Il.—An appeal to the | policy-holders in all the States of the | Union to lend their assistance in prevent- | Ing adverse legislation is made by Presi- | dent Paul Morton of the Equitable Life | | Assurance Soclety in a circular letter | which iz being sent to policy-holders. | President Morton says’that the Insurance | business is certain to be the subject of | great consideration by Legislatures soon | to convene as a result of what has been | | printed and said about insurance during | ‘lhr: last six months. The circular con- | | tinues: But you cannot give men character nor | | make them honest by preamble, resolution or | enactment. What the life insurance business needs above everything is honesty and good business administration. There can be no ob- jection to proper legisiation safeguarding the | | business, but it should be souud and sane. The | soclety depends upon its policy-holders to see that there {s no unreasonable legislation en- | acted. It may from time to time call their attention to measures calculated to-do them | harm, but under no circumstances will it be | { y to any corrupt methods in preventing | | “'strike” legislation. We aim to meet the just | requirements of every Statc and Government | { pon our poliey-holders to see that | = ingust Any unfair insur- | ance law or unfalr insurance tax measure en- acted By your State Legislature injures you and reduces the dividend earnings of your policy. Your dividends would. be nearly 10 per cent larger if ft were not for the State taxes and license fees that the soclety is obliged to pay. Morton expresses the opinion that the ’Equilable has no right to contribute to | political campaign funds, and informs the | policy-holders that no such contributions will be made by the society in the future. He says in future the society’s reserve will be invested in real estate mortgages or ‘!he securities of other well-established | i(‘orpora!lons serving those sections of | the country which produce the premiums. | He assures the policy-holders that the financial condition of the society, as dis- closed by a most careful examination by competent and disinterested accountants, | 1s excellent, and that many economies already in practice and others yet to be made will enhance its conditions. e urges all policy-holders to continue the payment of their premiums, and says the investigation of the society has convinced him that there is no cheaper way than this for them to have sound life insur- ance. S LBt ¥ e MAY WITHDRAW FROM FRANCE. American Insurance Companies Protest Agninst New Law. PARIS, .Dec. 17.—Some large American in- | surance companfes threaten to withdraw from France, as a result of the sharp controversy over the new French insurance laws. The is- sue has now reached an acute stage, owing to | the insurance department of the Ministry of | Commerce having 1 rules under which | the insurance law becomes retroactive, The law as originally passed requires forelgn | insurance companies to purchase and d | French securities here &8 a protection for French policy holders. The American compa- nies are willing to accept this as applying to further business, but mot on policies already written. The entire outstanding American business in France amounts to many millions of dollars, and the retroactive rules will compel the de- posit by these companies of a large amount of | French bonds with the Government as a guar- ! antee to French policy holders. The American cmbassy bas submitted @ lengthy written pro- test. —— GENERAL NICHOLSON GIVEN A HIGH POST IN ENGLAND Chief Quartermaster and a Member of the Army Council.

ON DECISIVE CONFLICT Continued From Page 1, Column 1. ment and General Count Alexis Ignatieft is being held in reserve. Count de Witte had no faith in the pol- icy of Minister of the Interior Durnovo and consented to it only on condition that it should be confined to legal means. An officlal communication declaring a | of the Government will be issued to-mor- row. It'is the opinfon of many Liberals, as well as revolutionaries, that “with the first discharge of cannon Count de Witte will go.” They say it matters lttle whether the Premier is or Is not in sym- pathy with the policy of reaction; he can- not shirk responsibility for it. A prom- inewmt personage said: “The step taken toward reaction marks the beginning of the end and the policy which has been inaugurated is bound to fail. The Government's task will not be merely the arrest of a small group of leaders, but that of the whole population. | The powers conferred on the provincial authorities by the imperial ukase is tan- tamount to a declaration of martial law throughout the country and the irre- sponsible revression which the officers of the old rezime will be sure to commit when let loose can only serve to fan the flames."” News from the Interior to-night is very serfous. The revolt in the Baltic has spread southward to the province of Kovno, on the border of Poland, which belonged to the old kingdom of Lithu- anfa. The rebellion In Kursh is beyond control and the Government has infor- mation that a big uprising is in course of preparation in the Ural regions. An officer, who has just returned from | | Manchuria, sald that a spirit of mutiny | prevailed among a large portion of the |army and that the orisoners from Japan | had been saturated with revolutionary | ideas by agitators during their captivity and were ripe for open rebellion. g R MOSCOW MUTINY COLLAPSES.

