THE' CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1879. 3 —~—— w 4 THE INSURANCE GOMPANIES, « Intense Excilement Testerday Among thz A; " Kolder. How the Boston Confagratio @l Poicy n Affected the Various (ompanies. Despatches from fhe Home Offices to the Chicsgo Agents, The most interested portion of the commmnity was tho iuwurance porion. Thern was intense excitement among t1b agents until they beard the effect of the fire apou the companics they cepresented, and then there was joy in the Losoms of some, and clouds of darknexe on tho ‘brows of others. Helders of policiex rushed into the offices with theirpapers in their hande, and inquiries on their lips as to theirsvalne, Wien they wore discovered to he worthlcess, or ap- proaching worthlesenans, they wero caucelled, and policies taken in the more fortunate compa- nies.

Thoy had colisted in the campaign, and should strike | hands and proceed fogether for another year. | A ballot was bad for the eloction of the Board | of Directors, which resulted in the re-election of the old Board, with the oxception of the names omitted by Mr. Dexter, aud the addition of four more.

Mr. Wirt Dexter offered the following resolu- tion: Resalged, That the Finnnce Committes shall ba charged with the general munugement and direction of the funds of this Sociely, and that all checks or drafts upon the Society’s funds shall thereafter e drawu by the Treasureron some one by him duly authorized, and countersigned by the President of the Society or Chairman of the Executive Committee, The resolution was adopted.

How He Has Fulfilled His Trust' as Railroad and Warehouse Comi»is- sioner. A Reply to Charges Iusinuated Against Him by Mr, R, P. Morgan, Jr. p SerinarTzLD, 1L, Nov. 8, 1872, To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune: On the 20th of October, six days only before the election, tho Infer-Ocean. contained & com- munication of corsiderable length, by Mr. R. . Morgan, Jr., ono of the Railroad and Warehouse Commissioners, which was intended, by inuen- does and insinuations, to asperse my character for integrity as an oflicer, being myself one of ihe Board, and Cheirman thereof. I was at the time actively engaged in canvassing the southern part of the State as candidate for Governor; and, even if T had seen the article in question, would not bave had leisure to refute it in time. Some days after tho article of Mr. Morgan was pub~ lished, T heard of it in & general way; but, be- fore I cculd have procured the number of the TInter-Ocean containing it, and ' could have re- plied to it, the election, on which it was intended to operate, would have been gone by. 1t is presumable that the author of the com- munication foresaw the imposeibility of my be- ing ablo to answer Lim in time; and, in that respect, he has eesimilated himself to'that class of unscrupulous partisans who are in the habit of resorting to such tricks just on the eve of an election. The general contempt of tho pub~ lic, even by that part of it which gains an ad- vanlage by such manceuvres, is usually the reward of such & proceeding, There are many points in Alr. Morgan's com- munication on which I might take issus, but I i have no timo to waste, and will confine myself toa few of the most salient calumnies, which, though not openly made, are clearly insinuated. Mr. Morgen says: “ Governor Koerner Las rever counselled with Alr. Spencer or Captain Rovell, or otherwiso at any timo given any pro- fessional counscl, or his presence, to aid Iu & speedy and successful prosccution of that suit” (the quo-warranto case in McLean County). Now, tho Commissioners are Executive offi- cers. ‘Womay, toa very limited estent, under the law, initisto procecdings against Railroad | Compsnies and ‘archouscmen; but certainly it would very ill become me, or any other meni- ber,to act as counsel in all the various cases which may arige under tho law. It might a8 well be argued that, because the Govornor has to see that the laws are faithfully executed, it becomes his duty to attend to ell the lawsuits in which the Stute is a purty. It would have been assum- ing & very grest responsibility on my part to have acted as counsel for the State, and entire- 1y uncalled for, as the State, by law, is repro- sented by the Stute's Attorney and the Attorney General. Besides, considering the task, no law- ver whose practico bas ever extended beyond a Justic’es Court would ever take the office of Rail- road and Warehouse Commissioners, if subject to the condition that he should give his personal attendence aud his professional assistance to all casios arising under the varions laws concerning railroads and warchouses. The fee in ono single important case, if he were allowed to charge one, would be probably more than one single year's 'selary. charge I dismiss, then, a8 one which is 50 puerile zsnot to deserve any further consideration. No one, bhowever, Lknows better than Mr. Morgan how often I have been called upon, in thio Board and outside of it, to give my viows in regard to the proper construction of the lews. In corresponding with Railroad Companies, with the EuEnnor officers of the Inspection and Regis- trar’s Department, and in giving instructions to State officers, it became, In very many cases, necossary to ascertain tho true meaning of tho luw, and to convey our construction of it to our correspondents in clear and concise language. 