:iO! THE TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL, FRIDAY EVENING, -FEBRUARY 17, 1905. pYDEQfCTED. Isr Vice-President of Equitable y Life Insurance Company. Giver of Famous $100,000 Din- ner at Sherry's Wins. JUS RISE WAS RAPID. At Age of 30 He Controls Use of $2,000,000,000. Ily de Is Closely Associated With Ilarriman and Rockefeller. New York, Feb. 17. James W. Alexander and James Hyde were re-elected president and first vice president respectively of the Equit fcbl'e Life Assurance society at the ad journed meeting of the directors Khursday. All the other officers whose terms had expired were re-elected. A resolution was adopted recom mending that policy holders be given the right to vote for. directors and a ommittee which includes President Alexander and Vice President Hyde was appointed to carry out this step, which is practically the policy of mutualization advocated by President Alexander. The results outlined were reached after a protracted session which was marked at times by considerable feel ing:. Friends of Vice President Hyde were disposed to view the outcome as Sl victory for their side, but in other quarters the result was regarded as a general compromise in which the con tending factions met half way. That Mr. Hyde had a majority of the directors with him, however, was uex'er in doubt. His election to the chairmanship of the executive and financial committee was 'regarded as eigrllicant in this connection. The solution of the society troubles was largely due, it is understood, to the conciliatory methods employed by Senator Depew and Jacob H. Schiff. Contrary to report Mr. Schiff had not arrayed himself on either side and wis among those who favored mutual ization. " James Hazen Hyde, who is known s the giver of the famous $100,000 fancy dress ball at Sherry's, at which the actress Rejane danced the "can can" on one of the onyx tables, was SPked, at the age of 29, to give up his T'ace of honor in the company found ed by Henry Baldwin Hyde, his father, because, according to the peti tion of the officeholders In the com rany, "his re-election as vice presi dent and acting president in the ab sence of the president, with all the powers he has exercised, would be most prejudicial to the welfare and progress of the society and the con nervation of the trust funds held for the benefit of our policey holders." - His "prominence in various ways and his acts as vice president" are, the petitioners declare, such as to creat" misgivings as to the conservation of the society's management and to in jure its business. They asked that th rower to elect a board of directors be transferred from the stockholders to the policyholders, each holder of a $5,000 policy to have one vote. - The intense situation which developed In the directorate of the Kquitable Life Assurance society again has served to call attention to the young man who has remarkable power In nearly two score of the greatest corporations in the country, but of whose life little save on the social and ilterary side generally Is known. James H. Hyde he is less than 30 years old is standing today like a rock In the path of his associates in the great Kquitable society, who would take the voting power away from the directorate and give it to the policy holders. He is a man of varied talents, who in a comparatively few years has developed success along many lines. With the great fortune left to him, Ms mother, and his sister by his father, Henry B. Hyde, founder of the Equita ble society, he has had advantages that few men enjoy, but he always has put THINK IT OVER. Something You Can See in Any Res 4 . taurant or Cafe. A physician puts the query: Have you never noticed in any large res taurant at lunch or dinner time the large number of hearty, vigorous old men at the tables: men whose ages run from 60 to 80 years; many of them bald and all perhaps gray, but none of them feeble or senile? ' Perhaps the spectacle is so common irs to have escaped your observation or Comment, but neverthless it is an object lesson which means something. If you will notice what these hearty old fellows are eating you will observe that they are not munching bran crackers nor gingerly picking their way through a menu card of new fa-ngled health foods; on the contrary they seem to prefer a juicy roast of beef, a properly turned loin of mutton, 1 and even the deadly broiled lobster is not altogether ignored. . The point -of all this is that a vig orous old age depends upon good di gestion and plenty of wholesome food, and not upon dieting and an endeavor to live upon bran crackers. There is a certain class of food eranks who seem to believe that meat, coffee and many other good things pre rank poisons, but these cadaverous, Flckly-looking individuals are a walk ing condemnation of their own theor ies. The matter in a nutshell is that if the stomach secrets the natural di gestive juices in sufficient quantities any wholesome food will be promptly digested; if the stomach does not do to, and certain foods cause distress, one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets after each meal will remove nil difficulty, because they supply just what every weak stomach lacks, pep Bin, hydro-chloric acid, diastase and nux. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not act upon the bowels, and in fact are rot strictly a medicine, as they act elmost entirely upon the food eaten, digesting it thoroughly, and thus gives 6. much-needed rest and giving an ap petite for the next meal. - Of people who travel nine out of ten use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, knowing them to be , perfectly safe to use at any time and also having found out by experience that they are a safeguard against indigestion in any form, and eating, as they have to, at all hours and all kinds of food, the traveling public for years have pinned their faith to Stuarts Tablets. All druggists sell them at 50 cents frtr full-sized packages, and any drug gists from Maine to California, if his Opinion were asked, will say that Stu art's Dyspepsia Tablets is the most popular and successful remedy for any Stomach trouble. them to good use and generally is re spected in the business world for his personal qualifications and ability, as he is liked in the social world for his charm of manner, good taste, and un bounded liberality in entertainment. To the world generally Hyde is better known for the magnificence of his pri vate entertainments than for his ac complishments as a business man. His recent costume ball at Sherry's which is said to have cost him $100,000, is a sample of the social entertainment of which he is extremely fond and which he amply can afford to give when the whim strikes him. The world at large knows him, too, for his feats at coach ing, and his unceasing interest in pro moting the French