this respect, and which limit themselves
mainly to government and State bonds, with
loans on real estate worth at least double the
amount, can permanently secure the entire
confidence Of the public. A security which is
liable to large depreciation, either from its
own uncertain value or by reason Of financial
pressure, is not flt investment for our life
companies, which can really be considered
only In the light Of trustees of the money
deposited in their charge. The trouble that
has arisen among some OF the insurance CON-
panies In England is chiefly owing to their bad
anvestments-to their having been guided, in
fact, more by the interest Of their officers and
directors than by wish to do justice to those
insured with them.
In judging for themselves, the public mani
testify gives preference to long established,
leading companies, the record Of whose trans
actions inspires confidence and offers the best
guarantee for sound and profitable manage
ment-such, for example, as the Mutual Life,
Connecticut Mutual, Mutual Benefit, Knicker-
booker Equitable Life and few others
which might be named as having won abroad,
as well as at home, the credit Of being care
fully and honestly administered.
Invitations have been addressed by Superin-
tendent Miller to the life insurance superin-
tendents and Commissioners of all the differ
ent States to meet in New York city on the
Oath instant. 1t is to be hoped that this con-
vention will attain it's object, which is to
secure, if'possible, friendly cooperation in
promoting uniformity and other desirable i'm
provements In life insurance, business and
legislation throughout the Union.
