Ronatp R. Martin—Dr1rect 1
RONALD R. MARTIN, being produced, sworn and ex-
amined as a witness on behalf of the defendants,
testified as follows:
Direct Examination by Senator Hollingsworth.
Q.1. State your name, please. A. Ronald R.
Martin.
Q.2. Mr. Martin, what is your residence? A. It
is in Montclair, New Jersey.
Q.3. What is your connection with the Atlas In-
surance Company, Ltd.? A. United States manager and
member of its local board of directors.
Q.4. What was your connection with this company
in 1935 and 1936? A. The same, sir.
Q.5. You knew that a compromise of this case was
effected in May of 1935, did you not? A. I know there
was one, and I presume it was in May; it was about
that time.
Q.6. You were familiar, were you, with the terms
and provisions of that compromise agreement? A. Yes.
Q.7. You knew that a federal court decree was en-
tered thereafter, I believe in February of 1936? A. I
knew that one was about that time.
Q.8. Do you recall receiving a letter from, I believe,
the Subscribers’ Actuarial Committee, addressed to all
of the companies setting forth the terms and provisions
of that compromise? A. I undoubtedly do. I don’t re-
member specifically about it. I can answer your last
question more specifically, I just have that Missouri rate
circular of February 4, 1936.
Q.9. Mr. Martin, did you have any information
about a $100,000.00 fund being raised in May of 1935?
A. Absolutely not, sir.
Q.10. Did your first information as to that fund
come after the grand jury investigation in Kansas City?
A. I never even heard a suspicion there had been such
a thing until I happened to be talking to our attorney
here a week ago.
Q.11. Now, I believe your office received in 1936
1l per cent remittance out of the 30 per cent fund? A.
It did, sir.
Q.12. That was paid here in New York? A. It
was sir.
Ronatp R. Martrin—DIrRect
Q.13. Then apparently your office received a let-
ter from Mr. Schoen sometime prior to March 24, 1936,
Mr. Schoen being your manager in Chicago? A. Yes,
sir.
Q.14. Do you have the original of that letter of
March 24, 1936? I have before me a letter which ap-
pears to be a reply to that, but I don’t have the original
letter. A. I doubt, sir, if I have the original letter
here.
Q.15. Do you have a copy? A. I don’t believe I
have it with me, sir.
(A copy of a letter, handed to the reporter, was
marked for identification as ‘Defendants’ Exhibit 120,
EFM.”)
Q.16. I show you Defendants’ Exhibit 120, and I
offer that now in evidence, which letter purports to be
a copy of a letter written by a Mr. Barry, I believe it is.
A. t is correct, sir.
(Which said Defendants’ Exhibit 120, so offered in
evidence, having been previously duly marked, is in
words and figures as follows: )
New YORK
March 2th, 1936.
rther payment on the impoundings made up to April 30th, 1935 and represented
Ng of our premiums impounded to that date.
The premium figures used by the Trustee were $3,183.1;7, whereas
your letter of January 30th, this year, the amount that you had impounded
ith the State up to July 15th (which we assume ete gee the undeposited
premium collections to April 30th, 1935) was $,,98).61 and we are wondering
hich of the two sets of figures are correct.
Upon instructions from the representative of the Trustee we were
ed to return to the ee eg | a check in the amount of $2,159.17 representing
$ of the impoundings of $3,183.17. The check was made payable to C. R. Street,
gent, representing the Attorneys! share of. this recent payment.
Both the above items have been entered in our books here as a debit
nd credit to Branch Remittance; the payment of $4,750.17 should be earmarked and
eredited to "Missouri Impounded Premiums" as a further payment on account as above
tated, The amount of $2,159.17 should be earmarked and charged against "Missouri
Irpounded Premiums" with a notation that it represents Attorneys! fees.
Will you kindly check the above premiums quoted by the Trustee and
0 the amount quoted in your letter of January 30th, this year, and advise us
he correct figures.
Yours very truly,
4 RonaLp R. Martin—DIREcT
Q.17. Can you refer to the contents of that letter
and testify as to the matters related in the letter? A.
Yes, sir, I believe I can give you a clear cut statement as
to that.
The Special Master: Before you do that, let me read
this exhibit. (Said exhibit handed to the Master.)
Q.18. All right, just go ahead, Mr. Martin. A. It
is to this effect, sir, that on the morning of March 23,
1936—please don’t hold me down to the minutes or exact
dates; I am trying to give this story—I received a tele-
phone call from Mr. Haid. The exact conversation, of
course, I don’t remember, but it was to this effect; that
there was a rebate of 11 per cent of $43,183.47, for
which he had a check in hand, and he was sending it up
to me, and as there were some unadjusted expenses, or
whatever it was that he did say, that I cannot recall, that
he wanted a check drawn for 5 per cent of that amount,
which amounted to $2,159.17, to be issued in the name of
C. R. Street, Agent. On receipt of that telephone message
—this is the memorandum, sir, that I made. I have dis-
covered it since I submitted these original papers, and
I can recall calling Mr. Barry, who is our secretary in
charge of financial matters, and telling him that I had
agreed to do this, and that a messenger would bring this
check to our office, and that we were to have ready a coun-
ter-check of $2,159.17, to deliver in the name of C. R.
