INSURANCE FEES
Biennial Report Of Commits
SiOner Shows Big Bust
ness in Two Years
REPORT GOES TO
LEGISLATURE TODAY

DOVER, Del, Jan. 16.--The biennial
report of Insurance Commissioner
Charles H. Maull, was presented to the
Legislature today
The total receipts of the DEPART
ment during 1909 were S44.74O.29: dur
ing 1910 they We're $47 .566.77. The dis
bursements each year were S2.70O. The
profits TO the State for the respective
years, therefore, were S42,O40.29. and
S44,S66.77
The commissioner states that the
contingent funds of the department
appropriated for the two years by the
General Assembly were inadequaoe TO
defray the necessary expenses. The
report continues: "One reason for the.
deficiency IN the amount of such funds
for this departments use was that
your honorable body did not take into
consideration the fact that during the
present commissioners incumbency.
OF office it has been necessary for all
travelling expenses necessitated by his
official duties to be betrayed from tho
contingent fund and from his private
funds. whereas before his term the
commissioners transportation was
given them free by the railroads
The report further says:
Chapter 46. Volume "a, Laws OF
Delaware, imposes upon the commits
sioner the duty Of collecting from
every S,ate bank, saving bank, trust
and loan company. an anual tax Of
one-ffth of one per centum upon tha
amount of its capital stock, surplus
and undivided profits. This statute
also prescribes many duties and inn
poses much work on the insurance
commissioner without adding i'm any
way to his remuneration. All officers
of the counties and of the State whose
duty II is to collect taxes. other than
the insurance commissioner. receive a
percentage thereof, varying in amount.
"The exercise of the departments
supervision over banking and kindred
corporations IS more costly to the
State than the exercise of its super-
vision over insurance companies and
fraternal, beneficial and Charitable
associations, but the protection afford
cd the public thereby is incompatible
with cost of Il"
Along with this report Mr Mauu
presents the biennial report of the
Bureau of Banking. The Insurance
Commissioner is eX-offcio banking
commissioner. The total amount re-
ceived during 1909 by the bureau was
S171O029; in 1910 the amount waE
S17 7.4SS99. The cost of maintenance
each year was $1,000. The aggregate of
deposits in State banking institutions
September l, 1910, was sl9.S64.51S.
The commissioner recommends that
a law be enacted providing for at least
one thorough examination each wear

Green After Shooting
CheItOn at CriSfieId
SLAYER AND VICTIM
FRIENDS UNTIL RECENTLY

CRISFIELD. Md, Jan. 16--William
w. Green. of Tull's Corner. near here,
who shot and killed William s. Chel-
ton late Saturday night, was exoner-
ated by the verdict of a coroner's jury
which held am inquest yesterday. The
verdict stated that Green's act was
justiliable.
The shooting occurred at Green's
home. and friends of Chelton are re-
ported 70 have said that the acquitted
man had lain in wait for the victim
and slain him without provocation. II
is alleged that Chelton and Green
had experienced a break in friendship
over money matters about three years
ago and that Green had threatened the
man.
Although the verdict Of the coron-
ers jury leaves Green free for the
present, the authorities say they will
collect as much evidence as possible
and will present the case to the next
term of court.
Green's testimony at the inquest
was to the effect that three years ago
after he had heard something about
the victim, he warned Chelton, who
was his former friend, TO keep away
from his house. He went home Sat
urday night, and declared he saw
Chelton enter his yard and look into
the window. When Green went out
into the yard to accost Chelton, he
carried his shotgun with him, and
finding Chelton under the corner OF
the house, shot him.
Green said he refused to give the
man assistance, and kept him on the
ground under the cover of a gun, until
neighbors, who heard the shots, came
to the scene. The wounded man was
brought to the hospital i'm this city
and died shortly after his arrival.
Chelton was AS years of age and
married. He is survived by a widow
and five children. He was formerly
a Deputy Sheriff of Somerset county
