ancholia and He is Com

Tony Flagamaos, 50, a miner of
Pitcairn mine, was declared a lunatic
late Friday afternoon at the close of
an examination before Justice Samuel
w. Gordon and he now sits in mel
ancholy stupor in the county Jail
awaiting transportation to the state
hospital for the insane at Weston.
Constable Thomas R. Kearns took
him into custody Just before the hear
ing at his home at Pitcairn following
the issuance of lunacy warrant.
The mans lunacy is in the nature
of deep melancholia and the most OF
the time he sits and grieves over inn
aginary troubles without saying any
thing. When questions are asked him
he gives incoherent answers. He has
a wife and two little children at his
home. Commitment papers have been
forwarded to the hospital authorities
at Weston and n guard from that in
stitution will come and get him with
in day or two

On the Famous Berkeley
Springs Property is
Granted.

A conditional option has been
granted by the State Board of Public
Works, to L. A. Clark, OF Pittsburg;
W. W. Wood Of Baltimore, and Forest
W. Brown, of Charles Town, on the
Berkeley Springs property which is
held by the state, This option will
hold until January II. 1911, and it is
provided that the parties making the
proposition for the lease of the Ber-
kelley Springs property are to expend
features, and will be kconducted by
Guiding new hotel, baths, beautify-
ing the grounds, etc, and II the
lesses comply with the conditions
imposed to the satisfaction Of the
Board of Public Works and the Ber-
kelley Springs board, lease for 80
years will be granted.
The Berkeley Springs property has
a place in history that is in many
ways unique. Long before the occu-
patton of the land east of the Ale
ghanies by white settlers it was the
rendezvous of a tribe of Indians who
believed that its waters were holy and
all healing to the righteous before
Manitou. This is said to have been
preserved in the tradition of this
tribe of red men. In George Washing
tons time the springs were popular
and later it ranked as one of the fore
most summer resorts, being in a de-
lightful region and only short dis
lance from the city Of Washington,
from which city many high officials
would gather for conferences during
the heated months. In past years the
property has not had such improve
ments as were needed and it is the
plan of those who propose 10 lease
Berkeley Springs to make it one of
the best mountain retreats in the
country.

Changes win
Be Asked For
BY the State Fire Marshal
in the State Insurance
Laws.

In report from the state auditors
office, state fire marshal's department,
1t is stated that recommendations have
been made up relative to the asking
for changes in the laws governing the
Insurance companies in the state. The
prospective legislation report is as
follows:
The ensuing session of the legisla-
ture which convenes at the capital in
January will be asked 10 make some
needed amendments 10 the insurance
laws. The auditor is now the attorney
in-fact for every foreign corporation
doing business in this state and for
every observation-disclosures corpora
ton. Several instances have arisen
where an insurance company, after
being licensed to transact business in
West Virginia and after it has sue
ceeded in placing much business with
in the state, has Withdrawn. Under
the present law it is doubtful If the
auditor has the authority to accept
service on such companies in case
they are attacked in the courts. For
instance, an insurance company.
transacting either fire or life bush
ness, has withdrawn from the state
when policyholder is forced to re-
sort to the courts in the adjustment
of loss. Unless the auditor is the at
TO accept service for the
Insurance company. the policyholder
would be compelled to leave the state
to bring suit against the company. The
Insurance commissioner is. therefore,
of the opinion that the law should be
amended constituting the auditor at
torney-in-fact for these foreign cor
poratlons so long as any liability re-
mains outstanding in the state.
The legislature will also be asked to
enact legislation dealing with unau-
thorized insurance. In the last month
there has gone from this state from
$4,000 to $G,OOO'in premiums to COM
panies which are unauthorized to
business in West Virginia. 1t
is estimated that there is $50, 900
worth of insurance carried in unau-
companies. This is both un-
fair to those companies which are
complying with our laws and unfair to
the state which is deprived OF consid-
cradle revenue and has no recourse as
the business of these companies Isl
through the mails, the rep
seldom coming into the
state. 1t is believed this abuse can be
by legislation and bill has
been prepared looking to that end.
In the next issue of the Bulletin at
tention will be called to other needed
legislation.

ter and other telegraphlc service in
connection With outgoing ocean
malls so that this week OF trans
continental time may be saved.

kilograms from any part of the
country destined to Europe and will

dressed envelopes by the first out
going Atlantic steamship mail. The
same plan will be followed in San
Francisco, Seattle and Vancouver
for trans-Pacific mails.
This will enable correspondence to
be dispatched from any part of the

MAGHINISTS
On the Western Maryland
Railroad Are on a
Strike.

ELKINs, Dec. S.-Regarding the
discharge of two of their fellow mach
inists, NJ. P. Brightbill and Dan Cur
renee, as a blow aimed at their union,
recently formed, the machinists, help
ers and apprentices in the shops Of
the Western Maryland railway here
have gone on strike. Brightbill and
Currence were discharged, so the men
claim, for a trivial cause, leaking
steam chest, and the men refuse to
go back until the two men dismissed
are reinstated. 1t is likely that the
trouble will be settled when com
mittee representing the striking en-
ployes goes to Baltimore for con-
ference with the management of the
road.
