McCurdy Life Insurance company, ready been before the mittee was again the wain wit BOSS, » Unfinished inquiry by Chief Inquis itor Hugles about the Hotel Grosvenor at Tenth street and Fifth agenue, own «d by the Mutual Life and ouce large ly patrouized by President MeCurdy apd his wife and by bis son-in-law, Louis A. Thebaud, aud Vice Presideny Granniss, brought forth a passage at arms between General Solicitor Beck of the Mutual and Chief lnquisitor Hughes, in which Chalrman Armstrong took a hand, and even McCurdy him self finally participated, siding with the committees agalast the aspersions of his own counsel. Beck was afraid that Mr Hughes' Inquiry might give the public the idea that the McCurdys had been utilizing their Influence in the Mutual Life to get reduced rentals in town, aud be imputed to Mr. Hughes a spirit of unfairness, Then Mr. Hughes made a ringing speech, in which he said that every wit ness who treated the committee cor dially would be treated in turn with the utmost respect, but that those whe were evasive would be treated with the contempt which their conduct mer ited, which sentiment was so loudly applauded by the large audience that Chairman Armstrong had to warn the auditors that any repetition of such a demonstration would result In their ex clusion hereafter A point of incidental Interest to those closely following the investigation was the news from Missouri that the speak er of the house of representatives for that state bad requested a delay in the proposed revoking of the New York Life lusurance company’s insurance in order that policy holders might take concerted action Senator W. W, Armstrong, chairman of the committee, scathingly rebuked R. A.

While Mr Beck was speaking he referred to Mr McCurdy as a man of. “unblemished reputation.” This was a signal for boots and cat calls and cries of “No!” “No!” from the gallery George J. Plunkitt, a telephone opera tor for LL. W. Lawrence & Co, was called. A voucher acknowledging the receipt of $001.15 “for legal expenses to February, 1905,” which was signed by the name of “George F.
