According to the Insurance Monitor, excel
lent authority on matters pertaining TO that
line Of business, the general depression In life
insurance increases every day. 1t Is not like
the depression In fire insurance, caused by
change In values and hard times, although
the latter, no doubt has something to do with
it. The disease 10 o deep seated distrust, not
In the principle, but In the management OF
life insurance. Among the best managed
companies there has been great care
in the selection OF lives care that will In
future manifest its benefits in increased divi-
dends There has been in these companies,
with few exceptions, great care In the invest
ment Of funds: seldom have their invest
ments failed to pay7 per cent, and rarely
have they resulted In loss. glance at the
items as given in our insurance reports
would astonish common business men with
the soundness and stability Of these invest
ments. These companies have been exceed
ingly careful In keeping at low figure the ex-
penses necessary to run the machinery, most
of them being less than 10 per cent on the
premium income, and nothing on the other
income. In spite Of these facts the want Q.
confidence continues. In fire insurance want
of confidence in any one company only leads TO
transfer Of business from that company to
another; but in life insurance the failure OF
few inferior companies created general
panic, and thousands Of policies in the better
class Of companies lapsed were changed into
paid-up policies, or II new were refused. The
companies that failed had reported millions
OF dollars of assets, and each man, comparing
| the millions with his one or three Thousand
insurance, felt amply secured, until the crash

dreams of dividends and destroying the
bright images Of future help to his family.

GENERAL REMARKS. This has been
clear, cool day, in pleasant contrast with sew
eral of its immediate predecessors. General
trade presents no very encouraging aspects.
There being good inquiry for Cotton during
norton of The day. the sales footed up 5000
bales at steadier prices.
Though prices OF Flour exhibit no duotable
advance the feeling Is steady at our quotations,
the bulk of the business still being done at and
