antered in the Post-Oflice'as a Neflw
insurance Business in -i 893.
The fire losses in the United States
in- 1893 were larger than for any year
since 1871, footing up the enormous to-
tal of ‘ $140,000,000. ~
Inspite of the consequent drain 0
the funds of theinsurance companies,
however,.’few have abandoned the busi-
ness. But we are rapidly approaching
a condition where, unless better means
cf extinguishing tire can be introduced
and maintained in many of our cities,
rates will have to be increased. A busi-
ness cannot always be continued at a
loss. The turning point must come
some time or the business must of ne-
cessity" be relinquished. .,
It seems a worthy suggestion, there-
fore, to property holders generally,
that instead of making it necessary to
increase the rates for the benefitoi the
companies, additional apparatus for the
protection of prOperty from tire losses
be installed by our city governments
and paid for by a slight increase in tax-
ation.
It is wiser to pay agfew mills more
per thousand in city taxes and have less
to pay in insurance premiums.
There is another important reform
that all honest insurance companies
should enter upon, before increasing
their already burdensome rates of pre-
miums. That is to never insure one
penny more than they expect-"to pay in
event of a loss. It would prevent a
large percentage of fire losses, if in-
surance companies would unite in a de-
termination to allow no piece of prop-
erty to be insured over its actual value.
Jealousy of the American Flag.
There is great complaint among the
bankers and business men of New York
because the British government per.
sists in sending mail matter to this
country by the slowest ships out of
Queenstown, apparently for no other
reason, says the X’Vas'hington Post, than
that they fly the English flag, whereby
iii/portant correspondence is often from
one to two days behind; the mail that is
dispatched via Southampton direct.
Inasmuch as mails from the United
States to England are sent by the fast-
est ships without p..rt;oular regard to
thoflag they carry, we can see no rea-
son why the British government should
not do the same thing in this direction.
Not only should due regard be had for
the principle of reciprocity in this that-
t::‘. but. it would be greatly to the ad-
vantage of business interests 'on both
sides. .
. It is quite as essential to the London
merchant to have the speediest possible
mail delivery in New York as it is for
the New York merchant to reach his
London correspondent by the most di-
rect and expeditious route, and it
makes no diflerence to either whether
the mails are forwarded by English or
American ships. It looks now as though
there was more or less jealousy of the
fast American liners at Southampton
at the bottom oi the trouble, but upon
a proper presentation of the case the
Eagle-h government can probably be
induced to so arrange its contractsas
to give the best service to the general
American and British public both from
Southampton and. Queenstown. This
is what the United btates is doing and
it is fairly entitled to the same consid-
eration. It goes without saying that
the fastest steamers should be employed
to perform the service.

cause it cured him,
take ins word. Here is Masssichusetls’
greatest and foremost statesman whom
all our readers know, Hon. Exbpeaker
Noyes of the Home of Representatives,
who tells you what this wonderful med-
icine, Dr Greene's Nervura Blood and
Nerve Remedy has done for him, and
advises you to take it; and get ,well, if
you are sick, weak. nervmr, sleepless,
dubiiitated or run down in health. He
assures you that it cured hixn‘and he is
positive that it will cure you.
The newspapers say of Hon. Mr.
Noyes: “No citizen of~Boston stands
higher in public estimation than be.
A lawyer of the greatest eminence and
highest ability. he is a born leader of
men. In public life for nearly half a
century, he is a representative citizen,
one of the most popular and best known
men in the United States.
“He was elected a Senator and was
eight times returned to the House of
Representatives. It shows in what high
estimation he is held by the people that
he was five different years elected
speaker of the House of Representa-
tives. Gov. Long made him a Justice,
knowing that he is of unquestioned in»
tegrity, superior ability and great cor.-
scientiousness. A man of majestic
brain, he is a great statesman and has
few equals as an orator. He was at one
time a candidate for Lieut. Governor
and he nominated Alger for President,
in the National Convention."
Such is the eminence and standipg
of the gentleman who writes the fol-
lowing for the public welfare:
