(Y\lnn. th, Feb. 3.—~To the Editor of T ”I " The 1 nst which the fn= sur Profested (W yeirs ago, does not ap affect their profits, It was said at the v that the old reliable compa- nies would be conpelie 1 to withdraw from Ne= braska, because, In thelr opinion, the law phiced u promiim on Tocendlarisi, Tho re- ports of elzht companies recently filed with the state anditor show that out of a otal bus- iness of §76,750 their net earniy amounted to T8, 050 per cent of the total recipts. The th I8 that Nebraska is one of the most rofitable fields in the dneurance domain, Presuming that Tk Bex does not desire to mislead the public, 1wish to call your at- tention 1o the aboveeditorial, which appuared in Tx Bee January 21, “The writer of tho editorial has takon the receipts and losses of cight fire insurace companics in Nebraskn in__the year 1500, and has deduced a conclusion that all insurance companies are making money here. When it is considered that therc were 118 five insur- ance companies legally doing business in Ne- brasica in 1500, it will ‘00 apprecusted that the expericice of eight companies is of no wore value inarriving at the results of the busi- ness thup the experience of one company, Again, the writer assumes that a 50 per ceut 1oss ratio means 50 per cent profit o the npany, losmg sight of the expenses of the business, These cxpenses, cousisting of commissions o agents, taxes, auditor’s foes, oice rents, supplies, postago, salaries and traveling expenses are all combined by the companics under the head of miuagoment > of the determinea these management expenses, and the united expericu companics b enses to per cent of the premiums, Consequently a 50 per cent 10ss ratio means a 15 per cent. profit instead of @ 50 per cent profit. Itis true thut Nebraska has been in the past a profitable field for life insurance come panies, but, the years 1830 and 1800 havo demonstrated that 1t1s so no longer, 1t may be denied that the valued policy lay has been the causo of the heavy inerease in losses, but the fact remuins that co-incident with ‘the passage of this law, losses have increased greatly. This has also been the ex- perience of the companies in Ohio, Wiscon- sin and Missouri immodiately after the pass. age of this law. The last annual report of the stte auditor shows the ratio of losses to premiums to have been 27 4-10 per cent in 1888 and 46 1-10 per cont in IS86, And the year 1500 will show another large increase in tho loss ratio, X The experience of the city of Omal out hears the assertion that this vicious law whioh >fits only u dishonest claimant, ws no hon- est man wishes to collect from a insurance company more than he has lost, has increased the losses. The law was passed in March, 1850, Fire Chief Galligan's annual report shows the fire loss of Omaha to have been: 1888 e § 47,572 1880 s 107,228 ir D\V.! lllmnlh'm on a3 it becomes possible for an owner rty to actually make a profit by its burning, then a large inerease of fires is in- evitable. The valued policy law does this, and the most careful and stringent restriction with which the compauics surround their bus anuot counteract the pernicious effectof the law. No rcputable insuranco company will knowingly iusure property for wore than three-fourths of its value, but the business has to be done” through agents, and where the assured is the sole judgeof the { value of his property it is impossible to al- Ways prevent over-insurance. I have collated the experionce of all of the companies which have already filed with the stato auditor returns of vheir business for 1500, and all other companics whose fig- es [ nave s yot been able to secure. Out of 113 companics I have the business of sixty-nine for the last two yeurs, and enclos it horewith in detail. These figures show Premiums of sixty-nine companies in 1880, al Losses of sixty-nine com Premiums of thesamesixty-nine com panies in 1590 vreos 835,081 Losses of the same sixty-nine com- panies in 1540 : Loss ratio of si year 1859, 51 9-10 per cent, 1038 ratio of the same sixty-nine companios in 1800, 67 6-10 per cent. Tho ‘consequence of this 10 per cent ine crease in the loss ratio is to change Ne- braska from a profitable to an unprofitable state, as the companics lose moncy if the loss ratio Is over 6 por cent, The edito) ed to, does nothing but indicate the prejudice of the writer towards insurance companies snd & false prowise aud a false conclusion to provea desired proposi= tion, Iu justice to the insurance fratermity and as a watter of fairness to honest under- wrlting, I should like 10 have you put the mattor Tight to the public and not leaye them with the mistaken sentiment voiced by this editorial, last report, reo- $106,07 0 308,483 558,965 s in the The stato auditor, in s omuiended the repeal of the valued policy law, and it 1s to be hoped that the legislature will comply with his suggestion at. the present session, Fraxces Daxa - Mis.
