The Christian Endeavor movement, which started
twenty-five years ago in Congregational Church
at Lewiston, Me-, with handful OF members, has
now grown into a mighty organization Of hundreds
OF thousands oe churches and several millions OF
members The secret Of its power lies in the bind
ing together OF the young people for mutual help
in Christian living and service. and while II is a
more potent force in the Christian Church to-day
than at any time in the past, its influence and
membership still rapidly increasing.

WILL SUE
To FORCE
PAYMENTS
Traders Policy Holders
to Resort to Courts
immediately.

The Incorporated policy holders of
the defunct Traders Company of Chi
cago will bring an action in the courts
of Illinois at once to set aside the de-
cree granted in Chicago this week dis
solving the INSURANCE. corporation.
They will allege as grounds for suit
collusion on the part of the directors
and stockholders Of the defunct con-
cern with the attorney for the receiver
for the purpose of preventing the pol
icy-holders of San Francisco from Sc
curing the money due. them on losses.
1t is alleged. and will be made grounds
for the action, that by securing the de-
cree of dissolution the stockholders are
attempting to escape their legal nabil-
titles. @
Furthermore, the policy holders be-
lfeve that the stockholders and direc-
tors of the defunct Traders Company
are deliberately attempting to rob
them by the statement that the COM
pany is insolvent. They believe that
the stockholders can be held for the
losses incurred through the San Fran
cisco fire. They will sue both the
stockholders and directors. This will
all be done in the courts of Illinois It
is the belief of the attorneys who have
had charge of the Organization OF the
policy holders of the Traders Insur-
anc Company that by this method OF
determined fighting the stockholders,
who are reputed to be men of immense
wealth, will be forced to stand good
for the losses of the company.
A meeting of the directors OF the
traders Policy Holders Company, as
the insured have named themselves
was held at the office of Campbell, Met
son & Campbell at 8 o'clock yesterday
morning for the purpose of perfecting
organization. Marshal Hale was elect
ed president of the new corporation.
John s. Partridge was made secretary
and w. P. Plummer treasurer. A COM
mitteef of attorneys, w. F. Humphrey,
:. Fl. Garoutte and Judge Coe, was ap-
pointed TO determine the exact legal
standing OF the corporation ahd to take
immediate steps toward bringing the
suits in the courts of Illinois. Two
afms of Chicago attorneys, Knapp,
Haynie e. Campbell and Bulkley, Gray
& More, were engage to look after the
interests Of the insured in Chicago.
Permanent headquarters for the Ira
1ers' Policy Holders Company will be
opened in few days for the conyen-
ience Of the insured. Forms of trans
fer have already boen made up for the
delivery of the policies to the corpora
tion for collection. The charter has
been received from Sacramento and the
articles of incorporation have been
finally signed. The attorneys for the
corporation will begin the work of
moving on the stockholders via the
courts within the next few days In
the meantime the policy-holde are
transferring their policies to the cor
poration as fast as possible.

Insurance Concerns
Must Report on
Resources.
Secrecy Maintained
Here Will Be Of
No Avail.

!
The strenuous efforts that many In
.surance companies have been making
to conceal the true status of their
financial affairs appear on the point
OF being frustrated. The state Of
Georgia, with It's law requiring the
corporations doing business there to
file statements on June so of their re-
sources and liabilities, affords a rift In
the uiurky conditions that exist here
as to knowledge of the solvency OF
'six-bit" and other concerns. Virtually
all. OF the companies involved in the
California losses are engaged in busi-
ness in the Southern State. and as the
statements they must nile will be pub
lie records policy holders will be able
to gain some idea OF the strength OF
the companies they have to deal with.
OF course. gyrations of the serpentine
order are to be expected when the
companies attempt to justify their
right to continue in business In
Georgia, when at the same time they
are seeking to adjust losses on this
coast on a basis OF 40, so or rs per
cent by pleading lack of funds. I'm
questionably there has been much mis-
representation by the corporation
agents In San Francisco as to the re-
sources, and 1t is fortunate that the
exactions of the Georgia statutes fall
at this opportune time to give policy
holders here some light on the affairs
of the concerns.
1t has been q common practice of
tho insurance companies to submit a
statement to client showing re-
sources and liabilities that make it ap-
pear that the corporation is woefully
swamped. Settlements on compromise
basis have been easily brought about
in this manner with thousands of the
fire sufferers. Not one word would be
vouchsafed as to the amount of re-
insurance carried. Only threats of at
torneys to begin compulsory insolvency
proceedings have availed In a few in
stances to induce the agents to admit
that the corporation carried reinsur-
ance.
But the statements that must be filed
in. Georgia by next Saturday will in
some degree force the companies to
set forth the facts in full. While mis-
statements are looked for, they can
not be of very large proportions If
the companies desire to carry on bust
ness in that State and other parts of
the country. Almost every State in
the Union makes similar requirements
of the companies and 1t is only q mat
ter of few months before the re-
ports giving the public assurance of
the stability must be filed elsewhere.
To save their business the companies
must make the best showing possible,
and the facts and figures set forth in
these statements viii be available for
intelligent action on the part of the
san Francisco policy-holders. 1t hap
pens that Georgia is the first State
to require the filing of such reports
after the California disaster and in this
circumstance all eyes are now turned
in grateful appreciation on the South
ern commonwealth

Treating Wrong Disease.


Many times women call on their family
physicians, suffering as they imagine.

arate and distinct diseases, for which he.
assuming them to be such, prescribes his
