they have had under consider
alton H. B, No. I40. a bill for an

And wish to state that demand
having been made by the house that

IIth of February your committee
wish to state that the bill was
referred on the Goth of January to
this committee and was brought
before the committee for the first
time on February 4th and upon
request of the representatives of
several of the mutual insurance COM
panies of the state action was deferred

interests might be considered. Their
action not being sustained by the

without recommendation.
Respectfully submitted,
HI. A. Hildebrandt,
Chairman.
1t has been quite openly stated in
this city during the session hat the
house committee on insurance would
delay as much as possible all efforts
towards insurance legislation, and
this feeling, which has gained a great
deal of credence, may have had some
bearing upon the following pro-
ceedings, which are cut bodily out of
the house journal of that day:
"Mr. Goddard moved
"That the rules be suspended and
hat house bill No. 40 be engrossed,
placed upon the calendar for third
reading and final passage.
"Mr. Longstaff moved
GAS an amendment that house bill
No. 40 be recommitted to the COM
mittee on insurance for their further
consideration.
"Mr. Longsaff moved

Goddard's motion.

Do not think, dear reader, that
these few lines cover all the proceed
ings. The house journal treats the
matter very tamely indeed. There
were bursts of oratory, heated de-
