suraIscc companes for their policies. Tho sum
varies, but VIC nrc more liberal than a great
many companies. There Is nothing in Tho coti-
trnct which coinpcls tho Company 10 give any
cash whatever. We have dono Il, bctaise wo
want to get tho Republic contracts out Of tho

the transfers Is, we don't want to incur
the expense Incident to the management

would bo unjust to the, policyholttcrs and stock
holders Of tho National to DO It. We give a

not n good risk We will not take him, and he
must keep tho Republic policy, which "c believe

Mr.. Hutlcr also stated that the rumors re-
fcrred to were doubtless put In circulation by a
former ngcnt, who owes the Republic ub0ut
