A Commission Merchant Charged with Embezzlement. An interesting case was brought before Justice Brown yesterday, involving promi- nent persons. It appeared that Gen. Rufus Ingalls, Chief Quartermaster of the Military Division of the Military Division of the Mis- souri, had caused a warrant to be issued for the arrest of J. F. Sherwin, of the grain com- mission firm of J.F. Sherwin & Co, the Company being James Sherwin. Constable Grant, in whose hands the warrant was placed, sought Mr. Sherwin Friday night at his marble-front residence, No. 687 ‘West Adams street, but he did not appear in sight unti! yesterday morning, when the war- Tant was served on him. The complaint and information alleges that on the 2th day of November J. F. Sherwin, claiming to do business as acommission merchant in Chi- cago, under the name and style of J. F. Sher- win & Co., converted to his own use the pro- ceeds of grain sold on commission for the affant by J.F. Sherwin & Co., without the consent of the affiant, who is the owner who had demanded the same. J. F. Sherwin has failed to pay over to the a the avails of grain sold ¢ on commis- Mr. Sherwin appeared before Justice Brown, and a continuance was granted at his request until the 30th inst. Bail of $500 ‘was given to insure his appearance, Simon Schoeneman signing the bond. Gen, Ingalls, it seems, gave the defendant $700 about a month or more ago to invest in wheat on the Board ef Trade under posi- tive orders. No margins were re- turned to him, and | he drew from the amount of money deposited with Sherwin & Co. fea ane alters rendered 2 statement about a week ago, p! 3465 the credit of Gen. Ingalls, and that gentle- man called for its return to him. Sherwin & Co. failed to produce the money, and, after making another demand for it and not. get- Hing it the matter was placed in the hands of Eldridge & Tourtelotte, attorneys, who insti- tuted legal proceedings as above mentioned. SONG OF THE WOODCHOPPER, For The Chicago Tribune. LE Out in the bleak, cold woods he stands, Swinging his ax with sturdy hands: Sharply the bluc-jays near him call; ‘Sofffy the snow-tiakes round him fall: Gayly he sings, As hisax he swings, “What care J for the ice or snow? Here away, there away, down you gol” iM. ‘ Loudly the winds through the tree-tops sigh; Far the chips from his keen ax fly; Trembling, the tree-tups, gray and brown, Totter, sway, and come tumbling down: Gayly he sings. As bis ax he swings, “What care I for the ice or snow? Here away, there away, down you gol” iL “There's time for work, and time to sleep; There's time to laugh, and time to weep; ‘The chips must fly, the trees must fall, ‘To feed the tire that warms us all”: Gayly be sings, As his ax he swings, “What care I for the ice or s30w? Here away, there away, down you go!” Evoerse J. Hann MILLARD AVENUE Sratios, Chicago. ——— . _ Stelta. New York Herald. Loxnon, Nov. 24. tella Anna Lewis, known ‘to the literary world under the num de plume of “Stella.” widow of Sydney B. Lewis, of Brook- dyn, and an intimate friend of Edgar Allan Poe, ‘was found dead in ber bed this morning at ber house in Bedford pluce. ‘The cause of ber death is supposed to be neuralgia. Une of her latest efforts was a series of sonnets to Poe, detending his ‘name from detractors. Her tragedy, “Sappho,” which is in its seventh edition, bas just been trunslated into modern Greek and performed at Athens. 1 “Stella was the only daughter of Sr. R. del Monté, a rich Marsland planter, and on one side she claimed descent trom u noble tamily of Na- varre and on the other from the Butlers. of Wy- gming. She was brought up at the Troy Femiile Seminary, and astonished ber teachers by con- tibuting poems to the local Journals and trans- lating the “Eneid” into English verse. Sbe was still n child when she wrote “The Forsaken.” which Poe dectared to be one of the most beautiful ballads of the kind ever written, and sbe had scarcely grown to womanhood when she published Records of the Heart.” which had an immense vogue. She was now a terary personage. The grave Lamartine came down from the pedestal of fameon which French criticshad placed him. criticised her poems in the friendliest spirit, and called her, with pleas- ant exaggeration, the * Female Petraren.” Ed- gar Allan Poe raved about her. “No woman has bad her genius.” said be, “since the poctess of Lesbos." Napoleon 111, who always hud a weak- ness for letters, received her with favor at the Tuileries. Dumas, the elder. revised her manu- scripts; George Sand invited her to Morbihan; Rosa Bonbeur paiuted her portrait; Ristori, the actress, incited her to dramatic composition. In quiet nooksof Florence and Rome, wandering by the Arzoor lingering in the Coliseum, she made the scheme of her tragedy, “Helemar,” which was pubhshed when she returned to America in the last yearsof the War. Its suc- cessled her to write “Sappho,” which was and remains her masterpiece. She had been writ! pigpant letters on society; she had critici: ks and pictures: she had filled the serial press with love-stories, and baving thus, like Aurora Leizh, “written much for others’ use,” bbe sat down to write for herself, and the result ‘was “Sappho.” It was not Sbakspearean, but it seuinded a critics of Tarourds “Ion” and other stan tragedies, and it was gen ‘voted a very respectable work indeed.) — + Wanted to Suit His Tastes. ‘The widow of a French chemist famous for his_ researches in toxicology wus on trial for Poisoning her husband.

