STATE LOSES COMMISSIONS
sY HERvEY w. LAIRD.

Montgomery, May S1.-(Speclal.)- committee of local fire insurance agents called upon State Insurance Commission CT E. R. McDavid this morning to discuss with him the supposition that the state is being deprived of insurance tax on business placed on cotton in Alabama by marine companies. The move was re- suit of the big loss Sunday morning at the fire of the Atlantic Compress com pany, with the attendant fact that none of the Alabama agents had any of the business.
 The law of Alabama requires that when business in the state is placed with con- panles not licensed in the state. tax of 1 per cent must be paid to the insur- ance department This must be looked after by the assured. In case of a loss under suct circumstances. the insurance companies carrying the risk must pay to the stflte one-half of per cent of the money paid on such losses,
 On this basis 1t Is contended that the state Is out something like 5000. Esti- mates place the cotton loss in the neigh borhood of s3Oo.OO0, which would give the state on this item sl5OO. If the business was placed at one-half of 1 per cent 1t will be seen that there is another item of tax of per cent on $500 coming from somewhere.
 MT. McDavid may be depended upon to see that the state is protected and if 1t is falling short of It's rights in the mat ter It Is quite likely that somebody, in- terest or concern is going to have to | "cOme acrOSS'' with what is due.
 Have Lost the Commissions. The milk in the cocoanut so far as the aeentc are concerned Is the loss of com rds-ions on the business. They are en- l titled 10 b per cent on all business going through their offices. That they have not y.itten any of this cotton means that i they are shy several dollars each that | they think they should have had. The ramiflcations of the business are quite extensive and a number of leads may have to be followed before the end 1 of Mir. McDavid's search is reached. The marine companies take the cotton and then reinsure the cotton on the shore, or the "shore end' as it Is termed, in regular l fire companies This business Is placed by brokers in most cases it is said, and D 0 1 local agents cut out even on the light haul. The matter has been taken up at every meeting of the fire insurance men of the state held In several years and plans suggested to stop it.
