Bishop Henry Treasurer Grimes, of Kans 600 That F aSp Recetved &8,- d Beea Collected Under 1 Session Law. Topeka, Kan., Feb. 3.—Webb Me- Nall, state superintendent of insur- &nce, turned into the state treasury Over $5,000 this morning. It is money collected under the new law taxing the gross earnings in Kansas of insur- ance companies, passed by the special Session, and Mr. Grimes, the treasurer, receipted therefor. This, while it is not final and euts no fig in the liti- gation pending in tt eourts, is a slight recognition of the v lidity of the special session by Mr. Grimes, who has joined with Auditor Cole in hold- ing up the acts of that session. The superintendent of insurance turns into the treasury money received by him monthly. He says he is receiv- ing daily 00 to $500 from insurance Companies to pay the tax fixed by the Rew law. While the companies op- posed the passage of the law, they pay the tax with little or no protest, and have taken no step to fight it. Super- intendent MeNall says this money will continue to co $ Rntil all the cor 1 have r Ported. t the revenue othe state from this source will be 1,000 a year. some wee Heesti Regular Soidters in Splenc a Health Chicago, Feb. 3.—Ac -ording to re- Ports received from Washington at division army headquarters here to- day, thehealth of the United States Soldiers serving in foreign countries Was never bette The e was but one th in Js among the thou- Sands of reg ving inthe West les and nes.
