ADVANCE
IN RATES.
CERTAIN GLASSES OF lNsUR-
ANCE ADVANCES 25 PER
CENT. IN BRUNSWICK.

The local fire insurance agents
nave received adyices Of a general,
fat advance OF 25 per cent. in in
sarance rates on all mercantile
stocks. mercantile buildings manu-
featuring risks and special hazards
This advance in rates does not ap
ply, however, to dwellings,, furniture
or brick mercantile buildings. The
advance went into effect Friday.
The reason of this advance is that
there have been tremendous fire
losses so far this year, losses fully 100
per cent, in excess over the same pe-
liod last year. 1t is estimated that
since the first Of January the insur-
ane companies have paid out be-
tween thirty and forty millions of dol
lars for fire losses, and this is be-
ginning to tell on them

ROOSEVELT WITHDREW INVITA-
TioN FOR HIM TO DINE
AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
Frye Orders Clerks In the Senate
Not to Call Names of TiIIman
and McLaurin.

Washington, Feb. 2f-President
Roosevelt has withdrawn the invita-
tion extended Senator Tillman Of
South Carolina to attend the dinner
to be given tonight in honor of
Prince Henry of Prussia at the
white house 1t is stated tnat this
action on the part of the president
is made necessary from the occur
ence ON the floor of the senate last
Saturday when the senator from
South Carolina was declared IN con-
tempt of the senate Senator Martin
Of Virginia, a member of the COM
mittee on naval affairs mas accept
ed the invitation in Senator Till
mans place. The invitation was ex-
tended originally to Senator Till
man owing to the fact that he is the
ranking minority member of the ma
val affairs committee.
Tillman Wouldn't Withdraw
There was a sensational sequel to
the decision OF the president to
eliminate Mr.. Tillman from the list
of dinner guests. The president sent
for Senator Cockrell and asked him
as friend and Democratic col
league of Mr.. Tillman to suggest to
the latter the propriety of withdraw
ing his acceptance of the dinner in
vitation. The president explained
his attitude in the matter and said in
view of the contempt proceedings Mr..
Tinman's presence would not only be
an affront to the senate, but a dis
courtesy to Prince Henry. Mr..
Cockrell accepted the commission
and later telephoned the president
that Tillman absolutely refused 20
withdraw the acceptance in response
to the presidents suggestion.
Roosevelt Writes Note.
The president Immediately can
celed the invitation in note he dis.
patched to Mr. Tillman shortly be-
| fore moo today. In this note, which
was very brief and formal, the pres
ident stated that he regretted he was
obliged to withdraw the invitation.
simultaneously Senator Martin of
Virginia was invited to take Mr..
Tillman's place at the dinner as the
next ranking Democratic member Of
the senate naval affairs committee.
Then Cannot Vote.
Senator Frye, president pro TEN. of
the senate. gave instructions to the
clerks of the senate today that the
names of Senators Tillman and Nc
Laurin of South Carolina must not
be called on the roll calls until fur
ther notice. This fixes the status of
the seators, who are practically sus-
pended from all senatorial functions.
McLaurin Wants Investigation.
Mr.. Pritcnard (Rep), of North
Carolina, at the request of Senator
McLaurin, offered a resolution direct
ing the privilege and elections COM
mittee to investigate Senator Till,
mans charges that McLaurin was
Improperly Influenced to vote for
the Spanish peace treaty. The reso-
luton was referred to that commit
tee.
