" CHICAGO.. TRIBUNE " SUNDAY. JANUARY 20, 1878 SIXTEEN -PAGES, b, S, ' THE CHICAGO LIFE. laint to Be Made to the Grand ‘mpj‘ury Against Its Late President. e of the Grounds on Which It Is Based---Alleged Fraudulent Statements, Somt ¥, Tncker's Explanation’ of His Jonnec- """ tion with the Company. 1o July of Jast yearan examinstion was made bythe Auditor, of the Chicago Life-Tnsnrance hapsns, which resulted fn the disclosure of serious impatrment, and also in the defalca- Sapof its Secretary, Mr. Clapp. Subsequent examipations made by the Receiver showed 4hat the conaition of the Company was fully as }ad as the Examiner had reported it. This bas patarally caused serious dissatisfaction among jte policy-bolders, which has found expression plsints against the officers of the mi a:;;ny. The findinzg of indictments against the President and others counected with the Protection Life-Insurance Com- has ounly inflamed the fcelings finu,e policy-holders of the Chicazo Life, and hss set them to thinking whether criminal pro- ceedings conld ot be had against those who controffed their Comnany. The services of Mr. Emers A. Storrs, on whom 2 reporter called terday, were engaged, and that gentleman Juas been busied for some. time fu preparing a brief, setting out the points in which ofticers of the Company were liable to indictment, and collecting evidence, ete., for the use of the Grand Jury. The names of Witnesses have been furnished, and the Grand Jurv will this week begin the consfderation of a complaint azatost William F. Tucker aund Mr. Clapp, the former hving been President of the Company from 1867 down to the time it went into the Lands of a Recelver. THE-PRINCIPAL CHARGE madewill be that of perjurv in swearing to folseand fraudulent accounts rendered to the Auditor of State. As cvidence of this will be pot in the reports for 1875 and 187G, and also the resuits of the examinations made by the Insurance Department and the Recefver of the bavkrupt concern.

According to the report of Ex- aminer Woods, seventeen months later, the con- dition of the concern showed that this surplus of nearly $100,000 4ad_been entirely consumed, and that in addit¢oa there was an_impainnent, ontside of cdpitel, of over §148,000. A lapse of Eeven wounths shows that the wortzace aceount had ditmubisbed nearty $110.000. This 1clling off s acvo d for by the fact that the state- ment of Dec. 31, 1876, was a_cooked one, goften up to deveive the umwary. It wasbuilt up of a ot of morteazes and other securities which pever were the property of the Company. They were teruporarily deposited n the vaults of the toncern by Ctapp and Barry, in order to swell the assets, and cnable it topass muster through 1he Auditor’s Department. This amazinz discrepancy will be put in as prima facie evidence that the Compauy’s etate- 1went was fraudutent. THE NEXT FOINT o be submitted will be in regard to 2 mortzagze given by Mr. William F. Tacker for 315, ated Dec. 1, 1872 to secure o note of cqual date aud amouunt. The trust-deed or mortgave 45 on thirty acres at the corner of Twenty-sixth strect aud California averue. On this proerty 2 previous mortgage bad been given by Mr. “Tucker to secure a stock note of §20,000, on ‘which $6.800 had been paid, leaving a "balance due, with accrued ioteress, of S13,001 It will be charved that there was no consideratfon for this mortgage—that it was executed and handed over Eimply to swell the assets of the Compsny, or to hefp re- duce expenses. By putting tius mortgage in, 1he erpenses for 1572 were apoarcutly reduced $1500. The exve: which it was thus put nto cancel were $7.500 for acemts’ expenses eud §7,500 for commissions. The books no- where show that any value was Teceived by Mr. ‘Tucker for this mortgage. It1s not known positively whether any effort will be made to indict Mr. Tucker on actount of the opeiutions of pp and Barry, a fittle “syndicate who were doing | the buginess of buying securities ovutside of the Company, but taking i +Company’s name. Thenthe “to the Company. When it beeame nece: {otke up an gnonal report, Clapy reported ail ‘these seeurities as theproperty of the Company, aud the report would show more of them be- longing to the Company than was actually the ase. According to Woods' Teport, 0 ot these sceurities, apparently belony Cowpany, belouged to tiae Syr @ude of business, however, it i§ believed, was Luown only to Clapp, and not_to the Direc or Mr. Tucker, who, 1t stems, had absolute con- Gdence v him. of the 1t appears also, from an examination Dooks, that.