The Forthcoming Concerts by the Apollo Club. Successful Soiree by the Musical College Pupils. Boston Ideal Company, Corinne Op- era Troupe, and Soldene en Reute Here. Recent Musical Doings at Hershey Hall. A German Criticism of Adaline Patti’s Prices. Debut of the Ambre Opera Troupe in New Orleans. The Apollo Ciud’s sale of season tickots is an- nounced to close on next Tuesday night, after which time those who have not selected their seats will be prevented by the period of Ifmita- tion from securing the privileges accorded asso- ciate members. Tho list of procrastinators is always large, and undoubtedly it will this year be as it was last, that a great many will be crowded out from enjoying these concerts be- cause they neglected to secure their seats. Tho Program which the Club have outlined will give to the associate members more for the money invested than can-be'obtained from any musical entertainments yet projected for the ensuing season, the inaugural concert itself,on a week from Monday night, presenting the features of a festival concert. At this concert the chorus of 160 voices will be supplemented by a full or- chestra, and Mr. Eddy will preside at the organ, while to properly interpret the works to be presented the soloists engared to appear include Mies Fanny Kellogg, the most ef- ective oratorio soprano iu the country; Charles Nitsch, the well-known tenor; and Myron W. Whitney, whose name is a synonym for a perfect oratorio performance. ‘The inaugural concert will present the sub- seribers with the two popular and pleasing por- traits of Haydn’s “Seasons ""—" Spring” and “Summer,"—and the most melodious and charming composi tion which the Club has ever given {ts subscribers, Handel's “ Acis and Galatea,” in which Whitney's great song, ‘‘ Rud- dier thana Cherry,” occurs. Taking advan- tage of Whitney's engagement, the management of the Club have arranged to give one of the extra performances on Tuesday night, which sretobeafcature of the present season. The attraction at this exfra concert will be the first performance in America of Rubinstoin's “* Tower of Babel,” which was announced forthe Cincinnati Festival, but wus not heard. Damrosch has announced it as the feature of his New York season, and as to be its “first performance in America,” but the work will be heard in Chicago before New York, thanks to the enterprise of the Apollos. The composition is of the operatic type, being described by .Rubinstein as a “sacred opera.” Its principal solo part is assigned to Nimrod, the bass, and Mr. Whitney has expressed himeclf as convinced that he will make one of the greatest hits of his carcerin the interpretation of the réle. The dramatis persone aro Nimrod (bass); Abraham (tenor); Mastor Workman (baritone); four angels, Nim- rod’s followers, choir of angels, people, demons. The music assigned to the several parts is de- scriptive and intensely dramatic, and the per- formance of the work is likely to produce a sen- sation. THE MUSICAL COLLEGE SOIREE. ‘The Chicago Musical College gave a very fine musical entertainment at Kimball's music rooms on Friday evening, which was largely attended by musical people and the friends of the partict- pants. The program was pleasing and varied, displaying the usual skill of Dr. F. Ziegfeld in such matters. Miss Hattie Hitchcock, who on several occasions bas been heard to excellent advantage, again pleased all present by her per- formance of Schubert's sonata, op. 53, and the Chopin ballad, op. 47. Mrs. L. B. Smith sang the “OQ Mio Fernando” very nicely. Tho perform- ance of the Fesca trio for piano, violin, and ‘cello was in many respects the gem of tho evening, as it allowed that painstaking tittle player, Miss Zula Goodman, an opportu- mity to appear in concerted work. Being such abie layers as assisted by two Messrs. Heimendahl and Liesegang, sha naturally was disposed to do her best. She played ber part correctly ‘and with fine musical expression, 8o-that n0 disparity was noticenble between her Play ing and that of the two pro- fessionals who aid her. Miss Mollic Pring ville, who gives promise of becoming an excel- lent reader, read Davis’ Kathelven Bau Adair” ina commendable way. Miss Clara David made a good impression with her singing of the romanza from “ Mignon.” That admirable vio- Nuist, Mr. Edouard Heimendahl, rarely appeared. to better advantage than on this occasion, play- ing Wieniawski's “Russian Airs” with all his ac- customed artand finish. This gentleman im- proves in favor with cach successive appear ance. The soirée closed with the performance of four numbers of Volkman’s * Visegrad.” by Miss Blanche Sargeant and Dr. F. Ziegfeld. Pupil and teacher played ina manner leaving little to be desired. Their performance was artistic and heartily applauded. CHAMBER CONCERTS.

