s PENSION MUTUAL LIFE
s
ftntlnntd from Taie One
fcut Lyndon D. Wood, the president, assured
hlra they did and made sworn nrildavlt to
Uttt effect.
It has recently been reported to the
vsmna Ledobb that all or a majority of
these bonds did not belong: to the Pension
t.tfe insurance Company, but were obtained
from II. It uottchcrty & Co., Investment
brokers, I Wall street. New York, In cx
eharuje for certain notes Illegally Issued un
der a. contract with the makers of these
notes that they would never be called upon
tq make the notes good and that when
Dougherty & Co. attempted to collect on
these notes and found on account of this
agreement they could not enforce collec
tion, they demanded a return of the securi
ties. This demand was complied with after
'ult to recover had been entered In the
United States District Court, of Pittsburgh.
The notes were returned to tho Pension Mu
tual lit fa and the bonds were returned to
Dougherty & Co.
Mr. Wood waa seen last Friday. He' did
not deny this transaction, but said that
these securities were replaced by others,
b.ut did not state what these particular
securities were or where they came from,
er what consideration was given for them.
"Por some reason another examination of
tfce Pension Mutual Life was ordered by the
Insurance Department within the last few
toys. This examination was completed on
Thursday last and the result was forwarded
to the department at llarrlaburg.
, Today's action through the Attorney Gen
ral'a otnee resulted, and the court will
be asked to wind up the affairs of the
1 oempany.
" To grasp the full significance ot all that
Km behind the alleged condition of the
Pension Mutual Life and Its relation to the
Consolidated In fitment Company It will
be, necessary to go back to 190S. the year
immediately following the New York In
surance fraud Investigation.
Prior to that time there were ohly about
tarty old line legal reserve life Insurance

the manipulation of the assets find funds
In syndlcnto operations threw n glamour
over the poavlbllltlos In the business, with
the rciult that since thnt tlmo moro thnn
200 new life Insurance rompanles have
been created In the United States by the
sale of about $80,000,000 In capital slock,
largely through misrepresentation and from
which tho public wero Induced to expect
unheard-of profits.
Tho result In a majority of cases hne
been disastrous.
Many of these companies hfte gone out
of existence, othera are still holding out,
some of them hoping nKiiln.it hope that they
will be nbsorbed by the liiKger and stronger
concerns, whllo still others lire In n good
healthy condition and apparently well man
aged. Tho Pension Mutual Life In composed of
a consolidation of a few of these small
companies, but tho method of acquiring
these companies In the usutl manner "as
apparently too slow for Lyndon D Wood, so
he organized tho Consolidated Securities
Company.
Thla Is n Delaware company; that is, It Is
operated under a charter taken out In the
.State of Delaware, which permits a wide
range In operations. It has a capital stock
of (5,000,000. A prospectus of this company
states that It has been organized for tho
purpore of acting us the legul medium neccs
sary for tho consolldut on of these smaller
Insurance compannlo, and as the source
through which the benefits to be gained by
the reform may properly bo administered
and distributed.
The prospectus goes oii to state that It
will acquire tho asRetn and Insurance In
force of these different companies cither by
direct purchase or through the exchange
ot Its own securities, etc.
AIISC-RHINO COMPANIES
Accompanying this prospectus la a list of
the corporations It Is proposed to absorb,
about eighty altogether, with figures In
tended to show tho enormous savings In
management after this consolidation and
tho consequent enormous resulting dll
dends, amounting to forty-secn per cent
on the outstanding stock of the Consoli
dated Investment Company, which Is to be
the holding company and "through which
the bcneflta gained by the reform may be
properly udmlnlstcred and distributed "
Hack of this announcement lies a talc
ot politics of Jugglery and of high finance
which for methods und exploitation Is only
equqalled by .the Storey cotton bubble, the
careor of Cassle Chadwlck or the revela
tions of Insurance corruption uncovered by
tho "Hughes" Investigation of tho big New
York life Insurance companies In 190S,
MIL WOOD'S CLAIM
In connection with the affair there Is a
peculiar Irony In the statement made by
Lyndon D. Wood to a representative of
the Kveninq LicnacR, that he was an
active assistant to Charles 12. Hughes, tho
Republican candidate for President, In his
Investigation of the New York Insurance
companies, and that In recognition of these
services Mr. Hughos, when Governor of
the Stnto of New York, offered him the posi
tion of Insuranco Superintendent ot tho
State
The published records of the "Hughes"
Investigation do not mention the name of
Lyndon D. Wood, and public records around
that time ahow that Mr. Hughes offered the
position of Insuranco superintendent to
Frederick D. Wallace, a general agent of
the Home Life Insurance Company of New
York, against whose appointment the com
panies and their agents raised such a storm
of protest, that Mr. Hughes was relieved
from the unpleasant situation by tho "vol
untary" withdrawal of his name by Mr.
Wallace Subsequently William V. Hotch
klss was nppolnted by Governor Hughes.
