Chard, who since 1866 has been fdentified with Insurance Interests in Chicuro, and since 1870 hoa been a representative ret, as speciil, and then as general agent or munnger, of the Fire- mans Fund Insurance Company, of Sun Fran- cisco, Cal. The growth of this Company's so- eatted Eastern business bus been sv thoroughly identified with the management of Mr. Chord that its name ts Inscparably agsoclated with bis, and tho murked success which hay attended its operations in the Eaet isin no small degree at- tributable fo his superior sitll as a mannger, and tact and populurity as n field worker. In 1870 the Firemans Fund, which was then com- mencing to plant agencies throughout the terri tory enst of tho Hocky Mountalne, bad $500,000 ened capital, $767,10% assets, and n total Income of S480, The yeur following cnine tho grent Chicago fire, in which the Firemans Fund lost E620,504, or inure than {tsentire capitn), and two- thirds of {ts entire nescts, But this large Atnount was paid at once upon the prosenta- tion of proper proofs of loss, doliar for dollur. In consequence of soextraordipary udrain upon the Company, tho capital wos then reduced to $30,000 and pald up in futl asa new basis, Starting afresh upon this new capital with its splendid Chicago record, and Mr. Chard in the field nga especial ngent, the Company's progress was rapid, agencies were multiplied, and 1 success- ful business cstablished. Four yenra aftor tho flre, 1878, the assets of the Company reached $741,113, and the income £051,003, tho capital re- mnalning $360,0u0t, The assets, It will be uuticed, had alinvst reached the ante-tre feures, while the income fad increased about 60 per cent. In that syenr Mr.Churd was nade manger of the entire fleld cast of tho mountnins, and the Kast- ern department was placed in his hands. Deapite the general shrinkage in business, and the ex- tremely unfavorable condition of insurance since 1876, January, 1880, found the assets of the Company 87 und the income $520,114. and the July assets £767,507, and net surplus $162,430, Aprit Just the Directors voted to increase the capital to §760,000, which has been done, making the present nasets over $2,200.K0, This brings the Company tuto the front rink asto cnpltal and assets, and ndds to its alreudy well Ashed representation awa frst-vliss cor Certalnly the record of tho Firemans Fund is one which reflects the highest credit upon those In charge of ita affulrs. The record of the Union Insurance Company is not leas favorable thun that of the Firemans Fund. Itis one of Catifornta’s best companies. Like tho Firemans Fund, the Union was in Chi- cago and the Enstern field (uy 1870, ut whieh time- also Mr, Chard represented the Coimpuny ns speclal agent. In the great fre of Ist] the Unton lost $647,112, which amount was promptly: pufd ng fast as adjusted, The Company then had €760,000 capital, and $1,110,097 nssety, After the fire tho Company withdrew {ts ngencles from the East aud confined its business chiefly to Cullfornia.* On Jan, 1, 1880, we tind the condi tion of the Company to be: Cupital, $760,000; assets, $095,160; und not surplus, £160,308. By comparison it will be noticed that the flnanclal strength of the two compunies fs bout the same. In view of Mr. Churd’s foriner conuece tion with tho Union,.and bia exceptionally tine reoord with the Firemans Fund, ft is very natural that the Union, in coming back toto this field, should ptuce Its general agency, or man- agement, In his bands, Both tho Union and Mr. Churd ure to be congratulated upon the rela- ons thus established, and we doubt not but that results will be entirely sattefactory to both, It is Mr. Chard's intention to extend the busi- ness of tho Unionover the sumo territory and about in the sume manner as that of the Fires mang Fund. This is now one of the strongest general agencies in the teld, and oncof the best. —The Spectator (New York). “Hair Rovivum" restores gray halr to its orl; Saal color for BU cents. : BUSINESS NOTICES.