1 claim that I bave performed my duty in all these things. I bave, moreover, whenever it was deemed necessary, made suggestions as to the law and the modé of proceeding to the At- torney General, aud to State's Attoroeys, as my very lotter to Mr. Rowell, published by Mr. Morgau, shows. The substantial charge, however, in Mr. Mor- gan's insidious communication is this: thatI preferred to test tho case of unjust discrimina- tion by railroads in an action of debt for $1,000 penalty, which the statuto gives to tho person aggricved for every instance of such diccrimina~ tion, rather than in a proceeding against a rail- roud for forfeiture of its charter. The reason is stated in my letter to Mr. Rowell, which Mr. Morgan makes the groundwork of his insipid assault.- My language, in that letter, is as fol- lows: “Although, in principle, the decision of & question ought not to depend upon tho form of ‘action, yet we all know—that is, we lawyers— that Courts are far more reluctant to pronounce a forfeituro of a charter than they would be to inflict 2 fine upon 2 Company. The Commis- sioners desire to present the case now made under the most favorable aspect, 30 a3 1o secure, if pos- stble, a favorable decision.” Iu tho same letter, I “&i’: ** 1t is not contemplated to dismies the infor- mation, but I would desire to press the other ac- tion first, and delay decision on the information. Our objert is, as before stated, 20 get the cases be- Jore the Courts, so thal the possible consequences of a decision may nol deler the Courl from mek- ng one TNFAVOLABLE lo the ruad.” Now, if everybody was a Jawyer, I wonld stop here, because then everybudy would sey that for tho best inierest of the State. No muxim is older and more universally ob- gerved by Courts, than that “ Forfeitures are odious in_law, and that Courls will nol favor fhem.” It is also a familiar principle, In all cases of quo warranto for forfeiture of charters or for ouster of office, that Courts will look at the consequences; and thoy have often refused to give even leave to filo an information, al- though a clear prima facie case was presented for declaring ai oftice vacant or o charter for- feited, where the consequences might bo disas- trous to the public. No one, but an ignorant man or s provaricating lawyer, could draw, from what I said about the practice of Courts in such cases, the inferenco | that I meant any disrespect to the Conrts_in my letter to Mr. Rowell. \When tho principle is Tairly and squarely presented, Courts will de- cide 1t the same way, whether presented in one torm or the other; but, when a forfeiturs is aaked, Courts will sustain tecLnical and formal objections to the very form of the actions, and, avoiding o decieion on the merite, rule cages out of Court on mere technical grounds. If I am correctly informed in the very case now pending in McLean County against tha Chicago & St. TLouis Railroad Company, & great deal of time Das already been fritterod away by arguing moro formal and technical questions; and the pro- ceeding, commenced a year ago, is etill pending, and no decision has been obtained on the merits yet, even by the Circuit Court. Another chargo s, that the amendments I pro- posed to the former laws—which amendments, or rather substitutes, J‘rovidml, amongst other things, that the State should also lave = penal action, 8o a8 not to be dependent mpon the will of private peraons to commence suits or not; providing, alco, a5 the cheapost and promptest mode of bringing recusant Railroad Companies or warchousemen to torms, for procesding by in- dictment for any and every violation of the Railroad Warehouso acts, would have dismissed the pending case in McLean County, because the eaid substitutes coutained a repealing clause. Now, the bills introduced at my instance in the House were substantial transcripts of the old 1awe, repealing clanso and all, only that, out of five or gix bills, I had framed but two. ‘Che es- sential alterations were but few, and fre- quently stated by me to the Loard. By reference to our report made to the last _s3ssion, it will bo readily seen that tho_charac- ter of those bille was fully understood by the Commissioners. No idea was more foreign to me then to dismies tho cazo then pending, by theproposed bills. The formor praceeding was ot inconsistent with the new proposed law at all, and the repesling clause only referred to laws incopsistent with the proposed one. If, however, Mr. Morgan, When he read the prinied Dill, thought that a saving clause should be put in, why did he not call my attcntion to it, as any honorable man would have done,—particularly one who had pretended to be very friendly to me, and had often expressed to mo the most ex- plicit confidence in my honesty ? Instead of that, without raising the elightest objection to the bill when he saw it Snntud_, or meking any suggestions, he prepared a saving clause as he states it in his communication, and placed 1t, as South Water and LaSalle streets, toking their regular Qinper with him.

