w,Ia Cat 1nsurance Companies.

| The insurance commissioner Of Penn
svlvania has made a report to the attorney
! general of that state within the last few
! davs which shows that there are more than
a dozen insurance companies within his
jurisdiction which are practically swindling
| concerns. Some Of them have no assets
whatever, and others have no assets which
are available to pay losses. All OF them.
however, appear TO be writing policies, and
thew manage somehow or other 20 avoid
paving losses. In the cases of some of them
the men who are supposed TO compose the
board Of directors know nothing about the
business of the companies and give no atten-
ton to it. Most Of the policies are dis
tri buted outside Of the state. and, as near as
can be learned, the agents put all the pre-
miums they collect into their own pockets.
This is certainly a disgraceful condition
of affairs, and it is strange that a great
state like Pennsylvania permits it to exist
within her borders. While the governor
is hunting down political wrong~doers it
would be well for him to give some atten-
ton to crooked insurance companies. If
there are no laws by which such companies
necessary delay in enacting them. The
people outside Of Pennsylvania who are
being solicited to insure in the wild cat
companies cannot very well know whether
or not such companies are solvent and doing
legitimate business. They expect that
the state will see to it that all the insur-
ance companies within her borders, to
whom she has granted charters, are solvent
and deal honestly with those who patronize
them.
The facts published by the insurance COM
missioner, however, indicate that the state
has been very remiss in this matter. and
that the insurance commissioner has been
very tsrdy in making known the facts re-
lative TO the crooked companies. How
much money these companies have collected
from innocent policy holders no one knows,
or is likely to known, but it is quite certain
that their policies are not worth much.
The insurance commissioner should have
known their character long ago and put
the people on guard against them. Pennsyl-
vania has been under the control of the re-
publicans SO long, however that the officials
are too much interested in looking
out for themselves to pay much
attention to the welfare OF
the people. But Gov. Pattison is giving the
officials shaking up and a better condition
of affairs may be looked for in the near
future.

Ion the fair grounds, in course! exclaimed
Mr. Huckeberry in such an uudiSgused tone of
innocent surprise that Simpson forked over the
tickets before he could recover his equanimity.'
