INSURANCE WW. The C ronnde gives as an llmuMsation of the value of the "trained observation," which in surance commissioners display, a list of the t*enty-tour companies carrying risks on the lately burned New York piano factory, with the remark that of the number "sixteen were not authorized to do business" in that State. There are some very ugly stories, told with much emphasis, about the tax, to call it by a mild name, levied upon insurance companies by the insurance department of the State of New York, and if the present Superintendent be in office when the next Legislature meets there will be employment for a special inves tigating committee. Doubtless Superinten dent Smyth will demand such a committee. (Spectator. The State Insurance Commissioners are holding a convention at St. Paul, Minn. "Most of the session will be devoted to cofI dential conference." JOst so; we are the su pervisors; other people have no right to ob serve our methods or our movements; we do not need watching. Well, that is probably true; the only thing insurance commissioners really need is, notice to quit. The necessity for good building laws and their rigid enforcement has been urged by our chief fire engineer, and advocated by this paper, but as yet no action has been taken. And now, as is always the case after a disas ter, New York is manifesting sonme interest in the matter, which, it is to be hoped, will not end in talk. Our insurance men should take holdbtf this question and not let it rest until something is done here; they have the power, and it ,s their duty to move in the matter. Will they do It ? Speakipg of the war upon British insur ance companies,' the ..,estigator discourses as follows, and the same reasoning may well be applied to local and agency company re lations: Whatever there is of seeming force to the anti-Anglican argument here is derived wholly from the logic in favor "home insur ance,' which usedto be regded with some favor, but has not been highly esteemed since the great Chicago and Boston fires. The es sence of that logic was "keep your money at homel" but when the day of disaster came and the "money at home" was burned up to gether with the property it insured, those who had been unpatriotic enough to send their money abroad for indemnity had reason to congratulate themselves. Heavy local taxation of insurance com panies of other countries or States, with dis crimination in favor of local companies, leads only to bad results; and those bad results come in two ways: first, by driving or keep ing out good agency companies, and leaving the community to insure itself, which no com munity can afford to do; and, second, by in ducing retaliatory legislation by other States, the effect of which is to force the home com panies either to submit to overtaxation (which is always an evil) wherever they plant an agency, or to unduly concentrate their risks, which is the greatest danger an insurance company or its policy-holders ever have to encounter, and which, il event of a large con flagration, leads inevitably and necessarily to disaster. ..---.-- . . ANOTHIER ICK MENATOR. [Ohicago Times.] ST. LOUis, Sept. 15.-Within the last few hours the condition of United States Senator Lewis V. Bogy has become alarming, and his friends do not think he will rally. Since his return from Colorado, where he has been all summer, he has been confined to the house most of the time. The complaint is malarial fever, contracted in Washington, which he has been unable to shake off. To-day his vi tality has been at such a low ebb that it was feared he would not live longer than a few hours, and the Catholic clergy were called in to receive confession preparatory to a fatal termination. Quite a number of the Senator's personal and political friends were at his resl denc, fearing that the end was near, but at midnight he rallied somewhat and was rest ing easy. It is feared that the old man's days are about numbered and there is already can vassing for a successor to fill the unexpired term. Gold Soapina.
