Speaking of the showing made, Commits
sioner Clunie said:
AS a matter of information, have pre-
| pared a table showing the amount of
business done In this state since the pas
sage of the act of 1885 by the thirty-four
foreign companies now doing business here.
This shows that the premiums received ag-
gregate s27.953, 111.21; the losses paid amount
to $12, 731, 62S39. l have allowed So per cent
of premiums received as the cost of writ
ing the insurance; this figure is the one
generally claimed by underwriters as cor
rect. Deducting the sum of losses paid
and expense of writing from the total
premiums received, leaves a balance of
s., 52l, 321.3S The total license fees of these
companies under the act of 1885 due the
state amount to 1919 53O.9S; deducting this
from the aforesaid balance leaves a net
profit of 1928, 6S0.15, which immense sum
of money has been diverted from this state
by these companies, which have failed and
refused to pay the small proportional
amount due for license fees. While l have
figured on the business done since 1885, it
is important to note that some of the
companies concerned have done business
here but for part of that period.
In marked contrast to the action of
these foreign companies in endeavoring
by technicalities to defeat the will of the
people of this state Is the action of the
American companies in making the pay
ments required by our laws. During the
time these foreign companies have re-
fused to make these payments every insur-
ance company from the states of Penn
sylvania, Massachusetts. New Jersey,
Minnesota and New York doing business
in this state has paid to this department in
taxes per cent of the amount received by
them for premiums on business transacted
in California. Had these American COM
panies received the premiums that are
shown by this table to have been received
by the foreign companies. they would
have paid the state in taxes thereon the
sum of $559060.
In the event of any technical decisions
of the courts preventing the enforcement
of these duties. shall appeal to the next
legislature to enact law making the pay
ment of the various amounts due absolute
ly imperative upon these companies, with
penalties sufficient to enfore compliance
with its terms.

Yesterdays Transactions on the Board
of Trade

CHICAGO, Jan. 6-News affecting wheat
before trading commenced was chiefly
bearish and that was clearly the effect it
had upon the spectators. May which
closed yesterday at 907sc, opened at from
so down to S94 sold very sparingly at 500
90b and then slid off quickly to S99s. For
two hours the range of the fluctuations
were practically limited between the ex-
tremes mentioned. The main points of
the early market information was as fol-
lows. Liverpool quoted decline of 11sd
to start with and the reason for it was in
one cablegram ascribed to liberal offerings
of Argentine wheat and in another to
Thoman's report and export surplus of 100,
OCl000 still available in this country. A
private cablegram from Paris said that
the wheat was rapidly declining and the
market was weak and depressed. The
Price Current remarked of the condition of
winter wheat that it was generally pro-
tected by snow. The only bullish feature
of the early news was the small Chicago
receipts, only al cars being received. The
up-turn to the market was helped by lib
eral clearances from Atlantic ports, which
in wheat and flour amounted to 56dbG0u BUSH
els. NV York and Baltimore reported
fresh business done for export. Closing
cables made Liverpool latest prices from
Id to 1sd lower than those of the previous
day. Several local shorts bought steadily
for an hour when the price Of May was
between S9A and 90S. and when the gen.
eral crowd, who was short tried to buy
they found the saleable wheat had all been
absorbed May closed 90a4 bid or 1sc higher

HAVANA, Jan. 10.-Sunday at the
residence of DR.. Villiosola. of the spe-
cial committee appointed by Senior
Bruzon, governor of Havana and Con-
sui General Fitzhugh Lee, to superin-
tend the work, took place the first dis

In leading editorial La Discussion
asks the insurgents, in the name Of
humanity and for the sake of their
mothers, wives, sisters and children
dying of starvation, to lay down their
arms and to make peace with the gov-
ernment.
The insurgent leader, Anastasio
Nunez, and five other insurgents have
surrendered in the province of Santa
Clara.
It is reported that the fierce criti.
cisms that have appeared in Ell Recon-
centrado on Senior Fernandez De Cas-.
tro are inspired by Senor Bruzon, civil
governor of Havana. They have caus.
ed much comment and created divis-
ion among the autonomists who are
attacking each other.
About . o'clock Sunday afternoon
while service was in progress in the
cathedral, man named Ramon Wives
entered and fired several revolver
shots.
The bullets struck the image of st.
Peter, destroying the chalice and q

The shooting caused the greatest
alarm and the people dispersed amid
wild confusion.
Wives who was promptly disarmed
by those near him, has been sent to a

SEMINOLE NATION.

