Dick Oli ver, as president of the association, was tonßtmaster and there were ad dress i by Edward A. Woods, vice president of the National Life Under writers' Association, and E. J. Clark, of Baltimore, president of the Na tional Life Underwriters' Association. The scope of the organization has been enlarged to take in all of the Central Pennsylvania territory, and as such will constitute one of the most representative bodies of life insurance men in Pennsylvania. Mr. Woods in his address con demned the State tax on the gros& incomes of Insurance companies, ins that "Pennsylvania is furnishing itself with inmates of reformatories, orphanages and sweatshops thereby." "On every SI,OOO paid in deatli claims," said Mr. Woods, "the State levies a tax amounting to S7O, which would, otherwise, be distributed among widows and ( orphans. The United States charges life insurance com panies $13,000,000 every year for the privilege of protecting the destitute from want. It is because of this that our reformatories and orphanages are filled. Widows are forced to work in factories to provide for children who would be otherwise cared for by the distribution of this sum among policy holders." Mr. Woods urged the CeYitral Penn sylvania .association to use Its utmost endeavors to prevent any further legis lation of this character. Reading Directors Postpone Election; Tribute to Mr. Baer Special to The Telegraph Philadelphia, May 1. The question I of a successor to George F. Baer as the head of the Reading system of anthra- j cite coal and railroad properties was j everywhere discussed with deep Inter- j est in railroad and financial circles i yesterday, but the greatest confusion of views prevailed. Those whose personal beliefs or wishes counted for the most were caught absolutely unprepared by the suddenness of Mr. Baer's death, and remained sCilent. The directors met yesterday, but took no action on a suc cessor to the late president. A minute was adopted on the death of Mr. Baer. It was said more than once, how ever, that Mr. Baer would have no real successor, and hints were given that this might be taken literally, and not as a mere figurative reference to the difficulty of duplicating his exceptional ability. According to this opinion, which was credited where good infor mation should prevail, no one ever ugaln would be vested with the tre mondous power which the lato presi dent of the Reading Company wielded. Probably there wll be a division of power and separate executive heads for many of the Reading subsidarles. It was oven said that the two great divisions of the Reading business, an thracite coal mining and railroading, might be placed under separate heads, and that still a third person might be c-hosen to head the Reading Company, the holding corporation. Such an ar rangement, it WHS pointed out, W£uld IRREGULAR TENDENCY OF TRADING OVERCOME Missouri Pacific Recovered Strongly After an Early Set back in Wall Street; Bonds Were Steady By Associated Press New York, May 1. The irregular tendency of the early trading was overcome by the gradual development of strength, and prices were raise ! one to two and one-half points. Missouri Pacific recovered strongly after an early setback. The demand, while Varied, was most insistent for the stocks of Eastern roads, which will benefit by the increase in freight rates, should It be granted. New York Cen tral reflected the benefits expected from Its proposed consolidated, rising to 9:. Last week it sold below 87. The de cree of the courts upholding the spec ial dividend on Union Pacific caused a quick upturn of two and one-half points In that stock. Bonds were steady. Furnished by 11. W.
