ALL CHARGES CF WRONGDOING DENIED
Kearral aent at l.oalsTllle lls
charged llrranae He Attacked
latesrltr Management
FltANKFORT. Ky., Oct. 1.-Chsrles A.
Pealtody. president of the Mutual Life
Insurance rumps ny of New York, appeared
here todav before Insurance ConimleslniiT
H. R. Prewttt to answer chsrges whl''h
were read to him bj- the commissioner.
These charges coveted attempts to coerce.
Intimidate and otherwise Influence Bgen' 1
of the company into soliciting votes fori
the ticket known as the "ndministrntion I
ticket." compelling silarlil employes of j
the company to electioneer "nd solicit
votes for that ticket: thrertenlng employes
of the company with discharge unless they
loyally support the ndministrntion ticket;
the discharge of several of the managing
agents of the company because they or
some klnsnmn of theirs have accepted a
nomination on a ticket othr than the nd
mltil 'ti-nlion ticket, or 'because thry would
not support and sr.llclt Mtes for Uj'O
ticket; "and that you hnc lately dis
missed Colonel Blscoe Hlnd.iinn. lst man- j
aging agent of the company In Kentucky,
because he accepted n nomination for
trustee on n ticket other than the adminis
tration ticket and because he refused or
failed loyally to support the Candida ten
on the administration ticket."
To these charges Mr. Pealwdy entered
n denial, and when It came to explaining
the dismissal of Colonel Iflndntan he seld
he could not have dismissed him for being
on the trustees' ticket, because Colonel
Ifindman had told him that he had not
accepted the nomination Mr. Peabody
stated that C.'louel Hlndman had openly
and avowedly attacked the integrity of the
management and that his position was not
consistent with n proper performance of
his duties as an Insurance manager. It
.was for this reason that Colonel Hlndman
was dismissed.
gtateinent hy I'eahody.
. Mr. Peabody then read a prepared state
ment. In part, as follows, stating the posi
tion of the company:
"The bylaws of the company provide that,
with the exception of the president and
vice president, no officers of the company
shall be members of the bosrd of trustees.
"To comply with this bylaw In the few
Instances where managers or agents of the
company have announced tha intention of
accepting dominations for office as tru
tees, this company" has flt Impelled to
terminate the contracts under which such
managers and agents hsve been In the com
pany's service.
"No action has been taken by the com
pany which can properly be characterized
as coercing any employe Into voting or
soliciting votes otherwise than as his own
free will dictates.
"The law compels the trustees to nom
inate a ticket -described as 'administration
ticket." . '
"However, no money of the corporation
can be properly used In electioneering, and
this committee has not and will not au
thorise any such use. '
"It. Is the duty of all' employes of tho
company to explain to the policyholders
their rights under the law. And It Is the
duty of , all such emfdoj'es to abstain from
exercising any kind of. coercion and from
submitting to any coerclom." " M t. '" "
Decision le Reeerred '
At the 'clone -of the statement and after'
soins further questioning of Mr. Peabody
aa to details. Commissioner Prewltt stated
that a .decision In the matter may not be
announced for several days.
Mr. Peabody's willingness to appear, al
though the power of the commissioner to
compel him to attend was In doubt, created
a favorable impreelalon. Under a recent
Kentucky statute the power of the insur
ance commissioner to oust a company from
the state Is absolute.
The investigation at times took a wide
range and once Mr. Peabody protested.
This was when Attorney Brown asked Mr.
Peabody who sent out the ballot from New
York with only one ticket on It. Mr. Pea
body replied that the company did not, and
Mr. Brown asked who did. Thla brought
out the protest and Commissioner Prewltt
held that only the affairs of the company
were betng Investigated. Mr. Peabody then
stated voluntarily that he himself had sunt
out the ballots on his own personal ac
count. Spend. Hla Own Money.
Mr. Peabody said further that he wanted
It understood that tha company is not do
ing any campaigning, nor have Its agents
been told that they would be dismissed If
they did not get votes for the administra
tion ticket. Mr. Brown then asked the di
rect question whether or not the company
would not in the end bear the expense of
running the administration ticket In the
coming election, and Mr. Peabody's reply
was:
If you sre now Ashing to find out whether
the company . was paying the expense of
the election you will find nothing. The
company Is not paying and no one expects
to he reimbursed, but I will answer your
question as to my object In spending money
In. the election, regardless of whether it ia
a proper question. My object' (s to eeuure
the election of that ticket because of my
Interest in the company and because 1 am
policyholder. , . . 7 .
'Replying to. a question by I Commissioner
Prewltt,. Mr. Peabody. said' he was spMid
Utg money for the administration ticket be
cause he believed it to be for the beat In
terests of the policyholders.
- "Since I went with the company I hsve
been much hounded and abused by persons
and by the press. I am seeking a vindica
tion In the election or the administration
Wcket. Tha law required nia to put it In
the field."
Hladniaa Coatradleta Peabody. '
At the night session Colonel Blscoe Hind
man of Louisville, .the deposed g-ntral
agent of the Mutual Life Insurance com
pany for Kentucky und Tennessee, waa
the pilnclpul witness. Ite told of several
conferences and had rr ad a number of let
I lers exchanged before his discharge. Mr.
I Hlndman said" he was asked to support the
I administration ticket and to write a let-
trr affirming such action. This he declined
to do. He wss then called to New York
and told he must either affirm or retire
from the company, Mr. Hlndman said he
considered tha Mutual Life Insurance com-'
pany a safe company, but he could not ap
prove the McCurdy trustees.
: .Herbert N. Felt of New York, recently
manager of the company in New Yoik
City, gave testimony along similar lines.

