NECESSARY BY FRISCO FIRE

i CHICAGO, May 9--The Tribune to-
day says:
Fire insurance rates in Chicago OF
all less desirable risks will be advanced
% per cent or more TO reimburse com.
panies that have suffered loss in the
San Francisco fire.
This action practically was decided
yesterday at meeting Of twenty
western managers in the rooms OF the
Western Union in the American Trust
4 Savings Bank building. At the same
time there will be a larger reduction
in brokers commissions.
The rase in rates will not BE- fiat"
advance. 1t will affect what are known
as the improbable hazards and ii will
be confined chiefly 10 the congested dis
trict bounded by Harrison street, the
river and the lake.
The stock yards also will be consid.
cred as a congested territory in the ad-
vance of rates and likewise certain
manufacturing sections.
Fireproof buildings are exempt from
the increase 1t is probable that the
advance in rates will be made through
out the entire district controlled BY the
Western Union extending from Western
Pennsylvania to the Rocky Mountains
An insurance manager speaking of
rates outside Of Chicago, said that thev
should be a fiat advance Of 80 per cent
in Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri,
Kentucky, and Tennessee. 1t was noted
that he represents what is known as
a non-union company.
Eighty companies in Chicago and the
West belong to the Western Union
Fifty compane, are in the Independent |
class.
The meeting was called for the pur.
pose Of hearing a report from com
mittee Of five insurance managers who
went to New York to attend a general
conference Of insurance men.
This committee reported that there
was a general sentiment for advancing
insurance rates on improbable business
and in congested districts and for cut.
ting down the amount of commissions
paid to brokers.
The meeting was secret and after it
was over those of the insurance men
who were willing to admit that it mad
been held said that nothing definite had
been done in the matter Of advancing
'ates although all agreed that there
should be an advance on Improbable
'isks and that the "Congestion haz-
lrd" should be recognized in the future.

select Mr. Kozminski selected the
Jewish Agriculturists Aid Society Of
America as residuary legatee, and
handed over to the society the sum of
81 100000, and five city lots in the city
of Chicago, valued at 100000. This is
only part of the legacy. The balance
which will in all probability be from five
to six thousand dollars, will be received
by the society from time to time as it is
realized out Of the estate of the legator.
Another gratifying feature in the
movement is that the desire to go to the
farm is taking a strong hold of, and
spreading among our people. Many
among the now arriving Jewish immi
grants from Russia and Roumania are
coming here with the fixed purpose of
going to the farm. Others, who have
been in this country for some years and
have tried their hands at various activi-
ties with Indifferent success, are open
ing their eyes to the opportunities which
farming holds for them. Applications
at the office of the Jewish Agriculturists'
Aid Society are continually increasing.
These applications come from people
well fitted for the work they desire to
undertake, and there can be no doubt as
to their success as farmers. Let the good
work go on, and the time will soon be
when the Jew will be telling factor in
the greatest Of this country's industry
in the industry of agriculture.

The Jewish outlook., 1906-04-27
The Jews Of San Francisco

The Jewish community of San Fran
cisco is large and influential and its his
tory is intimately connected with the
rapid development of the beautiful city
which looks out on the Golden Gate.
According to the statistics of 1901, the
Jewish population is 1880, the total
number of Jews in California being 2S,-
600.
Jews have participated in the earliest
history Of San Francisco. The name San
Francisco was given to the settlement
by Washington Bartlett, the son of a
Jewess born at Charleston, South Caro-
lima. 1t is probable that Jews were
among the first settlers of the peninsula
Of California in 1886. Raphael and
Benjamin Fisher were merchants there
as early as 1847. The sensational devel-
opments in the gold regions brought
quite a number of our co-religionists to
San Francisco in 1949 Many Of them
came on the first Pacific mail steamer in
February Of that year. The records Of
the society of California pioneers, how
ever, mention but few Jewish pioneers
besides Louis Gloss. Divine services
were conducted almost as soon as there
was a minyan Of observing Jews. They
were first held in 1849 on the Day Of
Atonement in room of store where
gold dust was weighed. The traditions
of the Sheriff. Israel congregation, Of
which Jacob Nieto is now rabbi, date
The Jewish outlook., 1906-04-27
The Jewish Agricultur-

