MUCH PROPERTY
IS NOT INSURED
Even That Which Is Protected Is In Many Cases in Very Small
Amounts by Large Number of Companies, and Local
Agents Are Not Permitted Accept Certain Risks at Any
Price Though the Recent Raise in Rates Not Accountable

Are there enough fire insurance com
panies doing business I'm this state to take
care OF the business here?
The belief is expressed by a prominent
insurance man that many thousands OF
dollars i'm risks remain unplaced here be-
cause OF the unwillingness of the COM
panies now operating here to take them,
Notwithstanding the recent increase OF 10
per cent. I'm the rates.
According to this authority when "A big
business house places 100000 insurance.
that sum Is divided into about 200 poll
cies OF 5000 each: and few companies take
more than one Of the policies.
Less than 200 companies are now doing
business I'm Rhode Island" he said.
There are hardly more than from l25 20
$50 stock companies and but few mutual
companies: and 1 would not be at all sur
prised II some OF the companies go out
OF business here before January. Every
time a company quits that makes IL more
difficult 10 place risks with the remaining
companies.
II represent number OF companies
here which will not take a certain class
OF risks under any circumstances. There
are any number OF companies not operat-
ing here that would take all the float-
ing life insurance now unplaced; but my
certificate 10 do business here would prob
ably be revoked and a fine imposed by
the insurance commissioner II were fool
ish enough TO do any business for such
companies, as the policies they might

The local Republican leaders OF New

has lost considerable ground in Newport
and all over the county. especially in Mid

had been running politics, state and town,
as they saw AT for years, were dethroned
last spring I'm the town election.
The same dose Is ready for them in the
fall. as the Good Government club Will
not allow the name of Colt. who is the
machine candidate TO be even men

Colt Is a dead issue In Newport. II is

Barrels OF money will be sent 20 New
port to insure the success OF the Repub-
can legislative ticket; but the party Is
badly Handicapped from the start on reg
istration which the Democrats by work
ing night and day turned strongly In their

This year there will be n larger number
OF Independent votes polled IN Newport

Honest Democrats in the First ward

years caucuses. do not intend 10 per-
nit the dose TO be repeated this year.
and have begun to organize to defeat
the schemes of the "Hessians" In that
ward and their machine Republican
allies throughout the city.
A meeting Of the representative
Democrats Of the First ward has been
called for ST o'clock next Thursday
evening. In Liberty hall, Market square

In the notice for the meeting tn?
purpose is plainly stated 10 be ito
discuss the political situation in the
ward and to take such steps as may
be necessary TO insure the Democratic
party a square deal at the caucus to be
held Sept. 81"
The decision OF the partisan board OF
canvassers and registration last year,
declaring the caucus conducted in the
ward at that time to be fraudulent,
still left the "Hessians" In control OF
the WdIu committee anu utpllNth Allt
honest Democrats of any voice in the
city and state conventions OF the Demo

The present organization in the ward
is in disfavor with the Democratic state
organizations while their opponents
who really have a majority OF the
genuine Democrats on their side, have
the hearty support OF the democratic
state central committee and Of honest
Democrats throughout the city.
1t is planned to put into the field in
the First ward this year a full ticket

and delegates TO the city, assembly,

FREDERICK {. CARPENTER
DIED At DINNER TABLE

Attorney Frederic Everett Carpenter of
East Providence dropped dead at a table
In a restaurant on Weybosset street last
evening.
Mr. Carpenter was a past division com
mander OF the Sons OF Veterans, and
when he died was division adjutant lie
was one OF the leading members of Ris-
ing Sun Lodge A. +. and A. M, OF East
Providence and had been tax collector and
acting town solicitor OF that town.
with him when he died were Col Ed
ward s. Mouton. John III. Leonard, Frank
T. Sibley, Orray r. Mason and Charles II.
Young, all members OF the Sons Of Veter-
ans
Mr. Carpenter had just started TO speak
10 Mr. Sbley, when suddenly he hesitated
and gradually leaned over TO the left side
OF the chair.
Believing that Mr.. Carpenter had only
dropped his napkin and was trying 10 pick
Il up, the other diners for nomen: pnid
no attention 20 him After few seconds,
however, Messrs. Sibley AMI Moulton
gently placed him upright in his chair.
They realized that something serious
had happened. and, while Eome OF the
party FASTENED TO call physicians others
ran TO get stimulants These were OF no
avail. and Mr.. Carpenter did not utter
word.

