"THE UKUIilS INSURANCE.
Olie or the Ilarrisburg MutuaU Investigate
It.
The Reading Eagle says that Mr. Henry
llevertcr, general agent of the State
Capital Mutual aid association, of Harris
burg, was in Reading yesterday and made
a thorough investigation iute all the cir
cumstauccs attcudiug the insurance of
old Mrs. Gehris, and said it was the worst
case he had ever heard of. Mr. llover llever
tcr stated that the president of the State
Capital had told him that if affida
vits could be produced which would
tend te substantiate what was alleged, the
parties who had effected the insurance
would be arrested for conspiracy. Mr.
llevertcr left for Ilarrisburg early this
morning te confer with the officials of the
ceinpauy aud premised te return this
evening or te-morrow, when he would
promptly have the parties taken iute cus
tody. Last evening he visited Bcnja
mau Gehris, a seu of the deceased, who
first brought his father's case te the notice
of the public,aud took him and his wife, Re
becca Gehris, before Alderman Maxton,
where they made affidavit as te the physi
cal condition of Mr. Gehris immediately
before the insurance. They set forth that
the old maii was eighty-live years old, that
he had been sick for the past four or live
years, and unable te work during thai
time ; also, that he had been bed-ridden
for the past nine or ten months ; that he
was afllictcd with a complication of dis
eases, among them hemorrhage aud gan
grene, his tees being almost ready te drop
oil', aud that he was at death's deer when
insured, which was done without the con
sent of the old man or his children.
Mr. llevertcr has also ascertained that
the old man was insured for upwards of
$e0.000 in ether companies. The sum of
$5,000 is held by a man residing iu Bauins Bauins
tewn, the remainder by the two men who
accompanied Dr. Yergey te Daniel Gehris'
house. The case when fully developed,
Aldcrmau Maxteu says, will be one of the
most startling unearthed yet hew the
parties had agreed te recommend whisky
te tone up the old man's system, se as te
stimulate aud keep him alive long enough
te have the insurance clTectcd, as it was
feared he might die before the policy was
drawn up, and hew the men who had the
old man insured agreed even te have the
date of the policy set back if he should
die before it was drawn up. All these
facts will be mere fully developed when
llevertcr returns from Ilarrisburg with
instructions from the State Capital's offi
cers. Moravian Synod.

The Confemien Which Brandt aad Hum
mel Lett Behind Them.
Ouc year age Charles Drews, Frank
Stichter. Henry Wise, Israel Braudt and
Jesiah Hummel were hanged for the mur
der of Jeseph Rabcr iu the northern por
tion of Lebanon county, in order te
secure the insurance money ou his life
amounting te $11,000. An important
sequel has just been made public in the
confession of Brandt and Hummel, two
of the conspirators, who requested their
spiritual adviser, Rev Geerge F. Trabert,
and counsel, Colonel J. P. S. Gebin, net
te furnish the same for publication until
one year after their death. Brandt was
the hotel keeper at whose inn the conspira
tors met and conceived their scheme. He
charges that the project was breached by
Henry Wise, who effected the insurances
ou Rabcr' s life, and that Geerge Zechman,
who was tried aud acquitrcd, was the
most active one in carrying out what
Wise had planned. Brandt's reason
for requesting that his confession be with
held was that it implicated Zechman
and hence he desired a delay of a year in
its publication. Hummel states that Wise
was the instigator of the scheme and used
his utmost endeavors te interest ethers iu
the project. Zechman met Hummel at
Wise's house aud made arrangements for
the insuring of Raber and then working
him out of the way. Five persons had
insurances en Baiter's life and Drew was
the man selected te de the job. Zechman
and Wise sent Hummel te Drews' house
te erder the killing of Raber upon a cer
tain day, but he failed te find Drews at
home. On the next day Hummel went te
Brandt's and asked the latter whether
Drews would de the deed aud was told that
it would be done that week. Drews want
ed $1,500 for drowning Rabcr, but the
sum was considered tee high, aud Hum
mel felt that as far as he was concerned
the project was abandoned. Zechman,
the only one of the six conspirators who
escaped the law, five having suffered the
penalty of death, is new engaged in farm
ing in Upper Bern township, Berks county.

The Old (iuanl's (iiiim Turned Upen uar-
ueiu.
The following letter from cx-Picsidcnt
Grant te Senater Jenes, of Nevada, shows
that in the present contest between cx cx
Scnater Conkling and the president, Mr.
Conkling has the full sympathy and sup
port of General Grant. This letter te ex ex
Scnater Jenes contained one from the cx
prcsident te Mr. Garfield, which was de
livered te him personally by Senater Jenes.
Its contents are net known, but there can
be no denbtthat its purport is similar te
that of the letter te Mr. Jenes. That let
ter is as fellows :
" City ok Mexico, April 24, 1881.
" My Dear Senater I sec by the latest
despatches received here from the cap
ital of our country that the deadlock in
organizing the Senate is net yet broken,
and that nothing has been dene by the
president te allay the bitterness which
must be engendered by his most recent
appointments. When the first batch of
nominations for New Yerk was scut
in I was delighted. I believed
then the president had determined te rec
ognize the Republican party, and net a
faction. Bat his nominations of the next
day convinced me that the first act was
but a part of a deep laid scheme by some
body te punish prominent leaders for be
ing openly friendly te me. I cannot be
lieve that General Garfield is the author
of this policy. I eive him credit for be-
! ing tee big a man te descend te such
means ter tne puuisument ei men
who gave him a hearty isuppert in his
election and who are disposed te give him
the same support new, for the offence of
having had a former preference ter some
one else for the effiee which he new holds.
But Garfield is president and is responsi
ble for all the acts of the administration.
Conkling and Piatt are the chosen sena
tors from the great state of New Yerk,
and that, tee, against all the opposition of
an administration created by the same
party that elected them. This should
gire them, all the stronger claim te be
consulted iu the matter of appointments
in, their state. When it comes te filling
the most influential office in their state
without consulting tliese ?enatr it ix a
great slight, When he .selects lli.t most
offensive man te be found it. be
comes an insult aud ought te be re
sented te the bitter end. I sincerely Iieihj
the president will see this and correct his
mistake himself, and restore harmony te
the party. lie ewes, this te himself and te
these without whom he could net have
been elected. Nobody believes that he
could have carried the state of New Yerk
without the active support of her present
seuaters. Their passive support would
net have auswered. Without the state of
New Yerk General Garfield would net
new be president. His rewarding Robert Robert
eon is net only offensive te the New Yerk
Senators, but it is offensive te New Yerk
Republicans.
The ehauge of Uadeau ami Cramer, the
two appointments in which I felt a strong
personal interest, was very distasteful te .
me ; the llrst, because of our personal re
lations and my wish that he .should be
kept where hht office would support him
until he liuishcs some work he is engaged
upon, aud which he could de without in
terfering with his public duties. The
second, because .it was at the ex ex
pense of removing the son of my
old secretary of state, who prob
ably never had his superier cer
tainly never for moral worth in the de
partment. It is true Fish resigned. But
lie did this from a sense of honor, suppos
ing it te be the duty of representatives
abroad te give a new administration the
opportunity of sayiug whether they were
wanted or net. Very truly yours,
"U.S.Gkant.
