Another move on the part of Re- ceiver Byron L. Smith and the fright- ened stockholders of the defunct Trad- |ers’ Fire Insurance Company of Chi- cago to defraud that company’s policy- holders was, according to the state- | ments of several policysholders, begun yesterday morning. At that time no- tices were sent to each of the Traders’ policy-holders informing them that an |office had been opened in Oakland and that their losses would be immediately adjusted there. These notices were signed by Receiver Smith and Adjuster L. A. Moore. The policy-holders wrathfully de- clare that this is an attempt on the !part of Smith, working hand in hand | with the stockholders of the Traders’, to break up their recently formed pro- | tective corporation. By means of this organization the Traders' clients in- tend bringing suit in the Illinois courts against the company and its stock- holders. They intend to attack the writ dissolving the insurance company jon the ground that it never was in- solvent. They have already alleged that the move to secure the decree of dissolution was started by the unlaw- | ful connivance of Smith and the stock- holders, the latter fearing that they would be held personally liable for the |San Francisco losses if the company was not quickly dissolved. | WARY OF THE OFFER. | The movement to adjust the losses is merely. an attempt, in the eyes of the policy-holders, to tear them away from their organization. They say that the Traders' officlals believe that by offer- ing a small settlement the policy- holders will surrender their rights. It is probable that the organization will seek to procure an injunction prevent- ing the receiver from settling any losses until the suits soon to be filed in the Illinois courts are decided. | “Thie scheme on the part of the de- funct Traders’,” said John S. Partridge, secretary of the incorporated polioy- deal with single cases and thus beat | those who are trying to get all that is |due them.

Harry Gordon of Gordon & Fragzer, | former agents for the Traders' Insur- ance Company, who is now assisting | Adjuster L. A. Moore im handling the ’n.flnlrl of the bankrupt corporation, said at his office in the Canning block |in Oakland yesterday that he had re- ceived no notice of any letter having been sent to the San Francisco policy- holders of the Traders’ by Recelver Smith. Gordon said he had no advices con- cerning settlements or adjustments. He explained that anything looking to- ward settlement would come from Chi- cago, and could not be accomplished without an order of court, the com- pany being under the court’s jurisdic- tion after a receiver was appointed. The city department of the Traders' has been moved to 9 Front street, the country department remaining in Oak- {1and. insurance in the burned district of San Franeisco. On the 1088 committees the names of the “six-bitters” appeared regularly with those of the “dollar for dollar” corporations. Now If the “dol- lar for dollar” companies carry out their present’programme the parting |of the ways in adjustments between the two classes of fire insurance com- | panies and in all ebse that relates to | common action in the present insur- | ance emergency would seem to be near |at hand. | Vartus steps have been forced by | public opinion. The interests of the | Insurance companies were bound to- gether in certain matters. The ad- Justment bureau was in the interest of economy and of econvenience. If it breaks down, and the first step in that direction may be taken today, some- thing new in insurance history in the | Unjted States is near at hand. | pearance of unity of action woul | probably be ended and the only co. | herency in making settlements would |remain with the ‘“dollar for dollar” icompanlen. which have decided finally on a plan that practically pledges them {to aet by | selves, No meeting of the committee of fif- en has been held since the “dollar themselves and for them- | te HAMMERSMITH & FIELD Modern Jewelers and Silversmiths NOW READY FOR BUSINESS First Jewelry Shop Open on Van Ness Avenue THE ARTISTIC TROPHIES TO BE GIVEN IN THE GREAT ATHLETIC CARNIVAL, HELD IN GOLDEN GATE PARK JULY 4th, ARE NOW ON DISPLAY IN OUR SHOW WINDOWS. d PLEASED TO SEE OUR FRIENDS CORNER VAN NESS AVENUE AND EDDY STREET All ap- | POLIGY-HOLDERS TRUSTEES MEET Committee Is Chosen _to Formulate a Plan of Action. The trustees of the Policy-Holders' | Protective League held their first meet- ing yesterday and effected organization and also took their first step to fou- mulate a plan of campaign, the pur- | pose of which is to get as much money as possible for the fire insurance pol- fcy-holders in this eity who had prop- erty in the burned district. All the trustees were present.. An- drew Carrigan and Albert Dernham represented the Merchants’ Assoclation, Charles H. Crocker and Rudolph Taus- sig_the Chamber of Commerce, James D. Phelan and F.

As | soon as this was accomplished a long | discussion occurred concerning the |work to be undertaken, in which all the trustees took part. The more the subject was talked over the more there appeared to be done. The necessity of | having a definite policy was first taken up.

There |are solvent companies that can be |looked to for payment of 100 cents on |the dollar. There are companies that | are supposed to be in a bad way finan- cially.

The meeting day of the committee of fifteen is Tues- day. The situation is therefore all new {to the committee of fifteen as a body. | On' the commiittee of fifteen there are ntatives of both the “dollar for companies and also the “six- bitters.” It is difficult to see how they can agree when one wing of the under- | writers has resolved to go out to the | people with a programme of its own, | regardless of the other set of com- | panies. This leads to the supposition | that the split that some have antici- pated in the counsels of the adjusters’ bureau will come at the meeting today. NO RESULTS ARRIVED AT. The last two large joint losses in which loss committees were appointed | were those on the St. Franeis Hotel and the Shreve building, both of which are owned by the Crocker heirs. The committees to inquire and report are: On, the St. Francis Hotel, Queen as | chairman ‘and the Home Fire and Ma- rine and the Scottish Union; on the | Shreve bullding, the Springfield as chairman and the Secottish Union and Comntinental. Three of these companies are on tne “dollar for dollar” list | and one is not. The necessity for pressing matters hat the “dollar for dollar” concerns have perceived Is made clear by the number of losses that have passed | through the hands of the loss commit- | tees and that still, in at least eleven |cases out of twelve, have not been acted on finally by the companies in |interest. The last loss on the list to date 15 the Shreve bullding, numbared 1170. In each of these losses six ‘or more companies are concerped. The risks form a large part of those that | the Pollcy-hoMers’ Protective League has been organized to take up and represent—at least $75,000,000 as they are listed on the bullétin boards in the ferry bullding.

SALOON MEN DISAPPOINTED Those. Whg;V ere in the Burnt Area Gannot Invade Other. Long List—_gi Applica- tions Granted by ' Board. There was grief in the hearts of sev- eral former downtown saloon-keepers last night when the Board of Police Commissioners refused to grant them transfers of licenses from the former | locations in the burned district to the | unburned section, But two of the Commissioners, Rea- gan and Drinkhouse, put in appearance at the meeting. Commissioner O'Grady is away on his honeymoon and Presi- |-dent Poheim sent no excuse for his ab- sence, Thus the two Commissioners met no opposition, and they followed the lines of the recent ordinance to the letter. They receded but little in the matter of their own regulations, and & host of expectant liquor dealers went away disappointed. Drinkhouse and Reagan turned down nearly every application for a transfer from the burned to the unburned sec- tion. A number of well-known liquor dealers had secured locations and many of them had fitted up the premises at some expense, in the belief that licenses | could be secured. When their cases, | most of which had been continued from last week, were called, they were told that their requests would be refused.
