'PAYING.CLAIMS IN FULL. [ Manager B. J, Smith of the Conuecticu% Fire Insurance Com- |pany, one of the substantial firms, stated today that his company |had already paid on nearly 500 claims, aggregating over half a |million dollars and representing about one-third of the company’s loss in San Francisco, which is estimated at $1,750,000. George W. Spencer, manager of the Aetna Insurance Company, said that claims paid out by his company amounted this morning to #961,000. The Aetna, like the Connectiout, is a prominent ‘‘dollar for dollar’’ company and is not even asking the 2 per cent discount that the company is entitled to if payment is made within sixty days after the filing of the proof of loss. EARTHQUAKE CLAUSES. Christensen, Edwards & Goodwin, representing the Ametican Central, the St. Paul and the Mercantile companies, have paid over | 700 losses, aggregating nearly $500,000. C. F. Mullins, who represents the Commercial Union of London, the Palatine and the Alliance Assurance, all English concerns with earthquake clauses in their policies, is expecting advices from the home offices of the companies within a few days as to what course to pursue in settling the San Francisco losses of the companies. They are all powerful ones and Mr. Mullins says that if he is advised that the companies are responsible for San Francisco fire losses despite the fact of the earthqmake clause in the policies the companies i PITUAE POSTAL MY —Transatlantic (chairman), and Munich, Westchester.

H#ve Pow:r_— to Collect Money Any Way They Are Able. The board of directors of the new corporation authorized by the poliey- holders of the defunct Traders’ Insur- ance Company at their meeting Tast Monday met yesterday morning, adopt- ed articles of incorporation and re- solved to send to Sacramento immedi-| ately for a charter. The work of col-| lecting the policies of the insured and bringing about a settlement through| the receiver or the courts will be begun at once. ' By -the articles of incorporation the Traders’ Policy-Holders' Company, which is the name of the new organ- ization, ~may receive for collection, purchase or otherwise acquire any and | all claims of whatsoever nature agains the Traders' Insurance Company of| Chicago, its officers, directors and| stockholders, arising under policies or| contracts of \insurance heretofore made by the Traders’ Company. It may take | any and all means, by legal action or otherwise, and may do any acts or things necessary or proper to the en- forcement and collection of such claims. The place of business of the new cor- poration is San Francisco, its life is to be fifty: years, and its directors are to number eleven. The capital stock of the Traders' Policy-Holders’ Company is $25,000. It is divided into 25,00u shares, each with a par value of §i. Eleven shares, one for each member of the board of direct- ors, have already been subscribed. The directors are W. B. Cope, J. H. Bennett, H. G. W. Dinkelspiel, C. H. Garoutte, Marshall Hale, W. F. Humphrey, Walter Linforth, W. H. Metson, Johh S, Partridge, W. P. Plummer and Joseph | S. Tobin. | The articles of incorporation have not been fully completed, for they must be modeled to give the directors power under the laws of the State of Illineis. Marshall Hale, acting as chairman of the meeting of the directors, appointed Attorneys W. H. Metson and W. F.| Humphrey to straighten put the arti-| cles as required. They will then be/ signed and the charter sent for imme- | diately afterward. The board will probably be ready to begin its work by Monday of next week. While the articles as adopted give| the corporation power to obtain poli- | cles by almest any means, it is not the | intention to purchase policies nor to da| anything with them. The policies of all policy-holders who wish to become members of the corporation will be| gathered up and collected at the best| possible figure.

The policy-holders of six insurance companies met at 911 Laguna street vesterday afternoon and decided to stand together for the full payment of their policies, less such slight damage reductions on account of the earth- quake as shall be considered fair. They did not incorporate, as did the insured of the Traders’ Insurance Company of Chicago, but they agreed to give their policies to certain attorneys for collec- tion at uniform rates. The policy-hold- ers of the Germania, Franklin of Phila- delphia, Transatlantic, Sun and Penn- svlyania insurance companies were represented at the meeting. : Tomorrow afternoon the insured of the fourteen companies that are pro- tected by strict earthquake clauses in the policies they haye issued will meet at 911 Laguna street for the purpose of organization. Several prominent at- | torneys have given it as their opinion that the earthquake was such a .re- mote eguse as not to invalidate the pol- icies. The holders will recite at this meeting the tgoubles they have had in attempting te collect, and then decide upon 2 definite plan of action for the future. ’ BERGIN FILES ACTION, s Goes to Law to Compel Payment of Policy. Thomas I. Bergin, attorney at law, filed suit in the United States Circult Court vesterday against the Commer- cial Union Assurance Company, Lim- ited, of Longden, to collect $6500 insur- ance oh a two-story building on Cal- ifornia street, near Front, belonging to him. Mr. Bergin alleges that the build- ing was worth $15,000, and that it was destroyed by fire on April 18. It is fur- ther alleged that the insurance com- pany flatly refused to pay him even one cent of insurance, the company insist- ing that the building was destroyed by the earthquake and not by the fire. This assertion Mr, Bergin denies in his com- plaint, and avers that the \Nlldi%‘ was destroyed by the fire and not by the earthquake. & The trial of this case will be of ab- sorbing interest to lawyers as well as laymen, because the suit is without precedent, and the proceedings and judgment of the court will form a new and interesting chapter in insurance jurisprudence. The only issue r- ing in the complaint is as to whether the earthquake invalidated the policy. MUST PAY IN FULL. Nevada Insurance c--nu-uv Gives Qrders to Natlonal Fire Company.