Hazard & Caswell’s Cod Liver Oil is the best, he says, in “{frusty hands, should it become necessary to take any action in the matter.” This conduct of a colleague cannot be qualified but by using the strongest and most_expressive terms of reproach which the English language possesseg. It is such o _betrayal of every duty no gentleman owes to snother with whom, by virtue of his office, ho has been thrown into confidential relations, that perhaps no room can be found adequately to designateit. It was a very foolish attempt, but, nevertheless, a mali- cious one, to sécretly mafte points, which might be used or not, as occasion seemed to require. The most astonishin thing, however, is, that a man who hes actod as ho himself sags ho hag, dares Lo avow such action, aud apparsntly secks to claim credit for it. Those bills were mere p ropositions. In regard to them, we say, in our re[[worl of last year: *The' Cheirman has also prepared bills to remedy what we considered defects in the laws, heretofore more Eanicululy referred to, also to be submitted. They are aware that they have agsumed 8 task the delicacy and difficulty of which only those who have ever undertaken the framing of laws on important and complicated subjects can adequately appreciate. Buf, care- Jully considered and revised as those bills will be by- the Legislature, and passed into one law, or more if need be, it is hoped to secure & more certain guide to the officars who are charged with their execution, and a more _intelligible rule of action to those who are specially to obey them.” I will merely add that I explained the bill— briefly indeed, but clearly enough, I thought— to the Chairman of the House aud some mem- bers of the Committes on Railronds, who, at my instance, called for that purpose at the office of the Commissioners. Auy charge, direct or indirectly, to the effect thatI have favored Railroad Companies in my course as Commis- eioner, I pronounco as absolutely false. You published an articlo from the Chicago Railroad Gazelle, not long ago, in which that railroad organ advised all persons intorest- ed in railronds and the commerce of the country, to vote against me for Governor, because, 88 it alleged, I had shown, in my course as Commissioner, that I desired to drive Ttailroad Companies to the toall. Ihave no doubt—in fact, I positively know— that that advice was very extensively followed. In the face of all that, and witha full knowledge to tho contrary, a few days before the election Mr, Morgan seoks, by intendment, innuendoes, and indigcretion, to estublish 88 a fact that I was derelict in my-duty asan officer. He, of cowrse, supposed that my opponent would carry the day against me, and thought it more prolltable to worship the rising sun, whoso will may retsin Uim i, or remove him, from the oflice he now holds. Iam quite certain that, if the chances had been in my favor, Mr. Morgan would have eaved himself the trouble to rush into print without the least provocation, aund the shame, X may ndd, to favor the Iufer-Ocean with such & communication.

Interesting Account of a Settlement of Civilized Montezuma Indians Near the Diamond Range of New Nexico and Arizona. From the Saucelto (Cal.) Herald, Not far eastward of the sources of the Littla Colorado, on the great trail from Fort Mobave, on the Colorado, to Albuguerque, on the Rio Grande, and over & duy's journey from thie northern extremity of the great diamond range now attracting attention, there are mins of Aztac settlemonts, aud three yillagos inhabited by Indinos. They are called the Zuni Villages. Each contain Krolmbly 4,000 people. An intelli- gent officer, who has Leen among them, thus de- scribes them : They are 2 race differing essentinlly from the Indian tribes sround them. The Nevajos are their neighbors on the morthwest, the Apaches south. Their Phsiognomy aud ‘thoir stalely bearing, ns well as their pride of dress, show them to belong to a race far superior to the sur- rounding tribes. The Zuni women are comely. They are remarkable for the modest fulness of their dress. They wear skirts of black weollen cloth, and a ecarf gracefully folded over the breast, Thess goods aro of their own make. Their hsir, neatly braided, forms & head-dress, ‘Their houses are clean, and their cooking'is not 1o be despised, The Zuni Indians are more than kalf civilized. They are essentinlly 2 pastoral people. They have fields of corn, wheat, aud vegetables. They have flocks of sheep aud goats. They raise horses, horned cattle, and asses. Thoy corral their stock at night in high stone enclosures. They use all their animals for food, but a fatted ass i8 their favorite dixh. They keep fowls. "hey spin their own wool and weave it. ‘hey have s’ d frolic at threshing time. The gruin in sheaf is tuken to a Lroad, ilat rocky plece, and thirty or forty horsemen canter and caper about on this threshing floor till the grain is well sep- arated. 