AN INTERESTING TRANSACTION.

The last week Of the year witnessed
n transaction in insurance circles In
which our readers will be interested,
as one OF the companies concerned
has. We believe. more people insured
here than any other company operat.
ing in this city.
We refer to the consolidation OF
The American Life and Accident Co
and The Commonwealth Life. The
American Life needs no introduction
as scarcely a week passes In which
we do not give space to two or three
letters Of thanks from pleased claim
ants The Commonwealth operates
to = greater extent in the East and
South.
The American Life has been after
the Commonwealth for some time,
but the deal was only consummated
last Saturday. After lengthy dis
cusslon at the policy y-holders' meeting
It was voted to adopt the name Com.
monwealth Life. as In the territory
in which the latter company operated
there are fourteen companies bearing
the name American, and as most OF
them are small concerns It was feared
that some Of the business transferred
would be lost owing to the confusion
OF names.
This Is the second concern that has
been absorbed by the American Life
