THE INSURANCE COMMITTEE
Agree Upon a Few Points to Make
Part Of New Laws.

st. Paul, Aug. 23.-Littlc progress
was made today by the special COM
mittcc on uniform insurance laws. it
was decided that any agent Of Il COM
rany or its employees, receiving 800 Il
month or more be prohibited from 70
cciNinS special cmolumCntS. This pp-
Sition of the proposed bill was con-
Strucd as not preventing tn" company
from making its regular renewal com
missions with its managing OF soliciting
agent
There was Il difference of opinion
among the commissioners as to the
right Of Il legislature to fix what H.
known us Il standard policy. r. w.
Libby, commissioner Of Maine, took the
position that it WAS only constitutional
ior the Legislature to prescribe what
is II standard policy, and that it wa
not the duty of the commissioner t.
Scttl" that matter. 1t was decided that
it lay within The province Of the com
nriSSiohcrS to pass on policies submit
TED to them by The companies and do
eide whether they conformrd with tn"
lIWS ANA that ii was not desirable thHt
tn" Legislatures prescribe in 81 many
words the type of u standard policy.

Marking Historic Spots.

on July IS, 1856. Abraham Lincoln

celebration Of the lapse Of fifty years
since that visit is to he marked Ivy Il

that the people who knew Mr.. Lincoln

liable against the General Asphalt
Co. Evidence already taken before
referee shows that Barber began to
offer Bermudez asphalt for sale as
soon as President Castro placed a re-

Barber is suing in the New York
Supreme Court for 100000 damages,
claiming that he has been injured to
that extent by charges made in the
last Annual Report of the Company.
The Company's answer just filed is
25,000-word history of the asphalt in
dustry, going back to the grant of Ber-
mudez Lake by Presiden Crespo in
1883. and setting forth in detail the
alleged conspiracy by which it claims
to have been defrauded of its property
by Barber acting in conjunction with
President Castro and A. II. Garner In
addition to this, the President OF the
Company stated in his report that Bar
Der had failed to account for over
half a million dollars involved in the
