WANT TO GIVE AGENTS MORE.
New York Insurance Companies Feel Ham
pered in Writing New Business

Considerable interest is being manifested IN the
financial statements Of the various llfe insurance
companies chartered under the laws of New York
State. especially regards the effect of the In
surance laws which became operative on me hrst
of last year limiting the cost and defining the
method OF expenditure for procuring new busl-
ness II is probable that few New York state
companies have ISSUED amount of new insur-
ance sufficient offset the policies canceled as
the result of deaths, surrenders and lapses.
There does not seem to be any serious opposl-
ton by the insurance interests to the total lmi-
tation of expense imposed by the law which may
be incurred in any calendar year, and, so far as
ascertained. the companies do not desire to exceed
that limit. There is. however, a growing demand
for greater freedom the part of the managers
TO compensate agents in such way TO meet
the needs Of each individual company.
From the forty-eghth annual report of the
Home Life Insurance Company, OF which George
T. Ide is president. ii appears that gain has
been made in the amount of insurance in force.
that the assets have been increased nearly ST.
coo 600. and that 100000 paid to policy
holders il dividends.

NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR MIGHT RIDES.
So Says Tobacco Trust in Statement Showing
Kind of Product Bought

In official statement issued by the American
Tobacco Company. that corporation dsca1ms re-

statement most the disorder is TO be met with IN
the region where dark fired" tobacco is grown. at
HopkinsviIle Russelville. Clarksville, and other
points The tobacco people say they use so per cent
of the total production of the districts growing
hurley tobacco, and perhaps third OF the output
from the country which grows Green River To-
bacco but practically none of the dark fired
1t is also denied that there exists any agreement
between the so-called tobacco trust and the to-
bacco growers and dealers in Kentucky. Further
more it is contended the prices being paid FOR
tobacco are much higher than they were ten years
ago. and there has been no attempt TO 90 t0H
tobacco farmers by depressing prices.
An official, who is acquainted with the government
investigation into methods of the American To-
bacco Company. said last night that the company
had demonstrated alacrity In opening up its
documents until compelled to do by court order.
During the last days there have been sessions
