San Francisco Policy Holders, How-

Per Cent Basis
BY Assoclated Press.


SAN FRANCISCO, June 1S.--The
statement that vote of insurance men
taken at a meeting I'm Oakland yester-
panies will cut their payments of losses
rs per cent was premature.
The strongest pressure Is being
brought to bear upon those who took
the stand for a general slash to force
their withdrawal from such position.
There will be another general meeting
in Oakland within few days. All the
companies have wired to their home
offices for Instructions ard as soon as
they are advised they will get together
to agree II possible. upon q course that
shall govern all settlements.
Names Kept Secret
The names of the sixty that voted
for a one-fourth discount are being
withheld by the companies, that no in
justice may be done them at this time
should they hereafter decide to pay in
full. The identity of the compan les
that would not Lear of cut at any
time has also been kept secret.
The insurance companies that have
stood for full payment from the start
are telling those that voted for a cut
that the latter course would be fatal
to fire insurance interests.
The meeting segregated the COM
panies into classes and a large part of
the negotiations looking to an agree
ment upon the settlement of losses will
be carried on among the home offices in
the east Those favorable to a full
payment are very hopeful that they will
impress all the companies with the
wisdom of such a course.

Among the special professional schools
that are offered in different parts of
the old world none is more unique than
the sugar school, recently opened at
St Ghislain, Belgium. The course,
which covers two years, leads to a
diploma, which will insure the holder a
lucrative position with any of the large
sugar manufacturers on the continent.
The student body is of course not
very large. owing to the novelty of the
course, but the curriculum is exception
ally comprehensive including instruc-
ton in the fundamental underlying
studies, such as physics and general
chemistry, in addition to such direct
studies as sugar technology. sugar
chemistry, sugar legislation, industrial
factories, sugar accounts, cane and
sugar raising etc.
Schools of this character are much
needed in the industrial world, being
analogous to the technical schools
which have been found so extremely
valuable.-Philadelph Record.
