BIG INSURANCE WAR LIKELY.
"i,ebate Compact" Between Great
Life Concerns 10 End Soon.

New York, Dec. 29.-There Is a strong
possibility OF war between the great life
Insurance companiss with nn the 6eginnlhs
which existed between them and served
10 bind them together in community OF
interest. has terminated and has been
followed by the abrogation OF the agree
ment between the New York Life and
the Equitable Life, under which the same
agents acted for both companies within
certain territory.
The Equitable took the first step In the
sundering of former relations by with
drawing from the rebate contract. The
other companies were opliged 10 toilow
of It's reasons for breaking the rebate un-
derstanding that certain western states
might look upon 1t In the light of trust
and that II did not wish to incur the hos
tility of the authorities.
The New York Life soon afterward re-
ceived notice from the Equitable that one
Of the Equitable's agents, who had been
foreign country, would do so no longer
The New York Life thereupon decided
to put an end to the second agreement,
and has so informed the Equitable OFF,
GERS.
John A. Mccall, president of the New
York Life, dictated the following state
ment In regard TO the matter last night:
THE rebate compact which existed be-
tween all the companies was practically
rendered imperative by the withdra wal
of of the the EagS9s Even shSst %s sgS come 0ne
pact between companies might be con-
strued as a violation of the laws OF some
states.
"a few weeks ago one of the foreign
managers OF the Equitable Informed our
agency department that an agreement as
to the employment OF agents entered into
several years ago was terminated as far
as his territory was concerned.
"On receipt Of this last notice We
thought the time had arrived to terminatp
the remainder of the agreement and
start the new year without a compact OF
any kind in forcq
There is no hostility Oh our part to
ward the Equitable They are honorable
competitors.
I'VE shall do as we please about our
please about their business"
In spite OF Mr.. McCal's peaceful atti.
tude there is a belief among insurance
men that war may be precipitated be-
tween the companies at any time. AS
they control In the aggregate hundreds
OF millions OF capital, the contest will be
titanic should IL once begin.
