In preparing to leap he lost his hold and
fell neath th- car-, the train passing

COTTON' INSCKANCE
The Increase of Kates by the Tariff As
sociatiou—The Average Clause and it.
Kffeet—What the Factor- are Doing—
A Committee of Investigation.
The recent action of the southeastern
Tariff Association in increasing the rates
of fire insurance on cotton in w arehouses
and on the wharves, and the objection by
the banks to accept as collateral security
insurance policies bearing the objectiona
ble "average clause,” on the ground that
the policy is rendered non-negotiable t*y
such clause, is creating considera
ble excitement in cotton eircles.
For a long time the prevailing rate of
insurance upon cotton in first-class ware
houses was 1.50 per annum. At the
meeting in 1882, of the Southeastern Tariff
Association, comprising nearly all the
insurance companies doing business in
North aijd South Carolina. Georgia.
Florida and Alabama, the rate was in
-reased to 2 per cent.
There was a general dissatisfaction at
this increase, and at the last meeting of
tbe Association, at Asheville. N. C.. in
•July, anew - rating of 1.60 i*er annum w as
ordered, w ith a schedule of deficiencies
in addition to the regular rating. It is
claimed by eotton factors that w ith this
schedule ‘ of deficiencies the av
erage rate. instead of teiug
redu-ed. i-increa and to from 2 ; to 2
ceut. The reason given by the companies
for their action is that they have been
sustaining heavy 10--es from this class of
risk-. In addition to increasing the ac
tual rate of inauranee, they also in
sert in each policy an average clause
which. in case of fire. K - the
effect of equalizing the loss between
the poliev holder and the insurance com
pany. The quantity of eotton in ware
houses varying daily, the companies
claim that they can not insure the actual
amount which is burned in ease of fire
ow ing to this daily variance. The effect
of the average clause, which is given lie
low. is to the assured
to earrv more insurance than i- actu
ally necessary, in order to equalize the
loss sustained In tire. If a factor has
SIOO,OOO worth of cotton stored and has
insurance to the amount of SOo.*WO, and a
fire occurs by which there is a loss of
$5*1.0011. Tb<* insurance companies, instead
Ot paying tue full l*—s of $50,000, propose
to pu\ only no jx-r cent. <*f the loss, or
s4s.ouu.
The text of the clause which is attached
to each policy is a- follows:
—II l- hereby declar, J a;i I agreed Ibut m
ea- ■ tbe property atore-aid in all the trail*!-
mg-, place-or limits inclu*k-l iu this in-ur
-hall, at the breaking out of any fire or
fir*--. le rollectivcly -<f greater value than tin
-am insured, then this emiipany shall pay and
make g -t such a projxjrtion only of the los
or •iarnagi- a- tin- -uni in-ur,-*l -hall ’near to
the whole value of the projerty aforesaid at
the time when such fire **r fires shall first
happen.
•
*gn-ed. that if am -| iti - pan el of good
inetuded in Ute Eerins ol thi- policy, or such
g..xl- in any specified buil-iing or buildings,
place or place-, within ttie limits of this
!: -urance. -hall at the time of any lire
be insured in thi-. or any other office, this
policy -hall not extend to cover the same, ex
cepting otdv as far as re!at- to any exec— of
value beyond llie amount of such specific i:i
-ur.iiice • i in-uratn e. and sliall not Ik liable
for any |..s- uulvm ihe amount of such !■•--
-hall c v-ce-t the amount of su*-h -pei-ilie in
-nranec <*r iiisuran* * -. which -aid execs- only
ii.-. land to be under lias prolee ti,.a of ihi
■ .ui<| -object to iiNMt a- af -anl.
"It being ihe true lflHff and me tiling of
thi- agreement that th - company -hall i :
b:-liable for any !••—. unit— the amount "f
-uch to-- -hall exceed the amount of the
-jK-eiilc insurance or in-uraie and then
only for such exces-, which sui*i excess -it.til
be subject to average as ub ive.
"Other insurance jiermiUe*! without notice
until required."
Tii•• grounds up >u which the bauks ob
ject to advancing upon policies having
this clause will in* readily seen. The
clause requires the assured to carry a
heavier insurance than he would actually
recover in event of tire, and in some in
stances possibly more than the total
worth of the cot’ton.
The bank.theri‘"c**.has no evidence that
the amount of the policy represent- ti.e
amount ot cotton, and will naturally r..
quire a margin upon which to make tin
advance. The effect w ill Ifr about a- fol
lows: A factor has a policy for ss.nuo,
upon which lie wishes to effect
a loan of that amount. The bank will re
quire a margin of perhaps ?g.o*>o or fifi.ooo
to insure a safe loan upon the policy,
which, bearing the average clause, th* y
are nut advised whether it represents the
aetual amount of cotton or more. The
clause thus tends to embarrass tbe factor
iu his business transactions.
Under the Btat* law all insurance com
panies doing business in Georgia are re
quired to make dei*osit& of securities
amounting to $25.000 with the Comptroller
General f*>r the protection of policy
holders. This deposit is of no value t*>
the state, and being a nominal amount i
a -light protection to the insured.
It. however, is claimed to have the el
le* t ol keeping many companies from be
ing renresented in the state, and places
the * obtroi ot Tic business am ng those
companies which are willing to make the
deposit.
Realizing that some action was advisa
ble a meet big of leading cotton
factors in the city was
called, and a committee appointed
to investigate the matter and to
the Legislature a memorial asking for a
repeal of the law requiring the deposit <d
s2S,UK), with the view of inviting other in
surance companies into the State and. cre
ating competition in the business, and
thus tending to secure t*etter rat*-*.
This law also prohibits foreign brokers
from placing insurance upon eotton as well
as other meretianuUe in Georgia, by vir
tue of tbe prohibition that exl-is against
the coming into the State of adjusters to
adjust losses in <-nses of tires, unless the
deposit of $25.u00 is mst made with the
Comptroller General by the companies
they represent.
The repeal of the law, it is believed by
cotton factors, will tend, by inviting com
petitios, m rejjip-e the present high rates
of insurance.
The insurance men will, it is understood,
endeavor to maintain their j*osition. A
meeting of the Board of Underwriters was
held yesterday, when the matter was
brought up for* consideration, but no defi
nite action was taken.

