WAR IN CENTRAL AMERICA

ry war-perhaps two wars or more
with as many revolutions added for

partment officials now expect to mark
the summer of 1907 In Central Amer.
lea. They are much cast down over
the sudden and unexpected failure OF
the Joint efforts Of the governments OF
Mexico and the United States to bring
about q condition Of permanent peace
between the turbulent republics in
Central America.
Oficial news of this failure reached
the state department yesterday from
one Of its representatives in Nicara.
qua who forwarded the explanation
Of the president of that country Of his
participation in the attack on Acajut.
la. The exasperating feature of Pres
ident Zelaya's message. according to
the state department. was the way in
which he sought to place upon Mexico
and America the responsibility Tor the
attack upon a friendly state by claim.
ing that It was a necessary step in the
execution of plan for a union Of the
Central American republics.
As a matter OF fact, as one of the
officials pointed out. the United
States and probably Mexico would
welcome a combination of the little
states into one republic. under some
capable executive, but 1t has never for
an instant been contemplated that
that such a union should be brought
about by force.

In this connection an interesting col.
ilquoy took place between a Western.

tallest structures on Broadway. The
Westerner had come to think that all
he needed in renting an Office was his
check book and was taken aback when
he was asked some pertinent questions
as to his business. his previous land.
lord and his past connections.
He was able to pass muster all right,
but remarked afterward that he would
ship his family tree on to New York
next time before attempting to rent
an Office there.
This condition is not so generally
true in New York or anywhere else as
1t might be, but certain it is that much
loss could be avoided and a Cleaner"

PURIFIED LIFE INSURANCE.
Benefits from New Law, Which Re.
mains Substantially Unchanged.

Through the influence of Gov.
Hughes, the New York Legislature de.
cided to make no radical changes in
the new insurance law. It was pointed
out by Gov. Hughes that the New York
law has already accomplished wide
spread reforms, with proportionate
benefits to policyholders, and that 1t
should be given thorough trial be-
fore any amendments were seriously
considered. It is estimated that the
cost of the Encouragement of the past
did not average more than 20 cents to
each policyholder, while the benefits
to present and future policyholders
will amount to many times more and
be cumulative besides. The speed
craze Of the big companies and the ex.
cessive cost of securing new business
was the most extravagant evil of the
old arrangements. Under the new
regime the cost of new business has
already been greatly reduced, along
with other economies.
The showing made by the Equitable
Life Assurance Society in its report
Ior 19U6 was ID strong argument
against meddling with the new law.
In the Equitable alone there was q
saving of over 100000 in expenses,
besides an increase in the income
from the society's assets amounting
to as much more. The ratios Of the
Equitable's total expenses to its total
income was 1920 in 1904, 1889 in
1905, and only 14.4s9o in 1906. The
dividends paid to Equitable policy.
holders in 1906 amounted to $7,289, 1884,
which was an increase of more than
go over 1905.
While the Equitable made better
showing than any other big company,
all reported radical economies and un.
der such conditions the Legislature
wisely decided to leave the law sub.
stantially as it stands.
