THE INSURANE CL0SSES Baltimore Sun: " ; :, 5 ; The insurance involved in the Chicago fire was about $100,000,000, and some thing like one half of it was defaulted. dozewi of companies becoming bank rupt . It is now estimated that the losses to the insurance companies from the San Francisco fire will be nearly double that Bum, yet the companies are get ting ready to pay, and there is no fear that any company will be seriously af fected. In the Chicago fire of 1871, on ly forty companies were able to pay their losses in full, while fifty-seven companies went to the wall.:' The num ber of companies was 335, but of thU total many were so weak as to be uc ble to face any conflagration. By coni solidation and growth, the number is much less today, and the individual company is far more than proportion ately stronger. Today the companits are figuring on how to pay quickly, while in 1871 many small concerns were so embarrassed that they never figured what their total liability was. So says the New York Times. It in an interesting story. It shows how much stronger the country ha3 grown in thirty-five years. It shows filso what improvements have been male in our insurance methods. It was the Chicago conflagration, adds the Times, which taught the underwriter how to prepare for successive conflagrations which they have weathered in recent years, including the Baltimore fire, and bringing them in good condition to the San Francisco disaster.

Referring to your note, relative to the school tax election, published in your issue of the 21st inst., in which you say that your first information, which you believed to be authoritative, was incorrect. I desire to say that I think said in formation came to you through me, and that in justice to myself, I should state to you the facts, as they have devel oped, .. The act under which this election was carried on provided that a majority. of the qualified voters must cast their ballots in favor of the tax hi order to make it a law, and that all voters who registered at the last general election should be qualified in this election. Af ter the Registration Books had been gone over, and all names which could be legally expunged.had been taken off. there were left 408 names on the books legally qualified to vote, of this num ber, 158 were cast "For Graded Schools" ; and 119 against "graded schools." , In order to carry the election the schools should have polled 205 votes, a majority of the legal voters, of this number they fell short 47 votes. . 1 The count showed that more votes had hepn cant thn. there were voters at the polls, but not nearly so many as there are legal voters in Beaufort, there being t votes in excess of the list of those who voted; and the win ners, those against schools can throw out these fraudulent votes and still re tain the advantage by a good majority. The winners, the men who voted against the tax, did not instruct the registrar and poll holders as to' what their de cision must be; and I consider it a re flection upon these men to say that tbey would take instructions from par ties concerned, on either side, without first having obtained sound and un biased legal advice ia the matter, and I have presumed that they adjourned without a decision, for that purpose. ' I had no idea that they had made up their decision and only delayed making it known. -1 am loth to believe that such was the case; if so, then it is the first instance of which I have any know ledge in which the board of poll-holders have suffered themselves to be instruc ted or ordered, to do just ascertain men may desire them to do. . I, myself, am in favor of education for the masses, in favor of ' graded schools, hut knowing ths -condition of our people ae I do, I am certain that tbey at not prepared to assume tbe extra burden which the tax would place upon them. I took this proposition, and the test at the polls has vindicated by judgment for the men who defeated this tax were largely laboring men, men who must carefully count every dollar of their expenditures. If the time should come when our people are financially prepared, to as sume such a tax, If conditions should change so that the laboring classes of our town can be assured of remunera tive employment, then I stand to heart ily endorse iho establishment of graded schools; but with comparatively "good schools already available, tho people mainly without pcrimnrnt em; lyment and tie "Rain-Low of I'rort.! not yet " I curi- 1 1' t' t t'iO I "f !e wu .l ltew" j i.i I c i t'.U c tra T XX,- ALf.::37 While the dame cold, Winter iutensifies.the; pjjiiqs symptoms of llheumatisiii, i.tc'Cu montbs of Summer its wandering pains aAd tjptdi? ing nerves are felt, by those in.whqsfrblricl tbefic acid, which produces the disease, has accumulated.
