INSURANCE RATES ADVANCE
Twenty-Five Per Cent Increase Con-
tempIated East of Rockies ns
Result of Big Fires.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1S--The Journal Of Com
merce tomorrow will say that at largely
attended meeting of FIRE insurance COM
panies held Tuesday afternoon a resolution
was adopted which provides for an advance
Of rates throughout the United States, east
Of the Rocky mountains, with the exception
of New York city and its immediate vi
cinity.
The resolution, as given by the Journal
of Commerce, gives as the reason for this
advance that losses have been very great
and during 1901 a remarkably large number
of fire insurance companies were forced to
liquidate. The Paterson and Waterbury
conhagrations, coming on the heels of a bad
year, necessitated prompt action.
1t was agreed that throughout the country
rates shall be advanced 25 per cent on
mercantile stocks, in ali buildings, except
such as are occupied as dwellings above
the grade floor and on frame store build
ings, also on -Hli manufacturing rfsks and
other special hazards which have not been
rated under revised and reported schedules
within one year.

hue, jr., and James Goff, according to the

Local Elections.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. is. 80 Elections
were held throughout Pennsylvania today
for municipal and borough officers. There
was no general vote for either county or
state officers. In some sections Of the
state the recent heavy snowstorm had made
the roads almost impossible and a light
vote was the result, but in most sections
heavy vote was polled, especially in the
larger cities. Good order prevailed in the
various contests, general politics not being
an element in the fights.
Thus, iE Philadelphia the candidates sup
ported by the city leaders swept every
thing, electing all the candidates for the
more important offices and nearly all the
ward Offices This also included big ma
jority for the 81, 900 600 Improvement loan,
On the other hand, Pittsburg was car
ried by those opposing the state and city
administrations, the independent repub-
licans having formed coalitions with the
democrats under the head OF the citizens
party.
In the other cities state and local is
sues were fought out. Scranton elected p.
W. Costello, democrat, for mayor. Wilkes
barre elected a republican mayor, Charles
H. Price. Reading gave $50 majority for
Edward Yeager, democrat, for mayor.
At Harrisburg Vance G. Mccormick, the
democratic candidate for mayor, is elected
by 1000 majority. Mccormick is but 29
years of age and was captain Of Yale's foot
