COMPROMISE SUGGESTED.
Insurance Companies May Reach
Agreement on Frisco Claims.

Oakland, Cal. June 15.-The Elk
aniner today says: The 81 ins urance
companies who wish to settle losses in
the san Francisco fire on dollar-fo, :
dollar basis yesterday at meeting in
Reeds hall suggested a compromise
tr the other companies who seek to
establish a 10 per cent basis of settle
mcnt This is now being discussed by
all insurance men in this city, for and
against the - per cent. cut.
TIL" proposed compronlis" is an
agreement which all companies are TO
sign and which will permit a fiat set
tlcmcnt on all losses where it is clear
" established that no earthquake dam
age was sustained by their property
before the fire. ON all property dam
aged BY earthquake the companies in
tereStod are to be permitted to eXcl-
cisc their own discretion as to thn
basis on which the loss is to be settled.
This compromise WAS proposed by
the large companies that are holding
out for full settlement of the losses.
1t was made to keep the other COM
panieS from boiling the bureau and
establishing bureau of their own. 1t
was believed that d split in the Under
writer's Adjusting Bureau at this time
would be disastrous to the insurance
situation. But the cut payment COM
panies were not prepared to abandon
their claims for a general reduction and
asked that a meeting be called in a
few days at which this matter shall be
finally settled.