The mat— inées are a regular feature of the school curricu- lum, occurring every two weeks, and are open to the pupils and their friends. The Saturday noon concerts at Hershoy Mu- sic-Hall, which for several years buve beon a prominent feature in local musical events, are again under way for the season. They consist this year of chamber concerts, organ and piano- forte recitals, alternating with each other, and promise to be more interesting than ever, pre- senting as they do 2 wide fleld of musical ilter- ature performed by artists of extchsive repu- tation. it cannot de sald that Chicngo is lecking in opportunities for hearing good music wel given with these and other concerts of similar character constantly offered. Yosterday Mr. Frederick Boscovitz gave an attractive piano- forte recital as the fourth of the noon series to which Mrs. R. Anderson contributed some vocal numbers. NextSaturday Mr. H. Clarence will give an organ recital, fur which a program of great excellence has been prepared. The orchestral concert at Brand’e Hall on Sunday afternoon last by the Liesegang or- chestra was characterized by a program of un- usual interest, the notable features being the Chopin F minor concerto, op. 21, for plano and orehestra, with Emil Liebling atthe plano. In view of this departure from the ordinary Sun- day afternoon program, the audience attracted was composed largely of the musical profession and amateurs of the city to listen to one of the most poetical creations for the piano in _the répertoire of piano literature. Mr. Liesegang bas never appeared to better ad- vantage, playing exch movement and cudenza with 2 delicacy of touch and feeling that elicited the plaudits of all musicians present. The en- tire work was executed ina musicianly and mas- terly manuer. The accompaniment by the or- chestra was very well done, yet a few rehearsals would have added to the tintsh.of the work. In such a departure from the usual Sunday pro- gram Mr. Liesegahg deserves great credit, and we commend his efforts to the patronage of our musical public. ADALINE PATTI IN BERLIN. Adaline Patti sangonly at her last appearance at Berlin on three evenings, atthe exorbitant price of $2,250 perevenimg. Berlin papers stato that the enthusiasin with which sho was re- ceived did not equal that displayed by the music- loving people on former occasions. To this frank and sober statement tho Frankfurt (on- the-Main) Journal adds the following well-timed remarks: ** This change cannot be attributed to any decline in Patti's vocal powers; there is uone perceptible. The cool and quiet judgment that our first talents nre paid too exorbitant prices, which even musical enthusiasts refuse to pay (in proportion for their tickets of admis- sion), is gaining ground everywhere. Tho differ- ence in the performances of a Patti, a Lucca, and a Gerster, asfaras action and voice are concerned, as compared with the average per- formances at our better operu-bouses, is not so great as to justify by any means that fearful expense which is levied upon every music-lov- ing person who desires to sce our greatest works Retformed by our greatest prima donnas. ‘he fee of admission to our better’ operatic en- tertainments is six times less than the sum paid for having the privilego of listening to Patti, Gerster, or Luccu, and the performance at the former, as faras the tote ensemble is concerned, is by far better and more preferable. Whena Patti receives fora single appearance in ‘one of the five or six pieces of which ber répertvire now consists the enormous sum of 6,000 marks for one evening's performance, then thisfis an abnormity which must soon affect the roots of the very existence of all our theatrical! institu- tions. e culture of art becomes a sport; such prices paid for such entertainments do not denote any longer a love for the beauties of art, but simply a matter of rivairy between the beat posxidentes who cun pay the highest prices for such extravagaunces. If a family of six from the middle classes hear Patti one evening, their visit will necessarily be followed by five empty seats ror tive evenings at the other thea- tres which otherwise would be occupied by that family. Four-tifths at least of these colossal extra charges for admission are paid to the star artist, This money fs lost to the city wnere she earned it; she spends it somewhere else. The same amount of money once appropriated for the extension and development of the réper- toire of the theatre would cause the permanent engagement of good talent at better saluries, for which they could offer the public better per- formances. Star playing at such exorbitant rates, exacted trom the public, is a robbery, and all true friends of the theatre who esteem art Bigher than a mere musical performance will hail a reaction against this abnormity with pleasure and delight.” THE AMBRE TROUPE. The New Orleans papers are in raptures over the performances of the new Ambre troupe in that city, and are devoting columns to them. They opened an the &th fu “Robert Le Diable.”” and, as they will appear here before the season | is over, the following sketch of the leading art- ists from the Democrat of that city will be of interest: é “ The choruses are admirably well trained, and their ensemble all the way through was very good. Itis