Mau knew that his house was not damaged, but in the excitement follow- ing the quake he was only able to secure a few witnesses to prove its condition.

GEARY STREET LINE 70 STHRT Will Be Put in Oper- ation To-Day. “The machinery (of the Geary-street power-house will b started fomorrow, and within five days the line will be in operation,” said A, D. Shepard, vice president of the company, yesterday. The road could have been run ear- lier, but itWas only late yesterday aft- ernoon that the Board of Public Works granted permission to use the big chim- and Buchanan streets. This chimney was originally 130 feet high, but the earthquake gave it such a jar that the company was compelled to take down about 50 feet of it. The company then asked for a permit to put it into use, but this was refused, because the city officfals ~did not deem it safe. The company took down about 20 feet more, with the result that it can now be used. The chimney was bullt when coal was used for fuel, but now that oil is used its present helght is fully adequate. So today the fires will be lighted in the big furnace, and the machinery, which has not turned since the morn- ing of the 18th, will be set running. Superintendent Grimes says that the slot in the middle of the roadbed is in almost perfect condition, exeepting in places between Kearny and Van Ness avenue, Here it was badly kinked in a few places by the fire. This section of the slot will be torn.up and replaced with new material. It will only take about four days to do this part of the work. The cable is in as good condition as it was before the fire. It was not dam- aged in any way by the fire. Tpe turn- table at the intersection of Geary, Kearny and Market streets was not damaged.

Postmaster Fisk received a letter last Monday from the secretary of the Jap- gnese Association of America calling| his attention to the fact that Dr. F.| Omori, distinguished authority on| earthquakes, had been assaulted with| | stones by boys last Sunday near the| postofice building while engaged in taking photographs of that portion of the bullding and sidewalks injured by | earthquake and dynamite. He said| that the boys wore the uniform of the| special delivery messengers employed in the pestofige. Immedlately on re-| celpt of the letter Postmaster Fisk dis-| patched Hull McClaughry, his personal | representative, to the headquarters of | the association with a written apology for &he conduct of the boys and in structed Mr. McClaughry to detect thi | offenders and dismiss them from the| Governnient service. The boys who were known to have been outside of the building at 10 o'clock last Sunday morning were sum- moned by Mr. McClaughry to his effice | and were informed that if they did not revegl the names of the guilty party or parties they would all be dismissed. They stoutly refused to inform in that way and Mr. McClaughry proposed that each deposit a secret ballot in a hat with the name of the guilty ones written upon it. This was done and it was found that one boy had received a unanimous vote, evidently casting his own ballot against himself. He was at once dismissed from the service. It appears that the boys, whose ages range from 13 to 15, were building a cabin of old tins on a vacant lot near| where Dr. Omori was taking views, and this boy, whose name the pestal au- thoritles refused to divulge, threw a| stone at the professor, striking him on the head. 2 i e SR A NICELY CLAD BABY 1 LEFT AT A SANITARIUM Sisters of Charity, Whe Conduet Insti- tution, Find It on Platter in Dining-Room.

Heart Like a Clock The pulsation of the heart marks the passage of the blood through the veins, just as the ticking of a clock indicates the flight of moments of time. Palpitation, fluttering or irreg- ular action reveals the fact"that thé heart is running down— and unless strengthened, is liable to stop at any time un- der some weakening influence, such as excitement, over-work, or intense mental or physical strain. To regulate the heart action, you should take Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure when any symptoms of a weak heart is apparent. It has no equal, “‘Sometime ago I had a very severe und m and most of so Wi with me.