Business hasn't fallen off at all since
the rates were increased. because OF the
necessity business men labor under OF
protecting themselves There are al least
two concerns I'm this city that carry 81
100000 or more OF insurance; and that is a
large measure OF protection. not only for
themselves but for their creditors They
couldn't afford TO drop their insurance:
and the companies that recently increased
the rates know IL.
THE agents here, as the News Demo-
crat has stated, have fought for the low
est rates the insurance companies can
grant: and they have advocated the most
up-to-date protective measures for the
pieces insured, although such a policy al
ways reduces the agents commissions.
For instance a comparatively unpro-
tected place carrying 100000 OF insurance
will have 20 pay per cent. while the
mere installation of a time clock, al a
cost Of say 800. may bring the premium
cost down 10 one-half OF one PER cent.
"As the agents commission is about Is
per cent OF the premium, he gets only
fourth as much by advocating these
improvements as he would IL he did not
advocate them"

HEAT PREVENTS
TRIAL Of
HARvARO'S CREW

Putney Eng, Aug. a.-The projected
full course trial OF the Harvards with
picked crew OF the London Rowing club
was postponed today In consequence OF
the heat. Thousands lined the river banks
In anticipation OF the promised treat, but
the blazing sun and the oppressive at
mosphere decided the visiting crew
against undertaking the effort. The Har-
ward crew did a, couple of sprints with
the London Rowing club eight.
The dashes lasted a minute and two
minutes. The Americans struck water at
the rate OF 80 TO the minute The London
ers showed TO the front at the start. but

casion

boat drew up and was half a length

The Building Trades council has
members OF the city property COM
mittee for giving work chiefly to "un-
fair" firms, and has placed the Techni-
cal high building on the unfair list"
After the calling OF "A strike among
the workmen on the high school build
ing yesterday. the matter was reported
to the council last evening in detail
and the business agents asked that the
building be placed on the unfair
list"
This is all that will be done until
IL is known whether the remainder OF
the work will be given 10 unfair"
firms In which case the unions viii
again act.
During the course OF the discussion
on the matter a motion was made that
the Providence Building Trades coun-
ell condemn the action OF the city prop
erty committee for allotting the work
building to firms unfair to organized
labor, and this was done.
This motion will be endorsed in all
of the unions allied with the council;
and then those members of the city
property committee who can be reached
will be fought by means OF the ballot
this fall, an organized crusade against
them being planned by the council.

Resolved. that all affiliated unions be
instructed TO strictly enforce the estab-
lished Saturday pay day"
I'm talking over the matter. II was stated
that one OF the arguments the employers
advanced was that by paying off during
the middle OF the week the men were
more likely TO report promptly on the
next morning
This is denied by the men. who say they
do not earn more than enough. TO live
on and that there are but a comparatively
few OF the members OF the unions who
are so unreliable as would be inferred
by that statement.
They state that one OF the chief objects
Of the unions is TO make a man keep TO
his work and prove reliable. and that the
unreliable ones soon find their way out
OF all organizations
on the other hand, the men claim that
they and their families on account OF es-
tablished customs. can obtain more for
their money on Saturday than on any
other day, and are thus better prepared
TO meet their obligations
It is stated at the city hall that IL the
strike on the Technical high school build
ing Is not settled within a few DAYS. the
city property committee will hold con-
ference with Architect Han. who is super
vising the work; and some action will be

been officially notified OF the strike but
he had heard that there was a rumor that
the trouble would soon occur.