raze that ata first performance new choruses should act with so much careful uni- fonle, It speaks well for the instructor and lender. “Miss La Blache, the soprano or ‘chanteuse Jegere,’ wns overcome with nervousness upon. this her début on the musical stage, and at first could not master self-possession enough to show the qualities of ber voice. Her heart was in her throat and stopped its sweetest notes. This was, to acertuin extent, a charm, coming from one so youn and before whom so much of the future lies. She warmed up, however, to- ward the end and sung the ‘Air de Grace’ with voice and some dramatic talent. She is certainly intelligent and hasa warm and sympa- thetic voice. “Miss Delprato, the falcon, sang the role of Alice like a practiced singer. She is evidently a conscientious artist, well up in her part, and has an excellent diction. In the scene with Ber- tram at the foot of the cross she gave some fine notes. “Tournie, the tenor, in the rile of Robert is magnificent as an actor, and appears ut this hur- ried writing’ and tirst audition faultless ys a singer. His * des cheveliers de ma patrie,’ given with all the case imaginable, was a grand dis- play of power and art. His voice is soft as vel- vet, deep, well-modulated, ample, and full at times of that exquisit morbidity which knows so directly the way to the heart. Jourdain, the basso, makes a fine Bertram. His voice is noticeably high, and without fur- ther inquiry we might class him rathor as a * basso cantato,’ thought it must be said that he has splendid notes in the lowest register. His talent, which ig much ‘rbove the ordinary, has the charm of sympathy to color it and art to give itexpression. His parasing is very goed, and if he appeared to lack somewhat at times in dramatic qualities, particularly in the begin- ning, this must be attributed, no doubt, to his evident nervousness in the presence of a new public, among whom, however, we doubt not, he will make many friends and admirers. “The Nght tenor, Mr. Escalat, has a good Folegiand. sings well He makes a good Raim- MISS BEEBE’S FAREWELL. ‘The Boston Herald of the 21st says: “ The Bos- ton duseum was filled to its utinost capacity last evening, and the lurge attendance was a de- served compliment to Miss E. A. Ober, the ener- getic manageress of tho Loston Ideal Opera Company, who was the beneficiary, and to the popularity of Miss Mary Beebe, who took her farewell of the stage upon this occasion. Miss Ober was the first to conceive the idea of bring- ing together the noted artists who have mada the fume of the Boston Ideal Company known, ail over the country, and the benefit pe:form- ance last evening ‘was tendered by the entire company as a recognition of her exertions in Uc- half of its members. Suppe's “ Fatinitza” was piitorned ag the evening's attraction, with Miss ‘eebe in her original r6le_of the Princcss, and Messrs. Tom Kari and W. H. Fessenden each p- peared in portions of the opera as the war cor- respondont, Julian Hardy. The cast was other- wise the same ns upon former presentations here by this company. Miss Becbe was the re- cipient of a hearty greeting upon her entrance, and was generously applauded after each of her numbers, many exquisit Horal tributes being presented her by adtuiring friends.” MUSICAL NOTES. Mr. M. Arbuckle bas been presented with a solid silver and gold cornet by his New York City friends during the past week. Mr, W. H. Hamiiton, the basso of “ Pinafore” and “Fatinitza” companies of the past, has dolued the San Francisco Minstrels of New Yorke ity. The “Boston Lyceum opera company" has been formed, with Miss Hattio.A. Snell. Mrs. Leon Keach, Mr. W. U. Clark, and Mr. Ed Pay- s0u as its principals. 3M. Mussenct is engared upon au opera in four acts, “Werther,” which {s destined for the Opéra Comique, and which it Is expected will be produced in the winter of 1881-'82.

Lamarque and Boucherat ure writing an operetta in three acts,—~Les Fenimes d’Offen- bach.’—in which the principal feminine types of Offenbach will appear and sing couplets, the music of which will be borrowed from Offen- bach's works. Longfeliow's beautiful poem “The Masque of Pandora” will be produced as a grand spectaeus lar opera at the Boston Theatre Jan. 10, by the Bianche Roosevelt opera company. ‘Alfred Cellier, the favorit English composer, has writ ten the music, and’a rich stage setting of the opera is promised. Mr. Augustin Daly has bought the richt to “ Nisida,” the latest opera of Genée, the com- poser of the * Royal Middy.” _ It will be brought Outathis theatre early in January, aud Mr, Daly will introduce therein his newly-arrived troupe of Nautch girls and Hindu dancers and jluggiers. “ Nisida"™ hada brilliant success in fenna on its production. Tho New York Afusical Review of the lith says: “We sball have this winter not only much music, but some very good music. Mr. Theodore Thomas, we are told by himself, will bring forward his Brooklyn chorus for the first time at the Philharmonic concert of that city, when Hilndel's “St. Cecilia” and Beethoven's “Ruins of Athens " (two choral works) will be given. Later on he will give Buch's Cantata, rescored by himself, and several unpublished compositions from old masters, from whose manuscripts Mr. Thomas obtained copies in his lngt European trip.