Street, Agent. I think, sir, that covers everything that
the letter refers to, except the slight difference in the
amount which has been verified and rechecked.
Q.19. I notice in the first paragraph of this letter
addressed to Mr. Schoen, dated March 24, 1936, it says,
“Referring to your letter of the 12th instant, we beg to
advise you that a representative of the Trustee in the
above case turned over to us a check in the amount of $4,-
750.17, with the explanation that this check was a further
payment on the impoundings made up to April 30, 1935,
and represented 11 per cent of our premiums impounded
to that date.” Who was the representative of the trus-
tee? Was that Paul L. Haid? A. That is the only repre-
sentative I know, sir.
Q.20. And I notice on the typewritten part of this
letter or copy—I think it appears on the photostatic copy—
a mark made there in the form of a star, and then down
here appears these words, “Actually a representative of
‘the powers that be.’” In whose handwriting are these
RonaLtp R. Martin—Dr1rect 5
words, “Actually a representative of ‘the powers that
be’”? A. Frank J. Barry’s.
Q.21. Who are “the powers that be”? A. I haven’t
the faintest idea what was in Mr. Barry’s mind when he
wrote that, sir.
Q.22. But Mr. Barry had put on the letter up here,
a star for reference to a foot note? A. Yes.
Q.23. That is what you would interpret that to be,
after the word “trustee,” and then after that he had
added these words, “Actually a representative of ‘the
powers that be’”? A. Yes.
Q.24. You understand that the representative of the
trustee was Paul L. Haid? A. I do, sir.
Q.25. But you can’t throw any light on Mr. Barry’s
notation in the letter that this representative of the trus-
tee was “Actually a representative of ‘the powers that
be’”? A. Only to this extent, sir: I might say that
any information that Mr. Barry got in this matter must
have been from me, because there is no other contact that
I ever heard of or have been aware of.
Q.26. I understand that, but do you know and can
you tell us who he meant by “the powers that be’’?
The Special Master: I would not pay much attention
to what he said anyhow. I could conclude as well as
he could, if he did not write it on there.
Senator Hollingsworth: Sir?
The Special Master: I could conclude what Mr. Barry
meant just as well as he could, unless he wrote it on
there or unless he told Mr. Barry to write it on there.
Senator Hollingsworth: That is true, unless the
powers that be are generally known in the office of
the Atlas Assurance Company, and if you know who they
are, that is all I want to know.
Q.27. Do you know who “the powers that be”
are? A. In the Atlas Assurance Company?
The Special Master: Or the insurance world. Is
there anybody commonly referred to by that name that
you know of?
A. Generally, no, sir.
Q.28. (By Senator Hollingsworth) So you don’t
know and you can’t give us any information as to whom
he meant by that notation? A. I cannot, sir.
Q.29. Mr. Barry is where? A. He is in northern
New Jersey some place on vacation. He will be back in
New York next Monday.
6 Ronatp R. Martin—DIREcCT
Q.30. Now, there appears to be some confusion in
figures in the correspondence here, but I won’t go into
that. A. I think, sir, that has all been straightened out.
The Special Master: It is immaterial, isn’t it?
Senator Hollingsworth: I think so, and I won’t go
into it.
The Special Master: We do not care anything about
that slight discrepancy in the figures. The letter is
simply confirming the first figure, of $43,000.00.
Q.31. When Mr. Haid called on you for the 5 per
cent, as I understand he did— A. (Interrupting) Yes,
sir.
Q.32. (Continuing) —just tell as fully as you can
what he said about what it was for. A. First, sir, the
conversation was a short one, and I can’t report his con-
versation word for word, but the impression remains in
my mind something about that, “Ronnie,” which is the
name he usually calls me over the telephone, “I have a
check in hand for a certain amount representing 11 per
cent of the impounded premiums which is due to you
and because of’—I don’t know whether he said, “ad-
ditional expenses” or what he did say actually—‘“‘there is
5 per cent of this amount on which that is based, to be
returned in the form of a check addressed to Mr. C. R.
Street, Agent.”
Q.33. You knew that 30 per cent had been allocated
for the payment of expenses? A. I have heard of the 30
r cent.
Q.34. Did you understand from Mr. Haid that some
unanticipated expenses had accrued? A. I question, sir,
whether I even thought that deeply on the subject. That
is a matter that has been running on, even before I came
to New York.
Q.35. You mean you had no understanding at all as
to what he meant other than that it was for expenses? A.
