Is president."
Wood today insinuated that McCay and
Horter wero not possessed of entirely clean
hands In the transaction, and showed n pa
per which ho snld was a contract between
them nctlnV for tho Police Hcneflclary Asso
ciation and tho Pension Mutual I.lfo In
surance Company.
According to this paper, both tho asso
ciation officials knew of tho premiums to
be paid on tho policemen's lives, whereas,
Wood said, they have professed to havo
been cognizant only of receiving $100 from
an "unknown source" every tlmo n police
man died.
"ONLY TO OCT J100"
McCny said this Insinuation wns ridic
ulous, nnd that If ho signed tho paper It
waa on nccuunt of Colonel Whltecy'M rec
ommondatlon "Wo trusted Colonel White
Icy," ho said, "and were only Interested In
getting tho $100 -in each death. Wo know
nothing ubout other arrangements."
"Whlteloy nnd the Pension," snld Mr.
Wood, "entered Into this proposition only
nfter wo had given three months' study
to tho matter Wo ngrred to pay him flfty
per cent commission, which ho snld was
only ten per cent more than was paid to
him by another company which originally
Insured tho police for the benefit of their
families.
"Wo went over the entire ground, as we
thought. Wo learned from the homo ofTlco
of the other company that tho premium
paid by tho police association was only
$12,000 per month on $2000 policies, while
wo received 118,000 per month for $2500
policies.
CHAIlGEg FALSEHOOD
"Whlteloy supplied us with figures show
ing the ostensible death rate of the police
men allied with the beneficial assoclatlqn.
These, we learned nfterward, were wrong,
and It Is on that statement that we charge
fraud. We also went carefully over the
membership of the association and when we
found n largo number of the policemen were
on the retired list we charged as high as
$30 per month for tho premiums on tholr
policies.
"Naturally the figures of the mortality
we took for granted, as Whlteley'e repu
tation was such that we did not suspect
that ho would misrepresent things to us.
Then we thought that this money was going
to the policemen's families nnd that our
Insurance was the same form as taVen h
tho other company. We thought that the
police association was paying the premiums
and that the money was coming from tha
Individual membership.
