last night listened to I. c. Coogan, the
San francisco insurance lawyer, tell why
mutual insurance companies should not
be allowed to do business in the State.

man Mckelvey toll why they were insti-
tuuons OF which any State should be
proud. There are three bills before the
committee, one Of which is copy Of the
Bretz bill of 1893. The MCGOWAN bill is
COPIED from the Minnesota statutes, re-
lating to mutual insurance companies,
while that of McKelvev is taken from
ike statutes Of the State Of Illinois.
1T was determined to make careful

county companies, as it is thought dan
gerous to allow mutual company un-

NO SUMMER CONCERTS,
Subscriptions to the Scheel
Guarantee Fund Are
Returned.
John PARROT Says the Amount
Received Was Quite In
adequate.

All prospect of summer season OF
chamber concerts by the Scheel soloists is
at an end, for John L. PARROT, the
president of the Metropolitan Musical
Society, has written to the various sub
scribers to the guarantee fund returning
the amounts donated during the last
three months and stating that owing to an
insufficient amount having been sub
scribed it has been deemed impossible to
give concerts during the summer months.
The fact is that the subscriptions to the
guarantee fund for retaining Scheel's solo,
lists, which were limited to sums varying
from 81 to SIS, have come in very tardily,
and this has made tie Metropolitan
Musical Society feel that it would be un-
wise to commence a series of concerts
without sure prospect of having funds to
defray the expense of such an undertake
ing, particularly as the majority of the
audience would have been those who had
the right to enter gratis, concert tickets
having been promised to all subscribers.
If $500 ior $1,000 had come in the concerts
would have been given, but during the
three months which have elapsed since the
subscription list was opened $512 was the
sum total subscribed.
The Metropolitan Musical Society is still
in existence, however, and next winter will
probably make itself felt as a factor in the
local musical world, though there is a
general feeling that if tombstone, the
agent who drought out Ysaye, fulfl1s his
promise of bringing Walter Damrosch's
German opera company to San Francisco
in November every local musical enter
prise would be swamped On the other
hand, Johnstones hackers would have to
build costly opera-house, and though
many people believe that he has signed a
contract with men of wealth here, no one
can form guess as to who these men are.
1t was stated confidently last night by a
member of the Metropolitan Musical So
ciety that no members of that organiza-
ton had signed with tombstone, but that
their society wanted to see whether Dam
rosch was really coming before laying any
plans for the winter season.
