BRITISH SHIPS IN
sURED FOR $4,000, 600.

[London Cable Message to Indianap-
oils News
The Admiralty has decided to take
out the largest policy for maritime in
surance ever issued. 1t is for $780,
100000 and is intended to cover the
risk incurred by the inclusion of mer-
chantmen in the naval maneuvers to
be held between Gibraltar and the En-
glish Channel in June and July.
1t was recognized that as the ma
neuvers will be carried out under con-
ditions approximating as far as posi-
BILE a sudden outbreak of war, both
men of-war and merchantmen will be
exposed to considerable iisk, espec-
tally at night, when steaming without
lights will be the rule.
The Admiralty has arranged the
policy with committee representa-
tive of London underwriters. The
premium payable by the Admiralty
will be between $4,000 and 100000.
AS the policy covers damage to
ships or cargoes and demurrage, the
opinion is expressed in some quarters
that the premium is not adequate to
the risk, but a majority of the upper
writer's of insurance will be repre-
scented in the policy, if only on patri-
otto grounds.
The people of the British Islands
now are insured by ninety-siX com
panies to the enormous total of more
than S4,7O9, 100000, and this does not
include the figures of colonial and
foreign companies.
The blue book which annually APP
pears on this subject has just been
published Premiums paid last year
to $17S,220,7O5, and the
years claims came to $110,712,175, |
here being an increase under the lat !
.er head of $5,6S3,71O. The compan
les closed the year with balances
in the aggregate to $685.
I44,715. OF this sum they now have
almost $180,000,000 invested in land,
house property and ground rents.

finally settled, the nation viii hav
gone long way toward the settle
