the inside details of the attack-the

NEW FIRE INSURANCE RATES.
Entire state Has Been Rerated, With
Exception Of St. Louis.

Jefferson City-The new fire insur-
ance rates. prepared in compliance
with the rating law enacted by the
forty-sixth general assembly, will be
filed with Frank Blake, state superin-
tendent of insurance, the latter part
of November, according to James A.
Waterworth, of st. Louis, rating ex-
pert, who was here on business with
the insurance department
Mr.. Waterworth says the entire
state has been re-rated, except the
city of st. Louis, and that the com
mittee handling the work is now en-
gagged there.
The new rates must be approved by
Superintendent Blake before they be-
come effective. That they will be
somewhat lower when taken as a
whole than the rates now in force, is
the opinion of Waterworth. They will
be higher, he believes, upon some
classes of risks than the old ones.
