Senator Veatch Is having considerable trou ble over th Insurance on nls flouring mill re cently burned at Cottage Grove. He first took out a policy of $4,000, afterwards a policy ol l,ooo. It appears there M a pro vision in all policiea that when an additional policy ia taken out the former Insurance coin- Iiany must lie untitled of the toot, and ao .nowledge the tame in writing, or by indorse ment on the p diry, or els it 1 void This Mr. Veatch failed to do. After eonaiiltingat torneys Mr. Veatch surrendered the first policy, at he waa advised he could not collect it by law. The second company refute to pay the full amount of insurance, holding they should Say a proportionate amount of loss with th ret insurers. A law stilt will likely be the result nf the muddle. Insurance policies hav a multitude nf conditiuna printed on thein In small type that are rarely reatl by the insureu. We should not be surprised if many busiuess men who have taken out second jwllcie on their property are In th stmt onudition. To Portland. Dr. W. T.
