REDUCTION IN RATES.
Increase on Fire Insurance Policies
Down to Twenty-Five Per Cent.

The local board of fire underwriters
received word on the morning of Oct.
from the department board of under
writer's that from and after that date
the increase of the rate on mercantile
risks would be reduced from thirty
three and one-third per cent to twenty
five per cent.
1t will be remembered that in March,
1901, pink slip providing for twen-
ty-tive per cent. increase was ordered
placed on all fire insurance policies
written in this city until the fire SER
vice of the city was improved. In
March, 1902, the twenty-five per cent.
increase on dwellings was taken off
and a thirty-three and one-third per
cent. increase on business risks was
declared.
The new order provides expressly
that the reduction shall be applied only
to strictly new business written on and
after Oct. /, and that no rebates shall
be allowed. This has caused a great
deal of objection on the part of policy
holders who took out insurance during
the last few months and who think
they are being Disseminated against
To have an increase of thirty-three and
a half per cent. for one policy holder
and one of twenty-five per cent. for
another for the same year, is unjust,
they maintain.
The full text of the official notiflca-
tion is as follows:
From and after October l, 1902, the per-
centage advance of 33 1-3 per cent. ap
plying to the city of Scranton and bo-
rough of Dunmore, is removed and in lieu
thereof a percentage advance of % per
cent. is promulgated, applying in the
same manner in every respect as the ad-
vance just removed applied II is spe-
cially provided however. in making this
concession that no rebate will be per-
mitted on policies issued, whether re-
newals or new business, as taking effect
on Il day prior to October J. Policies is
sued by agents on strictly October bust
ness, may be reissued at the new per-
centage advance by returning the old
policy with daily report of policy is
sued at the current rates
The insurance companies say they are
cutting down the rates as rapidly as
warrant and point to the
fact that thirty-five companies have re-
tired from business during the last two
years, as evidence that the rates have
been too low for profit.
