His Successor Is It. Gen. Chas. Com
YIN Engerton, an Experienced
Indian Campaigner.

simla, India, June 22.-Lieutenant
General Charles Comyn Engerton, who
has been in command of the Punjab
frontier force since 1899, has been ap-
pointed to the command Of the Soma1i-
land expeditionary force which Is operat-
ing against the Mad Mullah, superseding
Brigadier General w. H. Manning.
s General Manning. who took command
last November after a reverse suffered
by Colonel Swayne, has not proved suo-
cessful. Columns detached from the force
have been badly mauled by the Mullah's
followers, the most serious British defeat
being the ambushing of Colonel Plunket' 8
flying detachment Of 20S men, with two
Maxims. on April II, when Colonel
Plunket. all his officers and practically
the entire force were wiped out.
The last advices received in London,
June IA, were to the effect that General
Manning himself was surrounded and I'M
.umn was in serious position at Callady
and on half rations.
One of the cause Of the failure Of the
expedition has been the cowardice Of the
native Somali regiment. Only a few days
ago news came that the native camel
corps had mutinied. ..
& The operations against the Mad Mullah,
who first raised the tribes against the
British In 1899, have already cost $4,000
900. A desire has been manifested to
abandon the campaign, but in view OF
the predicament Of General Manning 8
forces it has been found necessary to Or
der British troops from India. When they
arrive the British expedition in Somali-
land will consist Of 800 British, 1900 In
dian troops and 1000 natives. ..

STATE CAPITOL.
STATE GETS HALF
Insurance Tax of 1902 Not Covered
by the Law Passed in
February.
Tax on Premiums Collected After
February 20 Goes to Fire
j Departments.

Insurance Commissioner Dearth has
received an opinion from the attorney
general, which makes difference Of $4O,-
600 or $4,000 to the state treasury and
to the fire departments Of Minnesota
cities. An act passed last, winter gave
the entire 2 per cent tax on fire insur-
ance premiums to the fire department re-
departments. The old law gave 1 per
cent to the state and per cent to the
departments. The law went into effect
Feb. 20, and the reports for 1902 taxes
are just being made up by the commits
sion. Mr.. Dearth raised the question
whether the new law would apply to the
tax money, about to be paid over. The
attorney general says that the law is
prospective, and does not apply to- pre-
fore, gets half Of the 1902 tax, which will
amount to over $4,000 in the cities, which
will lose that much.
Under this ruling the state will also
collect one-half of the tax on premiums
paid before Feb. 20 Of this year, and a
separate report will have to be made for
the time between Jan. and Feb. 20.
The annual report of the insurance
commissioner for 1902, covering fire insur-
ance, has just been issued. Most of its
contents have already been made public.
The report includes a list Of unauthor-
lied or wildcat companies existing in
the country, and the public Is warned
against them as Irresponsible Mr.. Dearth
criticises the high expense rates in fire
insurance companies, which Is II per cent
Of total premium receipts. The loss rates
was so per cent in 1902, leaving only per
cent profit. He also urges that stop be
put to overinsurance, which creates
moral hazard" and keeps premium
rates up.