A NEW SMELTING FURNACE. Petroleum Used to Melt Orcs, Popular Science Monthly for December. The utilization of petroleum for fuel in the various metallurgical operations, in steam generating, and generally where coal is in- dustrially used, has been a favorit project with inventors fora dozen years or more. The advantages of such a fuel are very great, and the reward to the successful inventor of an apparatus that would make its use prac- ticable would be correspondingly large. Like gas, aliquid fuel is under perfect contro}, and is in 9 form allowing of perfect combus- tion if properly burned. The fuel is, more- over, very abundant, the production having been for some time .past in considerable ex- cess or the demand. In one district alone something like 6,000 barrels are daily running to waste through lack of storage capacity, and one of the largest producers of oil is now obtaining from the wells about 15,000 barrels per day more than can be marketed. The oll companies, as well as inventors who have hoped to make a fortune by a suc- cessful furnace, have been unceasing in their effortsto turn this fuel to industrial uses, but so far the devices—and they have been many—have uniformly failed. «A furnace is, however, now being developed which seems to promise, if not a complete solution, at Jeast a partial solution of the problem. The furnace consists, in reality, in an immense blowpipe flame, which is made to play upon the ore to be smelted, when used for metal- Jurgical purposes, and to pass throush boiler- tubes when used for steam-generating. In the metallurgi-al apparatus there is first a fuel-furnace in which any ordinary fuel may be used, or oilif preferred. Against the upper portion of the flame from this furnace a blast of air is projected, similarto that from the mouth biowpipe against the flaine of a spirit-lamp. Into this blast, at the point where it strikes the fuel-furnace flame, a stream of oil is introduced. The on-going blast and the heat of the flame vaporize the oil, which is then ina condition to be cum- pletely consumed. The result of this arrange- ment is the production of a column of flaine, some thirty or forty feet long, of high temperature. This tlame is projected hori- zontally through an iron cylindrical shell, -lined with fire-brick with a facing of graph- ite, into which the ore to be reduced is fed from a hopper at the farther end. The shell is slowly rotated, so that the entering ore, tumbling about, is brought into intimate contact with the flame. It is also slightly inclined, that the material may slowly feed into the flame, andthe melted material run down into the crucible at the lower end, where it is tapped, and the slag run off in the usual way. e farther end of the revolv- Ing cylinder is let into a chamber built of brick, stone, or clay, which is divided into compartments by walls or sheets of incom- bustible inaterial kept constantly wet by running water, The hot gasus, carrying vapors of the metals and other ingredients of the ore, are here gradually cooled down and condensed, the character of the condensation depending upon the materials present in the ore. The burned gases are withdrawn from the condensing chamber by means of an exhaust-fan, and discharged into the atmos- phere. The air and oil are both under per- feet control, so that a heat suitable for smelt- ing or for vaporizing can be produced at will. Several furnaces are shortly to be put_into operation for the reduction of ores of the precious metals, on which experiments have so far chiefly been made. The inventor, however, expects to be able to use it suc- cessfully in taking iron and steel, as well as in burning lime. A modified form is also suitable to the burning of pottery and glass- making. In using it for generating steam, the boiler-flue is made large. the flame at no point coming in contact with the metal, thus avoiding the burning out of the boiler, the chief ditliculty encountered by most of the other devices using oil-fuel for steam-mak- ing. ‘The experiments with the furnace upon an industrial scale have been as yet too few and imperfect to thoroughly test its val- ue, but they seem to warrant the opinion that the furnace has capabilities that promise very well for its future usefulness. ——— COW-BELLS. For The Chicago Tribune, Away in the distant mendow, Just over the sunset hill, Down where violets blossom, So fragrant and so still, ‘The busy cows are grazing. Nipping tho tender grass, While a sound of rustic music Leaps forth from bells of brass: Golink, colink, colink, cothud— Eating, drinking, and chewing cud; Keeping it up the livelong day— ‘This ts what the cow-bells say. Down beside the babbling brooklet, On its banks with moss o’ergrown, Tn the golden hue of sunset, Hear tho cow-bells coming home; Raiding through the dusky barnyard, Round the old familiar well, In the corn-fields, in the orchard, Everywhere we hear that bell: Colink, colink, colink, colink- Plenty to eat, plenty to drink: Keeping it up the liveloug day—- ‘This ie what the cow-bells say. There are sweotly-chiming chureh-be « Sacred in their mellow tone; There ure vesper-bells at cvening, ‘Telling of a day that’s town. There are brazen bel!s at midnight, Ringing out a wild alarm; But the bells we loved in childhood Are the cow-bells on the farm: Colink, colink, Oft in lite we hear them clini; Deep in our heart they ring to day, Chasing sorrow and care away. Strange we cherish the homely thing, Battered, bent. dingy, and worn— Only 2 cow-bell hung by a string, And rang in the early morn— Rang at evening time again— Tang a8 we crept to the old fireside— Rang when our henrs were full of pain For our little Maud that died; Colink, colink, colink, colink: Allalong the river brink, Over the hillside, down the lane Echo cow-betls again again. We have drifted from our childhood— We have wandered far away; ‘We have chased a lurid fantom ‘Till our locks are turning eray, Out upon Life's troubled ocean, Tossed amid the waves and foam; We still near a wild commotion— The old cow-bells coming home— Colink, colink, colink, colink: Only in memory we hear them clink— Only in fancy wander again To the sound of their glad refrain.

