RETIRED OFFICERS’ PLEA They Think One Tie Insurance Company is Working Them Hardship. A Free Talk by One of Those Af- fected—A ‘General Liberal Policy Shown. Retired naval officers holding policies in th? Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York are complaining about the recent action of that company in increasing its rates on naval -officers, indiscriminately, during the progress of the present war with Spain. It is represented that it is unjust to officers on the retirad Ist and officers on the active list assigned to shora duty to charge them the same insurance rates as officers attached to naval vessels actually engaged in operations against the enemy. The claim is made that retired officers and officers on shore duty are actuaily in no greater danger in consequence of the war than are citiz2ns in the private walks of life, and are equitably no more subject to war risks. @ An officer of the retired lst, wno holds a policy in the Mutual Insurance Company, is very indignant over its action. He talked freelyvon th: subject to a Star reporter to- y: “This same company, if I mistake not,” he said, ‘a short time ago offered the govern- ment a very large sum of money on loan to help carry on the war. Patriotism is al- ways to be commended, but when it can b2 offered advantageously, the party making the offer not only gets praise, but som2-| times derives considerable benefit. Judging from the company’s notice, the naval officer who fs insured in it will have to pay round- ly for the privilege, and has littl> else to gain. All officers appear to be included in the company’s notice, as it is not stated that any are exempt. “I do not understand why that ts so. It is not apparent to me that naval officers on the active list on shore duty ineur an mor2 danger Curing a time of war than the civilians around them, nor that retired of- ficers ordered to temporary duty on shoi © in any more danger than they were while living at home. In case the war should last a few years, th? insurance com- pany would receive more from the regular and extra premiums than the insured would from his entire policy when pail. What be- comes of all the money paid /nio thes: com- panies? Is it divided among the insured at any time? Why should a naval officer be obliged to pay for danger incurred by com- batants when he ig safe on shore thou ands of miles from ‘the s>at of acrual dan- imply to ? It looks to me as if it were allow the companies to make a b) pay large salaries, and make " ments setting forth their flour tion. The regular premium large enough, while the di to the insured are So far as my experience goes, tne compar ms to be the only gainer in t action. An officer insuring his ti yndingly sn find pr put on family of that officer must sutfe i jority of life insurance companies ac‘ di ferently in this matter, and impose no extra ar risk on nawal officers, regurdiess of their conditions of exposure. ‘The action of the Mvtual Life Insurance Company of New York complained of 1s | embodied in a notice to the naval officers insured in that company, sayin “In accordance with the provisions of the pern ission already granted to — , n= sured under policy nurrbered issued by this company, to serve as an officer of the United States navy, the annual extra premium charged by the company in time of war is hereby declared to be such per- of the amount insured under said policy, not exceeding ten per cent ( it difficult enough to r miums, but when an ext without any show of reason, the! The m:; pany’s mortuary experience as a conse- quence of such hostilities, the same to be ascertained after their close, and then to be adjusted by the company. “The amount ef such extra premium, with interest at the rate of four per cent. per annum, will be adien upon said policy, to be deducted from {ts dividends or from its cash value ff surrendered, or from its amount at maturity, or from the amount of any paid-up policy issued in lieu thereof; or it may at any time be paid in cash by the policy holder. “Should said policy become a claim during the continuance of hostilities the extra premium, as herein provided, will be de- ducted from its amount and will be subject to final adjustment, under mortuary allot- ment, after the corr charge for extra premium shall have been fixed by the com- “This agreement will not keep the above policy in force unless the regular premiums are duly paid and the other covenants are observe Liberal Policy by Other Companies. From an inquiry made by a Star reporter among the representatives of life insurance companies in this city, it is found that a liberal policy is, as a rule, followed in the treatment of policy holders who are en- gaged in the war. Generally speaking, the companies have assumed what are known as war risks and have waived the clause in the policies prohibiting policy holders from engaging in the military service. In the case of army and navy officers permits are, as a rule, issued by the companies without extra charge. In some cases it is understood that a policy is subject to a lien, which is deducted from the amount due when death occurs. The above applies to those holding policies at the outbreak of the war, but in case of the issue of new policies such regulations are made as to the extra risk supposed to be incurred by service in a war as each company determines. For regular army and navy officers an extra charge is made even when in the service outside of this country, but for all others in the army and navy who go to Cuba, for example, an extra charge is made by ‘sev- eral companies. In the event their duty does not call them outside of the country, no Charge is made in the cost of insurance. When war risks are taken into account some companies provide for a deduction of 10 per cent in the amount of the policy in the event of death. But in the case of the New York company