FOR a SURETY COMBINE.
Prominent Companies Likely to Con.
sOIIdute Their Interests.

BALTIMORE, May 25.-The success of
the surety business in this country during
the last ten years has caused attention to
be directed toward the possibility Of
forming a big combination Of the larger
companies. and 4 movement is on foot. il
is understood, TO unite them. The putting
under ohE head OF all the corporations
doing a bonding business would obliterate
competition, which has caused some les
SEEMING in the percentage Of profits within
the last few years. and make possible the
reduction Of expenses. which are now
much greater than formerly. though the
companies are, it is said, more prosperous
now than ever before
-Four companies are said 20 transact the
great bulk Of the bonding business Of the
United States, and two Of them are in
this city-the Fidelity and Deposit Com
pany Of Maryland and the United States
Fidelity and Guaranty Company. The
other two are the American Surety Com
pany-of New York, and the Pacific Surety
Company. Of San Francisco The Ameri-
can Bonding and Trust Company, Of this
city. is a comparative newcomer in the
field. but its business HIS developed rap
idly. and there is also { bonding company
in Pittsburg. besides some smaller con
Germs elsewhere
The Fidelity and Deposit Company has
recently opened an Office in London for
the transaction Of business in Great Brit
tain. being the first American companI Of
its kind TO enter that field.
Enquiries have been made regarding the
securing Of options on the stock Of at
least one Of the Baltimore companies, and
it is said that large New York financial
interests are behind the plan. The name
Of J. PieTpont Morgan has been mentioned
in connection with it. but whether he is
actually interested in the movement is
not definitely known here. Parties in in
terest are inclined 10 think that the con-
summation Of the proposed consolidation
scheme is distant, though they do not
deny its feasibility, nor do they question
that it could be made to increase the net
profits and aid in preventing the growth
OF competition.
A gentleman familiar with conditions in
the bonding business yesterday expressed
the oTiuion that the success attending
one Of the newer companies had alarmed
some Of the older corporations which
feared that further competition might de-
Nel0p, and accordingly parties intereste ed
were inclined TO look with more OF less
favor upon the plans Cor a combine.

Rein w Darby, for many years a resi-
dent of Georgetown, and now having a
legal residence in Alexandria county, has
been elected county supervisor of the Ar
lingJOn district. He received over 400
votes. mis- rival polling but =. In the
principal campaign document issued. the
successful candidates views were eN-
pressed as follows:
He believes the county ought to get
value received for its money expended for
labor and material He believes a com
pTehensive system should De adopted for
building roads and that the principal
thoroughfares should he properly graded
and macadamized- He believes that the
Iaborer Is worthy of his hire, and that an
honest days work is entitled to a fair
days pay. He believes that an honest,
intelligent, and industrious workman can
perform as much work in eight hours as
the shiftless man can in twelve. He is
not in favor Of bonding the county, be
cause the people have voted on that ques-
ton and settled it. In short, he believes
that the people of Alexandria county