Doubtful Experience of the Year 1880. Dissatisfied Stockholders — The Liquidation Profits. Foreigners Who Have Not, and Who Have Come. A Small Row in the Queen Office—A Mutual Scheme Nipped. Undercutting Rates in New York and Brooklyn. Spectal Correspondence of The Chicago Tridune, New York, Nov. %.—As the year draws toward its close itis apparent that the results of the twelve months as to profit and loss are largely dependent upon the experiences of the coming thirty days. With the cold weather and the building of enormous fires for heating stures, dwellings, and manufact- uring establishments, there is always a heavy increase in fire losses, and it is now the most potent factor in the problem whether or not the next mgnth will produce only anaverageor an abnormal amount of such losses. If De- cember may bravely hold its own, that is, that receipts may equal expenditures, then the year as a whole will prove a fortunate onecompared to the two preceding years. Upon the final outcome of this year depends the future of the fire-insurance business of this country far beyond the belief or understanding of those who are not familiar with its inner workings. ‘The fact is, that the stockholders who have heretofore pinned their faith upon the smuller companies are beginning to partake of the general demoralization which has pervaded the business for several years, and their dissat- isfation will be increased or diminished by the experience of the present year. INSURANCE STOCKS AT A DISCOUNT. The immediate cause of the discontent of stockholders may be found in a comparison of the prices of insurance stocks four years ago and the present time. There has been as arule a steady downward tendency, relieved only here and there by an advance in some favorit. These stocks have been an accept- able collateral in the banks of this city until lately. Now. they are refused utterly by a majority of the banks, and even those who recelve them at all do so on terms which are suggestive of distrust. There are many bank Directors who are also Directors in prom- inent insurance companies. There is oue National bank whose Directors are all, with asingle exception, Directors in an insurance company. Its stock is quoted above par, and its book value over 150. Yet this bank declines to receive the insurance stock as collateral on any terms. To rob guch stocks of their value as bunk collaterals is to destroy.them 2s _invest- ments in the minds of many holders, and hence there isan inclination to sell. It has come to pass that it pays stockholders better to wind up # company, having even a moderate surplus, than to persevere in the unequal struggle for business. There is a very general feeling that the stockhoiders‘of companies which prove un- successful during the present year will demand their liquidation in order to save what is left. The fate of many offices is bound up in the balance-sheots which they may present on the Bist of December. THE WINDING-UP PROCESS EXPLAINED. The unsophisticated reader may not under- stand the winding-up process by which stock- holders get more in liquidation than in any other way. Itis avery simple affair. The first thing that usually happens to a com- pany about to go into liquidation is to rein- sure its outstanding risks. Bids are some- times requested from leading companies. Generally the company which will take care of the retiring President or Secretary can get the reinsurance contract on its own terms. There is u lively competition for desirable rein- surance, and the commission paid ranges from 2244 to 35 per cent. Within a year one of the liveliest competitors for roinsurance has ap- peared in the “General Reassurance Com- pany” of Paris, with its American head- quarters in Boston. This Company has the reputation of having paid for the reinsurance of the Shaumut, and other companies, as high as 35 per cent commission upon the pro rata un- earned premiums of the retiring Companies. ‘The commission received by the outgoing otfico is usually sutticient to reduce its liabilities far below the legal standard, and if the balance of the business of liquidation is judiciously man- aged the stockholders may maken good thing. Thus the “Safeguard,” which reinsured in tho London & Lancashire, has pnid its ‘stockbolders already 130 cents on each $100 of stock, anc $10 more is expected to be paid. Before its retire- ment, the Sufeguard shares were quoted at only 304. Winding up a company is therefore a pay- ing process to stockholders, and it is for this reason that the step is contemplated with satis- faction by many holders of such stocks. MORE FOREIGN ARRIVALS EXPECTED. The few arrivals of foreign companies dur- ing the present year has been a .disappoint- ment to many individuals, doubtless, but hardly to those who have closely studied the situation. The English managers have abet- ter understanding of American insurance matters than they are credited with. They foresaw the demoralization sooner than their American brethren, and shortened sail early. ‘The managers of English companies now here have no desire to see others enter the field, and those who are not here now havo no wish to try theirluck in the midst of the prevailing demor- alization. It is understood that several foreign offices, among them the Caledonian, Royal Exchange, Manchester, Atlas, Ber- lin, Cologne, Scottish Imperial, Helvetia, Swiss, Svea of Gothenburg, and others, have been favorably inclined to