Phone Doug. 29 Forty-thre life Insurance companies have contributed data to a mcdlco-actu-arlnt lnvctlgatIon ot mortality among women, particularly insured spinsters, married women with other than their husbands as beneficiaries, and widows and divorced women. "The expected mortality," says the Chicago Record llerald, "was calculated by the modlco actuarial mortality table, which reprc- ' sents the average experience of the forty- three companies. Tho ratio ot actual to expected deaths among spinsters was Rl per cent, but among married women with husbands as beneflctarcs was 126 per cent. The mortality among widows and di vorced women was about midway be tween that of spinsters and married women. The table shows that the mor tality In the early policy years at age of entry IB to 20 Is distinctly heavier among women than among men. "Tabulated by plans of Insurance, the ratio of actual to expected deaths was 121 per cent under ordinary llfo policies, 100 per cent on limited payment and $0 per cent under endowment policies. The pro' portion of endowment Insurance taken by spinsters was 61 per cent and by married women 28 per cent. 'The statistics do not prove that spin sters as a class afe bettor risks than mar ried women, but merely that the spinsters who were Insured were a better class than the married women Insured. The Investigators made a comparison of the causes ot death among men and women, on a ratio per 10,000 exposed to risk. The figures show that the death rata Is greater among men than women for typhoid fever, appendicitis, cirrhosis of the liver, suicide and accident. The death rate Is greater among women for cancer and other malignant tumors. "Another table shows the causes of death among overweights, underweights and persons of normal weight. Consider ing those who Insured at ages between 30 and 44. the death ratio from tuberculosis of the lungs for overweights Is 1.8, against 16.5 among underweights. The death rate from diabetes Is only 2.3 among under weights, against 1.4 among overweights."

This sum Is about one-third of the total cash awaiting claimants for whom the scorch was Instituted. Three years ago expert accountants dis covered on the books of the Connecticut Mutual Ufe Insurance company at Hart ford, Conn., almost $1,000,000 for which no owners had appeared for more tnan a decade. The owners had been holders of nonpar tlclpntlng life Insurance who had per mitted their policies to lapse. When these policies had lapsed they became worth a certain sum, but tho Insured, If alive, usually had forgotten his rights, or, If ho was dead, the heirs never had heard of the Insurance policy. Tho company decided to return this money to the rightful owners if they could bo found. The search went on for a year. First the Insured was written; most of the letters were not answered, Then tho friend named on tho policy and the physician who signed the origi nal health examination were addressed Several thousand policyholders or heirs were found In this way. The search had gone far enbugh to show that tho middle west hod been tho Jumping off place for most of the miss ing persons.

