SITUATION IS UNIQUE.
Insurance of Morgan Art Exhibit
Reveals Unusual Condition,

NEW YORK. May 1O.-A situation al
most without precedent in the insurance
market is reported as a result of ]. p.
Morgan's plan to insure the S5O,O0OOOO
worth Of art objects left by his father.
The SIS 900. 900 that is being taken by
$50 American and foreign insurance COM
panies is the largest amount sought in
many years upon single risk. 1t is SO
large that the brokers in figuring an
average OF 321s cents per S10O found they
were running afoul of laws in many
states restricting companies to 10 per
cent of their capital and surplus on any
one risk. 1t has been necessary to divide
the collection into two risks. one in the
old building of the Metropolitan Museum
and the other in the new building, effect
ing an average rate of 341a cents.
Although no intimation of Mr.. Morgan s
purpose as to the ultimate disposition of
his collections has yet come, it Is pointed
out among insurance men that none of
the policies contains any provision for
protection against loss in transit and that
this would indicate that for a year at
least Mr.. Morgan has no intention Of re-
moving any part Of the collection from
New York.