enter New York, but the evidences of hard times in fire- insurance have been too numerous to leave much room for encouragement. Indeed, upon the reports of the Insurance Departments for January and July it was painfully apparent that there was but little chance of doing a protituble business until the times changed for the better. Presently, however, the tongue of busy rumor has stated that three or four French companies and the Berlin-Cologne are seriously resolved to yenture upon American soil, in spite of the poor prospect of profit, and several enterpris- ing gentlemen are preparing to enter the lists ag applicants for the American management of the newcomers. THE RECENT LION-SCOTTISH UNION ARRIVAL, The insurance fraternity was in a bubble of excitement some weeks ago on account of the appointment of American managers of the old Scottish Union & National Insurance Company of Edinburg and the Lion of Lon- don,—the latter a new company with a round million paid-up capital, but little known in Engiand. The managers ot these Companies arrived here in August and September last. The Lion manager is Mr. Charles Bedall, who was formerly a sub-agent of the Royal, in Chancery lane, London. He is a brother of Mr. E. F. Be- dall, of the Royal's New York office. He had numerous applicxtions for his Company, but under his brother's inspiration, it is believed, desired a big gun for his representative. He offered the Company to Mr. Bennett, President of the Connecticut Fire of Hartford, but-was unable to pay Mr. Bennett's price. Soon after the Scottish Union's manager arrived in the city, und the Lion manuger proposed that the two companies should organize their American business under one manugement. The Scotch- men assented, and by this menns the two com- panies together were able to offer Mr. Bennett a salury of $15,0W per year and an interest in net protits. He accepted, and thus became the manager of the two companies named. He is trying the experiment of managing the com- anes’ American business with headquarters at jarttord, but it is the prevailing opinion here that inside of twelve montis he will. be com- pelled to remove his office to New York. ANOTHER ENGLISH COMPANY DIFFICULTY. For more than a month there have been Tumors of an impending change in the American management of the Queen of Liverpool. It is now announced with some degree of positiveness that the former man- ager, Mr. William H. Ross, is hereafter to have an associate manager of equal rank, | and that the United States will be divided into several districts, somewhat after the manner of the Royal and Liverpool, London & Globe Companies. The name of the associate manager is not yet divulged, but it is known that a department bas been éreated out of the States of Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Mary- jand, with headquarters in Philadelphia, under the management of Mr. Frank Olcott Allen, of that city, Mr. Allen has | heretofore been the local agent of the Compa- ny. A Western department, with headquarters at Chicago, has been resolved upon, but ‘at this writing the new manager has not been named tothe public. Other changes in the business of the Company will doubtless be made public ina few days. 1@ inside facta of this change in the Queen's affairs are freely talked about, A sub- manager trom the Liverpool office, Mr. Thomnp- son, has been in the city for some time. and it is generally understood that he came here de- termined ta depose Mr. Kuss from the manaze- ment. He found, however, that the New York Directors of the Queen sustained Mr. Ross so unanimously that he could not supersede him without an unpleasant row with those gentlemen. It is in consequence of the support Mr. Ross received from the New York Directors that he is retained. The gossip pro- voked by these movements nas been rich, rare, and racy, and furnished food for several small scandals, RATES, ETC., IN THE CITY. It may be supposed that as the companies admit the demoralization and are abundantly and painfully aware of the difficulty of mak- ing a profit, that they would and should be unwilling to accept risks excepting at an ad- vanced rate. On the contrary, they continue to do that which they proclaim to be wicked and wrong. There are twenty blocks in the heart of the city known as the dry-goods district, in which rates are fairly maintained, because the demand is greater than the supply. Outside of the boundaries of this charmed circle the rates have gone to the dogs. They are no worse than they were two years ago, but then they were as low as they could be, and that is badenough. Itis not at all to the creditof the companies that they gre ready to sell their policies on wholesale grocery stocks across the street from the dry- foods district at 25 cents, on stocks of hats and straw goods at 40 cents, and on printing olfices at 60 cents. Storage risks are being renewed at 30 cents, and manufacturing risks rated by the old time instruction books (still in use in the Northwest) at 2 per gpnt at 80 cents. RATES, ETC., IN BROOKLYN. But if rates and demoralized practices are below the paying point in this city, in Brook- lyn they are far worse. It is the universally and recognized fact among companies that the rates in Brooklyn are lower than ever before in this country. Dwellings are writ- ten for customers at eight cents net for one year, and 25 cents net for hve years; small re- tail dry goods stocks and thread and needlestores, with