The New England Insurance Exchange
held it's usual meeting in Boston April 9th.
Business interests in the State of Maine
were solely affected by the deliberations,
and the tendency toward more stringent
policy throughout the country on the part
of the fire insurance companies was strong
ly evidenced.
for manufacturing, mercantile or storage
purposes will be insured except at annual
rates, aud if written for lower period than
one year to be written pro rata, instead of
as before at reduced figure in considera-
tiOn of the extended term of insurance.
AS might be expected, the larger cities,
where this legislation was proposed, strong
ly objected. The Portland and Bangor boards
OF fire underwriters adopted resolutions
asking that those cities should be exempted
from its provisions on account of their SUI
perior fire protection, and the interests of
these two cities were presented formally at
the meeting.
Notwithstanding their representations,
the recommendation was made general
throughout the State. and no exception was
made in their favor, the exchange recording
its opinion that the chairmen of the local
boards of underwriters in the various Maine
cities and towns Immediately adopt the
recommendation.
The percent reduction allowed in 1899 on
the rates on unprotected property in Maine
was also rescinded
