ANDREW. D. WHITE IS INJURED
Former Ambassador to Germany la
Struck by Flyln Glass
While Traveling.
NEW YORK, April 3. Andrew D. White,
former president of Cornell university and
rx-ambarsador to Oermany, haa had a nar
row escape from death while returning to
this city from New Haven. He was se
verely cut by glass from a broken window
and only escaped by the narrowest margin
from losing the top of his head. The silk
hat which ha wore was cut across as If
by a knife scarcely more than one-eighth
of an inch from the top of his head. Mr.
White had a sent in a Pullman two cars
back from the engine. Near him sat a
woman and child. The train was running
at a high rate of speed near Rye when It
passed a freight train going In the opposite
direction. - Suddenly there was a crash
and a shower of glass and bits of wood
fell on Mr. White, who had been reading.
His hands and arms were severely cut,
while a piece of plate glass had cut his silk
hat almost In two. The former diplomat
was dazed by the suddenness of the crash
and Is still suffering fro t the shock. The
woman passenger sitting nearby was
slightly hurt, and when the train reached
New York she was sent home in a cab. ' '
Examination of the car showed that
something had hit the double window op
posite where Mr. White was seated. Glass
from that sido apparently had been hurled
across the car with such force that the
window beside the former diplomat was de
molished. Tho train was stopped, but no
cause for the accident could be found nor
waa there evidence that anything had
been thrown at 'the train. The trainmen
reached the conclusion that A car door on
the passing freight train caused the trouble.

C. E. Grunsky, who last Saturday ten
dered his resignation as one of the Isthmian
Canal commission, has been appointed a
consulting engineer In the Irrigation recla
mation service.
Matcoon Talks of Appointment.
Judge Mogoon, whose appointment as
governor of the Panama canal lone and
member of the isthmian canal commission
was announced today, said in speaking of
the appointment: 'My inclinations were all
toward declining the honor which the presl
dent, through Secretary Taft, has given
me. I recognize fully the responsibility of
the position. My short sojourn In Panama
convinces me a herculean task was before
the members of the commission aa to build
ing the ' world'a grant waterway. Yet I
recognised the opportunity to be a part of
this building commission comes to but few
men, and to have a charjee to try was
Something, and I am going to."
Judge Magoon has been the recipient of
hundreds of telegrams since his appoint
ment has been made public and it Is
doubted If more gratifying testimony has
been paid by the president to any faithful
public official than In the case of Charles
E. Magoon of Nebraska. He has won his
spurs. As soon as he can arrange the de
tails, his office in the insular bureau, with
which he has been connected since he
came to Washington, Judge Magoon will
proceed to the isthmus to take up the gov
ernment work and the governorship of the

eyes for years to come.

conclusion It is not deemed the province
of the department to enter into a criticism
of his conduct. Federal Judges in the

Judges may be removed by the president.

EQUITABLE UNDER SCRUTINY
A Hairs of Assurance Society Are Being
Examined bj New York Officials.
PRESIDENT ALEXANDER MAKES STATEMENT
He Denies t harse of Vice President
Hyde that He la Seeklna; to Gala
Control of Compaay'a As
sets and Business.
NEW YORK, April 3 -The most Impor
tant development In the Equitable Assur
ance society s affairs today was the an
nouncement tonight by Oovernor Hlggins
at Albany and by President James V.
Alexander of the society In this city, that
tho state superintendent of Insurance
Francis Hendricks, had begun an investi
gation of the company's affairs.
This was followed by the introduction In
the state senate tonight of a resolution
providing for a legislative Investigation of
the Equitable. The resolution was pre
sented by Senator Brackett.
Mr. Hendricks returned to Albany last
night after several days spent In conference
with those Interested In tho Equitable mat
ters In this city, The governor's announce
ment came less than twelve hours after
the superintendent had reached his Albany
office and was followed by a formal an
nouncement from Mr. Hendricks' office in
this city tonight to the same effect.
This action by the state authorities fol
lows a request made by Mr. Alexander to
Superintendent Hendricks by letter Febru
ary 21, and by Mr. Hyde in a later letter,
announcement of which was made last Sat
urday night
President Alexander's Statement.
In an authorized statement tonight, the
first Mr. Alexander has made since the
state superintendent was called Into the
controversy the president of the Equitable
says that the Investigation by Mr. Hen
dricks Is now in progress.
'Its result," he adds, '"will establish the
truth or falsity of many matters which
are now being alleged on the one hand
and controverted on the other."
He also takes occasion to deny some
of the statements made formally bv Mr.
Hyde last Saturday night.
Mr. Alexander's stutirrent follows:
It has been my settled rurnose to avoid
as far as possible a discission in the
public press of the nulls of any ph;ise
of the controversies now existing within
the Equitable Life Assurance society. It
is properly a matter nf on..Urn n.m,
avoid any expression which will embarrass
the honrd of directors -in the discharge of
its duties or that will give rise to pre
mature Judgments on any matter affecting
the society or any individual. I am con

