Attorney Tells What Would Happen
From Ignoring Chimney Law.

From Ignoring Chimney Law.
T. c. Coogan, attorney for the Fire
Underwriters of the Pacific, has an
swered query by z. II. Porter, chief
chimney inspector, concerning the in
surance on houses that have not had a
chimney inspection and have not re-
ceived certificate. as follows:
You ask what effect failure to re-
pair and inspect chimneys in build
ings, as required by ordinance No "a
would be likely TO have upon policies
OF insurance issued before the recent
disaster covering such buildings The
ordinance states in substance that no
one shall use a chimney fiue in San
Francisco until permission TO do so is
granted by the Board of Public Works
after IT has been inspected. BY its
erected since April ls, 1905
The form of policy in general use in
San Francisco provides that If the
hazard be increased by any means
within the control or knowledge of the
insured the policy shall be void This
clause has been judicially construed to
mean that such a change in the cir
culnstances, interest or surroundings
as increases the hazard of loss or dam
age by fire vitiates the policy.
Each case would be determined upon
the facts. II ii should appear that the
failure 70 comply with the ordinance
In question in the case referred to ma
