INSURANCE KEY
RATE LOWERED
REDUCTION FROM 13 TO IS CTS. AU
THORIZED AT BROWNSVILLE By
STATE INSURANCE COMMISSION
DATES FROM AUG 1.
FIRE INSURANCE AGENT w. X.
MENDENIIALL SECURES REDUC-
TION. ON SHOWING OF IMPROVE
MENTS IN CITY.

Owing to the fact that Brownsville
has comp led with a number of the con
ditions of the State Insurance commits
sion, which were formerly lacking in the
city, the insurance key rate has been re,
duccd by the commission from the for
mcr basis of 73 cents to 5S cts.
The state Insurance Commission has
notified W. X. Mendenhall the well
known local Insurance agent through
whose efforts largely the reduction was
secured. that the reduction had been
made and dated from the First of Aug
uSt Of this year. Unier the ruling of the
commission al those who have secured
Fire Insurance policies since the first Of
August will be entitled to the reduction.
The adviceS received by Mr. Mend2n-
hall state that a reduction of fifteen
cents has been made Oh mercantile risks.
a reduction on specia' hazards Of seven
cents and on special classes of seven
cents
The above reductions apply oniy to
those risks receiving credit for public
fire protection and do not apply to dwell
lingS over 1000 feet from a public fire
hydrant or to any other classes over 500
feet from public fire hydrant
When the FIRST KEY rate was made
Brownsville had no adequate fire depart
mcnt to successfully protect the city. The
fact that the principal streets have been
paved since the former rate was made,
also aided in securing the reduction.
Upon the making Of some improve
mcnts in the building Of the water and
light p ant it is hoped TO secure a fur
ther reduction Of about twenty cents. t.
Fl. Williams. superintendent of the wat
er and light department. has informed
Mr.. Mendenhall that the necessary i'm
provements will be made a,t