Thc money thus paid did not come frum the " profits of the capital stock, Lot was en from. the premiums vaid in by policy-holders. Morally every dol of these dividends was filched from:the polic, Lolders. It 1s doubtful whether the Directors or Mr. Tacicer knew auything about this, aud it s most likely that Clapp's fraudulent state- ments that the Company was doing a laree ‘usiness justificd them In_the belief that they Were eutitled to these dividends. C In addition to all these things, the attention of the Graud Jury will be called tothe fact that, Priorto the burst-up of the Company, some lides were reinsured in_other comipanie: Mav 19, 1876, William F. Tucker’s _poli 35,000 was reinsuredin the National L ife. Graud Jury will be asked whether it was likely tbata person who was the President of the Compauy, and was iusured in it, would reinsure bimself 1o another company, unless be had #ome cause to doubt the solveucy of his own. MR. TUCKER. A TRIBUNE reported called on Mr. Tucker ist eveniug, and, after acquaintig him with 1he fact of the comploiot, %:nl a conversation With him regarding th3 allezations in it.

The Royal Establishment at Munich—Some of Its Productions—Autiquity of Colored Glass. To the Editor of The Tribune, Cuicaco, Jan. 19.—The note of Mr. C. P, Tuowas. found in your Impression of the Lith inst., calls for some edditional words from me on the subject of colored glass. I shall be very brief; and couid wish that Mr. Thowmas, when he had started bis inquiry respecting the Munich works, badgpursued it, as surely Le might have done, to the instruction and pleasure of your readers. As to the artist of the new memorial window in St. James® Chureh, it is impossible, I regret to s to give bis nawme; und though there are wany works by the sume hand in Boston and other Eastern cities, 1 cannot aescribe them, for the reason thas I have not scen them. But the manutactory is that of Me: Cottier, of London. Asto the Royal manufaciors of Munich (it o longer exists), a grezt deal might be saic, for it marks a most interesting period in the kistory of colored aiass,—and, besides, its works are among the best, perbaps the best, of recent times. Ten vears ago the Muuich colored glass was 50 es- teemed in England that scarce any of Enelish manufacture was to be found in her churches and pubiic buildings of contemporancous strue- ture. Butin1872the Royal Munich manutae- tory was closed. The Royal Glass-Painting Estgblishment at Municb, for such was its full name, was founded in 1323 by King Louis of Bavaria.

Mr. Frank H, King Explicitly Denies : the Charges of Bigamy. He Prai)eses to Prove His Innocence by Appealing to_ the Records. The Letest Developments Obtained by Oinoinnati Reporters, Yesterday's TRIBUNE contained a denial from Mr. Frank H. King, the husband of the well- Lnown oianist, Mme. Julia Rive-King, to the story published in the Cincinnati Commercial about his alleged marrying propensities. A TRIDUNE reporter sought Mr. King yesterday, with & copy of the Cincinnati paper in bis hand, for the purpose of interviewing him more fully as to the charges against him. ~ Mr. King was found in his room at the Clifton House, but, while pleasant enouga in his demeanor, he re- fused to go into the subject any more fully than he had done in the article published yes- terday morning, which, he said, contaiied as explicit a denial to all the charzes made as he could possibly make were e to talk s month. He added that he was going to Cleyeland next Weanesday on professional busfness, and that while there he should go to THE MARRIAGE RECORDS, from which he could prove that he never mar- ried anybody in that city. After that he was going to.Tippceance, where be could get the same kind of proof that he had never married anybody there. Then he should go to Cincin- natl, interview the editor of the Commercial, and demand the publication of cortifled fucts, instead of -his own say-so, to prove that the stories circulated against “hitn were false from beginning to end. Inthe meantime, he did not see how further and more extendea denials of the chargzes in the papers could do any good. People were always readier to beleve evil of aman than good, and, until he could back up his assertions with evidence from the records, be proposed to remain silent. Mr. King did, however, in the course ot far- ther talk much to the above effect, add that ft certatnly secmed improbable that he would marry Miss Rive so publicly if there were any @anger of such stories coming out azainst hiw. His warriage was telegraphed allover the coun- try. There bad veen NOT THE SLIGHTEST EPFORT at concealment. Avy man, unless he were a fool, would bave been married secretly nad there been any slumbering charzes aeainst oun, in danger of being kindled into aflameata moment’s noifee. On 'the contrary, his mar- ringe was perfectly open and above-board. What could possibly be the motive in circulating such base and false charges he could not {magrine, untess it were that some overweening- Iy jealous Cincinuatfans were piqued beeause he bad brougbt Mme.

