INSURANCE MEN OBJECT.
Provisions of Code Affecting Their
Buxiness to Be Amended.


The effect of the provisions Of the new
code relative to the tax on all descriptions
of insurance business, especially as to the
additional cost imposed on solicitors, is not
looked upon with favor by some of the
agency companies doing business in this
District The Interpretation Of the new law
as found in the opinion of the city solicitor,
Mr.. -Duvan. which has just been made
public, is believed by the insurance men to
correctly define the provisions of the new
law. A movement has been started which
is favored by some of the large agency
companies, and especially those doing life
insurance business, to have that part of the
code amended.
In the first place, they. favor restoring
the tax upon gross premium receipts i'm
posed on all companies, except mutual con-
Germs, to 1 per cent as under the old law,
instead of ~ per cent, as provided by the
code. Instead of requiring each agent or
broker Of every description Of Insurance
company to pay $50 per year, as the code
does, they favor a yearly tax of $1o tor
each company represented.
The men .fayofing an amendm ent TO the
code want to make a clear-cut distinction
between an agent and a broker, which the
code as interpreted does not do. They be-
lieye in grouping brokers and solicitors in
one class and charging each such broker or
solicitor general license of 81 per year,
and under such license each one will be en-
abled to do business with any or all com
panies.
The code, however, requires that solicitors
must pay yearly tax of s.. But such
solicitors can only take out a license for
one company, and il he. wants to do busi-
ness with more than one he becomes a
broker, and must pay $50. ser
The effect of the new law 1t Is believed,
will reduce the number of solicitors, and to
this change objection Is made by some
Of the agency fire and life insurance COM
pauies.

ARTIFICIAL FLOWERS.
Report From Dresden ON German In
dustry.


United States Consul General Cole at
Dresden, IN a report to the State Depart
ment, says that artificial flowers, leaves
and plants form the most important article
of export to the United States from his
consular district. The principal point of
manufacture is at Sebnitz, thirty-five miles
northeast from Dresden, and in close prox-
unity to the Bohemian border. The de-
clared exports to the United States testify
to the remarkable growth and development
of this industry
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 1901.
there was a slight decrease from the figures
of 1890. but the first five months Of the
current fiscal year promise an increase over
the largest annual shipment. The artificial
flower industry originated In 1910, and is
makers Of flowers from Bohemia. Since
that time the industry has made progress
and business connections were effected with
foreign countries Sebnftz. says the con-
sui general. is now not only the center of
the artificial flower trade in Germany. but
favorabiy completes with its French rivals.
Mr.. Cole says that the Franco-Germ
war, which was so disastrous to most
to the flower industry. He accounts for
this by saying that during the Siege Paris
could not fill orders and Sebnitz was called
upon to supply the demand. which gave a
remarkable impetus to it's trade
The most important feature OF the
flower trade, says Mr.. Cole, sis the house
industry. and It can safely be stated thai
two-thfrds of the work is done outside of
the factories by families who are sunnIfei
with the cut material ready for sten1nling.

Proposed Consolidation of supply De-
spaftaaenfs OF the Army.
Secretary Roots plan for the consoiida-
tion of the three supply departments of
the army into one general department does
not meet with much favor on the part of
the officers OF the aHartermaster's SUBJ
sistence and pay departments Quarter
master General Ludington, Commissary
General Weston and Acting Paymaster
General Sniffen have made reports to the
Secretary giving their views on the sub
ject. None of the officers named indorses
the plan in Its entirety. eNe- objection is Of
fered by any of the bureau chiefs to a plan
which shall facilitate sdepartmental work,
hut none of them is entirely in favor Of
the scheme proposed by the Secretary Of
War.
One Of the main objections to the pro-
posed plan is that It practically prevents
any OF the officers of the three supply de-
lpartmepts from reaching a higher grade
than that Of colonel, by opening the ap-
pointment OF chiefs of divisions with the
rank of brigadier general TO the army q
large. What Is regarded as a .serious de-
feet In the plan is that, It's execution, would
necessitate the dropping of at least four
teen majors out OF the service altogether.
