accompany a real estate mortgage. Not a
flru company In the world , with the best
underwriting talent , years of experience
and millions of assets , dare duplicate the
lines taken by thcso Solons of underwriting.

ferent risks , with u classification nearly as
great as the subscribers to this concern ,
shrink from lines above $10,000 , as a child
with a burnt finger from a fire.
Yet those Individual Underwriters sleep the
sleep of the cautious , prudent business man
who has provided for all the cruel adversities
of misfortune. Not ono of them dreams that
If In case of a flro In the dry goods dis
trict of New York that might develop Into

cage , Boston and Now York , and may hap

would bo called upon by the grim court of
law to prove that this Individual Under
writing nsoclatlon was not a partnership ,
limited or unlimited. All agree that they
are In honor bound and legally too , to foot the
bill presented by their unfortunate brother
subscribers ; some say only to a certain
percentage. If this Is true , where Is the In
surance for the amount not assumed by them ?
Nona of thcso men dream that In case their
life-savings and business Is destroyed by flre ,
If perchance ( and there IS a chance ) If some
question should arise whereby their claim
might not bo allowed by the advisory com
mittee and they should bo comn'cllcd to ap
peal to the courts to force a settlement of
tholr claim , they have no ono corporation
to SUQ , but must bring suit against all their
brother subscrlbers,191ln forty-four different
courts and cities of. the United States. A
sorry Job tS ( contemplate. Why do people
call this Insurance ? True < 'tis good for the
men who organized the scheme. It gave
them some protection for surplus lines for
property that could not bo covered by good
comtpanlcs.
After securing all the good Insurance pos
sible , | t wasa * wlsd move for Claflln , Armour
and other merchants and packers carrying

Insurance I would carry my own risk and
not agree to assume a liability to L > o' < mcas-
urcd by a conflagration , that may happen
any moment. Only mutual Insurers or
dividual underwriters will subscribe tholr
names to the possible assumption of an ob
ligation without a limit. True , by their
agreement with each other , they limit the
demand on any ono. $50,000 subscriber to
about ' $4 ,500. say one-eighth of the amount

all contracts for future protection would be

They are generally organized by unsuccessJ

If these good Business men were required to

no capital are the most dangerous. How
about Insurance companies on which the1'
credit basis of the business world Is formed ?
A Mend. once an agent ( up.

lovely and the gposo hangs .high , but If
losses should coma ? So with Individual un
derwriting. Hotter make It strictly Individ
ual , and every Individual carry his own risk.
It Is enough thesii trying times to endorse
the many weak companies honestly trying
to do a legitimate business. Ono point
claimed by the individual Underwrite Is
that they have paid every loss claim dur
ing the seven years of tholr existence.
True , but this argues only that they have
been lucky and have not struck any of the

LIGHTING THE CAPITOL.
A 1-iirco Klrctrlo Plant to Ilo Put In by
tint Kovcritincnt.
It Is probable that the electric light
ing plant to bo put in the nation's capitol -
itol will not only bo required to light
that building , but also to illuminate the
congressional library , which Is to bo the
largest building of the kind in the world
and which , by reason of its uses , will re
quire the best class of illumination.
To accommodate such a plant , says the
Philadelphia Record , it will be neces
sary to locate the engine and dynamos
in a structure erected for this special
purpose. The location of the power
house is now being carefully considered ,
and the decision will probably bo
reached very soon. The liouso will bo
ornamental In appearance , and will beef
of Butllolont size to-eontain not only the
eight dynamos necossurv for the present ,
but alfao for other buildings that may bo
added to the group clustering around
the capltol , notably the , homo for the
faupromo court. "
A careful estimate- has placed the
original cost of the building , the ma
chinery , the wiring and general instal
lation , the plant at $200,000. , This
will insure the work to bo of the best
character and the plant to bo of milll-
eiont sbco to furnish nil the light that
can bo used in the buildings and the
grounds. This latter Is u most impor
tant item In the calculation , for nt pres
old , thpro is an utterly inadequate illu-
inmatton of the great park. It is not cer
tain whether the grounds will bo lighted
by are lumps or groups of incandescent
globes. 15ut this la u matter of detail
to bo Bottled afterward.
ArouL'h estimate that has'already
been made of the cost of maintaining
the now plant , which will do not only
the worlc now done by the gas and elec
tric plants in the Capitol building , but
also the entire work of lighting the
library building and the Maltby house ,
shows that it willcost in the neighbor
hood of $10,000. ' '

