During the same period in 1917 the
losses reported aggregated s2,43i,eoo'
showing an increase of s376.41l. TINS
increase is more than accounted Tor
by the two very destructive fires Whlch
occurred in the city of Dubuque during

aggregate loss Of $42l,408.
The second annual report Of the state
fire marshal. covering the year 1912, has
but recently come from the press IN
hooklet form and presents some very
interesting reading
During the twelve months from JAN
TO Dec. 81. 1912. the total number OF
hree In the state reached 2.s01. The
value OF the buildings and contents
were s1s,737,o35 the damage to the
buildings and contents S4.942,000 to-
tai insurance on buildings and con-
tents. 31o,sss,f11: excess of loss over
insurance. 31,1252s5 In the case OF
s4s the fires were but partially covered
| nv insurance and 342 carried no insur-
ance at all
During the above twelve months
Scott county had 12S fires. The value
OF buildings and contents were $sS4,230
and the damage to buildings and con-
tents but $3.50 This speaks well
for the efficiency Of the Davenport ire
| department.
That Davenporters believe in fire in
| surance as a protective measure Is
shown in the fact that during all the
fires Of last year the actual loss. OF
in other words, the excess OF loss over
insurance. was but 1887 for the whole
Of Scott county.

 CITY OWNING
NEW GOVERNOR OF ILLINOIS AT INAUGURATION SUooEsTs
 REMEDIES.
Special Nugget Service.

SPRINGFIELD. Feb. 3.-Governor Dunne during his inauguration ad- dress here today recommended that legislation be passed which would provide for cities owning and operat- ing their public utilities.
 He believes the cities of this state including Chicago should build their own lines and systems of all kinds or should buy those already built and that they should operate them for the public good. He seems to think that the municipal ownership policy should be regarded as the chief policy of all the states at the present time.
 From the determination shown h his address and because of the well known inclination in that direction at present it seems most likely that Illi nGis will take leading place in the general adoption of the principles of public ownership.

The occurrence is one of the most daring. The women are of the most respectable kind and the outrageous act of taking them away has stirred the whole city. Travel outside the capital is now considered to be so dangerous that very few people dare to go on journeys of any length.
 The country around is infested with bands of revolutionists and the end of the fighting seems to be further off than ever.
