The Prompt Settlement of tbe on the Polity Up Life of the Late Theodore H. Van Hoven. By the Hew York Life Insurance Company Issued In July, Died In August, Claim Paid in SeptemSsr—Open Letter. When approached upon the subject of life insurance bnBiness men will often ad Bait that tbey know not the day nor liour when tbey will bo called upon to sur render alt oartbly possessions to loved ones and claim their e'ernal inheritance, but few indeed realize how near at' hand that day and hour may be until, pei' chance, some young, healthy busy man is snatched from our midst by tho death messenger. The late Theodore H. Van Hoven, of the firm of Van Hovcn & Co., live stock commission merchants of this city, little thought when making appli cation for an insurance policy in the lat ter part ot July that within ten days ho would be taken sick never to re cover, and yet his action in taking in surance indicates that he realized death might come any time—must come some time—and that he could not delay mak ing a provision so wise and important to his family. Had he delayed so doing a few days' oven his estate would have been-' poorer by 85,000. Tho following open letter gives the facts in regard to his in- suranco with the New York Life taken through General Agent Gilbert A. Smith: OCTOBEH L, 1888. G. A. Smith, Esq., General Agent New York Life Insurance Company. DEAR SIB:—I beg to acknowledge re ceipt of your company's check on Chem ical National bank of New York for five thousand and seventy-three dollars and twenty-five cents($5,073.25) in payment of your policy No. 288,578 on the life of my deceased husband, Theodore' H: Van Hoven. It is due you and the T^ew York Life, as well as the public, that the exact circumstances connected with the settlement be made known.' Mr. Van Hoven applied to your company through you for $5,000 insurance on your five year plan on the 25th of last July, when in sound health and every reason to be lieve he would live to reap the benefits of the insurance himself at the maturity of the policy. The application was accept ed and your policy issued under date of August 3, and within the same month jfly husband was taken sick and died with typhoid fever. The necessary pa pers were made out under your supervis ion, without trouble or expense to my self, and forwarded to the company on September 22, the delay in signing pa pers being occasioned by the absence of one of the parties who bad to make a statement. On September 25, just two months' from the day my husband made' application for the policy, the company's check was drawn and sent me in pay ment of t&e claim. Such promptness and attention on your part and the part ot the company cannot be tao warmly commended. The one thirlg we do not vadforstand is why your check is for $73225 more than the face of the policy. Yon say it is a dividend of 50 per cent, of tbe prem ium my husband paid you, or one-half of his premium returned. We do not understand this, but we do apTJreciate the great liberality and fair dealing of the company, and will take pleaewro in' recommending the New York Life tfe toy friends and the friends of my late- hus band as the company in which to insure. We learn also that 'your company- has for many years written the largest in surance of any company in this state, and I now see the reason why. Yamrs respectfully, [Signed] CATHBBFITB VAN HOVES*.V The insurance companies of this coin try paid out nearly $1,000,000 last year in just such losses—death occurring the first year of the policy. The New Ysrk Life Insurance company alone paid d*r kjg the year 1887 $380,000 as death policies taken within twelve months praw to death. This company has for maay years done the largest and most success ful business in Iowa of all the companies under Gilbert A. Smith, its general agent writing during the last eight years ov»r 50 per cent, more business than any of its competitors. The following figures taken from Investigator life chart givws tiie facts: BY THE FOUR LEADING COMPANIES. New insurance written in the state of Towa during the eight year ending Jan uary 1, 1888: Hew York Life $8,700JM Sorthweotern 5,300JM Kquitable 5,300,000 Matual Life 3,5G0,ttX) The following table shows the won derful growth of the New York Life's premium income in this state as oomr pared with other leading companies (odd dollars and cents omitted): PREMIUMS BBtmsVBD IN IOWA.

Death olaima claiui* paid to paid daring 1887. & Sew Hte $26,028.22 Equitable r,6,000.00 Mutual Life 6H.500.00 Northwestern 77,591.99 41.7 48.4 The large increase in the business of of the New York Life in Iowa is due to the history of unequal profits earned by that company and to ita payment of heavy dividends on its maturing tontine policies, which for years have exceeded the dividends paid on any other plan of insurance or by any other company, and to the efficient and ablft management of its general agent, who has been connect ed with the company for many years. Gilbert A. Smith has made Sioux City his headquarters foe- several years and his general offices are now located in this citv, through which business from Iowa, Nebraska and Dakota passes, and under his management in 1887 the New York Life wrote 16 per cent, more busi ness in Dakota, 50- per cent, more in Iowa and 15®-,per oent. more in Nebtat ka than any, cither company.