I mean that his conversation was quite intelligible and
appeared to me as a clear cut statement, that he had
this amount in hand that represented 11 per cent, and he
wanted the 5 per cent drawn back. The natural conclu-
sion in my mind being, I presume at the time (I can only
guess now), is that the check was drawn to our order,
that we should only get 11 per cent and giving 5 per cent
back. Why it was done in that fashion, I didn’t know
at that time, and I haven’t learned since, really.
Q.36. Did he tell you to whom to make the check?
A. Yes, sir.
Frep A. Hussparp—Dr1rect 7
Q.37. That was C. R. Street, Agent? A. There is no
doubt of that, because a memorandum in my own hand-
writing of that date is here, which shows that quite
clearly, “C. R. Street, Agent.”
Q.38. Do you have any impression as to why that
should have been done or why it should have been made to
C. R. Street, Agent? A. My impression would’ be a
very natural one, that Mr. Street could be in close col-
laboration with the attorneys, Folonie’s firm, all through
the years in this matter, and it never came in my mind
to question why it should be made to Mr. Street.
Q.39. The fact that the trustees had charge of the
disbursement of funds for disbursement didn’t occur to
you at that time? A. It did not, sir.
Q.40. That is the extent of your knowledge in this
matter? A. It is, sir.
Senator Hollingsworth: That is all.
(Witness excused.)
FRED A. HUBBARD, being produced, sworn and exam-
ined as a witness on behalf of the defendants, tes-
tified as follows:
Direct Examination by Senator Hollingsworth.
Q.1. State your name, please. A. Fred A. Hub-
bard.
Q.2. Mr. Hubbard, what was your connection with
the Globe & Rutgers in 1935 and 1936? A. President.
Q.3. You are not now connected with the Globe &
Rutgers? A. No.
Q.4. When did you sever your connection with that
company? A. September of 1938.
Q.5. What was your connection with Globe & Rut-
gers in 1935 and 1936? A. I was president.
Q.6. I hand you Defendants’ Exhibit 100, which has
heretofore been introduced in evidence, and call your at-
tention to that memorandum there. Does that refresh
your recollection? A. Yes, sir.
Q.7. Now, it appears from this memorandum made
by Mr. VanHorne that on March 23, 1936, Mr. Haid had
called to see you and left a check with you from R. J.
Folonie and C. R. Street, as Trustees? A. Yes, sir.
Q.8. He came to your office, did he? A. Yes, sir.
Q.9. Where is your office located, or where was it
located at that time? A. 111 Williams Street.
Frep A. HusBBARD—DIRECT
Q.10. Where was Mr. Haid’s office located at that
time? A. I think here; I am not certain.
Q.11. How far is 111 Williams Street from this
place? A. About three blocks.
Q.12. What did Mr. Haid say to you when he came
there? A. Well, my recollection is that he said, “Well,
Fred, I have got a check here for you for”—whatever it
was—“$9,000.00,”” and he handed me the check, and he
said, “I want a check to C. R. Street, as agent, for forty
some hundred dollars.”
Q.13. Did he hand you the check which was, as I
understand, 11 per cent of the impounded premiums? A.
I think he did, either to myself—I am not sure whether
Mr. VanHorne was in the room or not.
Q.14. You noted that a check came from R. J. Folo-
nie and C. R. Street, Trustees? A. I don’t think I noted
it.
Q.15. Would the memorandum refresh your mem-
ory as to that? A. I would say that was a correct state-
ment.
Q.16. You knew they were the trustees in charge
of the 30 per cent impounded premium fund? A. I
really knew very little about it, for this reason: I was
out of the business from 1923 until the first of 1933, and
the Globe & Rutgers had been in rehabilitation. It had
been out of business for about eighteen months, and this
particular matter was really what we called a rehabilita-
tion matter. It was in connection with the old estate of
the Globe & Rutgers, and not with the new operations,
and I really knew nothing about the Missouri situation,
because I hadn’t been in it at the time.
Q.17. Did the fact that the 5 per cent check which
you were called upon to give to Mr. Haid was made to
C. R. Street as agent, strike you as being in any way
peculiar or out of line? A. Not at all.
Q.18. You had no prior knowledge as to this trans-
action? A. None whatever.
Q.19. Have you related all of the conversation Mr.
Haid had with you? A. I would say so, yes.
Q.20. Did you deliver the check to Mr. Haid per-
sonally or cause it to be delivered that day? A. Yes,
either delivered it or caused it to be delivered.
Q.21. Did he tell you the nature of the expense
that the 5 per cent check represented? A. He did not.
Q.22. And you didn’t know? A. I didn’t know.
‘Q.23. You made no further inquiry? A. No.
Fred A. HuspparD—Drrect 9
Q.24. And when you made it to C. R. Street as
agent, you intended to constitute him as your agent for
the purpose of disposing of that money? A. I really—
I don’t think I gave any thought to it at all. I simply
made it the way Mr. Haid asked. I don’t think I thought
about it at all.
The Special Master: The Globe & Rutgers became
impaired and went into the hands of the Superintendent
of Insurance while this rate litigation was going on?
