Austin, Texas, July 11.--Some Of the
most drastic laws ever passed by the
Legislature Of any state were enacted
at the session OF the Thirtieth Texas
General Assembly and will become eff
fective tomorrow. AS result, nearly
all the larger life insurance compan-
les will close their offices and retire
from the state today. many bucket
shops will quit business and the sa-
looms Of Texas will be closed for ten
or twenty days or until new licenses
can be secured. This is. only small
part Of the havoc worked by the
Solons and many declare that they
s'didn't know it was loaded" when they
fired the legislative broadside.
BY the terms of the Robertson bill
regulating life insurance companies,
all companies doing business in the
State are required to deposit rs per
cent Of the reserves on Texas bust
ness inside the State, and pay a tax
Of per cent on gross premiums col
lected. Among the companies which
have left the state rather than com.
oly win the terms of this law are the
New York Life Insurance Co. New
York Mutual Life. Northwestern Mutu-
al Equitable Life. Manhattan Life,
Home Life and Massachusetts Life.
While the big companies are leaving,
numerous smaller concerns have APP
nlied for permission to conduct offices
in Texas and the citizens of the State
win not be deprived of opportunity
to GET life insurance. Hereafter poll
cyholders Of the deserving life insur-
ance companies viii have to remit
premiums due to the headquarters of
the companies. as they will not be al
lowed to have representatives or
agents in Texas for the collection of
premiums on business secured prior
n tbe time Of withdrawal or even to
collect such premiums through any
bank or other agency within the State.
The loss OF revenue to Texas will be

sources. The action Of the Associa-