IMAM one way. Inc jewish ASrlculCtlF-
lists Aid Society of America, true to its
untiring efforts of enabling Jews every
where to till the soil, has enlarged the
sphere Of it's activity, extending it to the
state Of Washington. The society has
now it's proteges in the following states:
Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Oklahoma,
Florida North and South Dakota and
Washington Seven families, consisting
of fifteen adults and twenty children
and youths under the age OF sixteen,
have been assisted this spring to take up
farming in the last named state. Three
Of these families have purchased farms,
while four have each entered upon Il
homestead Of 16O acres on free govern
ment lands. This move Of the society is
of considerable Importance and will be
watched with special interest by all who
are engaged in the work Of promoting
agriculture among Jewish poor. The
cost of removing large families from
eastern cities to the state of Washington
is very considerable. 1t is believed, how
ever that, inasmuch as the soil in that
state is exceedingly fertile and valu-
able, and climatic canditions being also
more favorable there than in the middle
Northwest, the ultimate cost Of making
the settler in the state Of Washington Il
successful farmer will favorably com
pare with what has been the cost OF
settling Jewish family in states nearer
the places of removal.
Besides the families sent to the state
of Washington, the Jewish Agricultur-
lists Aid Society has assisted sixteen
more families to take up farming in the
states of Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin,
and North Dakota. Quite number OF
applications are at present being consld-
cred by the society and indications point
to the fact that the activity Of the So
ciety will at the end Of the present year
show considerable increase over its
achievements Of last year.
Nor is the interest in the work OF
bringing the Jew to agriculture tagging
behind The publication and distribu-
ton Of the society's report for the year
1905 has had it's good effect. Many
earnest men and women have become III
terested in the work, and the societys
membership has increased from 225 to
the end Of 1905, to 41O on the 18th day
Of April, 1906. Other indications point
to the appreciation by the public at large
Of this society's work. At the last
monthly meeting held by the directors Of
the society the announcement was made
of large sum bequeathed to the organi-
zation. The bequest comes from. the
estate Of Isadore Aaronson who died in

when services were held in tent. Two
religious organizations, outgrowths OF
these two services, were established the
following year. The community divided
along geographical lines, one represent
ing the German-Bavarian and American
elements, the other representing the Pol
ish and English elements. These relig
ious organizations are still in existence;
the congregation Emanuel, of which Dr.
Jacob Voorsanger is rabbi, and the Sher-
ith Israel congregation, Of which DR..
Nieto is the rabbi. The first two benev-
olent societies were organized in 1850,
and the congregations dedicated their
own houses Of worship in 1854.
Jews attained distinction in San Fran
cisco quite early in it's history. Abra-
ham G. Labatt was elected an alderman
in 1851. The treasurer of San Fran
cisco in the same year was Joseph Shan
non, an English Jew. Elkan Heyden-
feldt and Isaac Cardozo were sent to the
state Legislature in 1852. The Selig-
mans, the IIazards, the Wormsers and the
Glaziers were among the first to become
prominent in a financial way. Solomon
Heydenfeldt, the eminent jurist, was
elevated to the bench, and Henry A.
Lyons was also one of California s early
judges. So important were the Jews
commercially in the early days that it
became necessary to change the date of
''collection day. whenever it fell on
Day of AtOnement
Jews are among the leading bankers,
merchants and manufacturers of San
Francisco. The Nevada National, An
glO-CalifOrnian, and London, Paris and
American banks are under jew
ish control "A number of large
department stores are owned by Jews.
A considerable percentage of the stu
dent bodies of the two universities has
been for some time past, Jewish, and as
a result they are becoming prominent
in the legal, journalistic, engineering
and other professions.
The Young Hebrew Men s Literary
and Benevolent Association was organ
lied in 1855 by DR.. JULIUS Eckmann,
first rabbi of congregation Emanuel Dr.
Eckman also founded in 1855 the
first Jewish journal to appea on the
Pacific coast. ''The Gleaner.''
There are nav in San Fran
cisco two Jewish weeklies, the jew
ish ''Times and Observer" and "Eman-
uel.' The first Jewish lodge Of 1. o. O.
B. was instituted in 1855 In 1857 the
Cheva Bikur Cholim was established
to assist the needy and the dependent.
This society is still in existance and is
doing excellent work. In 1874 the Pa
