1t is one OF the curiosities of politics
that the Mckinley bill. which is Mckin-

of Governor Dingley, Senator Aldrich and
Secretary Blaine, with more less super

INSURANCE. RESTRICTIONS.
Correspondence with the German
Government on the Subject.

WASHINGTON, Feb 1.-THE President
to-day sent to the House, in answer to
resolution of inquiry. all of the corre-
spondence had with the government of
Germany relative to the restrictions placed
upon American insurance companies in
Prussia. 1t is shown by the correspondence
submitted that on April 27 1895. the Mutual
Life Insurance Company of New York was
notified TO conform to certain stipulated
Prussian methods within fortnight on
pain of the cancellation of its concession.
Immediately on hearing of this acting
Secretary Uhl sent cable message to En-
Dassador Runyon stating, on representa-
tlons from the company, that the COM
panys methods in Germany had been un-
changed since the concession was given
and that 1t was impossible to frame

Tor the belief that the necessary result
OF the course lately adopted by the Prus-
sian authorities in respect to the Mutual
Lie insurance Company would be to give
TO the beneficent principle of comfy a re-
Strfcted and uncertain operation"
A long correspondence followed the with
drawal of the concession by the Prussian
government The last important communi-
cation in the correspondence is from Mr.
Runyon to Secretary Olney under date of
Jan. >. 1t shows that the imperial secre-
tary had Informed Mr.. Runyon that the
matter of the reconsideration OF the with
drawal OF the concession would be con-
sidered, and that the subject would be re-
ferred by the new Prussian Minister for
Foreign Affairs to new experts on his ac-
