West Trade street waa completely
barricaded , for the space or an hour
last night by a freight and a coal car
that were .pushed off a spur track, 20
feet Beflbw the' 'crossing. An lncomlttg
freight ; engineer failed to see the
slirnals and he -Jammed his train Into
a line of waiting cars, with the result
that three cars- went over the spur,
two stretchna- entirely across the
street. The foremost one damaged the
awning In. front of Mr. J. H. . Emery's
store,
Street cars, vehicles and pedestrians
were held up while the yard crew, re
moved the barricade. The flanges of
the wheels cut a deep straight track
in the -macadam from the time tha
car b left the rails, and the task of
getting . them back was easy.

The yearly compilation of stattstlos
published by the Metropolitan Ut In
surance Company is never dry reading.
A 'summary of that company's busi
ness for the year WOS, Just- issued, tab
ulates astounding figures in the con
cise manner .approved by accountants)
and- following' the-custom of former
years; -supplements them - with, a. clear
and lucid analysis for the benefit of
people who arc not accountants.
Few persona are sufficiently familiar
with . great financial ' operations to
grasp- immediately the full significance,
of a balance sheet, in which totals and
grand totals are expressed in hundreds
of' millions, but the purpose- of a lite
insurance statement is doubtless to in
form, jtnd enlighten.' Its multitude, of
puiiey-noiaers, arm , iuu .. purpose -i laa
Metropolitan management accomplish
es with "(Signal v success. Followlntr
closely .upon -a period of agitation in
the life - insurance field such a swt
ment i timely and specially interest
ing.'' ' After placing before Us a eompre
henslve statement of the company's
general condition, and presenting a,
series of comparative items, the Metro
politan reminds us again that the
number of its policy-holders (now In
creased to more than eight and a half
million) equals the combined popula
tion of our eight largest cities. In
Other Words, If the Company's policies
now in force, were all placed lit New
York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston,
St. I.ouis. Cleveland, Cincinnati and
Milwaukee, every man, v woman and
child In these communities would pos
sess o:;.
Men now living remember when the
whole United States could hardlv have
supplied so vat -u number of Insur
able persons. Even at this day there
are twenty-four State and Territories
Whose combined papulation does not
equal the number of people carrying
insurance In this one great company.
We are Informed that nineteen
thousand persona were In the com
pany's service at the end of 1905. It
one adult breadwinner represents five
lndivduals in the total population, we
must conclude that nearly a hundred
thousand persons draw "subsistence 1
from this institution not In Insurance
benefits, but In direct payment for ser
vice to the company.
This army of nineteen thousand em
ployees evidently Includes no drones.
During the year Just closed it handled
a dally average" of one and a half mil
lion dollars In new business alone. The
company issued on the average nearly
seven thousand new policies every
business day during the same twelve
months.
A single item which Illustrates
graphically the real meaning and pur
pose of all this tremendous business
Is that' relating to insurance claims
paid during the year. These amounted
i more .man io,uw,uuu. 'i n Is means
that some one received from the
Metropolitan Life In benefits one hun-
area and six dollars every minute of
every business year of eight hours
inrousrhout the vean.
Again, the uncertainty of life and
health, and the universal need of life
insurance are most impressively em
