NEWS Of THE STATE.
TELEGeAPHlC REPORTS OF THE
EVENTS OF INTEREST.

Matters Selected with an Eye to the
Happenings in the State During the Past
Few Days CuIied from the Reports.
Lansing. Mich, Jan. 1.-THE anti
Pingree senator's have secured the adop-
ton of a resolution which so increases the
senate standing committees that the
force of the appointments by the lieu
tenant governor, however favorable
to the governor and his measures, has
been effectually broken. The commit
tees were increased in every instance
where Pingree measures are liable to
be considered, except the railroad COM
mittee. The test vote was to Is, with
five senators absent, three of whom are
known to be anti-Pingree and one
doubtful, which almost positively as
sures two-thirds vote against any
Pingree proposition.
An attempt was made by the Pingree
men in the house to have the Atkinson
railroad tax bill referred to a special
committee named In resolution offered
by Cheever, the leader of the Pingree
forces. The effort was unsuccessful,
and while the Pingree adherents sue
ceeded in keeping it from going to the
committee on railroads, which Is be-
lieved to be very hostile to the measure,
they were forced to permit Speaker
Adams to name the special committee
Five members Of the railroad commit
tee were given places on the special
committee, and although Cheever was
made chairman, he is in a hopeless mi
nority.-
Lansing. Mich, Jan. 16. - Governor
Pingree will hold up appropriation bills
until the Atkinson bill is passed. When
asked If he was in earnest about hold :
ing up appropriation bills unless the
Atkinson bill is passed, Governor Pin
gree said: Most certainly I am.
don't propose to let any one suffer
physically in the asylums and such
places, but at the same time 1 amt
going to let some people pay taxes for
these educational institutions unless
every one helps pay the taxes.
II believe the mining school is a good
thing and that the university is neces-
sary, but we can live a while without
them. They have smart professors in
these institutions. Well, let them use
their influence over our legislature for
equal taxation. If they are afraid to
talk out let them say So"
Lansing, Mich, Jan. 1S.-In the legis-
lature bills have been introduced pro-
viding for graduated income tax and
for an inheritance tax and to prevent
the consolidation of express offices in
cities of the fourth class and larger.
Also to require fire insurance companies
to nav the full face of the policy in
case Of total loss.
Lansing, Mich, Jan. 1S.-Julius c.
Burrows was elected senator yesterday
SO far as the separate vote of the houses
could do so. Today announcement will
close the incident. In the house Sena-
tor Burrows had Sc votes, and Daniel J.
Campau had s. In the senate there are
81 Republicans and Democrats.

TO CUT INSURANCE RATES.
Foreign Companies Doing Business In
Michigan Agree to Reduction.

Michigan Agree to Reduction.
Lansing, Mich, Jan. 1S.-At the COM
mencement of the year Commissioner
Campbell called upon all foreign fire
insurance companies doing business in
Michigan for a statement as to their
connection with the Michigan inspec-
ton bureau or any other organization
which fixed rates for all to observe. A
demand was also made for information
as to insurance written on Michigan
property through the home office or
through agents residing outside of
Michigan and specific information was
asked concerning every policy issued on
Michigan property during the last call
endar year.
This demand led to repeated confer
ences between the commissioner and
company managers, and the result is
the announcement that an agreement
has been reached whereby the ques-
lions are to be withdrawn on condition
that rates in Michigan will be reduced
Feb. 1, as follows: Five cents upon each
500 of insurance on three-year terms
upon residences and their contents and
corresponding reductions for other
terms and a 10 per cent reduction on
every other class Of property.
Commissioner Campbell expresses the
opinion that this reduction will make
the rates none too high in the aggregate
and that consequently there can be no
valid objection to a compact or the
maintenance of an inspection bureau
which observes this agreement.
