Division No. l OF the supreme coart
today rendered an important decis-
Ion of interest to members of frater-
nal insurance associations all over

superintendent of the insurance de.
partment has acted fairly on applica-
lions for license to do business as a
fraternal organization and has de"id-
ed that such association Is not a fra
ternal association under the law and
has refused such license, the supreme
court has no right by mandamus to
compel him to reverse his decision

commissioners left here by special
train today. They will be escorted to
their lines under a flag of truce. It
Is expected they will return soon.
President Gonzaga of the Philippine
commission, previous to his departure,
saiu: 1--WE greatly appreciate the
courtesy shown US. We have spent
some time with your commissioners,
incidentally considering the American
constitution. Its principles impress us
profoundly.
THE plan of government offered the
Philippines seems in theory a good
colonial system. But why should a
nation with your constitution seek to
make colony of distant people who
have been so long fighting against
Spain to secure the same rights your
constitution gives? You fought the
same battle in America when you
fought against England"
In the fighting at San Fernando yes
terday fifty Filipinos were killed and
many wounded The Americans had
two men killed and twelve wounded.
