Gently destroyed by fire, and no move

of the plant. There is a runor in cir
culation to the effect that the Dock
engines, Of which Herman Dock is the
inventor and which were manufactured
in Hope Valley, are to be made at the
New London Marine Iron works. This
rumor, however, has been denied in
New London. The Insurance Standard
says:
ut is understood that Lloyds, Lon
don. has declined liability on its pro-
portion of the loss sustained by fire a
few weeks ago by Nichols & Lang
worthy at Hope Valley, r. l., on the
grounds of incorrect warranty 1t is
stated in London that the risk for
which the binder was given was de-
clared as 'sprinklered,' and Lloyds
maintain that a small part of the plant
was unsprinklered. and hence it is
justified in disclaiming liability. Lloyds
had line of $65,000 for which the poll
cies have not yet been issued and the
loss is placed at 20 per cent" The total
insurance on the plant was over $780,
