. by. ,. This part deals with lire and
. 9 insurance companies covering
x “011) Iiness transacted during the
”I: 02, together with thoianuual re-
m of tho‘atate fire marshal which
already been made public.

. . “The conditions disclosed In the fi-
-»naiiclal statements of fire insurance
companies filed in this department."
I the commissioner, Theron lipson.

“a ow a marked improvement in the
usiness throughout the country over
t of the last three years. In this

to the business has not been sntis~
actory. ' The fire loss is still much
greater than it should be. It is to
be hoped that the companies will by
all possible‘iiieans. endeavor to bring
about better conditions on that line

and that the ~public will be educated .

up to the point or realizing that the re-
ducion of this mat and a rarge extent
unnecessary are loss means the reduc
tion of onemium rates and the saving
01' a lures sum of money to the proper-
ty owners at large.

”It. is to be regretted that any prop-
ort'y owners in this state should-risk
financial loss by placing their Insur-
'ance with the companies not licensed
to transact business in Connecticut
nor in any other state atid my informa-

tion ,leads me to believe that this is
being done by men of affairs who
...sv'oilld not ordinarily take such haz-
- ards. Such companies are prohibited

from transacting business here. but .

the business Is usually done by cor-
respondence so that it is impossible
to reach the law breakers.”

»- During the year 1902. two companies
having a total capitalization of $700.-
000 were admitted to do business in
the state and nine companies with a
total iii-initialisation of 323731.070 with-
drew from the state. The receiver of

the Wooster Insurance Company. Dan- .
bury, was-discharged and the corpora- .

lor court for Fairfleld County .Iune 27.
