Paris, Oct. 20.— Although the nffi

The reason for this is understood to

all foreign insurance companies to de­
posit with the insurance com missioner
of th* particular state in which it does
business a certain amount of bonds ap­
portioned to the business done, to se­
cure its poilcy holders.
“ The amount of United States bonds
thus held by foreign individuals,” says
the register, “ is so insignificant that
it may be said that the National credit
is entirely upheld by domestic mon

“ An annual report of the domestic
holdings shows that the consols of 1903