Murder in South Carolina.
An atrocious murder was perpetrated
in Union county, South Carolina, on the
Pith inst. Air. John T. Behn, a farmer
and prominent citizen, went to the house
of Henry Long, a negro tenant, to remon

ing of his fence rails bv members of the
familv. An altercation occurred between
Mr. B*-hn. Henry Long and Jim Charner,
a sto iff youth of li or IS years, during
which Mr. Behn was stabbed to the heart
by Charner and instantly killed. Air.
Behn's son also started to Long’s house,
but before he arrived there he saw his
father advancing toward the door with
Henry Long's hand upon his shoulder,
and the next moment fall headlong out of

THE CO AI- MARKET.
Some Facts Concerning Savannah's
Trade—Where \he Glistening Enel
Comes From—The Outlook for the
Winter.
(Inquiry yesterday by a Morning News
reporter among the leading coal dealers ol
the city developed the information that
the prices during the present season are
considerably inexeessof those oflast year,
owiug. in a great measure, to the exces
sive freights. Last year the average cost
of shipment from the mines was seventy
five cents per ton. This year the average
is |1 23 per ton.
•• What is the cause of this increase in
freight *” was asked of a prominent
dealer.
••Our rates.” he replied, -are regu
lated in a measure by the lumber
trade. Ships bringing coal *tn
this port from the North depend upow
iumler for tbeir back freight. The pres
ent depressed state of the~ lum'oer market
and the limlte 1 exports require less ship
ping facilities, and hence vessels bringing
down eoal with no pros]*ects for a return
cargo, exact a higher freight.”
‘•What is the source of coal supplied to
this market)" was asked.
“Anthracite eoal is chiefly mined and
brought from Pennsylvania. The soft
coal i- brought principally from Mary
land. Occasionally a cargo of anthra
cite is thrown upon tbe market by for
eign steamers, and last year there were
more foreign shipments than usual.”
"Is the supplying of foreign steamer
much of a trade?"
"It is a big item in our trade.” was the
replv. “For the year ending June, 1"2.
our sales were 3,20 tons. For tbe year
ending June. InN}. they w ere 1.200 tons, a
falling off of 2,200 tons.
“What was the cause of this falling
off ?”
“Mainlv. the fact that ships from the
North. European and English ports brought
their own coal in ballast and required no
supply here. -hips, however, from South
ern ports are unable to secure coal in bal
last and a supply is demanded here."
“What is the prospect for the winter
trade?"
•Tt is hardly possible to predict at this
time what it will lx*. We are now deliv
ering anthracite at $7 i*er ton. So far as
we are able t<* judge, we have every rea-
Sv*n to exp -' t a lively trade."
The follow*inn reports from Northern
market indicate a quiet stat*- of coal
trade:
The Philadelphia Ledger aaya:* ‘The
anthracite coal trade is in a sort of wait
ing condition at present, though tlie
activity in sizes for domestic consumption
continues. The large operators having
disposed in advance of the entire output
to September 1 are receiving orders only
subject to delivery after the first of
the coming month, and at such
prices as may rule at that time.
Many of the dealers have already stocked
their vards. and orders are not so numer
ous. There is a healthy feeling in the
trade, and the producers ar.- in a cheer
ful mood, .the prospect being that tbe full
time working will continue until the end
of the year. The total output for thi
year is already nearly 2,000,0u0 tons ahead
dl the same time last" year, and the trade
is comparatively in a more active and
apparently stable condition.”
The MJournal -ays: "The Penn
sylvania t'ual Company ha- taken the ini
tiatni- by advancing, on the 15th, 10 cents
a ton on egg. 2fi cents on stove, and 15 cents
on chestnut for New York and Eastern
