HANILTON D oL T0 BE SUE New York Life's Committee Files Report. Severely Arraigns For- mer President and His Lobbyist. — Recommends That Legal Ac- tion Be Taken to Recover Large Sums. —Elee o Spectal Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK . 8.—The special com- mittee appointed by the trustees of the New York Life Insurance Company to investigate the affairs of the company to- day made a partial report to the di- rectors. This report deals only with the relations of Andrew H. Hamilton, the leg- islative agent, with the company, and is a severe arraignment of his methods. John A. Mc! . late president of the New York 1 urance Company, also comes in for 3 re of the committee's criticism. He blamed for his methods ) the *“Bureau of Taxa- tion and Legis| on' during the last ten years and for allowing Hamilton to pay out vast sums of money without a proper accounting. Special attention is called to remittances of $10.000 to McCall in London and $134500 to Hamilton in Paris in 1900. The purposes of these remittances, the committee says, it has been unable to as- certain, and it recommends that proceed- ings be institutec against Hamilton and McCall for an accounting or repayment. Ihe. committes- ‘on this point that his to M information regarding the . transactidns, but that it is informed by MeCall's family that his physical and nervous.condition are such that the subject cannot be taken up at present. As to Hamlton's health, which has been reported as being bad, the committee says it has been informed that he was physically able to travel and has exerted every effort to induce him to re- turn to make a full disclosure of his pay- ments, disbursements and transactions, but without success. The committee also holds McCall and Hamilton responsible for $35,000 advanced to Hamilton to pay the State tax, and which, the committee declares, was used by Hamilton for his own purposes. The committee is advised that both are liable for this sum. The committee maintains, also, that it is o matter for legal adjudication as to whether George W. PerKins, of the firm of J. P. Morgan & Co., is not liable for the peyment of Hamilton'’s motes . for $5¢,310. Perkins pald this account, the commitee holds, out of the New York Life Insurance Compa ware of profits in its participation 1 nited States Steel Corporation The committee in connection w a syndicate. holds that the payments of these notes by the company was unwarranted. 1t is only iust to Perkins to say, the report adds, that he acted in the matter in en- tire good faith; that he derived no benefit from the transaction, and that his liabil- ity, if any, is a technical one. The committee recommends that the law department of the company institute appropriate legal proceedings to carry into effect the findings and conclusions of this report. NEW YORK, Feb. 8.—John A. McCall, former president of the New York Life Insurance Company, is again reported seriously i1l at Lakewood, N. J. McCall has been confined to his bed for some days and is attended constantly by two nurses and a physician. His condition is sald to be causing his family much alarm. WORSHIPERS BATTLE WITH THE GENDARMES Brisk Fight Follows Taking of Inventory of French Church Property. VERSAILLES, Feb. 8 —When the Commissioner appointed to inventory church property ven‘! to the Church of Symphorien to-day he found the doors of the church closed. Prefect Poirson ordered the military engineers to break into the church with hatchets. After the doors had been broken open the Prefect parleyed with the cure, who asked that the gendarmes be not per- mitted to enter. The Prefect consented and entered the church with the Com- missioner. They were immediately bombarded with & shower of chairs and brickbats by & few manifestants who had barricaded themselves in the organ loft. The Prefect was hit on the head with a ¢hair. The gendarmes after a sharp tussle stormed the loft and in the | fight seven of them were so badly wounded that they had to be sent to a hospital. The inventory was then made, all entrances to the church being guard- ed with dragoons and engineers. The manifestants were arrested and taken before the summary jurisdiction court, which sentenced Devezin, Bosquet and Du Hamel to two years' imprison- ment and to pay fines of $100 each. Maister, aged 20 vears, and Toubaz, were sentenced to six months' impris- onment; Marchand, aged 22, to one year, and a priest named Briere to one month in prison. te for Trans-Mi g CITY, Fel TEEL MAGNATE'S WIFE PROSTRATED IN REN S The matrimonial troubles of Mrs. Corey, wife of the steel magnate, have proved too great a l burden for her.