A. Yes, in March, 1933, I think.
The Special Master: Partly on account of the de-
pression in the value of its securities?
A. Yes.
The Special Master: And for a long time it was not
permitted to write insurance at all?
A. For about eighteen months.
The Special Master: Then the market got better, and
its securities were more valuable? ;
A. Well, that wasn’t exactly it. They reorganized
under the superintendent.
The Special Master: Yes, but meanwhile they got
to the place where they could actually put up reserve?
A. They had to put in more money to do that. They
had a reorganization.
The Special Master: Then when that happened, the
Superintendent of Insurance required Mr. Jameson, the
former president, to go out?
A. Yes, sir.
a — Master: That is what brought you in?
. Yes.
The Special Master: All right.
Q.25. (By Senator Hollingsworth) Now, I want to
refer, Mr. Hubbard, to the Hanover Fire Insurance Com-
— connection with this matter under inquiry now.
es.
Q.26. When did you go with Hanover? A. In
September, 1938, or October Ist, 1938.
Q.27. Do you know who was in charge of the op-
eration of the company in 1935 and 1936?_ A. Mr. Hig-
ley was president at that time and Mr. Montgomery Clark
was vice-president.
Q.28. Is Mr. Montgomery Clark living? A. No.
Q.29. Is Mr. Higley living? A. No.
Q.30. Who was Edward L. Coffill? A. I think at
that time he was assistant secretary. He is now secre-
tary.
Frep A. HuBBARD—DIRECT
Q.31. He is now secretary? A. Yes.
Q.32. Where is he located, here? A. Yes, across
the street.
(Documents, handed to the reporter, were maked for
identification as ‘Defendants’ Exhibits 121 to 135, EFM,”
both inclusive.)
Q.33. Do you have any information or knowledge
at all concerning this matter, insofar as the Hanover was
connected with it prior to the time you went to Hanover?
A. No.
Q.34. Did you talk to any of the executives or learn
anything of it? A. No, sir.
Senator Hollingsworth: Mr. Berger, will it be ad-
mitted that Defendants’ Exhibits 121 to 135, inclusive,
constitute the records of the Hanover Company insofar
as they relate to the matter now under inquiry?
Mr. Berger: As far as we know, they do. The letter
of transmittal precedes all of those and so states.
Senator Hollingsworth: These records are the rec-
ords of the company.
Mr. Murphy: Photostats of their records.
Mr. Berger: The records furnished by the Hanover,
Western Department, furnished to the United States
District Attorney.
Senator Hollingsworth: We offer those exhibits in
evidence.
(Which said Defendants’ Exhibits 121 to 135, both
inclusive—excepting Exhibit 131, which was inadver-
tently omitted in numbering, so that there is no Exhibit

Re: Missouri Jepounded Premiue
Dear Mr. Coffills
We thank you for your advices of March 25.
Apparently these settlements as tha come along will be sade
direct to the Home Office. We do not know where the trustees
get the figure of -: $82,329.66
for which they sent you 1%, but this, no doubt,will be
explained later on.
We will follow your suggestion, and
credit Missouri impounded premiums - 9,056.26
and charge the Home Office with the same amount as a
remittance from the Western Departaent. We shall also
credit as a remittance from the Home Office - 4,116.4
that you have paid to &. J. Folonie, agent for legal
expense, which latter figure will be charged on our
books as Missouri legal expense. We shall consider these
‘items as suggested by you as cash entries for the month of
March. If we all live long enough»we might see an end to
this particular case.
wg AB WET IE WES FRENTE
For your general information, we are arranging
in view of the remittance we recently received from the Hone
Office to pay the commission on impounded premiums, which the
companies were forced to arrange for on a 100% basis, although
dn the end we will receive 80¢ back on part of the impounded
premiums, and 66 2/3¢ back on the balance, but @ concerted action
by the companies allows agents full amount of the commission,
. 80 our commission ratio for the time being will be way out of
proportion, as you can readily understand.
Yours very truly,

Senator Hollingsworth: That is all.

Q.12. You have since heard of such a fund? A.
Yes, I heard it from Mr. Murphy the other day.
Q.13. Prior to that time you had never heard of it?
A. Never.
Q.14. Now, after the federal court decree and the
creation of the trust, I believe you received a remittance
from the 30 per cent fund in the sum of 11 per cent? A.
Correct.
Q.15. From whom did you receive that? A. I had
a call from Mr. Erskine of Mr. Haid’s office. He handed
the check to me.
~ @.16. Did Mr: Erskine come to your office person-
ally? A. Yes.
Q.17. And gave you 11 per cent check? A. Yes, sir.
Q.18. Was that signed by the trustees? A. I
haven’t any record or recollection of that.
Q.19. At the time Mr. Erskine delivered you that
check, what did he tell you? A. To the best of my
recollection, he told me that he was commissioned as a
messenger to deliver this check for 11 per cent to the
companies domiciled in New York, and I understood it
came from Mr. Folonie’s office.
