70 WITHDRAW MEDICINES
DIR. RAYMOND STILL CUTTING on
EXPENSES.
Would Make Country Physicians Pay
for Their own Drugs-Members OBJ
ject to the Idea.

Most of the time of the Board Of
| Health yesterday afternoon was taken
up in discussion of the question of cut
| ting off the supply of drugs to country
physicians In the past these drafts
have been very large and a source of
| considerable expense. DR.. Raymond,
| who has for sometime urged economy
in all branches of the bureau brought
up the subject and strongly presented
the Importance of cutting off the al
| lowanCe altogether leaving the physi-
clans to draw their drugs from the
plantations or pay for them them
selves.
There was objection to the proposal
on several grounds. one was that
country physicians do not as a rule
earn very large sums of money and
having to pay for their drugs would
work hardship Another was that in
the promsCuous selection of drugs by
| the physicians there might be a dan
ger of getting bad goods A third sug-
gestiOn was that if country drugs were
cut off the local dispenSary should
also be cut off as the system was the
same in general. After a lengthy dis
cussion the matter went over.
Attorney Dole and Prof.
| Shorey were appointed a committee to
draft a new pure food law there be-
ing many imperfections in the old one.
An object in view, also, is an amend
ment which will make it easily possible
| to convict drivers of milk wagons for
delivering impure or watered milk.
Inspector Shorey submitted his re-
port for the month of January giving
the number of specimens examined and
the details in each case. A number of
impure articles were discovered, most
of them coming, however, from China
| town. Ahuimanu cream, which has
been growing in popular favor locally,
was found to be preserved with for
malin.
Reports We're also submitted by the
various inspectors, the city physician,
sanitary engineer and other officials.
McBryde Sugar Company offered to
pay most of the expenses of the hos
pital at Koloa on condition that its
patients be treated there.

LOOKS LIKE AN
INSURANCE TRUST.
Eagle Fire Insurance Company
About - Years Old Absorbed
by Syndicate.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
New York. April 21.-The croatest OF all
great trustS-an insurance combinatiOn-is
now on the tapis.
For months the rumor has bep1l persistent
that the many differences e1. Sting as to
rates and terms and commissions are to be
settled by a practical amalgamatiop OF In
terests. These rumors, though persistently
denied. have been revived from week to
recent repoIt of the purchase by a syndi-
cate OF the Eagle Fire Insurance Company.
whose charter dates back ninety-five years.
The Eagle. with a capital of only S'G'. mo.
has always been one of the most conseTva-
tive insurance companies in the country.
The control was acquired SO quietly that the
old. lonG-serving officers simply awoke to
find themselves voted out of office and a
new. energetic and enterprising policy sub
stituted for the old one.
Insurance men are waiting for the next
move. which experts believe will be the
control of another of the small companies,
then of another and of another and sc on
until the big companies will find themselves
confronted by Il Well-organiZed association
of smaller ones willing and ready tc de-
clare war upon the former formidable ri
walls.
Vice President Henry Evans of the Conti-
mental Insurance Company. who is one CT the
purchasers Of the Eagle company. declared
Saturday that "the tendency Of the times
in all businesses is toward Capitalization
but I cannot see how that tendency has yet
become active in the insurance line"
An event that confirmed the belief in the
rumor of an insurance trust was the recent
merging of the Lancashire and Hartford
companies, which was the largest deal Of
the kind ever made in this country.
