THE FIFTIETH ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
CONNECTICUT MUTUAL LIFE
INSURANCE COMPANY.
To the Members:

To the Members:
Fifty years ago a few men living IN
Hartford became interested in the then
novel scheme OF lie Insurance They
had no knowledge OF its science but were
attracted by its promised result-tne pro-
lection OF the family against the money
loss incurred through the death OF us
bread-winner. A New England com
munty, with its steady ways, It's sODflety
OF temper and habit. Its many homes,
Snelterlng industrious. frugal tnflIly
households, its pervading sentiment Of
family affection, and its strong sense OF
duty, seemed to them proper nelu LOT
the proposed benehcence. MOI desiring 70
make money out of 10, but simply 10 give
this protection at its actual cost 70 all
needing 1t, they determined 70 make
mutua! company. And so me connecticut
Mutual Life Insurance company was
born, being chartered at the May SeS-

other occasion will be chosen TO set Tor n
some of the more interesting details or
the company's history, its careful pro-

bases of its calculations, ana IFS more
scientific and equitable adjustments IN
the matters OF returns OF surplus ana the
application of reserves on lapsing policies.
For the purposes of this report it Is sur

better abe TO judge OF the treatment ac-
corded them by their several companies IN
ances. etc The knowledge would remove
prejudice as TO those companies which are
doing right. and would make perfectly
clear the precise character Of the specula-
tive or Investment policies so greatly
in vogue, and would show what must first
be lost by somebody mat IL may be won
by somebody else
We agree to pay certain sums on the
occurrence OF a certain event To do this
We must have premiums large enough TO
pay running expenses, the death claims,
and provide a reserve for the greater
mortality that will come with the increas-
ing age of the business We can earn IN
terest on that reserve while we hold 1t.
So we assume a maximum death rate a
maximum expense rate, and minimum
rate Of interest, and calculate oar pre-
miums and the reserve TO be laid aside
out OF them on those three assumptions.
II the death losses and expenses are less
than We assumed, we save the difference
from the premium; If the interest is more,
we save that also. There are Sundry
other incidental items. Here is an exhibit
of the operation of these several factors
in the Connecticut Mutual in 1885.

From a legal and governmental point of
view out strength is much greater than
our own calculations show. We are re-
quired to compute our liabilities on the
assumption that we will earn per cent
annual interest. On all business written
since April /, 1882, we have assumed only
8 per cent. as the basis of calculation
making our liabilities probably over 81 900. :

less) than the department reports will
