1uent Summarizing tho Standing OF In
surance Companies
Special Dispatch to The Tribune.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Feb. 15.-Gov. Palmer and
Gov. Robinson for the defendants, and District
Attorney Connolly for the Government, occu-
pied most of the day in submitting their argu-
meuts in the Pekin cases on trial for
the last. two days. The case was
then given to the Jury, which,
after being out two hours, reported
that they bad not decided upon their verdict,
but would be able to agree. They were accord
ingly excused till Monday morning. 1t is hc-
lieyed that this indicates the conviction of two
or three of the defendants, who are tonight
very anxious as to the result, This is the weakest
Of the Government cases, and there arc still
greater tribulations in store for the Pekin
crowd, especially for those who have for so
many years successfully fought all prosecution.
The Auditor has just completed tabular
statement summarizing the standing OF all the
fire and marine insurance companies authorized
to do business in Illinois, complied from their
annual statement. This makes the follow
ing showing: Eleven joiptcstock and mu-
tuai companies have S3,SH, 3S4.l5 IN ad-
mitted assets, and surplus OF S3,265.7 .75l.SG
