HIGHER RATES
OF INSURANCE
Raise Of twenty-five Per
Cent In All Coast Cities
APPLIES TO WASHINGTON
Law of This State Against Com
bination to Fix Rates
Will Not Avail

OAKLAND, Cal, June 15.-The 80
insurance companies represented on
the board of fire underwriters for the
Pacific coast have taken action to re-
coup themselves for their San Fran
cisco losses by raising rates approx
imately 25 per cent in California, Ne
vada Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Utah
and Arizona The state of Washing
ton is the only coast state outside the
Jurisdiction of this board. Several
years ago Washington enacted law
known as the anti compact law which
prohibits insurance companies from
combining to fix rates or in any way
controlling insurance affairs. Presi-
dent Haven said today:
"The law does not permit us to fix
rates in Washington, but we are
charging them just the same" This is
clear evidence that the board as rep
resented by agents in Washington will
exact raised rates there as in other
states.

been strong enough to prevent its

The pure food bill has been slaugh-

effort of it's enemies, and secondly, by
the innocuous support of its friends. 1t
has been a sort of privileged motion or
continuing special order for six weeks
Or more without doing 1t any good, and
within a day or two petition has been
in ciruclation on the floor Of the house
to put ahead Of it the immigration bill,
which is mentioned after the pure food
measure in the general order by which
both these bills received special con-
sideration. It's history in the house of
representatives is a complete demon

Fair Applicant for Divorce Acoords
Her First "coIony" Interview.
SIOUX FALLS, S. D., June 15.-Jas.
G. Blaine is not expected to resist his
wife's prospective suit for divorce to
be filed in the district court here six
months hence and, on the other hand,
she will not ask him to pay her any
alimony.
Furthermore, she will not seek to
have his divorce from his first wife de-
clared void, as has been reported, but
instead is interested in sustaining it's
validity. as she would otherwise never
have been legally married herself. She
thinks she has ample ground for a
divorce without resorting to technical
tiles.
Such, in substance, is the information
given out by Mrs. Blaine in an inter-
view here today, the first she has
granted since she came a fortnight
ago Immediately upon her arrival she
employed Peter j. Rodge as her at
tOrney, who told her it would not do
to admit that she was here for the pur-
pose of getting a divorce, as she must
establish in court that she came as a
bona fide resident
Accordingly, she was very chary
about discussing her plans, predicating
her statements on the theory that she
had not decided whether to sue for a
divorce or not. She says she has per-
manently left the parental roof of Ad-
miral Hichborn at Washington

TONS
1t is said the presidents letter to
Chairman Wadsworth disappearing the
inspection bill contains tart express
sions. 1t is said that he virtually ac-
cuses the committee of being subject
to the influence of the packers. He
decries court review and the manner
of providing the cost of inspection.
Wadsworth's reply is said to be equal
ly peppery.
Bowie of Alabama, submitted to the
house the minority report on the
,tion bill. protesting against the pro-
posed appropriation of two million dol
lars annually to pay for inspection. The
report denOunces the court review pro-
vision as new departure in legisla-
tiun unjustifed by a single fact" 1t
opposes the repeal of the civil service
law in so far as inspectors of meat are
concerned. 1t declares this provision
unsound. dangerous and vicious and
recommends the Beveridge bill as ''far
better to accomplish the purpose and
more satisfactory than the bill the ma
iority of the committee favors,"

Special to the Tribune says:
There is to be a caucus to deter

At least if it gets through the house

political expediency above the interests

weeks of the most strenuous devotion
to the new sane reform movement
in La Crosse has undermined the rea-
son of DR.. J. A. L. Bradield, president
of the La Crosse Citizens league, and
a wealthy and influential oculist.
The climax came yesterday when DR..
Bradfield suffered a complete break
down. He had hurriedly summoned
several leading business men to the
Y. M. c.. A. auditorium, where meet
ing of the La Crosse Pastors union
was in progress.
Unexpectedly Dr. Bradfield appeared
in the meeting and, holding his arms
aloft. summoned the ministers about
him to hear his "divine message from
heaven" DR.. Bradfield said that he
had talked with the angels IN heaven
and had received a divine revelation.
After several minutes of incoherent
speaking. a physician was summoned
by the ministers, and DR.. Bradfield
was persuaded to go to his home,
where he is now under the care Of
nurses.
The doctor attempted to dispatch
numerous telegrams to high officials
everywhere. asking their assistance In
his crusade to rid La Crosse of sin 'py
