the difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion

treat, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess
than calculation.
It has been found by experience, that the total annual lo4ses of the
different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the
amount of annual Premiums received by each.
It is of the higheat iraportance, both to the Insured and Insurers,
true such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the
true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu-
rance Company is established.
The true rate of Premium for Fire Insurance can only be ap-
goached through Classification and Average, which has net hitherto
been sufficiently acted or systematically applied.
Whatever be the nominal rate. the bonus or return periodically to
the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as.
security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the insurer
is largely interested in this question, and will consult his interest by
supporting a system where, by a careful combination
the of Cl

The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant analysis of its own
experience, from time to titre, adopt such rates of Premium as the
nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange-
ments as regards tariffs with other offices.
With this view an annual investigation will be made into each
class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fluty per cent. of the nett
excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have
been in force for three years.
Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon
