Strong Insurance Company Withdraws
From Califoreia.
Kin Francisco, June IS.— The Ger­
mania Insurance company, of New
York, w ill write no more insurance in
this state, w ill close all its offices and
abandon California as an insurance
field.
Telegraphic instructions have
been received from the home office to
that effect and w ill be followed.
Two reasons are given for this action.
One, general in its scope, is that of an
ultra-conservative company not caring
to risk any more of its capital in Cali­
fornia losses. The other is more spe­
cific, and says the decision of the com­
pany was influenced by the legislature
and Insurance Commissioner Wolf.
The action of the Germania company
is the talk of insurance circles.
When
it was reported that the Eagle and some
of the other smaller companies would
quit Californio, there was little com­
ment— it was expected— but when a
company like the Germania declared
itself in the same manner the entire
commercial community of the city was
startled.
The Germania is one of the strong
companies doing business in California,
having assets of 17,000,000, and is pay­
ing its losses as rapidly as they are ad­
justed.
Among insurance men the
Germania is noted for its conservatism.
It was thought probable that tire com­
pany had been frightened out of the
state by its recent losses. This wan not
fully admitted at the offices of the
company, though it was conceded that
the character of the loss and the man­
ner in which it was incurred may have
hid its effect on tire directorate.
There is every likelihood that a num
her of companies w ill follow the exam­
ple of the Germania. Smaller com
panies Bee in it a precedent under
which they may claim a reasonable ex­
cuse for quitting the state, and on the
other hand it may be the pioneer’move-
ment in what may develop into con­
certed action to secure the repeal of the
act at the next session.

Washington— Gifford Pinchot, chief
of the Forestry service, has overruled
the protest of the Umatilla County
Woolgrowers’ association in the matter
of charging a grazing fee for the Blue
mountain forest reserve range this sea­
son. The woolgrowers aljo protested
that they were not assigned individual
ranges.
The department explained
that it was not customary to assign
particular tracts to individual stockmen
when reserves were first created, and it
is not yet determined what plan w ill be
followed in the Blue mountains.^
The association also called attention
to recent decisions by the California
and Washington conrta to the effect
that the secretary of agriculture is
without authority to impose a tax for
the use of forest reeerve range, and
without authority arbitrarily to regu­
late its use. The forest officials inter­
pret these decisions to hold that the
secretary of agriculture had not been
empowered to enforce any penal code,
but did have the right to keep the re­
serves clear of stock or lease them on
such reasonable conditions as he should
prescribe. No appeal has been prose­
cuted to a final hearing in either case
but the officials believe their right in
the sphere indicated is beyond all pos­
sible question, and sav that court deci­
sions w ill have no influence upon the
rules adopted for control of reserves.
Portland—The government canal at
Celilo will coat $10,000,000, instead of
$4,000,000, according to I. H. Taffe,
who has been operating fish wheel)
near there for 20 yeats.
“ The contractors, Smith & Jones,
who are digging the first half mile at
the Celilo end, w ill lose $100,000 on
the job,” he said,
“ They took it at
too low a figure, evidently not knowing
the nature of the rock they have to
blast out. Their bid was „ $294,000.
They have about 100 men at work pre­
paring a foundation for the rock work
on the upper end of the canal.”
Mr. Taffe says there is nothing in the
fishwheel businees this season because
“ those fellows on the lower river won’ t
let a single salmon get past them.” He
gets a good price, 7 cents a pound, for
ail he traps, his market being in the
East.
His cold storage works are,
however, devoid of salmon this season,
and he does not anticipate any great
improvement in the run.

000 has been cut off the geological 1 ur-
vey appropriation.
The government was about to begin
the teeting of mineral fuels of the
West, including the coals and lignites
of the Pacific coast. Little work of this
character can be done, for the appro­
priation »as only $100,000, when twice
that amount lias been annually appro­
priated for similar work in the East.
Instead of $100,000 to carry on the
investigation of mineral resources, in­
cluding black sand experiments at Port­
land, the house grants but $50,000.
This will shut off the black sand work
entirely, when the present special fund
is expended.
The appropr ation for forest reserve
surveys is cut from $130,000 to $100,-
000 and a ent of $50,000 is made in
the appropriation for topographic sur­
veys, which form the basis of all the
geological survey work. Congress has
been appropriating $200,000 annually
to gauge streams preliminary to under­
taking actual irrigation work. This is
cut to $100,000 and means material in­
terference with irrigation surveys in lo­
calities where new projects are contem­
plated.
Another cut that will be felt is in
the appropriation for the annual report
on mineral resouices of the United
States. This will cut down the sub­
ject matter of the valuable government
document and will restrict the issue to
the inconvenience of the mining inter­
ests of the country.
