A dummy loan of $623,730 carried by a $2.000-a-vear clerk was unearthed this afternoon at the legislative inquiry Into the Eaultable Life Assurance Society's syndicate transactions. ‘The clerk's name was elven as E. Barrington, formerly emploved in the oMce of ex-Fourth Vice-President William H. McIntyre. ‘The money was advanced by the Eouitable Trust Company and the our- pose of the transaction was to keep the investment off tis insurance concern's books. James Hazen Hvde and associates managed thie syndicate of the dummy loan feature. Scandal followed close on the heels of scandal to-day when Assistant Secretary Henry Rogers Winthrop. of the Equita- ble Life Assurance Society was under oath to reveal the syndicate operations of the institution, The Pe! Ing Company syndicate wa participa. ion of the Equitable Sectety in this syndicate was $2,000,000, and Mr. Winthrop testified that of this amount Senator Chauncey M. De- Pew took $100,000, This is the first time, it is anid, that Senator De- pew has Leen connected publicly with a syndicate transaction in the Eauituble troubles. It developed that for many years Gen, Louls Fitzgerald, who is now being Sued by the Attorney-General, was the Poo Bah of the Equitable security in- vestments. Fitzgerald was a great man for get- ting participations in synticates, which he invariably took in his own name. Fitzgerald would usually let the Equitable share in his participations, and when it was necessary for the so- olety to pap money on oall, Fitzgerald, sometimes as chairman, sometimes as secretary of the Equitable'’s finance committee, ordered the money pald. Thomas D. Jordan, one of the “trustees” of the Equitable's $68,000 “yellow dog fund,” was Fitzgerald's hief Meutenant in these transactions. Profits Were Cut Up. In a Chicago, Burlington and Quincy syndicate the Equitable made $37,000, but the deal was so arranged through a “cut up” with Fitzgerald, Chauncey Depew and James Hazen Hyde, James W. Alexander, George H. Squire “and others” that the society after risking $1,500,000 got only $7,789. Mr. Hughes questioned Mr. Winthrop. Q. What about Pennsylvania Conl Purchase Syndicate—J. P. Morgan & Co, managers? Do you know who was associated with “Gen, Fitzgerald and others?” A, Yes, sir. Mr. Hughes took the statement from the witness and read that among the participants were William A. Wheelock, Gen. Louls Fitzgerald, Marcellus Hart- ley, J, W. Alexander George H, Squire and Chauncey M, Depew for $1000” each; C. B, Alexander for $75,000, and ‘T, De Witt Cuyler for $25,000. Gen.
