Company from Liability.

San Francisco. Jan. 24-The earthquake
clause upon which many of the insurance
companies based their refusal to pay the
full amount of policies on losses arising
out OF the recent disaster in this city
was considered not sufficient by the Jury
which heard the evidence in the case of
Thomas Bergin against the Commercial
Union Assurance company Of London
The case has been tried before Judge
Whitson in the circuit court for two
weeks and the verdict was rendered this
morning in favor Of the plaintiff. the
judgment being for S6.77S. the amount OF
the principal, $500, and accrued inter
est.
Judge Whitson in his charge to the
jury gave rather strong endorsement to
the exemption feature of the earthquake
clause directing the jury. that if it found
that the fire originated from the earth
quake even remotely. the Judgment
should be- for the defendant company

them to prevent vote, owing to the
short time left to the session and the
big amount of necessary legislation that

Referring to the talk i'm New York

Now. why should men say such

the opportunity was eXceptionable and
that l might do much for New York