Hyde's Charges Denied.
in a Signed stntpmen laanH V,f th.
vice president of the society, James H.
nyoe, on Saturday, April 1, 1996. certain
statements were ninde which I cannot
allow to pass unchallenged. He says that
the charges that have been mHde against
him have their origin in an effort by Indi
viduals to (fbtaJn control of the trnnit,,i,io
society and Its assets. On the nnrt of
invneii ana or ine otner oncers nf tin.
society who are associated with me in this
movement, I desire to deny that our action
Is influenced by any motive except a desire
to discharge our duty as officers of the
socleti'.
Mr. Hyde further savs that he h ..
ercisea no rower excent with the nrnm.
dent's concurrence. In reply I assert that
Mr HydOB USUtoatlon of the nreuiHonr.
authority and his hnhltUal action without
the Consent Or knowledirn of the nn.IH.ni
of the society are arootui the subieets of
serious cHtlrlsrti aaainst his rnmtu,i u
officer of the society-
Mr. Hyde s request for an examination
of the society's affairs by the superintend-
tiii vi insurance must ne viewed as an
acquiescence of my course In this respect,
which, a few days ago. Mr. Hyde waa dis
posed to regard as taken without authority.
i nave inus far mado no denial of the
frequent assertion that as one of the
trustees of the Hyde stock I am vested
with the power of votlnir it. The trust
expressly provides that no vote shall be
enst by the Hydo shares at anv election
of the society by the three trustees except
for a person approved by Mr. James H.
Hyde, who is also one of the trustees.
Law Covering- the Case.
The section under which Superintendent
Hendricks today began his investigation is
section 39 of the insurance law, whlrh pro
vides that the superintendent of insurance
may, as often as he deems It expedient,
"appoint one or more persons as examiners
to examine into the affairs of any such
corporation and its books with reference to
Its business. Every such corporation. Its
officers and agents shall produce Its books
nd all papers In Its or their possesion
relating to ita business or affairs' for the
Inspection and examination of such ex
aminers wherever required."
The law also provides for a hearing to
the corporation on the examiner's report
before filing such report.
The announcement of an Investigation
was preceded by a statement that the hear
ing before the superintendent of insurance
pn the application of Crlmmlns' policy
holders' committee, which had been set
for tomorrow, had been postponed.

NOVEL CURE FOR BITE OF DOG
Mother of Hoy Prefers It to Follow
ing the Advice of Police
Sura-eon.
A 13-year-old boy named Nicholas
Danxe, of 13)8 Pierce street, was attacked
and severely bitten near his home yester
day afternoon by a bulldog owned by John
Mathes, who lives on Poppleton avenue.
The boy was brought to the police station
in order that an information might be
made against the owner of the dog, and
this led to an examination of the wound
by Police Surgeon Kennedy. When the
temporary bandages were removed
bunches of short brown hair were found
carefully applied to all of the cuts.
"What Is this?" inquired Dr. Kennedy.
"That is hair from the dog," replied the
mother.
"Why did you put that on?"
"Well, that la the very best thing to
do," she replied very seriously.
"You had better let me- cauterise the
wounds," suggested the doctor.
"Oh, no," sho replied; "hair from the
back of a dog that has bitten a person is
the very best cure for a bite."
As tho woman would not agree to have
the wounds cauterised or have the ' hair
removed, Dr. Kennedy declined to Identify
himself with that sort of surgery ami the
woman took her boy home.

RECEIPTS FROM TAX SALES
Total Amount of Money Gathered In
as Result of Scavenger
Law.
Footings made in the county treasurer's
office of the total receipts on account of
the scavenger tax sales show a total of
f.439,799.75. This Is divided as follows:
Omaha, $270, 791. 8S; South Omaha, S40.234.S5;
county of Douglas, $128,773.02. County treas
urer Fink estimates that the sales to be
started In May Will increase this total by
from $150,000 to $200,000.
The above figures Include only money ac
tually received as a result Of sales under
tho law. The receipts to the treasuries of
the various civil divisions indirectly moved
Mr. Fink to say that the law has been
even a greater success than Its friends
hcved for. y
County Treasurer Fink reports that many
of the large lists of real estate are being
made out and paid from day to day. In
this connection the treasurer wants to re
nllnd the people that real estate taxes be
come delinquent on May 1. He especially
desires that the big lists be attended to
prior to that date, because along toward
the end of April, when the rush begins,
the! treasurer's force will be compelled to
give attention first to the small taxpayer.
The payment is growing in volume from
day to day, and the outlook for a heavy
total before the day for delinquency Is very
good.
