THE MARKETS.
Wall StreetReyIew.

New York, July "A veritable midsum-
mer dullness settled upon the market for
securities today and a further step was
taken towards the stagnant condition to
which the market has seemed to be COM
ing for two days past. There was no
feature of significance of importance dur
ing the day. Dealings were very much
smaller than yesterday or for many days
past, variations Were small and unimpor-
tant and no animation was manifested
at any point in the market The pros
pect of only half day of trading tomor-
row, followed by double holiday doubt
less had its effect in curta,ing operations
and discouraging ventures upon new op-
erations. The waiting and the semi
stagnation were accompanied by quite a
marked irmness of tone in nearly all the
leading stocks. The total sales of all
stocks for the day fall below 1S0 900 shares.
Four-sevenths of this amount was cred
tied to st. Paul, Sugar, Burlington and
Chicago Gas. None of the leading stocks
ranged as widely as a point, except
Sugar and the leading industrial stocks
and some Of the coalers. The small net
changes are divided between gains and
losses in the prominent stocks. Totals
sales OF stocks today were 1888 52S shares.

at the hands Of the Legislature. We have

duty 1t is to regulate railroad fares and

Insurance Companies Must Pay Losses.


Insurance Companies Must Pay Losses.
There was something of sensation in
insurance circles last week when Super
intendent OF Insurance Webb McNall
issued a letter in which ne states that he
will withhold the licenses Of certain
companies until the Hillmon claim is
paid. This Hillmon case has been
in court for about seventeen years.
The case has been tried in the Federal
court at least four times. IL one case
the jury found verdict for the de-
fendant, but in the other three no agree
ment was reached. In at least two Of
these cases the jury stood eleven for
defendant TO one for the companies.
The companies interested are the New
York Life, the New York Mutual Life
and the Connecticut Mutual.
Any reader Of newspapers is familiar
with the details Of this case. The COM
panies have done everything in their
power to locate Hillmon, but the fact
that they have not produced him, not
withstsnding that they could undoubt-
edly have done 90 il he was still alive,
shows that they have no case. There
fore McNall, believing that further
litigation would accomplish no good
purpose and that the companies were
justly liable for the loss, issued to
one OF them the following letter:
"Your annual report for the year end
ing December 81, 1896, has been received,
and in reply will say, as to issuing Ii
cense for the ensuing year for your
to do business in this State,
that on evidence satisfactory to this de-
psrtment, l am satisfied that your com.
pany has not dealt fairly with Mrs. Sally
e, Hillmon, in refusing to pay the death
loss and in the litigation Of the same,
pertaining to her deceased husband.
Hence, this department refuses to issue
TO the Connecticut Mutual Life Insur-
AnCe company license to do business in
the State for the ensuing year."
A similar letter was sent to the other
AS these companies are do
ing very profitable business in Kansas,
and as the payment Of this claim would
absorb but small portion Of the profits
of Kansas business for one year, the
will probably settle. This
Will dispose OF a case Of which the
public has wearied, and do justice to
woman who has been deprived of her
rights for years.
