It Is expected that the other will recover. although Its condition Is still quite serious. FINANCIER. Jacob H. Sehiff, who declared at the insurance investigation that directors iu big enterprises no longer direct, but arc mere dummies, is one of New York's most powerful financiers. Born In Germany In 18-1", Mr. Sehiff cam# to America at the age of eighteen and is now the hem! of Kuhu. Loeb & Co. He devotes much time and money to charitable work. When Hie president left the officers' quarters he shook hands with the guard of honor, composed of twelve Confederate veterans, which had accompanied the party to the army post. The guard rode iu pairs, each Confederate by the side of a I'nlou veteran. Third.—That the business of the large companies has become so enormous and their affairs so complex, that It Is "a physical and mathematical Impossibility" to figure what each jwlicy holder or group . of policy holders should receive in dividends. The scalding that will result fatally occurred this morning In YatesvlUt. The child's name Is Annie Cecilia, and It is three years old. This morning the little one's mother was washing and left a pall of water on the stove until It boiled, after which she placed it on a low bench. She then went into The yard to hang some clothes. While she was gone the child reached for the pail of wafer and drew It over on herself. Her body was terribly scalded, the flesh hanging off In some portions. The mother was attracted by the terrible screams of the child and hurried Into the house. Dr. Jennings was called and found the child barely alive. It Is almost impossible that she can recover. Her entire body and arms and logs were as one large blister.COSTLY UMBRELLA SUIT DATE OF LAYING OF CORNER STONE. Would Limit Business. TWENTY .fHiitaONS WEfcE INJURED Heard the Rebel Yell.

The remains were removed to the family home, where the heartbroken parents received them. The ijeath of the young man is an especially hard blow to the parents, owing to the fact that another son, Milton VanAuken, was killed at Coxton only two months ago, Milton was also employed as a hostler In the round house.

Born In Germany In 18-1", Mr. Sehiff cam# to America at the age of eighteen and is now the hem! of Kuhu. Loeb & Co. He devotes much time and money to charitable work. When Hie president left the officers' quarters he shook hands with the guard of honor, composed of twelve Confederate veterans, which had accompanied the party to the army post. The guard rode iu pairs, each Confederate by the side of a I'nlou veteran. Third.—That the business of the large companies has become so enormous and their affairs so complex, that It Is "a physical and mathematical Impossibility" to figure what each jwlicy holder or group . of policy holders should receive in dividends. The scalding that will result fatally occurred this morning In YatesvlUt. The child's name Is Annie Cecilia, and It is three years old. This morning the little one's mother was washing and left a pall of water on the stove until It boiled, after which she placed it on a low bench. She then went into The yard to hang some clothes. While she was gone the child reached for the pail of wafer and drew It over on herself. Her body was terribly scalded, the flesh hanging off In some portions. The mother was attracted by the terrible screams of the child and hurried Into the house. Dr. Jennings was called and found the child barely alive. It Is almost impossible that she can recover. Her entire body and arms and logs were as one large blister.COSTLY UMBRELLA SUIT DATE OF LAYING OF CORNER STONE. Would Limit Business. TWENTY .fHiitaONS WEfcE INJURED Heard the Rebel Yell.