language and French literature in this country, a work for which he was decorated with the red ribbon cf the Legion of Honor by the French government several years ago. Hyde is a Harvard man and has trav eled extensivelv. He was a great stud ent as a young man, being particularly interested in French history and the French language. He carries his love for things French into his daily life his clothing, his hats, his shoes, anu even his beard being the j?TenenieM thiners to be seen In all New York. He is president of the Federation de 1' Alli ance Francaise, nas lounaea r rem-n clubs all over the country, personally promoted tours of celebrated French lecturers in America, and arranged for the placing of a number of French students in American universities. Hyde is believed to be ambitious some time to represent his country at Paris, but he still is much too young a man to be thought of in the capacity of an ambassador. Pirector in Fifty Institutions. According to the published records Mr. Hyde is a member of the board of directors of nearly fifty well known financial institutions. Among them are the Mercantile Trust, Equitable Trust, j Lawyers' Mortgage companies of New York; the Commercial Trust ana Frank lin National of Philadelphia; Mercantile Safe Deposit of New York, Security Safe Deposit of Boston, and Missouri Safe Deposit of St Louis. These, with the Mercantile Trust company. United States Mortgage Trust company, and Fifth Avenue Trust company of New York;the Central Realty and Bond com pany. Fidelity Trust company of Phil adelphia, and the Fidelity Trust com pany and Union National bank of New ark: Union County Trust company of Elizabeth, and the Essex County Trust company of East Orange, are included in the Equitable Life-Mutual Life-Bank of Commerce groups. In addition to them must be included the First National bank affiliations. First National of Chicago. Chase, Lib erty, and Astor National of New York, the Manhattan Trust company of New York, and the New York Life Insurance company. Apparently nowhere else in the world is such a huge dominating financial interest shown. Controls Some of Largest Banks. The Equitable's relations with the Mutual Life Insurance company are especially close and with it controls the National Bank of Commerce of New York, one of the two largest banks in the country .and which has capital, sur plus, and deposits of $189,000,000. These two insurance companies and the Na tional Bank of Commerce form the cen ter of a financial web of banks and trust companies at various cities which has assets and deposits of more than a billion dollars. Then there are the In timate relations with the First National bank of New York and its affiliations, the so-called "Morgan bank." Influence Over $2,000,000,000. Each of these great banks and the First National of Chicago have what may be called interchangeable direc torates, and the Equitable or Equitable officials own stock in all of them. In the Morgan First National is found New York Life Insurance company in fluence as well, so that the two groups may be regarded as having an influence over $2,000,000,000 of invested capital in which a dominating inspiration goes back to that $51,000 nominal value, the controlling interest of the Equitable owned by young- Hyde. Hyde rower in Financial "World. Hyde's control of a nominal value of $51,000 stock in the Equitable Life thus dominates interests which affect $2,000,- 000.000 worth of invested capital. The $100,000 capital stock of the Equitable controls $478,000,000 of assets, represent ing cash securities. Fourteen shares of the stock of the Equitable were offered for sale at pub lic auction in New York last November and were bought in by the owner at $3, 000, thirty times the par value. As the stock pays only 7 per cent the return at $3,000 for a $100 share would be only one-fifth of 1 per cent. It would be hard to guess what would be bid for control of the Equitable when all it represents is considered. Less than six months ago tiyae, it is saia, was offered $15,000,000 for his $51,000 of cap ital stock. Rumor went so far as to attribute the offer to both the Standard Oil and Gates interests. If control had been sold for $15,000,000 the dividend re turn would have amounted to only one fiftieth of 1 per cent. "Side Lines" of Equitable the "Stake." The stake in the control of the Equit able is not the management of the life in surance business alone, but the vast financial power which comes from the company's control of certain banking in stitutions and its influence in others. In New York city it owns a majority of the stock of the Mercantile Trust com pany. This concern has deposits of $76.- L,m,0?. As in tue h.quitaoie society, Air. Hyde is vice president of the Mercantile. fie is also vice president of the Equitable Trust company, which is controlled by the Life Assurance society. This trust company has $tl.377.C deposits. Com bined, their Jeposits are over jml.OOO.OGO. Aerain. the Kquitable owns 45.on& shares of the National Banic of Commerce, with deposits of $191 ,000.000. The total share capital of this bank is 250.000 shares. The Ktiu'uable has almost a quarter interest in th institution. In St. Louis the Equitable controls the Missouri Safe Deposit company. In Chi cago it owns 2,400 shares of the stock of the First National bank, while J. B. For gan, president of the First National, is a director of the Kquitable. Scattered in different cities, the Kquit ahle has an interest in twenty banks, trust companies, and other banking in stitutions. It bus a small interest in the Bank f Montreal. Witile- not having a controlling interest in any of the laree industrial concerns, still in the Consolidated Gas company of New York it owns stock of the par value of $1,121,500. It is a large holder of the stock of the Manhattan Elevated, New York Central, Union Pacific, and Penn sylvania. The value of the real estate holdings of the society is over $36.S),0i. The real estate in New York alone, includinc the Kquitable building, is $20,6.215. In Paris anil Berlin it owns office buildings, an-1 in Boston. Philadelphia, St. Louis and other towns there are twelve different office buildings valued at $15,950,000. James H. Hyde has within the last yenr or two had his name associated frequent ly with Harriman- Rockefeller interests. Control of the Equitable, it is presumed, is highly desired by these people, and the course of the present controversv would indicate the fear on the part of the man agement, other than Mr. Hyde and one or two friend", that the control would piss to the interests mentioned. It will reauily be seen that SOI.IXX) par value of the capital slock of the Equitable society carries a controlling interest in the bank ing institutions mentioned and a large influence in eighteen or twenty other banking corporations.