Q.20. What else did he say to you in regard to the
matter? A. He also requested that we remit to him 5
per cent back which was required for expenses.
Q.21. What expenses did he tell you they were? A.
No detail was given. I asked him if there was any de-
tail about it and he said, ‘“‘No.”” He was simply a mes-
senger.
Q.22. You asked him if he knew anything about it?
A. I said, was there any detail he could give me in re-
gard to the transaction, and he said, no, he was simply
a messenger to deliver the 11 per cent check and to re-
quest a check for 5 per cent.
Q.23. Did he tell you who had sent him? A. I un-
derstood that it was from Mr. Folonie.
Q.24. And you understood that he was a messenger
from Mr. Folonie’s office in connection with it? A. Yes.
Q.25. And told you that he couldn’t give you any
details in regard to the expense at all? A. That is so,
yes.
Q.26. Did he tell you to whom the check should be
drawn? A. Yes, sir.
Q.27. Did you thereupon make a requisition for the
check? A. I instructed our accountant so to do.
18 OsWALpD TREGASKIS—DIRECT
Q.28. Did you give the accountant the necessary in-
formation to write the requisition? A. I did.
(Said requisition, handed to the reporter, was
aE) for identification as “Defendants’ Exhibit 136,
Q.29. I hand you Defendants’ Exhibit 136, which I
now introduce in evidence. Please state if that is the
requisition. A. That is a photostat of the original regq-
uisition.
(Which said Defendants’ Exhibit 136, so offered in
evidence, having been previously duly marked, is in
words and figures as follows: )
20 OSWALD TREGASKIS—DIRECT
Q.30. I note that that calls for a check to the order
of R. J. Folonie, Agent? A. Yes, sir.
(A photostatic copy of a check, handed to the re.
porter, was marked for identification as ‘Defendants’ Ex.
hibit 137, EFM.’’)
Q.31. I show you Defendants’ Exhibit 137. Please
state if that is a photostatic copy of the check that was
issued under the requisition? A. It is.
Q.32. That check is dated March 23, 1936? A. Cor.
rect.
Q.33. And it is payable to R. J. Folonie, Agent?
A. Yes.
‘ ps It doesn’t show on its face what it was for?
. No.
Q.35. Now, will you look at the check, and I believe
it shows that it was not paid until November 17, 1936.
The Special Master: And it was issued when?
Senator Hollingsworth: March 23, 1936.
A. Yes, that is so.
Q.36. Do you know why that check was not cleared
through the banks until November 17, 1936? A. I have
no idea.
Q.37. Was it called to your attention at any time
that that check was still out? A. No, it was not.
Q.38. You never heard of it and never knew of that
unusual length of time? A. No, sir.
Q.39. Had you ever heard of it before I called your
attention to it? A. Mr. Murphy mentioned it the other
day to me. I hadn’t heard of it until then.
Q.40. I call your attention to the endorsement ap-
pearing on the back of it; part of it apparently is your
re in order to make the endorsement of the receipt.
A. Yes.
Q.41. Then under that, “Expense, Missouri Litiga-
tion,” is that a part— A. (Interrupting) That is part
of our endorsement.
Q.42. Then under that is typewritten, ‘Pay to the
order of C. R. Street,” then signed, “R. J. Folonie,
Agent.” A. That is not affected by the Sun Insurance
Company office.
Q.43. In other words, that is an endorsement placed
on there ostensibly by R. J. Folonie, Agent, after it was
issued out of your office? A. I would assume so.
Q.44. Do you have any explanation as to why your
check payable to R. J. Folonie was afterwards endorsed,
OSWALD TREGASKIS—DIRECT 21
“Pay to the order of C. R. Street,” signed “R. J. Folonie,
Agent”? A. No, I have no explanation.
Q.45. Had you ever noticed that before? A. No,
I had not.
(Whereupon, discussion was had off the record.)
Senator Hollingsworth: I offer in evidence Exhibit
137.

(A requisition, handed to the reporter, was marked
for identification as ‘Defendants’ Exhibit 138, EFM.’’)
Q.46. I show you Defendants’ Exhibit 138. Do you
recognize that as the requisition? A. Yes. The “Agent”
is very faint. Yes, that is it. That is the requisition.
Q.47. Can you tell from looking at that whether the
word “Agent” was written on there at the time you
made up the requisition or afterwards? A. I would say
it was made at the time, because my recollection is that
that was the way we were asked to draw the check.
Q.48. You had an independent recollection at that
time? A. Yes, I had an independent recollection at that
time.
Q.49. Then the check was issued to R. J. Folonie,
Agent? A. Yes.
Q.50. At that time did you intend for R. J. Folonie
as Agent to endorse a check over that you gave him to
C. R. Street? A. No, sir.
Q.51. You constituted Folonie as your agent? A.
Yes.
