Makes Rapid Gains.

Four weeks ago the report of
the Southwest Louisiana Develop
ment Bureau showed a member
ship subscription of S1211, of
which Lafayette Parish had sub
scribed over one fourth, S313. To
day the membership has doubled,
and two parishes St. Mary and
iberia, are leading Lafayette by so
a large margin that the Lafayette
directors are putting OIL strenu-
Gus membership campaign in the
hope of regainiug their leadership.
Iberia Parish shows the biggest
gain i'll both percentage and actual
amount, since the last report,
going from $50 to SAL. ST. Mary
shows the next largest actual gain
from $3.50 to S49O, but ST. Martin
leads i'll percentage going from
$40 to S191. St. Landry has tripled
her interest from $50 to SI6O and
Acadia has doubled her member
ship from $50 to $40 without any
specsal help from this office.
The standing of the parishes to
date is St. Mary $500; Iberia SAL;
Lafayette 1888; St. Martin s1o1;
Acadia $40; Calcasieu SOL; St.
Landry $500; Jefferson Davis S151;
Vermilion s51; Cameron $40; Evan
geline $50; Allen SO; and Beaure-
gard $40.
Reports from the three Saints
and from Acadia and iberia are
that they will maintain their posi-
tions, while Nermilion is putting
on an active campaign to catch up.
The new manager, Mr.. w. c.

lmmergluck Files Papers Charging
Combination of Insurance Men

The following is taken from the
Times-Democrat of last Sunday,
under a Baton Rouge date: A
conspiracy between Abbeville in
surance agents and H. d. Richard
son & Co. of New Orleans. through
the Fire Prevention Bureau, to
deprive him of competitive rates,
is charged by J. Immergluck, a
grocer of Abbeville, in letter re-
ceived by Secretary of State
Hebert. As a result of the conf
plant the Secretary of State has
begun all investigation. The
charge of Immergluck> implies
violations of Act No. PA of 1912,
known as the anticompact law or
combination to control fire in
surance rates i'll Louisiana, and
perjury.
The perjury charge arises from
the fact that under the assurances
laws of the State agents are requir-
ed annually. when licenses are
issued, to sweat they will conform
to this act.
All persons mentioned in the
complaint will be propounded
questions bearing upon the Secre-
tary of State. The specific charge
of Immergluck is as follows:
Jan. IS, 1918, l asked H. D.
Richardson & Co., general agent,
Abbeville progress. (Abbeville, Vermilion Parish, La.) 1913-1944, 1913-12-27

New Orleans, for rates. IN reply,
dated New Orleans, Jan. IS, 1913,
Richardson said he would be
pleased to accept my insurance at
the rate of S1.35 against rate
81. SIS as quoted by local agents. g.
which rate l was ready to accept.
It seems that the rate of S1.55
quoted by Richardson leaked out.
The local agents got hold of it.,
and they Immediately reported it
to the Fire Prevention Bureau.
As a result Mr.. Richardson was
compelled to withdraw his offer,
and 1 was forced to pay the higher
rate as dictated by the bureau"
The letter opened with a charge
that existence of an insurance
combine to fix rates arbitrarily is a
matter OF general public knowledge.
Secretary of State Hebert issued
the following statement:
l have been constantly hearing
complaints that insurance COM
panies doing business in this State
are arbitrarily fixing rates. l
have before me specific charge
and shall ferret it to the bottom,
Mr.. Immergluck will be called
Upon to prove his written state
nents. The case will be prosecut-
ed vigorously by me if the result
of Our investigation justifes it. d"

SHAKE-UP OF THE PIRATES.
Three Members of Team Slated for
Trade Deals.

PITTSBURGH, Pa. December Fired
Clarke. manager of the Pirates. will be in
Pittsburgh next Monday to accompany
President Barney Dreyfuss of the Pitts
burgh base ball club to New York to at
tend the annual meeting OF the National
League. A letter was received from the
Corsair chieftain from his home in VIM
field. Kan, stating that he would be in
Chicago next Sunday and arrive in Pitts
burgh the following morning.
The more important feature of Clarkes
visit will be the announced intention of
the Pirate management to swing some
deals with the other clubs when the mag
mates assemble in New York There are
some woefully weak spots in the Pirate
lineup. and it is probable that Clarke and
Dreyfuss will attempt to bolster up the
roster with cash and players One of the
points where it is certain a change will
be made is at third base. Cozy Dolan is
to be traded.
The places occupied last year by Mike
Mitchell and Chief Wilson will be filled
by other players, and Clarke has said
that he is in search of shortstop to help
out Honus Wagner. Clarke has some
good trading material, and there is strong
proba biiity that this eastern trip will be
one of the most important ever made by
the owner and field general of the Pitts
burgh team.
