attention to the fact that the vaults
of the banks in the Chicago fire and
in the Baltimore. fire remained intact
and the banking institutions were able
to meet their obligations.
But he recognized that there are
many manufacturers, merchants and
other business men who have notes out
standing which the banks hold, and
that it will be necessary for them to
have time to get upon their feet and
meet their obligations. He is satisfied
that the banks will not fail to grant
whatever extension may be absolutely
necessary and he is quite sure that the
banks turnout the country will dc
everything in their power to enable
the San Francisco institutions to re-
cover from the awful destruction which
has resulted from the earthquake and
fire.
It is apparent from the talk which
has been going on between bankers
during several months and which dur
ing the last few days has been directed
especially toward the alienation of the
financial situation at San Francisco,
that there is developing a national
movement for cooperative effort to
prevent disturbance Of business in one
part of the country which may affect
finances in other sections.

Not very long ago, popular magazine

the writer asserted, in substance, that all

violation of certain of Natures laws.
But to say that all sickness should be
regarded as criminal, must appeal to
every reasonable individual as radically
wrong.

INSURANCE STOCKS FALL
Many Companies Had Reinsured Por.

Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service.
London, April 21-The shares of the
London fire insurance companies have
fallen rapidly since Wednesday. The
total depreciation is estimated at about
$30,0C0,000. The heaviest drops were
in the shares Of the Royal Exchange
company which showed decline of
1917; London Assurance, which went off
l21a, and Phoenix which declined 91b.
The officials are, Of course, unable yet
to indicate the amount of the claims,
but all profess full expectation Of
meeting them without question. The
officials generally deprecate the alarm
at the stock exchanges as wholly I'M
warranted and even foolish.
1t is stated in insurance circles that
the San Francisco risks undertaken by
the London, Liverpool & Globe and the
Royal companies are largely covered by
reinsurance in Great Britain and
America. In Germany the heaviest
burden will fall on the Munich reinsur-
ance company, the largest reinsurance
concern in the world. 1t is expected
that complete disaster will befall sever
al American and English small reinsur-
ance companies.

OPERA CoMPANY's DILEMMA
Shall MIR. Conreid Return Money Ad-

Special to The Journal.
New York, April 21-It was stated
yesterday by representative of Mr..
Conreid that the Conreid Opera COM
pany had taken in $4,000 at the ad-
vance sale of tickets for the grand
opera performances which it was plan
ned to give. in San Francisco. It could
not be said, however, whether Mr.. Con-
reid would return the money.
There is no possibility of his fulfill
ing his contract with the San Francisco
subscribers. Many Of the latter, who
were rich when they gave their support
to the projected season Of opera, are
penniless as a result of the disaster.
It is believed that Mr.. Conreid cannot
conscientiously retain the money now
so sorely needed. It was deposited in a
San Francisco bank, the vaults Of which
are expected to have withstood the
fiery doom which ragged everywhere
around them. Friends Of the director
expect that Mr.. Conreid will contribute
the amount Of his "takings' to the
relief of the stricken San Franciscans.
