in the record which science has long
endeavored to make perfect.

contributed by the late William c.
whitney. At his death these special
explorations had to cease, the hunt
for, fossil horses is now carried on in
conjunction with that for other fossil
animals. until some equally public
spirlted horse lover comes forward to
continue it distinctively.
The locality around Fort Bridger,
Wyoming. was carefully searched for
fossils. but particularly for the "moun-
tain horse" fragments of which had
been found and named by Professor

COMPOSED OF DIGNITAKirs

Chicago. H., Feb. 1.-Representa-
tives of nearly every state and terri
tory in the United States, including
several governors, attorney generals,
and state insurance commissioners,
met here this morning to hold a con-
ference, the primary object of which
is to consider and discuss the propo-
sition of establishing some kind of
uniformity in the insurance laws Of
the various states of the union. The
conference was called to order by
Thomas Drake, the superintendent of
insurance of the District Of Colum-
bia, who, with the approval Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, originated the Iuea UI
holding such a conference, and sent
out invitations to the various states
and territories. Governor Deneen
and Mayor Dunno welcomed the mem
bers of the conference and Mr.. Drake
delivered an address in which he
gave an outline of the program which
he submitted to the consideration OF
the conference.
This conference is the result of a
number of preliminary conferences
which were held in New York, Wash
ington and other cities, and in which
the plan of devising some means of
making the insurance laws in the var
ious states uniform in their most es-
sential features, was carefully dis
cussed.
Commissioner Drake called atten'
ton to the fact that the general in
terest now taken throughout the coun'
try in all matters pertaining TO in.
surance had eliminated in a general
demand for a more thorough and uni
form regulation of the insurance busi'
ness by adequate and uniform laws
The differences existing in the insur'
ance laws Of the various states made
it extremely difficult to regulate the
business of the insurance companies
which, in practically every case, Is an
| interstate matter.
The laws regulating the business OF
life and other insurance companies IN
! the various states were framed and
adopted at various times, to suit the
| existing conditions, and, frequently
| only Individual cases, without regard
for their applicability in general
way. The result was that many oi
| the laws in force in various states
are antequated, do not longer suit the
changed conditions, and in many ways
are in direct conflict with the laws
/ Of other states.
| The object of this conference is tc
consider all questions relating to in
surance matters with great care
select the best features of the law:
in the various states and complement
| them, wherever they are deficient
/ and, compile them into a model ccd'
/ with a view of securing its adoption
/ by congress for the District Of Co
lumbia, and by the various Legislative
territories