1t is then winnowed by raking the straw and tossing tho cheff in the wind. After this, they close the day with & gencral horserace, after the fashion of our agricultural fairs. As our diamond hunters aro sbout to peopls the neighboring country,itis interesting to know that these Zuni Indians are fricndly to white men, angd that supglics canbe had there, Tho Valley of the Rio Grando is well settled with Mexican fermers and herdsmen. These und tho Zunis will make commen cause with the miners ogainat the flnndfldng Apaches, The Zuni Indixns never make wars of aggres- sion. They stand on the defensive. DBut out- side Indians fear them because of their superior organization and means of defence. Thercfore, their quietude is seldom disturbed. The well-watered goil is a dark gravelly loam. They have ¢ &ll times excollent pasture, to the ase of which travellers entoring the diamond re- gion by the way of Santa Fe and Albuguerque are made welcome, on payment of = moderate charge. Thoe houses of these Zuni villages ara well built of stone. They are three stories high; each ascending story recedeg,s0 asto mske a tor- race in front. Those Zuni Indians are truly devout. Their interior temples and altars, their priesthood and ceremonials bear refationship not remote from ours. ‘Traces of missionary influence aro evident, but the leading faith of the Aztec re- ligion has not been changed. It is au error to say zhasy worship thoSun. They worship the Great Spirit who resides in that fitting centro of light, life, and purity, to which are invisibly tracosble all earihly” blessings, and beyond which even imagination finds no tracings. To this earth and its brother worlds iha Great Spirit is an All-Seeing Eye, omniscient and omnipresent; and _though - our eight pene- trates the Universe and scans ten of millions of star-suns, not ouc nor all these suns combined stands to us ‘in eo intimats and so all-creative and omnipotent relationship 2s the Sun, which is Father to us alone—nnd our system knows no other, nor necds to look beyond. Wo have dog- mas leas sensible than this revelation of reason to these pritnitive worshippers of the Most High. This visible prasence promoted devotion un. known' to prayer-book worship. Nothing is more touching then the prostrate reverence they Ry to the Gréat Spirit at rise snd sct of sun. Liere is a living earnestness in it to us uiterly nuknown and inconceiveble. They claim_descent from the subjects of Monteznma. It will be romembored that the court aud tho temples of the City of Moxico were found by Cortez rich in gold and precious stones. The sources of gold aro kpown; but wlere they get the precious stones has beon & mystery. It seems probable that the ancestors of the present Zuni Indians were employed by Government in gathering the jowels which were 80 profuse in Mexico, and on’ the downfall of | Montezuma some remained. _There is such a tradition among thom, Ta tho history of Cortez's conquest, we are told that there wassa pl‘asl.l_ecy in their sacred records that Pllo‘-lma would invade and conquer them. The Zunis' have o tradition resembling it, They quote it with some variation—v. that a pale- fuced man, with a white, fowing beard, would come from the East, and restore them to a kin, dom of refinement and happiness. The tradi- tion intimates that the pale-faces will come, not. to take their lands, but to gather stones end minerals; and that the Great Spirit will lead them, by this attraction; that they come and learn the true Deity, and where is tho now Homo in whoso brightness they are to dwell with Him, after thoir pilgrimage on earth. They are not vory communicative about procions stoues, but they intimate that the country of rubies snd arnets is not far off ; that of diamonds is far- her. But the range is very extensive, and runs | into Chihuahua. Gearge Catlin, the great Indian traveller, de- ecribes sBome pleces where ho found families of Albino Indians, whose white hair touched the ground. In the principal Zuni village, that to- ward tho east, there are many such families. These Albinocs live among tho other Indians; but, while thoy are treated kindly, they are not held to be aquale. _Their swarthy companions never intermarry with them, nor do they appear ; to associate in outdoor work. Their occupation appears to be indoors. Their pink eyoa are too weak tostand exposure, T {features and i i the texture of their bair ia like tLe others; but : the color of thoir bair is milk-white.
