INSURANCE DEPARTMENT Bull
LETIN NO. 10,

Certain fire insurance companies
have recently been adding hal
rider to their tornado policies. Ir
many cases the companies are not
. authorized by their charters to write
hail insurance and the department has
ruled that such companies must nc
longer attach these riders.
The Fletcher company of Mime
apolls: representing the Philadelphia
Casualty, company, has failed to
license local agents in different parts
OF the state who were writing business
for this company The matter was
called to the attention of the insurance
company and the license Of the
Fle> cher company was Cancelled.
StOc> control of the Provident Saw
iugs Lits Assurance society of New
York has been purchased by Mr..
Laneham and o, her capitalists and the
process of reo1g.'nization is under
way. At present the society is pro-
hibited from writing new business
and it will remain in a state OF
suspense until the superintendent OF
insurance of New York is satisfied
that it is in a solvent and trustworthy
condition.
The attorney general has ruled that
no riders may be attached to the
Minnesota Standard Fire Insurance
policy except those that are specifically
provided for by law. Companies
violating this provision are guilty OF
a gross mlsdeneanor.
The Rhode Island Insurance COM
pany of Providence, r. l., has been
licensed to transact fire business in
this state; capital, $500, 900; surplus
as regards policy holders, 5000, 722: SO.

to the following: Mrs. Peter
Leon, Mrs. M. Christensen
Ellen Houde, Gustav Elk, Johr
Vertln, agent, and the JAG. Kiewel
Brewing company.
Estimates of cost of sidewalks
ordered in by the city were presented
and fled with the city clerk. The
street commissioner has commenced tc
have some of the sidewalks, ordered
in, constructed. No rebate is given
property owners for sidewalk con-
structed by the city, the full amount
being taxed against the property
owner, therefore if he wants to have
the benefit Of the rebate, he should
have his sidewalk commenced before
the street commissioner gets around.
The city council then passed the
following ordinance and resolutions,
ordinance relative to grades of streets
and avenues, the city engineer grade
sheet being filed with it; resolution
instructing the street commissioner to
have sidewalks, ordered in, con-
structed; and resolution instructing
city clerk to advertise for bids for the
work of constructing a block of walk
in Rothwell's addition to Little Falls
and two blocks of walks in Thayer's
addition.
Iii regard to the construction of a
stretch of sidewalks on First street
the property owners of
which asked that it be laid on the
natural grade instead OF the established
grade, as by the latter, sidewalk
would be so low that in the spring 1t
would be submerged. The consensus of
opinion was that it would be best to
have this stretch of walk laid on the
natural grade. The matter was
dropped for the time being.
A resolution, designating the
number of policemen, and ordinance,
setting the salary of the police, was
passed. This has the sole effect of

WEST SIDE RESIDENT SUFFERS
Temporary LOSS OF HIS
WARDROBE

Arthur Stroman, who makes his
home with the family Of A. Swedabck
in apartments in the Nelson block,
was the victim of sneak thieves last
Friday evening. During the day a
young man, about IL years of age,
who was stranger, had been working
for Arthur Reynolds in his roller rink,
located in the Nelson building. 1t
was noticed that this fellow took
general survey of the premises. A
little while before the rink opened up
in the evening this stranger went up
with an elder man and sat down on
the railing at the head of the stairs.
The young fellow then went to the
A. Swedback apartments and asked
the lady what time it was. It is
thought that the other man got busy
during this time and stole what he
could lay his hands on. The two were
seen a little later, one of them having
a bundle under his arm. Some. time
after this Mr.. Stroman announced that
a new suit, coat and vest and pair
of trousers belonging to him were
missing. The two strangers who
, visited the Swedback apartments
caller IN the evening were suspected,
and were quickly found, and taken in
, to custody by the police. The articles
, of clothing were found Saturday after
noon under nearby warehouse, where
they had been hidden. The two
, suspects were then released, Mr..
Stroman being satisfied with the re-
+, turn of his property.