fearful exposure of window (inside) lights at 40 cents.! In special hazards, there is 2 moroc- co factory on Flushing avenue written at 49 cents; A. S. Barnes’ printing ollice at 50 cents, and a dig brewery risk at €5 cents. Brooklyn churches are eagerly written by the best cvumpanies at 2 cents, lumber-yards at 7%, and wooden-ware factories nt 1 per cent. These rates are at least 50 percent below the chenpest Chicago rates. The ‘rate on the Ansonia Clock Factory, upon which a loss of $3,000 lately occurred, was 5) to 75 cents, and the list embraced such compa- nies as the #tna, Hartford, Girard, Fire As3o- ciation, and others culled conservative. There Igastrong competition for business In Brouk- lyn, and the rates have been cut and undercut untilthere is nothing left to tight over. The contlict rages particularly over dwelling-bouse risks, and the rates are far lower than on similar risks in this city. Yet there are many of our best underwriters who tell us that there is more money t be made in Brooklyn than in New York. A BIG MUTUAL SCHEME: A party from Cincinnati who has had some experience in the mutual business in Ohio has been in this city for some time trying to work upascheme fora mutual insurance company among merchants, He called upon leading merchants and was pleased with the encourngement he received from all upon whom he called. Unfortunately for himself he commenced at the wrong end of the line. When he had worked the scheme to a point where he could count upon about $25,000 in premium notes, be consulted the lawsof the State and then found that no single premium note cou! be taken for a larger sum than a and that it reqairea 500 such notes ss a_ condition precedent to organization. This discovery placed a quietus upon the scheme, and the Cincinnati ¢entieman returned home dissappointed. The stock com- panies of New York have controlicd the !egislu- tion on this subiect and have made it practically impossibie to organize 2 mutual company in this State no matter how strong or solyent such acorporation might be. A HUGE COMPANY ADVISED. It is frequently suggested that in spite of the hard times it would be a paying invest- |- ment to organize a mammoth American com- pany with a paid-up capital of $5,000,000. This sounds very simple, but it would be a formidable undertaking for anybody. Years ago, in the paliny days of Jay Cooke, that gentleman, in connection with some New York underwriters, proposed to organize such a compuny, and allotted certain proportions of the capital to various cities, giv- ing New York and Philadelphia about two- thirds, and Chicago, Boston, and St. Louis the balance. It was nipped in the bud by the Jay Cooke collapse, and since the proposal has rested in peace. Lately the matter has been newly agitated, and several capitalists have been ap- proached with reference to the matter. The re- port oes that the moneyed men who have been asked to take stock in the affair have declined to subscribe, and in reality no headway has been made toward perfecting the orgunization. Per- haps out of this cerm something may grow here- after. The theory upon which the projecters of this schome are reported to proceed is the uni- versully recognized favoritism of the public for large companies. The rapldly-grow- ing unpopularity of the small companies and their steady decline insurplus are urged as good reasons why large companies succeed and small companies fail. Probably no such com- pany will ever be organized without coming regularly before the public under the auspices of merchants and capitalists. MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS. ‘There are many stories in circulation rela- tive to small city companies being on the verge of liquidation or amalgamation, but they lack confirmation. The Guardian, Hoff- mann, Lorillard, Hope, and others have been mentioned in this connection. ‘The trial of Elijah Alliger has brought out soine strong testimony on behalf of his good character prior to his arrest from various underwriters of prominence. There isa general belief at present that Alliger is a victim of the absquatulated “Col. Boughtun,” who was a re- ceiver of stolen bonds, and that ho will be ac- quitted. The New York Fire's Chicago agency is the + five duys’ wonder of the street. ‘The Company has heretofore ‘steadily declined to appoint agonts, and its new departure is another proof that the old-time strictly local companies are getting over their exclusiveness. There was a so-called National Convention of Underwriters in this citya few weeks ago, in which some honest confessions of malpractices, etc. were made, but nothing effective done to stop them. — it generally pronounced a failure.” The companies are quite as bad as before the Convention met. A fewcompanics had an exusperating experi- ence inthe losson the Liverpvol and London clothing-tire a few days ago. They had accepted the risk “subject to survey,” and before the survey was completed the risk burned. A It isreported that a large number of orders for surplus insurance on elevators and packing- houses from Chicazo have been sent from this city to Europe recently. An inquiry from Lon- don as toa proper rate on the stock of Charles Gossage & Co., of your city, was lately received in an English office in New York. The city offices domg inland business upon the lakes are not happy over the recent losses. They wre nearly all out of pocket un the sengon’s ex- perience. NEMO.
