BURGLAR POLICIES LOSS.
One Company Drops This Sort of In
surance, but in Metropolis Only.


NEW YORK, July 16.-Because. of
the rapidly increasing number Of burg
lars, sneak thieves and pickpockets Of
a new class in New York, the United
States Fidelity and Guaranty company
has abandoned it's burglar insurance
business and will notify it's patrons
that upon the expiration of the present
policies they will not be renewed, and
that no more insurance of this sort
will be written in this city.
All told, the premiums paid on burg
lar insurance business in New York
now amount to considerably more than
100000 annually, and it is asserted by
officers of various companies that it is
a losing undertaking. 1t is expected
that several other concerns may soon
follow the course of the Fidelity and
discontinue the burglary branch of in
surance altogether.
In making this announcement, officers
of the Fidelity company said they
would abandon burglary insurance
only in New York city In other cities
they will continue writing policies the
same as before. 1t is only in New
York that the business Of housebreak-
ing and stealing has been developed to
a point where losses are almost sure
to Overbalance the premiums

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucuous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inf1amed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition.
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed con-
dition of the mucuous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

PARTY WHIP IS
BEING CRACKED
Fruitless Effort to Force Republicans
Into Line for Statehood
Bill.

Washington, Jan. S.-Republicans in the
house who oppose the proposed joint
statehood bill have developed such
strength that the date of the favorable
report Of the committee on territories on
the measure is uncertain and many mem
bers do not expect to have the bill
brought before the house this week, as
was originally planned.
The insurgent Republicans allege they
have Seventy-fiVe Republican votes
against the proposed rule preventing the
amendment of the joint statehood mea-
sure. The Democrats would vote SOGdly
against such d rule.
1t has been reported that the rules COM
mittee viii not attempt to prevent the
amendment of the statehood bill. How
ever, the friends OF joint statehood do not
admit that seventy-five Republicans will
join in the attempt to amend the bill and
insist that the committee on rules viii
have no hesitation in submitting a rule
preventing amendments.