The old gentleman objected to bis its, and frequently drove him from the honse.

The father Wis vers anery nt iirst, but after o while relented, and supported them up to the time of his death, which eccurred about three years after their marriaze, Tae first father-in-law of King hias been repre- sented 8 having been a rich man. He was in #ood circums:ances, carrying on astore and gome coop- cr-shops av Smithville. but was not rich. King and his wife lived at Tippecanoe, O., sowe six or ezt vears, where they hea two children, a boy and a xirl. ' King supported the family by playing the violin, teaching dancing, and doing an ocea sional job'of painting. lle then left Tippecanoe, and went to Mitclell, Ind., where he represcnted himself as teaching music in come academy. From that time forward he gave his wife no support, and she was compelled to put ber children outy She with §0_boor thut she frequently nad to £o ont and pick berries for enough to liva on. Aftera while he came down ‘to Milford, and, after staying there ubout & year, working out, went o Dayton, \here "she’ was employed as a waitress ot the City Hotel. We heard nothing of King, after ke had been at Mitchell o while, until he turned up here, abont the time of the second Cincinnat: Exposition, as General Agent for Weber's piauos, with hid headquarters at Johin Churcly's music ‘storc. Hfe subsequently went to D. H. Buldwin'e, as agent for the Decker pianos. since which time I bave not kept the run of hismovements. There is no truth whatever in the statement that my efster-in-luss ever intended or threatened 1o bring suit aguinst King, nor fs it true, as stated n yesterday’s Commercial, that ehe visited Mme.

Several other satements made inthe Commercial yesterday were also nntrac, and the name of Vance 20t into the article {n an unaccountable way. Here I8 no_person named Vance umixed up fn the matter that 1 know of. 1 suppose the reporter thought 1wy sister-in-liw was my sister. The assertion that the so-called “**Mrs. Vance," a widow of 36, witn Lwo children, invcigled King, an innocent boy of 18, into 3 marriage, is absurd, Sallie Carles was not quite 18 sears old when Klug took her away from echool and marriea her, MADAME HIVE, An Enquirer reporter got the fallowfug from the mother-in-law; An Enguirer voporter had a short talk with Mine.

Itshould be borne {n mind that the Mzdame never consented freely 1o her daugiter's marriuge with King, and doce'nat now, nor has she_ever-felt mothetly or even kindly toward him. She took occasion 10 re- mind our reporter that King was living aX the vounty of her daughter. It 1s not strange, {hege- fore, that Mme. ftive should believe 1hat Ner son- ist, and her danghter accordingly win, _ Mre, Vancy hes succeeded, tling the Madame's mind 0ss of King, and yet she con- she never saw a marriage-certilleate from ance.© As a still farther proof. to show the and perhaps biused mind of the mother- Law, Mme. Rive stated to our reporter that she believed Ninette King. the girl now at the Good Samarstan_Convent, was not the child of Sally Carles King, but of some sabsequent wifa; wiere- a3 the fact 13, that Ninette was bary in Tippecanoe, and grew up under the eges of the Cariescs snd Itohrers. 1t speaks volumes of praise for Mrs. Julia Rive- Kinz that she has not for a moment put a grain of Delief in any of the rumors, aud refases to give ur to Mrs, Vance's story.