that among its 2,000 odd generals there
is not oiio below the time of apparent
dotage who has comminuted oven n divi
sion before the enemy.
Gourko Is dying , Germany , while
yet iiiournlng the loss of Von Kamoko ,
known as the "Commander of Purlb" in
the jWlntor and spring of 1871 , has just
lost , her great cavalry general , Von
Voraen , who ( studied his art in the
American war. Austria boasts of "tho
victor of Custom , " AehduUo Albrecht ,
out ho is an old man and not In good
health. .MacMahon is dead , Canrobert
is too old to mount a hor&o , and Stiusslor ,
while Btill vigorous , is not credited with
being a great army leader. Tho. bitua-
tlon reminds ono of that existing in 1702 ,
when the continent had but one military
loader of repute in the poison of the
Prussian Hold marshal , the duke of
Brunswick. So great wns the dearth of
army leaders that the republic of Franco
secretly olTcrcd him the post , of
generalissimo. If ho had accepted the
otTer the republic's fate might per
haps have boon diltm-ontly decided , for
when he afterward led the Prussians
against the French his loss of grip soon
manifested itself , and the man wno , in
his manifesto of July 25 , declared that
ho intended to wipe Paris , oil the face of
the earth , ' and who had advi&cd his
olliccrs "not to take too much baggage ,
inasmuch as the impending war was
only a military promenade , " a month erse
so later Ordered his troops to retreat at
Valtny , oven before they had IIred a
shot , persuading the king "that it was
the smartest thing to do. "
All commanding generals of the prin
cipal European power , Germany , have
attained their ranlc under the regime of
William 11 , and oven Poultcney Bigolow
agrees that his majesty has made
numerous military blunders. Of the
whole number 13'aron von Lee alone has
been chief of an army corps for moro
than four years. Ho is 03 and was , I
believe , on the ponei-al'd stair during
the Franco-Gorman war. Of tlio other
army corps chiefs , four arc 04 years old ;
two , ono of thorn being Count Waldor-
see , Gl ; ono 00 , three 59 , ono 58 , thrco 57
and ono , Prince Frederick of Ilohcn-
xollern. 41 years old.
The latter is the kaiser's cousin , and
though a capable officer gives little hope
of over attaining renown as a strategist.
On him the mantle of the late General
Von Vorsen has fallen as commander
of the Third army corps. His advance
ment has been unprecedentedly rapid.
Ho became a lieutenant in his I'Jthycar ,
'
and in this capacity served in the b'attlo
of Kocniggraotz. During the French
war ho attained the rank of chef d'ess-
cadron and during the years of peace
that followed that of division general.
Up to u few weeks ago Germany had
at least ono great strategist , tried in
battle , Count Blurnontb.nl , who won the
victories for which the orown prince ,
Frederick William , afterward Frederick
III. , obtained credit. Ho has now been
shelved and ia his stead the king of
Wurtemborg , who is principally known
for aping his namesake of Germany in
all but his creditable performances , has
been appointed inspector general of the
Fourth army.
A Berlin editor , an expert on military
topics , writes mo that if "tho war with
two fronts" should over become a much-
dreaded reality , the king of Saxony
would undoubtedly bo intrusted with the
command of the army on the eastern
front , Russia. Six corps , the First , Second
end , Fifth , Sixth , Twelfth and Seven
teenth , would constitute his forces.
' Would the Austrians , Germany's
allies , also bo placed under his majesty's
command ? " I had asked him.
"That has not been
question yet sot-
" informant. "It is
tied"says , my only
agreed upon that1 Austria shall send
thirty division of regulars , fourteen
divisions of reserves and eight cavalry
divisions against Russia. "
"How about the "second front , that
pointing toward Franco ? "
"Forty-four Gorman divisions of in
fantry and six divisions of cavalry are
at our disposal at any moment , aside
'
from twenty-eight Italian 'infantry di
visions and three divisions of Italian
cavalry. "
"Who will lead them11
"Noboay knows. Italy has no ono
general of distinction who has scon
aorvino in the Held1 in anything approaching
preaching a commanding position.aside
from a handful of Garibaldi chiefs. "
The venerable proprietor of the Hotel do
Rome , fli Berlin , Herr Muohling , once
told me that a few days after war had
been declared in 1870 ho met Field
Slarshal von Moltko promenading in the
Thior Garten. Muohling expressed his
istonishmcnt at this , lie thought the
general would bo head over heels buried ,
, n work. Moltko only smiled. "I
touched the button , " ho said , "forty-
sight hours ago , and now I can take my
est until it is time to move the
jonoral's staff in the direction ol Strns-
nirg. Ah ! if you had caught mo hero
) romcnadlng for the last four years
hotiltl bo in about the position of turj
neil and hasty preparation you though
no in. "
There is no need of protesting that the
jor'mnnarmy leaders nro not promonad-
ncr ; they are working ; they are ready ;
hey aro. perhaps in a hotter 'condition
o meet an enemy today than over be-
ore. But who , will lead the present
enders ? , The Berlin editor to whom i
oforrod avoided oven answering the
[ iicstiun Who Would command the second
rent of the German forces that tinned
.gainst . Franco. J hear , from other trust
worthy sources that Count Hacseler ,
ommandor of the Fourth corps , is
(
.esignated 'by the emperor for tlm t
lositlun. At the Albatiun inanouvros

in the floor of his library. He is said to
M ) very proficient in that and his stand-
ng advice to his olllcors is to practice
\'i\r \ , if only with matches representing
nilltary forces.
Franco and Knglund both glory in the
losscssloii of generals who earned dis
tinction in lighting cannibals and wild
tooplo generally. M. Dodds has done
jroat borvlco in Dahomey and Lord
iVolsoloy may bo excellently well pro-
mred to fight the Ashantoos and Zulus ,

