INSURANCE

The fact that the Home Insurance
company has Joined the combination of
San Francisco managers gives consid
cradle added strength to the compact.
The companies outside are now few in
number. the chief among them being
the Northwestern National, the Thurin-
|'gia and the Continental.
The feeling among local agents con-
tinues uneasy, and there is little chance
OF the cut in commissions being accept
ed gracefully. A leading agent said
yesterday that though he was doing a
large business. he could not afford to
continue 1t at the proposed reduction
In compensation. He was Of opinion
that the agents should stand united on
the proposition of minimum rate Of
20 per cent. While the managers might
defeat the agents by handling them in
detail, such a result would not be pos
sible II the agents would but stand to-
gether.
Among visiting insurance men may
be noted Captain r. G. Brush of the
Liverpool and London and Globe, Ed
Niles OF the North British and Mercan-
tile. w. j. Landers of the Lion and Col
VIM. Macdonald of the London and Ian
cashire.
A. Dalton Harrison, manager of the
Union Assurance society Of London, has
gone to England for a three months
visit.

the Alliance, has been appointed city

shire Is spending his vacation in Homo

E. S. Fowler, Pacific coast manager Of

pany of New York. died at his home in
Oakland last Tuesday.
The $4,000 deposit law requined from
fire insurance companies in New Mexico
has passed the assembly and been sign
ed by the governor. This is the most alb
surd measure passed by any Legislature
this past winter, Says the Boston Stand
ard, and as there is only one company
(the Fireman's FUND.- whose premium
receipts In that territory anywhere near
approximate that figure. the most Of the
companies will probably find 1t expedi-
ent to withdraw after their present L.

The weeks net gains have been re-
duced as was the case last week by the
profit-taking of professional operators
on Friday. The manipulation of the
market by the large interests which
have embarked upon a bull campaign
was very obvious during the week and
strenuous efforts were made to keep the
course of prices upwards by vigorous
support at weak points, and by lnGtlng
sharp rises in individual stocks to sus-
tain the general list.
The weeks returns of railroad earn
ings have made a remarkably favorable
showing, the November statement of
New York Central being a notable eX-'
ception. Roads in the South and South
west have shown especially heavy in
creases and their stocks have shown
the largest gains in price. Money has
continued cheap and easily obtapable
and there have been offerings of Chi
cago money on time loans in this mar
ket. Notwithstanding the ease of local
money rates and in spite of sharp stiff
fleming of discount rates in London and
Berlin. the foreign exchange market has
shown increasing weakness. Actual
rates for sterling exchange have fallen
half cent the week. due to the offerings
of bulls against grain and cotton and
to obtain an abatement of the invest
ment demand for long sterling. Chicago
credits are reported to be loaned in
Berlin at 45s per cent to the extent of
several million dollars.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Dec. 11.-To-day's stock
market reflected the tendency of profess
sional traders to close up contracts at
the end of a week rather than keep
them open over Sunday, and also ma
tural reaction toward higher level
after yesterdays relapse in prices.
There was some bear pressure against
prices at the opening, Manhattan being
driven down ~ and Sugar yielding "a
point after a small gain. But this
lead failed to induce any large follow
ing and it became apparent that yester-
days liquidation had run it's course for
the present. The bull contingent was
prepared to offer vigorous support to
weak spots and large buying orders for
their account turned the tide. Sugar
was the centre of the markets strength
and the firm resistance of prices drove
the bears to cover. There was no.
ticeable sluggishness of price movement
in some of the most prominent stocks in
the market ON the rise. Sugar was
quite buoyant and rose to within about
two points of the highest of the week
and closed with a net gain of IA. It's
range for the day was three points.
Manhattan showed a good recuperative
power and rallied within a fraction of
last nights close. Beside the technical
causes for the rise, the market was
aided by the recurring possibility that
a decision may be handed down by the
Supreme Court ON Monday in the Ne
braska maximum freight rate case.
Street traders in railroad securi-
aintsm an abiding faith that when
nis decision does come it will be in
favor of the railroads.
Northern Pacific preferred enjoyed the
benefit of the first dividend declared
yesterday by the directors since the re-
organization of the company and of the