markets. Tne other companies will ioliow
between the present and first ot next
month, Notwithstanding the large out
put, there is no increa-e of -took on hand
at tide-water shipping points: on the con
trary. the stock was decreased last month
over ‘JO.tXM tons.”
The Liojiii'-i t tii'i 'Otd Mining Juki-,to!.
speaking of the market in New York,
savs: "The anthracite coal trade here is
still very dull, and there is no improve
ment whatever to report. June purchases
have been tilled, and appear to have pretty
thoroughly loaded up retailers, many of
whom could not lake any more coal even
if they would. The result is that there is
considerable pressure to sell eoal, os|*o
eially as tbe production is large and the
manufacturing interests are very dull.”
O Consistency, Where I* Thy Jewel?
t'Htor M-minn A* "’*; l. with yourself
and other thousands, should truly cherish
an earnest and grateful remembrance of
an evi-r-benign Providence that has thu
far cared for and protected this commu
nity from all serious maladies, and to
openly acknowledge, in purity of heari,
that the God of all has bountifully blessed
His creation. Then, should we not re
sjioud to Hi- w atchful care over us and of
ourselves, to be free from Belt acts lend
ing in any way to theengenderingofdeatb
diseases in our midst ? 1 am induced to
make these remarks from the fact that
cart-loads of impure street dirt and gar
bage are carried off and dumped, no mat
ter Where the location, but always to the
detriment of the health and lives of all
neighlKiriug residents most generally in
the neighborhoods of the'i*oor, the lowly
and defenseless, to snurt nearly a poison*
ous and deadly nemesis! Where are tbe

and is now employed on the Florida South
ern, Itetweeu Lake Weir and Leesburg.
The latter road now runs within four
miles of Nevvnansville.
The Charlotte fAtu-rrer has the follow,
ing: “Rumors in regard to changes in the
management of the Richmond and Dan
ville are rife, and the latest is that at the
meeting of the stockholders on the 12th of
September, there will be made a general
change in the management. AVhatever
the details of the plan'may be, the object
of them will be a closer" connection be
tween the lines of the Richmond and Dan
ville. and tboseof the East Tennessee and
Georgia system which the syndicate is
concerned "in. A glance at the map shows
that the men who control these two sys
tems (the present syndicate is an amal
gamation of the Clyde, Senev and First
National Bank of New York syndicates)
as good as control the railway interest in
the South. Through the Richmond and
Danville the leading parts of the South
ern coast are to Ive reached from the
points touched by the East Tennessee and
Georgia in the interior.”
The Atlanta L'unali'utivn says: “Yes
terday the first train passed over the
( **osa river bridge on the Georgia Pacific.
The bridge is of the most improved pat
ent of iron structure and was built by
the Buffalo Bridge Works. It has Iveen
put up under the supervision of Major-
Temple, the Chief Engineer of the road.
The river is very wide at the point crossed
and the bridge lias three very long spaus.
Col. Foreacre and Major Temple were
present at the passage of the train. The
completion of the bridge leaves compara
tively little to be done toward the com
plete connection of Atlanta and Birming
ham. The tunnel is twelve miles further
and there the work is going ahead finely.
A go-horse power engine is driving the
steam drill and a way is rapidly being
bored through the stone that stands in the
way. From the tunnel to Irondale is
nineteen miles aud there the Georgia
Pacific reaches the Alabama Great South
ern. Much of the track is laid aud the
work complete from the river to Birming
ham. and it seems that nothing can stand
in the way of the connection of Atlanta
aud Birmingham by the coming Novem
ber.”
Twenty-Five Cents Isn't Much.
