ance Companies to Time.
GERMAN COMPANIES MUST PAY
German Government Will Investigate
Status of German Insurance Com
panies Relative to San Fran
cisco Losses Must Pay.
SAX FRAN'CISCOi June 2i Frsnx
Bopp. the German consul in this city is
about to file an official report with his
government upon the insurance situation
here. In regard to the position of the
German companies involved here, he i
quoted as follows:
There is no doubt that the German
government has the right to control the
actions of all commercial companies in
corporated under the laws of Germany;
and where it can be demonstrated that
any insurance company is not acting
is empowered to bring it to reason.
"I am forwarding to the German gov
ernment my official report upon condi
tions in San Francisco and upon the in
surance situation. The government will
undoubtedly give its attention to the
situation and will not permit any insur
ance company that is able to meet its
obligations to e-cape them."
The German insurance companies do
ing business in this state are Aachen and
Munich, and Hamburg-Bremen, North
German of Hamburg, Prussian National.
Rhine and Moselle and Transatlantic.
The latter, it is said, has now ceased
to write insurance in California.

FRAUD IS ALLEGED.
CHICAGO, June 22. Allegations of
fraud are contained in a mysterious
bill in the United States Circuit Court
yesterday against the FUtglor Iron &
Steel Company of Chicago by Alfred S.
Costello, H. H. Costcllo, Harvey Cheney
and Robert Cheney, whose names do not
appear in the city directory. The bill

gregating HH1.000, is directed against
Harvev K. Flagler, who i named as
president of the company; Willis P.
Dickinson, trea-urer; W. R. Dickinson,
and others.
F-fforts to locate the defendants in
the case last night revealed the fact
that Mr. Flagler is not a resident but
was known iu Boston five year ago as
a promotor; that W. R. Dickinson sever
al his connection with the company
more than a year aao ami it is now the
belief that Franklin H. Head is presi
dent of the company; Mr. Head is in
New York on business, and that Mr.
Helmer is a member of Chicago law
firm.
According to the bill the Flagler Com
pany was incorporated in 1904 with a
capital stock of f5.000.000. It was to
buv. sell, bond, lease, and operate cer
tain mininff properties, and it is charged
that the defendants by the use of this
alleged company several year ago con
spired to defraud the complainants and
did defraud them of certain fund.

"Morning Astorian, Astoria.
Io the Editor: My some error in
transmission, a press dispatch from
Vienna, printed iu your paper June 12
stated that "threo thousand Christian
Scientists'' following a meeting in that
cit,y "made a demonstration against the
Hungiirlan ministry," breaking windows,
etc., and while the well-known peaceful
mission of Christian Science mnikes a de
niul of this iiuidvertant mis-statement
swtin almost unnecessary, I feel you will
neverthelesH be glad to publish a word
in coiTcetion.
"Christian Scientists appreciate the
excellent account of the. recent dedica
tory services of th new two million
dollar extenxion of the Mother, Ohurch
in Boston, which appeared in the Astor
ian of June 10th, und it was no doubt
due to this general interest of the press
in the fact that some 30,000 Christian
Bcientist were assembled in Boston at
that time, and to the further fact that
Christum Ncienc is truly a religion
which demonstrates its faith by good
works, that this reported "demonstra
tion" at Vienna was thus rnisorcdited.
'"Very truly yours,
"DAVID H. OtiDEN."