An Alarming State of Riot Prevails and an
Uprising May Result.

the Republic from Muskogee, l. T.,
says:
An alarming state of riot prevails in

diate steps are taken by the United
States authorities bloody Indian up
rising may result:
This is on account of the burning of
two Indians by whites for the murder
and outrage of Mrs. Leard, January s.
Late Sunday night DIR. c. P. Linn,
chief physician of the Seminole ma.
ton. telegraphed to both Indian
Agent Wisdom and Marshal Bennett
for assistance in quelling the state Of
war that prevailes in the nation. He
confirmed the news of the stake burn.
ings and gave the names of the suffe r.
ers, Lincoln McGresey and Palmer
Samson, two young Seminoles
Both the Indians came from respect
able Seminole families and their fear-
full death has reused their friends and
relatives to frenzy. Dr. Linn had just
arrived from the scene of the burning
and states that both bodies were burn
ed and mutilated in a most horrible
manner and are unrecognizable.
All the authorities here recognize
that the situation is nearer bordering
upon dangerous Indian uprising than
any in recent years and are taking
prompt measures to quell it.

question of policy in our nation whether il is
expedient for us to accept Cuba. Many think
that it is against our interest to accept her.
As regards the considerations of honor, we
are not so sure that our obligation IS against
it. We certainly did not engage in this war
to acquire Cuba. Those who charge that we
did, falsely accuse us. But we did enter upon
1t to give the people of Cuba a free govern
ment, and to afford them such a flee govern
ment as they should choose for themselves.
If they choose the government of the United
States, it is an incident of the war. 1t is not,
we think one OF our desire, and certainly not
one of our contemplation. CUBA, if she comes
to us, therefore, must come from the inevta-
BILE progress of events, rather than from any
purpose on our part to attain her.
We have presented the above consldera-
tions, because 1t is time that the people of the
United States were rejecting upon them.
The subject may very early in the future APP
neal n them.

FEEDING THE WORLD.
Americas Remarkable Food Expectation
as Shown by Recent Ofcial Reports.


as shown by Recent onicial Reports.
The record of the most remarkable
year in our export trade has been com
plcted by the bureau of statistics so
far as relates to the expectation of
wheat. corn and other breadstuifs
pork beef and other provisions. cot
ton. and mineral oils These articles
form a large percentage of the total
exports aside from the manufactures
The figures show in most cases
large increase in quantity and value
of the articles exported, though in
some cases. notably mineral oils and
cotton. the export price per unit has
averaged less during the year than in
the preceding year.
The cotton exported during the year
increased from 3109.7549l9 pounds to
3.341. 49,, 800 pounds. while the total
value last year was S230.S90,971 and for
the year just ended 239 9o7i72
The expectation of mineral oil in
creased from 973,514.94G gallon. to L.
OPP 21O.379 gallons yet the total value
in the year just ended was only $50
171.00O against SCI .635.o37 in the pre-
ceding year.
In provisions. including beet, pork
and driry products the value of the
expectations was greater than last
year being $15i454,074. against $137.
13S.0S4 last year.
In wheat. corn, oats and rye the in
crease in both quantities and values
was strongly marked. The expectation
of wheat for the year flour included,
amounted to 215,171,961 bushels, which
exceeded the expectation of any pre-
ceding year except that of 1892 which
amounted to 225665.S12 bushels. The
value of the wheat and flour exported
during the year amounted to S212,89
