jumped to $26. then to $27, then to
$2S, then to $50. then to s32, and finally

SACRAMENTO, Feb. 6.-The Senate
committee on insurance. at the sugges-
tion of Dr. George A. Moore represent
ing California life insurance interests
has agreed to amend the bill providing
that an organization wishing to carry
on the business of accident insurance
shall raise an additional $4,000 capital
by extending the time of it's enforce
ment to January, 1908. The extension
is deemed necessary to enable Califor-
MIA companies to raise the extra cap
ital.
Four new insurance bills were in
troduced today. One by Senator Wolfe
provides that indemnity companies be
compelled to deposit 100000 in securi-
ties before entering business in Cali
fornia. The three other bills were in
troduced by Senator Curtin, the most
important being one that empowers
the insurance commissioners TO satisfy
a judgment secured against an insur-
ance company from its securities In
his possession upon the application of

taxes on many little things that
