of SI.50 per day of twelve hours,
but retained the men who stood
faithful to the company during the

debate between the carmen, their
attorneys and the president of the
company, the strike was declared
off, cars were run down from the
sheds and by s o'clock cars were

Office of Alamo Fire Insurance
Company of San Antonio, Texas.
| SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Aug. l, 1894
To the People of Texas:
The adoption of the Equitable
CO-Insurance Clause" by the in
surance companies doing business
in Texas was not done in corner ;
neither did the alamo" shirk its
share of the responsibility in eX-
planning to an anxious public the
reasons for such a step at that
time.
The widespread interest which
has since been taken throughout
the state in the prevention of fires,
and the really remarkable falling
off of losses since the adoption of
that clause, demonstrates clearly
that the "principle" so far has
worked a public benefit.
1t is with regret, therefore, that
circumstances compel us to take a
stand which means the abolish
ment of the Equitable Co-Insur-
ance Clause" at this time from the
future writings of this company.
We would prefer its use until the
end of this year; or until such
time as much needed legislation on
the situation could be secured.
But duty points out to us differ
ent path.
The "Alamo," is the only Texas
fire insurance company; and, as
such, forms a natural check to the
greed of foreign corporations, and
barrier to overbearing dealings.
AS long as there could be coop
Grafton in a proper way and for
Legitimate purposes, there was no
danger to the public good. But
when an organization such as the
Texas Fire Underwriters associa-
ton is used, Gas this one has BEEN,
for the furtherance of unwise and
oppressive methods, then the same
becomes not only farce but also a
menace to the citizenship of the
state.
We hereby give notice, therefore,
that we will not be dictated to by
the Texas Fire Underwriters asso-
citation in any way, shape or form.
We believe it has outlived it's use
fulness.
We will hereafter issue our poll
cies without the Equitable Colin
surance Clause; and we call on the
citizens of Texas to support us in
this our stand.
The people have now learned a
lesson from the Equitable Coin
surance Clause; and the indica-
tions are that their continued care
and interest in all methods looking
to the protection of the insurer as
we'll as of the assured can be relied
on without its further use, and we
believe that the legislature will
give to both the needed relief at it's
next sitting.