MOSCOW, Dec. 17, 9 p. m.—The mutiny of the Rostof Grenadier Regiment col- | lapsed ignominiously to-night owing to interna] dissension and the discomtent of a large portion of the soldiers with the programme of the Soclalist leaders, who wished to force them to open collision Their | with the loval troops. After a meeting late this afternoon two battalions and a machine gun detachment deserted. The mutineers sent a deputa- tion to General Plavoffski, saying they had returned to duty, imploring his par- racks and seize the revolutionary com- The ringleaders endeavored in vain to | ry gentlemen are in ruins. hold the other battalions in line, but the defection of their comrades took all the | heart out of the malcontents. { Upon General Plavoffski's ultimatum | that he would open fire unless they imme- | | diately surrendered the remaining muti-! | neers laid down their arms and delivered up Private Schabaroff and other members of the revolutionary committee, as well | as several civilian agitators who were in | the barracks.

PARIS, Dec. 18.—A dispatch to the Journal from Trebizonde, Asia Minor, dated December 14, describes the| atrocities committed at Elizabethpol in the early part of December. It says that the Tartars attacked the Ar-| menians on December 2. The latter | offered resistance and endeavored to | send thelr familles away, but all the fugitives were massacred. Street fights | followed, and then came _house-to- | house conflicts, which lasted for sev- eral days. Finally the Tartars set fire to the town, which is now a mass of ruins.

LONDON, Dec. 18—%he correspon- dent of theg.Daily Telegraph at St () ' insists “that the military outbreak at Petersburg, in commenting on recent events In Russia, éays he is still op- | timistic and is convinced of the impos- | sibility of organizing a general strike, because public opinion and the peas-| antry are strongly averse to it. He Moscow is in no way an Indication of general disaffection in the army. He admits, however, that, unless the loy- alty of the army is above stspicion, the | prospect of re-establishing law and | order is gloomy one. ITALIAN CABINET § TIRES OF STRIFE Fortis Ministry Resigns| After an Adverse Vote in the Ministry ROME, Dec. 17.—The Cabinet of Prime Minister Fortis resigned this evening, fol- | lowing & twelve hours' debate in the | Chamber of Deputies and the defeat by | the opposition of the commercial modus vivendi with Spain. The sitting was an exciting one. It had been understood that the fate of the Cab- inet would be decided by the vote on the measure, and 450 Deputies were present. The visitors’ gallery was crowded to over- flowing, and the famous tragedian, Sal- | vini, who had been unable to gain admis- | sion, was sent to the press tribune with | a ticket on which was written “Salvini, editor of Success.” In the debate Premier Fortis defended | the position of the Government, saying | that the modus vivendi would protect| Italian interests, and that the assertion of | the opposition that a reduction in the| duty on Spanish wines from $4 to $240| would open a market to Spanish growers was untrue. In order to avold a misunderstanding, | he said, he would request the Chamber | for an explicit vote of ‘confidence inde- pendent af the vote on the measure in debate, and he declared the Government was willing to resign if it were defeated on either question. The poll on confidence in the Govern- ment resulted in an afirmative majority of 63, but that on the modus vivendl was lost by a majority of 182. The Ministry then resigned. ——————————— BOMB ON LOUBETS TRAIN PROV TO BE HARMLESS | | French Supposed Attempt Upon the ent's Life Only a Ble=., PARIS Dec. 17.—The bomb found on the train at St. Nomla Bretche, on | which President Loubet was proceeding | fom Marly with a shooting party and | which, it was supposed, was intended to kill the President, turns out to have been harmless.
