MAY COLLECT
FOR FLOOD FIRES
San Francisco Jury Decides In
surance on Burned Build
ings Is Collectible.

Policy holders can collect their insur-
ance " fire. caused by food. tornado,
cyclone or earthquake, destroys their
property, according to a decision Of a
San Francisco jury shortly after the
earthquake In 1906
Glen Miller. president OF tho Home In
vestment & Savings company. was one of
the twelve men appointed TO decide this
question. They deliberated six weeks.
The jury found that insurance compa-
MES could not be held liable for dam
ages to property caused by earthquake e
alone. Should nre cause the ultimate
destruction OF property, the earthquake
being the initial cause OF fire, insuc-
ance companies should be held liable. II
an earthquake causes the collapse OF
property, the debris being consumed by
fire. the insurance company can be held
liable only for the actual value OF the
debris consumed, Mr.. Miller says the
same will apply in cases of food or
storm.
No word has been received from in
surance companies concerned IN confla-
grations caused by the eastern foods
and tornadoes.
