Wipes Out The Premlums.

RATES RECENTLY ADVANCED THROUGH
OUT VERMONT BY INSURANCE PEOPLE.
An insurance man who has paid par
tiCulaT attention to insurance interests
in New England. and who knows the
feeling of many companies in regard to
Vermont business, expressed this opin-
ion on the st. Albans conhagratiOn to a
Globe man last night:
"The conflagratiOn at st. Adams wipes
out all the premiums the fire companies
have been collecting in that place for the
last six years, and, coming on the top of
the bad record the village and State have
had among underwriters for so many
years, will be looked upon as the last
straw by many insurance companies.
Vermont is far and away the worst
State in New England from an insurance
standpoint, and many of the leading COM
panies have withdrawn recently.
The Royal, Queen and Pennsylvania
Insurance Companies withdrew last year
and many of those still doing business in
the State have refused to write lines in
st. Albans. No reason is advanced for
this other than the average border town
is generally improbable to fire insur-
ance companies, and that this one has
been particularly so.
"a few weeks ago the New England
insurance exchange voted to take some
action toward putting rates on a paying
basis, and within the last three weeks
representatives of the different compan-
les have been through the State revising
the rates. The new rates have been
much larger than the old, and even with
the increased prices companies are not
anxious for the business.
Il expect that many companies who
have been waiting for the turn of the
tide, will, after this st. Albans expert
ence, leave the field for the home com
panies, and such of the foreign ones
whose bump of hopefulness is developed
to very marked degree. Boston Globe.

A Libel" Suit,

The Rutland Herald has $40, ,OOO libel suit on
its hands brought by John b. Moore, a grand
juror OF Rutland.-Benningto Banner.
In the course of its exposure of the
operations of the 40 thieves the Herald
and the men connected with it have had
fair share of the annoyances common
incident to hunting vermin, but so far it
has no libel suit, brought by Moore or
any of the others. The report of such a
suit was started by the amiable Burling-
ton Free Press, and was wholly untrue.
A similar report was published in the
same paper year ago or more, also ut
teTly untrue.
However. bringing suit is an easy
matter, and such things may come any
day. But such suits from men close to the
doors of the penitentiary would hardly
cause acute uneasiness.- Rutland Herald.

Spain is beginning to acknowledge
that the Cuban insurrection is not the
trivial affair that she has pretended, but
that 1t is revolt of most serious proper
tions. The insurgents have several thou
sand troops actively engaged in the field.
They are mostly blacks, brave, used to
fire arms, and are most amenable to dis
cipline. The cause is rapidly spreading
among the white population, and they
hope for a general uprising. They are
well supplied with money, are, of course,
used to the climate, and are greatly en-
couraged by, and elated over, their num-
erous victories.
Spain is in bad way financially. It's
people are already taxed to the utmost
limit The Nation is heavily in debt and
its credit is poor. Much money will be
needed to carry on the war The gov
ernment hasn't got 1t, and can't borrow
it, except at ruinously high rate ard
the depreciation of the National credit.
1t is no secret that General Campos re-
lies more on money than force in sup
pressing the insurrection He feels Grip
pied because the government has not
supplied him with liberal sums. His
scheme is to buy off the insurgent lead
ers. This is made the more difficult, not
only by his own lack of funds, but also
by the fact, which is admitted, that the
Cuban leaders themselves are well sup
piled with money.
The question of men is as serious as
that of money. The loss of life in the
last rebellion in killed and victims of vel.
low fever was enormous, 1t has been
estimated as high as two hundred thou.
sand. This is still felt by the Spanish
people, and its repetition is dreaded.
The Spanish troops already in Cuba
consist largely of raw, unframed youths.
They are poorly clad and poorly armed,
are ignorant, and are wholly rnprepared
to endure the terrors of the dreaded yell
low fever season so close at hand For
every Cuban victim of this disease there
will probably be twenty Spanish victims.
A guerilla style of warfare has been
adopted by the Cubans. AS their cause
is constantly growing stronger and more
popular, they can afford to wait for the
appearance of yellow fever, knowing in
the meantime that the financial situation
of the Spanish government grows darker
as the contest is prolonged. Further,
there is said to be growing undercur.
rent of feeling among the masses in
Spain that it would be good thing to
be rid of Cuba. The constant revolts
are too expensive in life and money.

Not to be Thought of.

We are forced to believe that the adj
miral is entirely wrong. Hon. S. Hazel
ton comes from Vermont, place where
even taste of Intoxicating beverages is
unknown and where it would be almost
liquor matter because of the absolute ig-
norance of it's members on any such
question. If there was any liquor around
he might have been overcome by its un-
wonted fumes, but as to the idea of his
taking anything, it is too grotesuue to
be thought of for moment. We acquit
Hon. Seneca Hazelton. without difficulty,
of any such charge. e.-Boston Record.

The Income Tax Killed.
LIsTIC LAW is DECLARED UNCoNsTITU-

LISTIC LAW is DECLARED UNCoNsTITU-
TIoNAL.
By a vote of five to four Monday, the
United States Supreme Court decided
the Income Tax law unconstitutional.
Justices Fuller, Field, Gray, Brewer and
Shiras were those who declared against
the tax. Those in the minority were
Justices Harlan, Brown, White and jack
son.
The conclusions reached by the court
were:
"First-We adhere to the opinion al
ready announced that taxes on real es-
