PINE BLUFFS FIRE LOSSES.

The report. of Fire Chief Senyard
for the past fiscal year for the city OF
Pine 1SiIG shows that this city has
IN efficient fire department. and Ger.
tainly escaped with light losses for
the past year The total fire losses is
328, ,9S4.O9. of which sum $14.S4S.0?
was on buildings and $l4.146 on the
contents OF burned buildings. The
losses on burned buildings We're cov-
s.retl with insurance to the extent OF
S1l 5000, and on contents $4S7l,
making the total amount of insurance
S16, 6,433.09, leaving uninsured losses
amounting to $l2.56l, of which $3,2St
rs ON buildings and $9,275 on con-
tents
Not only were the losses light for
they were also light. and the insur-
sance companies have come OFF easily
the past two years. and they all have
recovered from their former losses on
Pine Bluff business, except one com
pany, which is yet about $4,000 be,
hind.
The average business done by the
companies in Pine Bluff is between
1880 aud $1,000 a year each. and the
aggregate sum is 100000 annually.
If the companies can continue to get
sill SO easily as they have for the
skast two years they can afford to
grant a lower rate of insurance to
Pine Bluff than is granted at present.
OF course it is not reasonable to sup
pose that the future losses will be so
light as for the past year but there is
sso reason why fire losses should not
1or reduced to an annual aggregate
that would mean lower insurance
rates The city council is ready to
increase the efficiency of the fire de-
partn!ent so as to reduce the fire
losses to the minimum as soon rs the
INSURANCE companies make known
what is necessary to be done
The cauncil has also forbid the
erection OF any kind of flues except
&TIck oaes, which was a very proper

thing to do. and now if it will prohibit
the erection Of any more old traps
and tents within the business section,
another long step looking to lower
fire insurance rates will be taken. If
necessar, let the fire district be ex-
tended, so as to exclude many OF the
fire traps now in the heart of the
city.
The outlook for the lowest insurance
rate possible for Pine Bluff appears to
be Frightening.
