No New Fraternal Orders Can be
Organized in Virginia.

Richmond, July 30.-An item that
will be of much interest to insurance
companies throughout the State is
the recent discovery Of an error IN
the engrossing OF the law governing
insurance issued by fraternal orders.
The effect of the new discovery IS
to make it impossible for. any frater-
nal orders to organize in the State
of Virginia for the purpose of en-
gaging in the insurance business.
The error in the case in point was
made by the engrossing clerk of the
last session of the general assembly
cf Virginia, when an act governing
the law by which insurance might be
issued by fraternal orders was pas
sed.
The law in its present form pro-
vides that no fraternal insurance So
ciety shall be allowed to begin bus
mess in the State of Virginia until
it shall have secured insurance. on
at least $50 lives for the sum Of
100000 each. The bill as passed
provided that insurance on each life
should be $1,000 for each life insured,
but the amount enormously appeared
on the engrossed bill raised to $780,
900.
Inasmuch as the bill as it is en-
crossed is the law, the effect of this
provision is to make it impossible for
any fraternal order to get $50 men
to take policies of 100000 each. No
fraternal order was every known to
issue a policy in that amount, and
no man would take out so large a
policy in new institution.
This error in the bill makes the
law for all practical purposes null
and void and prevents any further
organization of fraternal orders in
Virginia.

Crowds that excitedly discussed the

CZAR DEFIES KAISER.
Nicholas Officially Notifies Germany
And Austria of Mobilization.

st. Petersburg, July 30.-Russla to-
day officially notified Germany and
Austria Of the mobilization Of four
teen army corps, numbering 100000
men. The Gar is said to have en-
pressed the intention Of taking the
held as commander-in-chief in event
of hostilities.
This is Russia's answer to the vlr-
tual ultimatvm which came from
the German foreign Office in the un-
official statement that the Kaiser
would order the mobilization of his
forces unless Russia ceased her mla-
,ary activities within twenty-four
hours.
1t is explained in st. Petersburg
that the mobilization of the fourteen
corps ordered by the Car does not
mean war with Germany is necessan-
" inevitable. The troops are to be
massed along the Austrian and not
not the German frontier, it is de-
clarcd. Intervention by Russia might
still be averted, the foreign office sta
led. If Austria would Withdraw
from Serv!an territory and cease all
military preparations diplomatic ne
gotiations with Austria might then
be resumed.
1t was reported here today that
Emperor Franz Joseph had forward
I'd a personal letter to the Gar. 1t
is generally regarded as certain. now
ever, that any efforts of Austria tc
! reopen diplomatic negotiations while
its troops menace Servian territory
will be met with rebuffs.
The foreign office today empha
] sized its stand that the invasion o
Servia would not be countenanced.
That intervention will mean a con
flict with Germany is not admitted
but there is little hope this may b.
avoided if Austria continues her ad
vance upon Servia.
In addition to the mobilization o
1 the fourteen army corps, the Ca
:oday caused the publication of
ukase calling thousands of reservist
10 the colors. These include all res
crvists of twenty-three government
and seventy-one districts in fourtee:
others, retired Cossacks of six terri
tories, naval reserves of siNty-fou
districts, reserve officers Of the hos
pital service, and part of the reserve
of nine districts.