Q.52. To whom did you understand the money was
going? A. Well, to Folonie, on behalf of our united
interests.
Q.53. I know, but going to him to be paid to whom?
You wrote it to R. J. Folonie, Agent. You meant by that
that he was your agent, didn’t you? A. Yes.
Q.54. All right. To whom was he to pay this
money? A. To whom it was due. I assumed that it was
for legal expenses incurred.
Q.55. Well, you didn’t understand that C. R. Street
was a lawyer, did you? A. No, sir.
Q.56. And when the check came back to you, to your
office, it was endorsed by Folonie, Agent, over to C. R.
Street? A. Yes.
The Special Master: When did you first see that
endorsement?
A. I think I saw it the other day when I was—
The Special Master: The reason I am asking you, or-
dinarily an executive does not look at the endorsements
on canceled checks, not unless he has some reason to do
so.
A. Lissue many hundreds of check a day; it wouldn’t
pass through my hands.
24 OsWALp TREGASKIS—DIRECT
Q.57. Was it called to your attention before Mr.
Murphy talked to you about it several days ago? A. No,
sir.
Q.58. You never knew anything about it prior to that
time? A. I never knew anything about it prior to that
time.
Q.59. I believe you stated that you never knew be.
fore you talked to Mr. Murphy the other day that this
check had not cleared until November of 1936? A. That
is so.
Q.60. Would anyone in your office, your accountants
or auditors, ordinarily note an outstanding check from
March, 1936, until November of 1936? A. Yes, it
would be noticed because it would appear in bank rec-
oncilement statements. There is nothing unusual in
checks being outstanding for a long period of time.
Q.61. For that period of time? A. Oh, yes, some
even longer.
Q.62. Checks for that amount? A. No, I would say
that was an unusually large amount. There might be an
estate tied up in case of a loss payment or something of
that kind where it wouldn’t be cleared for so long.
Q.63. Do you know now whether your office di-
rected any inquiry to find out what had become of this
check? A. I have no knowledge of that. I think if there
had been any such inquiry instituted, I would have heard
of it.
Senator Hollingsworth: I offer in evidence Exhibit
138.

Senator Hollingsworth: That is all.
Cross Examination by Mr. Bullitt.
XQ.64. Then as far as your Sun Insurance Office is
concerned, and the Patriotic Insurance Company, the
two checks of March 23, 1936, aggregating $3,800.00 cer-
tainly didn’t go to Mr. Pendergast or Mr. O’Malley or
anybody else who got their money in the spring of 1936,
did they? A. No, sir.
XQ.65. So none of your money went to any improper
place, did it? A. No, sir.
Mr. Bullitt: So far as you are concerned. All right,
that is all.
Re-Direct Examination by Senator Hollingsworth.
RDQ.66. You don’t know for what purpose Mr.
Street used it, do you? A. I have no idea.
RDQ.67. You thought when you issued it it would
= for payment of legal fees then due, didn’t you? A.
es.
RDQ.68. Now, I call your attention to another requi-
sition which has been marked “‘Defendants’ Exhibit 136,”
and direct your attention especially to the words “R. J.
Folonie,” and the word “Agent” after it. Isn’t that
a different writing with a different pencil or a different
pen, or whatever it was written with? A. No. I recog-
nize that writing; it is our accountant’s writing. That is
his initial, and they are both in the same handwriting.
RDQ.69. You think it was written at the same
time? A. I am convinced of that. I think that the like-
ness is due to it having been blotted immediately.
RDQ.70. Well, this would be written afterwards,
wouldn’t it?
Mr. Bullitt: “This” doesn’t show in the record.
You have stated, “This shows written.” You must say
what you mean.
RDQ.71. (By Senator Hollingsworth) Well, I
mean, “In payment of expense, Missouri Litigation,”—
Mr. Bullitt: Written after that.
RDQ.72. Would be written after the word “Agent”
if it was written in ordinary course
The Special Master: You are talking about the fact
that the word “Agent” is lighter than the rest of it?
OswALpD TREGASKIS—RE-DIRECT 27
Senator Hollingsworth: That is right.
Mr. Bullitt: What you mean is you think the word
“Agent” may have been written in after the words “Ex-
penses of Litigation”?
Senator Hollingsworth: You are asking what I
think? I doubt if that would be competent. I wouldn’t
mind telling you off the record.
Mr. Bullitt: No, what was your question?
Senator Hollingsworth: I asked him—
The Special Master: Did he believe that that was
written at the same time, and he said he believed it was.
A. That is because of my independent recollection,
that that was the way it was requisitioned.
RDQ.73. Ishow you Defendants’ Exhibit No. 137, and
that appears to be the portion of the Patriotic Insur-
ance Company’s contribution to the 5 per cent? A. Yes.
RDQ.74. $249.31, as I read it? A. That is so.
RDQ.75. That was issued also to R. J. Folonie
Agent, was it not? A. Yes.
