe; Edward Lucifer, fire- man, F he; two unknown tramps. John Campbell, brakeman, of For- | sythe and one unknown tramp were injured. Sweden Negotiating Loan. Stockbolm, Sweden, July 29—In. pur- suance of the autho fion of parlia- ment the government has concluded an arrangement with the Swedish Na- tional bank and a syndicate of foreign banks represented by the Commercial : bank of Steckholm for a loan of $25,- 000,000. The whole is to be placed at the government’s disposal within a year from ‘Aug. 1. % ; twenty-three persons and the injury of’