Cures a Wire's Debility After Malaria, a Husband's Rheumatism, a Daughter's Nervous Pros tration. The claim of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to be a genuine household remedy is based on the fact that they make the blood sound and the nerves strong and so overcome a variety of diseases. "I have recommended Dr. -Williams' Pink Pills to many people," said Mrs. Gossett, "because I have seen such good results, time after time, right in mv own familv. There are three of us who do not need to take anybody's word on the subject, for own experi ence in the past ten years has taught us how well they deserve the praise given them by so many others. "It was just about ten years ago that I first read about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, in a newspaper article which gave the testimony of some woman who had been cured by them. Her symptoms were so much like mine that I thought I would try them, and I then bought my first box. "I was at that time all run down in health, I was weak, nervous and with out ambition. I couldn't walk any distance on account of shortness of breath and palpitation of my heart, and I had no appetite. I had been doctoring all summer for malaria and stomach trouble. Everybody thought I was going into consumption, as my mother had died of that disease. "Thanks to Dr. Williams Pink Pills, I am now alive and hearty. I began to improve as soon as I began to take them. The first box roused up my appetite, so I got three more boxes, and when those had been taken I was a we!i woman. I always take a few as a tonic every spring and fall, and I have found them of great bene fit just before and after confinement. Everyone wonders how I keep so well and am able to care for my home and six children without help. Dr. Wil liams' Pink Pills explain it. "My oldest girl's health began to fail when she was about fourteen, as the result of too close application to her school work. She was nervous, com plained of sharp pains in her head, would get deathly sick and have to leave the school room to get fresh air to revive her. I gave some pills to her. She took only a few boxes, but they cured her troubles and caused her to develop into a perfect picture of health. Then my husband took them for rheumatism and found that they would cure that too. So you see we have all got great good from using them and that is why we rec ommend them to others." Mrs. Minnie B. Gossett lives at Uhrichsville, Tuscarawas Co., Ohio, and is well known, as she has resided in the same neighborhood for more than thirteen yrears. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all druggists everwhere. They have cured other diseases also, such as anaemia, neu ralagia, partial paralysis, irregularities and all forms of weakness in women. They have also cured the most stub born cases of dyspepsia. They agree with the most delicate stomachs and rapidly strengthen them. They are indispensable for growing girls. KAISER ACCEPTS. Will Be Made LL. T. by Vniversity or Pennsylvania. Berlin, Feb. 17. Emperor William will accept the degree of doctor of laws from the University of Pennsyl vania. It will be conferred, upon him in Absentia, February 22, at the same time that it is bestowed upon Presi dent Roosevelt. Instructions have been cabled to Baron von Speck Sternburg, the German ambassador, to represent the emperor. This is the first instance so far as known in which a reigning sovereign has taken an American university degree. Charles Custis Harrison, provost of the univer sity, wrote to Ambassador Tower a few days ago, saying the university would be pleased to bestow the degree of doctor of laws upon the emperor in recognition of the exchange of American and German professors. Mr. Tower had the opportunity of telling the emperor that the university is one of the oldest and one of the most re spectable American institutions and that it had conrerrea tne same degree July 4, 1783, upon George Washing ton. The emperor said he appreciated the distinction and accepted the honor with pleasure. A Conductor Sues the Orient 'Wichita, Kan., Feb. 17. Edward H. Looselv of this city has filed sut in the district court against the Kansas; City, Mexico & Orient Railway com- j pany and the Kaw Valley Construction ! company for $35,000 damages. It is; probably the first damage suit for per- j sonal injury to be .filed against the; Orient company.