RDQ.76. And bears the same endorsement, does it
not, as the check issued by the Sun, “Pay to the order of
C. R. Street”? A. That is so.
RDQ.77. “R. J. Folonie, Agent”? A. Yes.
RDQ.78. I call your attention to the fact that the
stamp shows that it was not cleared until November 17,
1936. A. That is correct.
RDQ.79. You have no explanation to make of that?
A. I have not.
The Special Master: Between November and what?
A. To clear up this point about the possibility of
the word “Agent” having been put in at a different time,
I will mention that under our office procedure, the
cashier is unable to draw a check until receipt of a requi-
sition. The check was drawn “R. J. Folonie, Agent,” in
accord with the requisition; the check was drawn the
same way.
RDQ.80. I follow that. A. And the cashier must
have had that requisition in that form to draw that
requisition in that way.
Senator Hollingsworth: I agree with you, and I
think that is all.
(Witness excused.)

C. A. SIEDEL, being produced, sworn and examined as
a witness on behalf of the defendants, testified as
follows:
Direct Examination by Mr. Holman.
Q.1. Your name is S. A. Siedel? A. That is right.
Q.2. What connection did you have with the
Stuyvesant Insurance Company in the years 1935 and
1936? A. Until August, 1935, as assistant secretary,
and after that I have been secretary.
Q.3. During all of that period of time you were
either assistant secretary or secretary? A. That is right.
Q.4. Did you know of the so-called Missouri litiga-
tion during that period? A. Yes.
Q.5. Your company and some 136 other companies
had suits pending in Missouri over rates? A. That is
right.
Q.6. Who handled this Missouri litigation for your
company? A. I handled practically all of it.
The Special Master: Who?
A. I did.
Q.7. You handled it insofar as any— A. (Inter-
rupting) All correspondence was turned over to me.
Q.8. That is it. You handled it insofar as any of-
ficial of your company had anything to do with it? A.
That is it.
Q.9. But did you have direct contact with Mr.
Folonie and other attorneys? A. I never heard of Mr.
Folonie.
Q.10. Then who was in charge of this litigation for
all of the insurance companies involved in that federal
litigation? A. We followed only the Subscribers’ Ac-
tuarial Bureau in this regard, and never dug under-
neath the surface. We are a small company.
Q.11. In other words, the Subscribers’ Actuarial
ee handled the litigation for you? <A. That is
right.
The Special Master: That was the Bureau?
A. The Subscribers’ Actuarial Committee is the
proper name.
Q.12. And any expenses paid before May, 1935, by
your company were paid through the Missouri Inspec-
tion Bureau? A. Right.
Q.13. Paid by your company, is that true? A. Yes.
The Special Master: Well, he didn’t answer. Do
you know whether that is true?
C. A. Sreper—Drrect 29
A. Iam not certain whether the checks were drawn
to the Missouri Inspection Bureau or the Subscribers’
Actuarial Bureau at the present time.
Q.14. One or the other? A. They are either one
or the other.
Q.15. Was any particular member of the Sub-
scribers’ Actuarial Committee actually in charge of this
litigation? A. That I don’t know.
Q.16. Have you heard that Mr. Street, the chairman
at that time, really handled the litigation? A. Yes, I
have.
Q.17. And he was handling it as agent for the in-
surance companies? A. That is right.
Q.18. Including your company? A. Right.
Mr. Bullitt: He said he had heard that.
Mr. Holman: No, I didn’t say that as to the last
question.
Mr. Bullitt: Read me that question and see what he
said. He said he had heard it. He didn’t say it was so.
He said he heard it. (Question read.)
Q.19. (By Mr. Holman) Do you know that he was
handling— A. (Interrupting) I do now, but I am not
certain that I knew then, that I was positive at that time.
Q.20. You never objected to the person or persons
who were handling it? A. No, we didn’t.
Q.21. It was entirely satisfactory to you? A. Yes.
Q.22. Whoever it may have been? A. Yes.
Q.23. But it was your belief at that time that
Street was handling it? A. That is right.
Q.24. Do you know in that litigation that a settle-
ment agreement was entered into in May, 1935? A. Yes,
we had, I think, a letter from the Subscribers’ Actuarial
Bureau.
Q.25. That letter came out in June, or somewhere
along about that time, 1935? A. I don’t know the date.
Q.26. What was your answer? A. I don’t know
the date.
Q.27. Well, you received a letter from the Missouri
Inspection Bureau about May or June, 1935, didn’t you?
A. We may have. I don’t recall that. I don’t recall
any before 1936.
Q.28. At any rate, along about that time you became
advised that a settlement agreement had been entered
into? A. Yes, sir.
Q.29. You knew, in a general way at least, the terms
of that agreement, did you not? A. Yes, we did.
30 C. A. Srepet—DrIrect
Q.30. And that was briefly, that the policyholders
would get 20 per cent, the companies would immediately
get 50 per cent, and 30 per cent would be turned over
to trustees for the companies to pay expenses? A. That
is right.
