home and that he had been seen in the vi

LOCAL BUSINESS ONLY.
Potomac Insurance Company to Leave
the Outside Field.

AS predicted in The Evening Star, the Po-
tomac Insurance Company, which was a
heavy loser by the Baltimore fire. has de-
cided to rehabilitate itself by retiring from
the outside field and combining its risks in
the future to purely local properties. This
conclusion was reached at a meeting of the
directors held last night
1t was realized from the outset that the
attempt to put the company on its feet by
making an assessment of $40 so per share
would not be successful, and as a matter of
fact there was very little hope that it would
be when the call was sent out
The company will at once reinsure all of
it's foreign business, and from the money
made on this proposition will be able to re-
place the loss to the capital stock and have
reserve fund of about $4,000 with which
to continue business.
This is the arrangement that will be in
effect for the present and later on the pro-
posed combination of interests forming a
large company with half million dollars
capital and half million surplus will prob
ably result with the Potomac as a basis
and taking in one or more of the smaller
local companies.
