SOLICITORS BANISHED.
Regulation Forgidding "Loggers"
From Selling OYSTERS on the Wharf

All soliciting of trade at the oyster
wharf. logging as 1t Is called in the
wharf vernacular is to be stopped, and
the police officers have been instructed TO
warn all the hangers on about the wharf
of the new regulation and then to arrest
all who will not obey. This is a hard blow
to the "leggers," and yesterday evening
there was a suggestion discussed to the
effect that there is no law that would not
allow them 10 earn living in their own
way but the new regulation is Endorsed by
the larger majority of those who do bust
ness about the oyster wharf.
The new regulation grew out OF the fact
that the 'leggers'' were regarded as not
only nuisance but in many instances it
was alleged were selling an Inferior grade
OF oysters at exorbtant price. and at
the same time collecting of masters of YES
sells a commission on every bushel or
oysters they sold. Under the new regula-
ton one can offer oysters for sale ex-
cept the owner of the oysters, and there
will be no soliciting of trade from SUCKERS

LIFE INSURANCE RATES.
Adverse Report Probable on Bill Be-
fore Congress.

While the Commissioners have not yet
prepared their report upon House bill 1856,
which relates to rates of life insurance in
the District of Columbia 1t is almost GER
tain that they will state their belief that the
enactment of the measure Is not advisa BILE.
The bill was introduced on January 80 by
Representative Smith Of Pennsylvania (by
request), and subsequently referred to the
Commissioners by the House District COM
mittee. In brief, 1t provides that it shall
not be lawful for any life insurance COM
pany or association operating or existing
in the District of Columbia, under what
ever system operating, to increase the rate
of insurance of any policyholder or mem
Der. or In any way alter or change the
terms or agreements of the policy as orig
inally granted. without the assent of said
polfcyholder or member.
The bill was referred to Thomas E.
Drake, superintendent of insurance. and
the Commissioners have indicated their APP
prevail Of his report. which reads as fol-
lows:
THE subject matter of the proposed bill
apears to consist principally of construction
of the law of contracts. If a policy or con-
tract of life insurance specifies definite
amount to be paid as premium. at definite
periods, or a definite aggregate amount to
ne paid for the insurance, no company can
legally increase the rate of insurance on
said policy without the consent of the hold
err thereof 1t would be equally improper
to alter or change the terms or agree
ments of a definite written contract.
THE bill was evidently intended to reach
fraternal beneficial associations and assess
ment companies, because they are the only
insurance companies or associations that
increase the rate Of insurance on outstand-
ing policies. They are organized to fur
nsh insurance on the mutual plan at cost,
and the right to adjust or increase the
rates is imperative. the cost of such In
surance varies with the losses and ex-
penses.
II am, therefore, of the opinion that the
enactment of the bill would be Ul-adVised
because the objects intended to be ac-
complished are not clearly defined and its
terms are SO broad to restrict the pow
ers and privileges of existing fraternai ben
ef1cia associations and assessment COM
