Rumor That Intereat on Northern Pacific Ter
minaI Firsts May Be Reduced.
Tho first mortgage per cent. bonds of tho
Northern Pacific Terminal Company sold yestcr-
day at 20. decline of over seven points for tho
week. The decline is due to the attitude of tho
Oregon Railway and Navigation Company un-
der the reorganization. The Terminal Company
is leased at 6per cent. on tho bonds jointly by
the Northern Pacific. tho Southern Pacific Com
pany, and the Oregon Navigation Company. In
past years, when the Oregon Navigation failed
to meet its share of the guarantee. tho other
two companies advanced the money. In case of
default, tho Southern Pacific has always been
ready to take the entire property, and it is said
now to he satisfied TO continue at the per cent.
basis. 1t has been suggested, however, since
the reorganization Of the Oregon Navigation.
which cancels its obligations under the lease.
that tho Terminal bondholders might be per
sunded to accept q firm tripartitc 8 per cent.
guarantee in lieu Of their present security. Ii is
said that the Northern Pacific managers are in
favor OF reduction Of the interest TO per cent.

Insurance Craze.

Among the curiosities Of the times in
England not the least remarkable Is the
insurance craze. which has just taken
on new phase. This is insuring against
England going TO war with different
nations. The various premiums show
the estimate of the insurance compan-
les views on the subject, and, therefore.
cannot fail to be of interest. Thus the
possibility of war between England and
any of the three great European powers
Germany, France and Russia-is
rated at four pounds per cent; with the
other European powers, except Turkey
or the Transvaal. at five guineas per
cent, while insurance against war with
any power at all is obtained by pre-
MUM of eight guineas per eent.-N. Y.