Although a peremptory writ of man damus out of Judge Troup's court was served upon Mayor Hbctor and tho po lice board Saturday commanding" tho board to assemble forthwith arid purge the town of the slot machine and gam bling evils, it made no difference in the general conduct of affairs In, South Omaha Saturday night. . According to Mayor Hoctor, nothing was done because he'intends to reopen the case Monday. Hoctor says he was not represented by counsel, although As sistant City Attorney S, I Winters ac tually brought the case up in court. Tno city attorney's office, however, feys the board mado no return and the city at torney's office could not see Its way clear to make any shewing contrary to the petition for' the writ Judae Troun Issued the writ and It was served Saturday evening. The board held a hurried conference and Mayor Hoctor, In an automobile, accompanied Jake Rothschild, one of the alleged owners ot the machines, to Omaha. Upon the re turn of Hoctor, he totd a Bee reporter that he had retained private counsel to reopen the case Monday morning. "Whom have you retained?" waa asked. "I have retained Judge Ben Baker," returned Hoctor. "I was not represented at the former hearing. "In the meantime," suggested the re porter, "what of the writ which says to assemble forthwith?" "We have done nothing," said the mayor. "Until the case Is reopened the writ is 'non es' "anyway, that's the way the mayor pronounced it. It looks as though South Omaha were "going to air some more of its troubles In the court. The slot machines have been in vogue here for more than a year. Many complaints have been made with out effect. Former councilman jonn Vana, who fought the machines and In troduced an ordinance against them, was defeated for re-election at the last elec tion. City attorney Henry C. Murphy drew an ordinance making the use of gambling or vending machines an offense against the municipal statutes. It was passea unanimously by the council, but Mayor Hoctor vetoed the measure. Since that time tho machines have been running wide open in South Omaha until P. C. Caldwell went into court and asked for a mandamus compelling the fire and police board to enforce the law in regard to the slot machines and gambling de vices. The writ was granted and served yesterday. Judge Troup said Saturday night that the writ would stand and be in full force until the case had been reopened. He did not say that the case would be re- opensd. 'That writ stands," said the judge, as h concluded his Interview. Whether or not the board will be haled Into court for contempt cannot be said at this time. City Treasurer V. J. Martin, who re fused to permit the mayor to use back taxes to bolster up funds that have been depleted during the year, Is to be cited into court by Mayor Hoctor, who says ho will force Martin to use the money ac cording to Hoctors plan. Martin told the mayor that he would have to gel a court order certainly before he would allow the money that should go into the interest and finking fund to reduce the city debts and lower taxes to be used to rtop holes In overdrawn funds for the current yar "I am unuer band," Martin told Hoctor, "and I Intend to guard that money as I understand the law and in strict ac cord with the advice of the city's lega' department" Hoctor said he would have to get private counsel if the city legal department continued to back up Martin's views. Hoctor sat'd he expected to hold a conference with City Attorney Henry C. Murphy. "I lntond to cite Treasurer P. J, Martin Into court on next Monday morning said Hoctor.1 lt.a -reporter ' last night tVVbon asked about the 'matter City Treasurer Martin said: "The mayor told mo about his intentions this afternoon. They were very Interesting but not convincing. 1 am no politician, but tho city has over $2,000,000 of debt and more than J HO, 000 In bonds coming due In 1915. Tho interest and sinking fund Is designed to meet that need when it arises. We have only 135,000 in the fund now and we ought to have $100,000. 'I told the mayor ot this but he said we could renew the bonds. We will have to lay them off sometime or go into bankruptcy. It means an Increase of taxes every year If we pursue the policy of using up the funds set aside In the appropriations and then reaching Into the back taxes for more. If the court civs to do what the mayor asks all right. But until that time I am going to do what I think the law Intended for the benefits of the taxpayers. lvam taking no step without tho advice of the coun sel provided by the people ot this city as advisers of tho city officials and I havw Instructed all my deputies ot my stana In the matter." , 1 .- LIFE INSURANCE ACCIDENT INSURANCE Elglityrivo Millions Assets.

With the exception of Morris and com pany, whose tax assessment was reduced iTB.OOO, all the big packers were left at their figures of a year ago. The Union Stock Yards waa given a raise of 130,000 over the county assessment The street railway company was kept at its old figures, J750.000. However, tho city at large was raised in valuation to 329,799,607, approximately as against $23,919,000 a year ago. Of this amount the greater bur den will be felt and the mill levy Wilt reach something above 12 mills, which Is a considerable increase over last year's mill levy. Yesterday was the big day for tho board, which, however, transacted Its business finally In a short space of time Mayor Hoctor called the CUdahy people first and C. W. Sears made a talk upon the depreciation ot packing houses )n general and Cudahy's In particular and the sadness of being taxed above par, Tom Alton, who used to work for a packing house, but Is president of the council, took up Mr. Sears remarks and amplified on the expense of keeping up a packing house. Then W. S. Selby rep resenting Swift and MorrlB, read a letter to the council and elaborated on tho decline ot cattle and the falling away of business for the packers and told how the county assessors- had accepted his plea. At this Juncture, It C.
