HATTIESBRG MISSISSIPPI WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON MAY 1912

Jackson, Miss, May S.-A radical /
advance in fire insurance rates in the
state, suggested by the Mississippi In
spection and Advisory Rating Bureau,
has created a decided stir in business
and insurance circles.
The heaviest advance suggested
and usually the Suggestion from the
bureau is equivalent to an instruc-
tion--is applicable to dwellings, and
amounts to one dollar per thousand on
dwellings occupied by owners, and
$3.50 per thousand on dwellings occu-
pied by tenants. The basis rate ad-
vance is from IS cents to $1,10.
Thus far underwriters in Jackson
have not put the rate advance into
effect, and some of them frankly de-
clare that they do not intend to do so,
regarding it as exorbitant. 1t remains
to be seen whether the companies they
represent will stand by them in this
decision.
An added charge for non-standart
flues CT $3.50 per thousand is ordered
and an additional charge of 81 pc
thousand for additional fues, not eX
ceeding three in number.
