Effect of Larger Business and Better
Plans.
THE MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF
NEW YORK

Is notc doing sir times as much business per
dnnum as Il did nine years ago, and nearly
all of it is done upon the ne1o plans, which
combine in one contract guaranteed in
surance, endowment, aud life incomes,
with dividends deferred to date named
in each policy.
The amount of insurance in force and
the annual income have more than
doubled since 1884. In that year the in
como was S19,O95. 1854. In 1892 1t was
$40, 23s .Ss5.24.
In nine years the company has received
III premiums and interest the enormous
sum of S257, 13l, 766.09 and has paid out
during that period S186. 900. 920.95, In
creased its surplus $40. 531. III. go, and paid
cash dividends Of $4,000 900.
The payment of so large an amount in
current dividends. and at the same time
gaming so large an increase OF surplus
while making the largest gains in new
business ever accomplished. is phenome-
nal feat in life-insurance management.
MORA. When you insure get the best

THOUGHT OFFICER ACTED RIGHT.
Mr. Smith Exoneratss the Policeman Who
Used His Club.

Nseu Ills NiuUs
The following letter. written without
solicitation, was forwarded yesterday and
fully explains itself:
RICHMOND. Va, July 8, 1898.
Captain j. B. Angle, Second Police Station,
city:
Dear Sir,-The unfortunate occurrence
on Tenth street last Sunday evening,
Judging from an article in this mornings
DISPATCH. seems to be lingering In the
mind of the public to such an extent as TO
Justify. if not TO demand, an explanation:
/ had the honor to be employed as counsel
for the man who was struck by the police
officer. went the Police Court with the
impression and feeling that whatever was
the outcome OF the case against my client
that the policeman's conduct de-
served investigation at the hands OF
the Police Board. The evidence OF
all the eye-wltnesses. however OF
which there were some four or
five. convinced me that the Policeman
was thoroughly justifiable in what he did.
The man was drunk, un1uestionably. and
made threat against the officer, coupled
with a motion OF his right hand towards
the hip-pocket, as if TO draw weapon.
1t was then, and not until then, that the
officer struck him with his club. This
was the testimony of several eye-wit-
nesses, who also concurred in the opinion
that the officer was exceedingly patient IN
his treatment of the prisoner, endeavoring
by kindness and persuasion to get him 20
tne station-house.
Our police force possess the confidence
of the community to such an extent, and
deserve 1t so entirely. that 1T gives me
pleasure 10 write ting letter. which you
can make such use of as you see fit.
Very respectfully. II. NJ. SMITH. JR.
The article to which Mr.. Smith refers
was q card written on Monday last, but
for which room could not be made until
yesterday. The author of the card wit
messed the arrest from q short distance.
and like others who saw 1t, was OF the
opinion that the officer was hasty. In the
use of his club. In other words, that
having called on citizen to assist him,
the policeman ought TO have been able
to keep the prisoner from shooting with
out clubbing him. The officer who made
the arrest is one of the best men on the
force and there is no doubt that the cir
cumstances were very trying.