Q.31. And any part not used for expenses would
be returned to the companies? A. Yes, sir.
Q.32. That is true? A. That is what we
Q.33. That is the way you understood it. Now,
your knowledge, you say, came from a letter you re-
ceived? A. That is right.
Q.34. Did you discuss this situation with other in-
surance executives in New York? A. No, we didn’t.
We may have discussed it among our own executives in
the office, but as a rule we don’t stick Stuyvesant mat-
ters out to other executives.
Q.35. Did you attend a meeting held in this office
in May, 1935? A. No, I don’t think I did.
Q.36. Relating to this insurance settlement? A.
I don’t think I did.
Q.37. Do you know whether any member or any
representatives of your company attended such a meet-
ing? A. I don’t think we were represented at that time.
Q.38. This settlement agreement that you have out-
lined, was that satisfactory to your company? A. Well,
we just took that as a matter of course.
Q.39. That is, you made no objection? A. We
made no objection.
Q.40. To what your agents had done for you? A.
That is right.
Q.41. Therefore, you were willing that that be
done? A. Yes.
Q.42. Whether it was satisfactory or not? A. That
is right.
(A check, handed to the reporter, was marked for
identification as “‘Defendants’ Exhibit 139, EFM.”)
Q.43. I hand you Defendants’ Exhibit 139, which
I now offer in evidence, and ask you to state what that is.

Q.44. Just how did Mr. Haid request that you draw
that check? A. He called me on the phone and stated
that we were to get 11 per cent back, and that we were
to return 5 per cent of that as legal expenses.
Q.45. Five percent of what? A. Five percent of
the—
Q.46. (Interrupting) Total impounded premiums?
A. Right.
Q.47. You were to receive 11 per cent of the total
impounded premiums, and return a check for 5 per cent?
A. 5 per cent.
Q.48. Did you ask him for what reason they wanted
that money? A. No, I didn’t, and I think he stated at
the time it was expenses, and we so charged it in our
records
Q.49. What kind of expenses did he say? A. We
would naturally charge it off to legal expenses.
Q.50. You would naturally do that? Did he tell
you it was for legal expenses? A. I think he did.
Q.51. But you are not certain about that? A. I
don’t recall that.
Q.52. Did you ask him what type of expenses it was
for? A. No, I didn’t.
Q.53. Didn’t it strike you as unusual that he would
be asking for a check for expenses when you knew that
the trustees had 30 per cent of the total impounded pre-
miums to pay expenses? A. Well, we didn’t, for the
simple reason that we had withdrawn from the state in
1933, and all refunds that we received at that time we
more or less took as a salvage on an asset that we con-
sidered—
Q.54. (Interrupting) Yes, but you testified a min-
ute ago that you knew that the trustees held 30 per cent
of the total impounded premiums with which to pay ex-
penses. Now, didn’t it strike you as unusual that they
would pay you 11 per cent of that amount, or 11 per cent
of the total impounded premiums, which was out of that
trust fund, and ask you for another check back to pay
expenses? A. Not unusual, no.
Q.55. Can you think of any reason now why they
would do that? A. Possibly not.
Q.56. Well, don’t you consider these things when
you are requested to pay out money? A. No, if we turn
over any litigation to a committee, we follow that com-
mittee without argument.
C. A. Srepet—DrreEct 33
Q.57. Did Mr. Haid ask you whom to make the check
payable to? A. Yes, he did.
Q.58. Or tell you, I mean? A. He did.
Q.59. And did you follow his instructions? A. We
did.
Q.60. To whom did he say it should be made pay-
able? A. C. R. Street.
Q.61. That was all he said? A. That is right.
Q.62. He didn’t say “C. R. Street, Agent?” <A. No,
our check is not made out to C. R. Street, Agent.
Q.63. Didn’t you think it strange that he not be
designated in some way, in some official capacity? A.
Well, we knew he was attorney for us in that regard.
Q.64. You mean an agent for you? A. That is
right.
. Q.65. He wasn’t an attorney? A. Well, he was an
agent for the attorneys.
Q.66. Well, he was an agent for your companies,
wasn’t he? A. Yes.
Q.67. You knew that, so, therefore, you didn’t put it
on the check? A. We didn’t question the matter. The
request wasn’t made, as I recall it, to designate him as
agent on the check.
Q.68. Did you pass on whether or not this money
would be paid or did some other executive have some-
thing to say? A. No, I requested the accountant to draw
the check.
Q.69. It is your duty, as an officer of the company,
to try to keep down expenses and handle things in a
businesslike way, isn’t it? A. It certainly is.
-Q.70. Didn’t you give some thought to this propo-
sition as to whether you should pay out this money just
because Paul Haid told you to? A. No.
Q.71. Do you ordinarily pay out money without
knowing what it is going for? A. No.
Q.72. Why didn’t you question him as to just what
