BISHOP BREACHES
Sermon at the Conservation Service at
 Christ Church.

The first Sunday after the Epiphany was a notable day at Christ church, significant because it not only marked the twentieth anniversary of the rec torship of Dr. Morgan, but also be- cause it was the occasion for the elo- quent sermon by the Mt, Rev. Leigh ton Coleman, bishop of Delaware. At the service consecratins the altar and reredos given by Mrs Mary Elizabeth Ives.
 The Delaware bishop paid an elo- quent tribute to the worth and charac- ter of Dr. Morgan and to the beautiful church which he had built up in New Haven. It is interesting to recall that Bishop Coleman laid the corner stone of Christ church. The church was fill ed to overfowing with its members friends and visitors. The consecratol and celebrant was the Rt. Rev. A. c IA. Hall, D. D., bishop of Vermont.
 The text chosen was St. Luke ii, 4e: .'And He said unto them, how it is that ye sought me? Knew ye not that ] must be in my Fathers house?"

INCREASING BUSINESS
SECURITY INSURANCE COMPA-
 NY,s GROWTH

Net Premium Gain s114,O51 by Annual
 RepOrt--An Frisco Claims Paid
 Surplus Over All Debts of s374,ss4.
 In the sixty-sixth annual statement of the Security Insurance company, of this city, of which Attorney John w.. filling is president, a very favorable showing, indeed is made considering the heavy losses it sustained in the fire at San Francisco last April. The re- port shows the company to have as sets of $1,9S7, ,945.65, and after providing a reserve for reinsurance of $995,19S and reserve for losses under adjust ment of $114,0S4. it presents a net sur- plus beyond all liabilities of 974,SS4, which, when added to the $5OQ,O0O cap ital, makes a surplus as to policyhold- CTS Of $S74,SS4.
 An officer of the company states that the year of 1906 was the best in the history of the company, considering the amount of business written and the premium therefrom, but of course the loss of $4S0,00O which this concern suffered in the Frisco disaster was severely felt, as 1t practically wiped out it's surplus reserve. However, some time ago, as the Courier announced, l the stockholders of the company ap- l proved plan submitted by the direc- tors for the reduction of the par value of it's stock from forty dollars share to twenty-five dollars share Under this plan the capital of the company was reduced to $312,O00, but at the same time provision was made for the l issuance of seventy-flve hundred new ! shares. This transaction brought the 1 capitalization of the company up to $500,000, as before and added, as all the stock was sold at the price stated $500 900 to the surplus of the company
 This company has paid all It's Frisco i claims amounting to $430,000 and is now included among the companies i whose names were placed on the roll oi honor of insurance concerns, which paid all claims resulting from the coast disaster.
 Speaking of the business year just closed, Victor Roth, assistant secre. tary, says that to-day the company'S net premiums for the year amounted to $1,109,2 ,259, an increase of $114O52 oyei the previous year.
 The able management of the securi. ty company and its conservative un' derwriting policy, together with it equitable treatment of claimants, ha' established an enviable record and as sured the confidence of it's pollcyhold' CTS.

RED LIGHTS STILL AHEAD
PRESIDENT HILL RElTERATES
PREDICTION OF TROUBLE IN
BUSINESS WORLD.

New York, March 27.-James ].
Hill. president OF the Great Northern
Railway company, has returned to the
city from the Northwest. When asked
for his views on industrial and rail-
way conditions he replied:
Remember that there is a decided
difference between hard times and
business recession. There is nothing
in present conditions to make any
body apprehensive.
Several months ago." he continued,
dropping into railroad parlance, 1.-The
lights showed red to ME and it looked
like: a recession in business. Wall
street maintained the opinion that the
lights showed green and that meant
that everything ahead was clear.
1.-The rec lights are still ahead and
that means that we ought to go slow.
The recession that has set in is not
formidable, but business has been af-
fecteo. About IS per cent of the coun-
try's business is done on credit. This
credit is impaired and that is the chief
trouble.
"As said months ago the depres-
sion will affect the luxuries of life,
such as automobiles and diamonds.
Fewer of them will be sold, but the
great necessaries of life-wheat, coal.
iron and lumber-will continue to be
used"