he met the4' venmftn in Lincoln." The 1
women's parents ore separated accord
ing to her statement, but her mother is at
Hanover, Knn.1, tip faiujy . home. Potts
told his friend recently that he was trying
to get rid.af her j' that he went to her
mother a monta ajto and he supposed he
was rid of hot, Jul she tame bac-k. He
nlso had told O'Hara only Monday evening
when the woman had called on Potts at his
office In Omaha that he. Potts, thought
she was losing iier. mind- The woman says
Potts had promised to marry her nnd lh.it
It was on this ground their criminal case
was settled.
Identifies the TUtol.
O'Hara went to rftuncll Bluffs as soon as
he heard of the tragedy and examined the
pistol found in the room and with which
the shot evidently was fired. He Identified
it ss the one Potts carried when they were
roommates. The woman admitted It was
Potts', and that it dropped out of his
pocket Monday night when he came In sick
and She . put it nnd hlw Into bed.
O'Hara said tho chief fault of. his friend
was he would gamble. The woman claims
he had borrowed $75 from her Monday. The
police regard the woman, from letters from
other men found In her possession, as a
grafter. They also regard this as a c!ejr
case of murder.
Incidentally Potts carried a $0ou twenty
year endowment policy with the Penn Mu
tual Insurance company. After the tragedy
the woman remarked to a policeman:
"Of course, I am not his legally married
wife, hut we have lived together for a long
time. He carried some Insurance, and I
suppose I will have some trouble to col
lect that."
The policeman readily admitted that he
thought the same thing.
Tot's Family Notified.
Potts came to Omaha years sgo from
Philadelphia, ' where his parents still re
side. It developed wheri he applied for a
position that the young man had come
west without ' the consent of his parents,
and for a time he was hsrd pressed for
funds before securing a position. He at
first secured sn opening with the Western
Union Telegraph compariy and afterward
went Into the Burlington offices, where he
remained until he' tok his' last position with
the Hynes Grain company.
A telegram was 'sentto the Potts home
In Philadelphia Tuesday by Patrick Hynes
announcing the death of the young man.
A reply waa received' Immediately, asking
that tho remains Be'forwarded as soon ss
possible, and this will be attended to by

PARIS, Oct. 16. M. Thomson, the min
ister of marine, has received an official
dispatch from 'the navat .commandant at
Bixerta confirming the sinking of the sub
marlife Lutl.n... Tb message says.:.. .'. v.r
"The submarine', Litn. while exercising
off the ''Jetties, disappeared front the' vie
of the accompanying lug. Search and drag
ging ' operations were begun Immediately
and resistance waa felt at a depth of 130
feet near the place where the Lutin sank."
Boat Carried Foarteen Men.
. BISERTA. Tunis, Oct. 16 Tho French
submarine I.utln left this port this morning
for plunging experiments. Blgnula re
ceived at 10 o'clock tonight reported Its
disappearance. . Two torpedo bouts and
three tugs have gone out In seorch of the
submarine. No further news has been
received.
It now apears almost certain according
to news received at a late hour tonight
that the crew of the Lutln lias suffered a
fate similar to that which overtook the
crew of the submarine Farradet here lust
year. The crew of the Lutin numbered
fourteen men, under command of Lieu
tenant Phoepen.
Admiral Bellue,- commander of the Tunis
naval division, who was on board a tug. j
returned at a late hour tonight and said
that owing to the heavy seas and the ob- j
Scurlty It waa Impossible to continue sal- t

torpedo boats, however, will remain through
the night near the place where the Lutin
made Its final plunge. One of these boats
reports thst Its drag encountered re
sistance as though a vessel were lying at
the bottom.' The salvage steamers, belong
ing to this port, which are at present ab
sent to assist In raising a French schooner
wrecked on the coast, will return In the
morning and participate in the work.
The British consul general here proposed
to the French resldtnt general to telegruph
to the British admiralty at Malta for
salvag asiMance. This' offrr ' was ac
cepted and powerful salvage apparatus
will at once be sent to the scene of tin:
catastronhr.'
Fear Similar lllaaaters.
The reported loss of the Lutin recalls
the catastrophe to the Ki't-ncU submarine
boat Farfardet, July 16. Wi. at the entrance
to the port of Sidi AhdalUh. Tunis. Com
mandant Roller of the Farfadet noticed,
at the moment of plunging, thai one of the
doors was not closed properly und rushed
tu try to adlust It. He was too late, how
ever, and the boat sank. Fourteen men
perished.
On March is. 19o4, the British submarine
A. 1, was run down by a steamer while
submerged near Portsmouth. All Its crew
was lost.
On February 6, the British subma
rine A. t sunk off Qucenstown, onl one
of Its crew being saved.
A third British submarine sank off . Ply
mouth Juno I. lfJOS, after an explosion on
board. Fourteen of Its crew were killed.
