Speech Of Mr.. Lynch on the Geneva Bill.

In the House of Representatives, February
18th, the bill on the Geneva Award being un-
der discussion, Hon. John Lynch addressed
the Honse. His remarks which we find in
the Washington Globe are as follows, but five
minutes being allowed him to address the
House:
Mr.. Lynch. Mr.. Speaker, the hill under
consideration appears to me to be as a whole.
based upon correct principles and well calculat-
ed to carry into effect the provisions of the
treaty in regard to the award for damaces sus-
tanned by reason of the destruction caused by
the rebel cruisers. l think the distribution of
the indemnity received under the treaty is in
the main justly and equitably made. The in
surance companies are very iiberally dealt with,
and am surprised that they are pressing for
greater allowance at the expense of a class of
claimants who were the greatest sufferers by
reason OF the depredations committed by the
rebel cruisers, those who paid war risks for the
protectlon OF their property. Those companies
nave already been paid the losses which they
sustained by the very war premiums which
they now resist the repayment of to the parties
Dy whom they were paid. The basis OF ali IN
surance business is in risks, and paradoxicai as
1t may appear, the profits from insurance re-
suit from loss. The greater the Liability 70
loss the greater the profit Great hazaru SUM sum-
nlates the business, reduces competition, anu
increases the gains of the insurers - :.
Such is generally the result, and .nihA II
was particularly SO during the reDeilon'