of which complaint is made an extra premium is charged. > SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND. Annual Concert of the Maryland In- stitution to Be Given Tomorrow. The annual concert of the pupils of the Maryland School for the Blind will be given at the Lafayette Square Opera House this evening at 8 o'clock. These concerts have always been highly successful in past years, and this season’s effort will in no wise fall below the standard already established. No.eharge is made for admis- sion to the conecrt,:dt being the intention of the manegemént of the institution mere- ly to give somé ided to residents of the District of Columbia of the advantages presented by the, school. Children residing in the District who are chut out from go- ing to school here, by reason of defective eyesignt may, under. the provisions of sec tion 4869 of ‘the Revised Statutes, enjoy a course of instruction in that Institution, and so the coneeft is for the purpose of affording an oppertunity to Washiagtonians to judge of the, work and: aims of the school. Applications for membership may be made either to Dr. B. M. Gallaudet, pres- {dent of Gallaudet Gollege, Kendail Green, D. C., or to Mr, F. D. Morrison, superin- tendent of the Maryland School for the Blind, Baltimore, Md, The concert Friduy evening will embracé many enjoyable num- bers, and among those who wiil take part will be Mr. Francis Myers, who is well known in Baltimore, and Mr. T. Harry Maxwell of this city, who has just com- pleted his musical education. ‘The program will include numbers by standard compos- ers, and the affair, from all present indi- cations, will reflect a great amount of cred- it on the Maryland institution. Ke TENDER OF ~A_ HOSPITAL Chesapeake and Ohio Railway to Offer One to the Government. Located at .Clifton Forge and Well Situated—Opening of White Sulphur Springs. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W. Va., June 15, 1898. It is stated on the authority of a high official of the Ch2sapeake and Ohio Rail- way Company that the magnificently equipped “hospital of the company near Clifton Forge, a few miles east of -White Sulphur, will be tendered to the use of the governm2nt in case the latter shall need it for the use of convalescent soldiers. Al- though the location of this hospital would seem to be a long way from the seat of war the conveniences of modern railway travel place it within easy r2ach of both Key West and Tampa, as well as Chicka- mauga, at which latter point arrangements have already been made for the opening of a hospital, the gift of Mrs. L. Z. Leiter of Chicago. The C. and O.’s hospital, nzar Clifton Forge, was formerly known as Gladys Inn, and was a favorite summer resort. The railway compeny desiring, however, to es- tablish a place where its sick or injured em- ployes could be treated in the best manner and free of expense to the sufferers, has converted the hotel into a hospital, and a few railway men are now ther3. The ca- pacity of the building is 300 patients, be- sides their nurses and other attendants. The railway company is unusually consid- erate, it is said, to its employes, who are taken ther2, and not only furnish medical attention, medicines ayd attendance free, but when a man ts any members of his family with him, will carry them free to and from their homes to the hospital and boards them at the latter place free of ex- pense so long as they may see proper to re- main. The building is located on a bluff over- looking the Jackson river, a short distance from where the Jackson and Cowpasiure rivers units and form the James river. Of course none of the patients now at the C. and 0.’s hospital would be sent awa, as there lIready accommodations there it is believed that this would the sick soldi2rs the govern- went might wish to keep there at one time.

To the Editor of The Evening Star: I was glad to see the article in The Star on the condition of prisoners in the police stations. And one of the worst features, and one not presented by The Star, is that persons detained, without charge or war- rant, are no better treated than the ac- cused. Some months ago I saw a lady I had known for years thrown into the patrol wagon, without word or warning. Indig- nant at the brutality of the proceeding, I followed on to the station, where I was in- formed that there was no charge against her and no warrant for her arrest. But some obstrusive person had told the police. mun that she was “half demented and an- noying.”’ 1 explained to the leutenant that any ap- parent eccentricity resulted from an injury to her head several years before, but that she was intelligent, harmless, refined and a soldier's widow. ‘She was, nevertheless locked up that long hot July night in the small cell on the upper floor, and in the morning was permitted to return to her home. As a result of my complaint to the Com- missioners, an alleged trial was held be- fore a court composed wholly of policemen, which was the most stupendous farce I have ever witnessed. The only defense was that she was taken thus forcibly and locked up because she needed immediate care. But the evidence was unanimous that no physician saw her, she was given no medicine or food, or even a drink of water through that hot night, but was simply incarcerated like an ordin- ary criminal. The “trial board” acquitted all concerned, the Ccmmissioners “cheerfully concurred,” and I was the only person found guilty. The Woman Suffrage Association of the District secured matrons in the station houses, but there are not enough, and most of the stations are without a “female” vig- ilant after six in the evening. We need watchful women on the police force, at our depots and steamboat wharves, and a house of detention for the innocent, and no station house where women are incarcerated should be left with- out a matron any hour of day or night.
