A A I: POLICY \
Virginia Carolina Chemical Com
pany Loses Case Against
Casualty Company.
D E c SION I'm AsHEvILLE
Policy Held to Include Officials
and Office Employees in
Liability.

BY a decision handed down yester-
day by Judg go u. CT. Pritchard In tho
United States Circuit Court at Ashe-
vile, N. e., the Virginia. Carolina
Chemical Company Is held liable for
the. payment OF back insurance at a.
cents on the 800 on the salaries Of Its
officials and ONCE employees to the
amount Of about $4,000. the decision
having the effect OF a verdict for the
insurance company for approximately
$3.50.
AS explained by g. e. Borden, assist
ant to the president OF the Virginia.
Carolina Chemical Company. last night
the company carries a blanket accident
policy on all OF Its factory employees.
The insurance contract for the five
years from 1893 to 1903 went to the
United States Casualty Company.
through y. B. Moore & Company,
agents. the Casualty Company agree
Ing TO insure all OF the employees OF
pany on the basis OF AZ cents on each
800 Of pay roll.
Holds Policy binding.
The point involved in the suit was
whether the salaries paid the execu-
tive officers and Office employees and
others except those actually working
In the various manufacturing plants
OF the company. should be included in
the statement OF pay roll upon which
the Insurance company was to base the
insurance premiums from year to year.
Y, In his opinion Judge Pritchard holos
that since the executive officers and
office employees OF the Chemical Com
.pany were Included In the terms Of the
policy. and the Casualty Company
would have been liable for Insurance
under the wording OF the policy as
drawn. then the salary paid these off,
GERS should have been Included In the
statement. An auditing OF the Chem
ical Companies books shows about
100000 In salaries on which premiums
We're unpaid during the Ave years when
the contract was held by the United
states Casually Company. and Judge
Pritchard rules in effect that the Cas-
ualty Company can recover back pre-.
miums at the contract rate OF AZ cents
on the 500. or approximately $500.
Operatives Protected.
MT. Borden explained that 1t was
customary for large corporations to
carry accident insurance 10 protect
their factory employees. and 1t had been
the intention OF the company to in
clude only such employees in the policy
as drawn. Since the time at issue the
insurance has been placed elsewhere,
the new policies embracing only the.
factory employees. The point was never
raised during the five years that the.
insurance was in force, ana Gals
OF the company assert that 1t would
never have been had not the Chemical
company seen fit to place its accident
insurance elsewhere. "a

Two two-foot high pickaninnies were

stealing rides on street car Tenders,
thereby endangering their lives and
making the street railway company
liable to n suit for damages on account
of their venturesome SPIRIT
Inspectors have tried vainly for
some time to put a stop to boys steal

warned, their parents have been
warned, but without much avail. They
continue to indulge in that f,orbiddN,

pleasures, often ends In death. Now
the Inspectors resort to warrants and