Picks to Save Miners Tmprisoned by Cave-In in Tuolumne B e R R o8 P Speclal Dispatch to The Call STOCKIQN, Feb. 8.—Tomeo Sablich and M. Vukotich were imprisoned in a drift:in the App mine, near Jamestown, by the collapse of the roof of the drift last Monday night!, To-day noon the rescue crew, which has been at work every minute since the alirm was given, drove an iron_pipe.through the mass of rock and earth which separated them from the place where Sablich and Vukotich had been . working. Soon a tapping was heard on . the pipe. The rescuers halloed at their end of the pipe. Faint and apparently from a great distance came the voices of the imprisoned men. They said they were uninjured, but were very hungry and they begged their rescuers to “hurry up, for God's sake” The foreman stated that the impris- oned men wouki be rescued about 6 o'clock to-night. Sablich and Vukotich were at work alone in a drift, nearly 500 feet below the surface. They had not been long at work when there came the sound of crushing timbers, followed by a crash which was heard throughout the mine. Other miners hurried toward the point. They found the entire roof of that part of the mine had caved in. The drift was blocked by tons of rock andeearth. A The foreman decided that there was a chance that the imprisoned miners were alive. He called for volunteers. The men dug like demons. All the while their fellow miners urged them The crew worked in four-hour on, shifts. - The moment one crew tired another took its place. They rested and slept close to their work. If the imprisoned men are taken out this evening, as it is expected, they will have been imprisoned for sixty hours without a bite to eat. They have had plenty of water, for a stream was run- ning from that drift. MINERS KILLED BY EXPLOSION Strike a Pocket of Gas on Lower Level and Twenty- Eight of Them Meet Death CHARLESTON, W. Va., Feb. 8.—Twen- ty-eight men are supposed to have met death in a terrible mine explosion in the Parall _mine of the Stewart Collieries Company, near Oakhill. Thirty-nine men were employed in the mine, and only eleven have escaped alive. At midnight six bodles had been recovered near the mouth of the mine, and it is certain that all the others in the mine are dead. Among those known to be in the mine and supposed to be dead are: Mine Boss Pratt and his son (white); four negroes, David Wells, Jeames Swan, George Jones and Willlam Madison, and Robert Feath- ergilt. r%::‘e explosion occurred at 1:30 o'clock to-day and was caused by a pocket of gas, which was struck in a fault in the mine. The explosion was terrific and it is thought that many of the miners were killed outright by it. The system of fans was wrecked and all alr was shut off, leaving the men to smother to death. The mine is a shaft mine, about 700 feet deep, and the unfortunate miners had little chance of escepe. i ~ Most of the entombed men are Hunga- rians or negroes who had little experience in mining.

NEW YORK, Feb. 8—The make up of the summer man of 1906 is fore- cast in the Haberdasher for Febru- ary. He will differ from the summer man of former years largely in belng “‘more so.” The indications show that the shirt- makers, having reached the limit in weird combinations of color last year, have gone back to the patterns in use when the negligee shirt era begané The popular pattern will be a white shirt full of all sorts of squares made by a deep colored light line which will re- mind one of the kind “Uncle Si" used to wear, with a celluloid collar pinned on it. The clothing ‘for men will be light in color and full of squares made by dark. colored lines. The coats for spring and summer are to be “waisty” —that is, they are to show the figure between the hips and shoulders. The fold-over collar will continye in favor. The trousers will be slightly nar- rower and as short as sightly lines will permit. Half hose of rainbow hues and neckties to match will help along the color scheme. Panama hats and fine straw Alpines and sailors will make up the headwear.’ The pajamas for the summer are wonderful things and, to use the ex- pression of Broadway, are ‘“perfect dreams.” e ALGECIRAS CONFERENCE COMES TO A DEADLOCK Nefther France Nor Germany Will Retire From Its Attitude PARIS, Feb. 8.—Opinion concerning the progress and final outcome of the Alge- ciras conference has become rather more here in consequence of semi- d that a point FINS W HE BELIEVE " JEAD ALIE Los Angeles Doctor Is Unconsciously a Bigamist. LOS ANGELES, Feb. 3. —After a happy married life of ten years with his third wife Dr. W. B. Forden, aged 72, discovered that his marriage was illegal and that he had been uncon- sclously a bigamist all those years. To= {day he applied to the courts for an an- nulment of his marriage. While Dr. Forden was a surgeon in the Confederate army he married a Southern girl. Their union was not a happy one and he finally left his wife and daughter. Hearing some years later that his wife was dead he mar- ried again, but his second wife died in a few menths. He married a third time and found happiness. In 1903, during the conclave of the Knights of Pythias In San Francisco, he learned from - Arkansas members that his first wife was living and that his daughter was married and resided at Phoenix, Ariz. He went to Phoenix, confirmed what had been told him and returning to San Francisco settled nearly all his property on his third wife and having told her his trouble left her. Now he seeks through the court to protect her name and make such amends as the law makes possi- ble. LION SINKS TEETH IN A MAN'S NECK Beast Attacks a Circus Em- ploye Who Was Feed- ing It.