as those of the Ualkans.
Germany and Austria have recently
made a change in the personnel of tholr
miiilstera of wtu , Brommrt vonSohollen-
dorf assuming the Gorman portfolio ,
while General Krighammcr hccamo
minister of war In Austria-Hungary.
The latter is entirely unknown to fame ;
lie has been a general of cavalry for
some time and commanded an army
corps at Krakow , hut has scon no service
to speak of in the Hold.
General Uronsart comes from a mili
tary family , and has the reputation of
an ardent student of the science of war
and of strategy. In 1870 ho wns a major ,
but did not have any command. Ho is
( iO years old , and it is s.aiU of hiin that
he knows the duties of his great otllco
thoroughly , iioth ho and his colleuguo
of Austria may bo trusted as worthy
successors to greater men before them ;
they may bo fullj capable to continue
the.wprk of planning the war of the
future in all its .details , but Field
Marshal von Moltko says : "It is n de
lusion to believe that a plan of war may
be laid for a prolonged period and car
ried out in every point. "
At another point in his "Franco-Gor
man War" the great battle thinker says :
"What the loader of a great army must
do is to got a clear view of the circum
stances , decide for the best for an un
known period un.itearry , out his purpose
unflinchingly. " '
In order to live up to that maxim the
army leader must have experience in
the Held , and at present wo iind experi
enced generals nowhere in the ranks
It looks , indeed , as if the war lords of
pur generation made a point of dispens
ing with the services of generals who
have shown tholr capabilities before the
enemy as quickly as possible.
A summary of the generals of our
day ! with reference to tliolr ability to
lead in the Held , is as follows :
Germany No le'ader , except the king
of Saxony , who is quite an old man , and
whom the accident of birth made what
ho is.
Austria The Archduke Albrechtalso
quite old. ,
Russia Four leaders , having seen
service in the fioldj but none of them
great , namelycGdnernls DragomirolT ,
Wannowski. ObrutchotT and Rovcky.
Erance No le'ado > , Saussier being old
and General Do'dds having had experi
ence only among thb cannibals.
England No leader. Wolsolcy had no
experience in continental lighting ,
though his book entitled "System of
Field Maneuvers Bdst Adapted for Our
Troops to Meet a Continental Army , " is
calculated to make'ono believe that ho
had. General RoboKs is also hampered ;
lie has only fought against semi-barbaric
natives. ' '
Italy No leader 'thaUamolints to any
thing except the old Garibaldi General
Dosens. _

Wellington correspondent of the Birm

CHICAGO , Feb. 3. After a weak opening
and an early decline wheat was firm today
and closed Vic higher. May corn Is un
changed. May oats unchanged and pro
visions lower all around.
Wheat opened easy , with May ' . &c lower nl
CI'.Jc , and soon zold oft to Cltf The north
western rccclplH were largo. The clear
ances amounted to 2,803,000 b\i. , against
2,917,000 bu. on the previous Wilok. After
reaching Olc for May the market began to
advance , The Influences presented were
nearly all favorable to sellers , but there was
n feeling that seine persons werp buying
up considerable quantities of wheat quietly ,
and this Induced shorts to cover. The mar
ket ruled stronger In splto of the not Alto
gether favorable news , and the advance'con-
tinned slow but steady until the end and May
closed but % c from the top. May opened
at 44c , declined % c , advanced % c and re
acted Uc to the close nt 04fcc. .
In corn there was n very light specula
tive trade , the opening being especially dull
and the market all day was quiet and
featureless. A comparatively steady fooling
existed , values showing no material change.
The opening was Inclined to bo easy , duo
largely to a lack of Interest , but firmed up
later on , the price being helped by the ac
tion of wheat. The market then ruled ex
tremely quiet and closed with May but He
from the day's top figures.
In oats there was moro good buying than
of late , and n firm feeling most of the day.
The opening was easy at the decline for
May , but advanced ' /Jc and closed sloady
at % o from the top and at the same prices
as on yesterday. The fluctuations were en
tirely In sympathy with wheat.
Provisions opened firmer and prices for
pork advanced on the run of Jiogs ut the
yards being about 1,000 less than estimated
As soon as prices wore hammered down
enough to suit the bears they turned buyers ,
taking consldcrablo quantities of pork nt
the decline. Lard was also offered freely ,
with fair dealings at slightly lowerprices. .
Packers were sellers to a great extent and
two prominent Institutions were buyers.
At the close pork ruled steady ; lard firm
and at near the outsldo prices , and ribs were
weak nt the Inside prlcss. Compared with
last night pork Is 12V4c lower ; May lard 2' c
lower and May ribs lOc lower.
Estimated receipts for Monday : Wheat ,

The trade In cattle during the past wcolc
lias been about as unsatisfactory OH It well
could be. Starting nut about steady on Man-
lay , there was a sharp decllno on Tuesday ,
nd on Wednesday prices were down to bed
rock , by long odds the lowest In over u year.
Dn account of the exceptionally light re
ceipts during tlio latter half of the week ,
there was a reaction , and cloblng prices fortieth
tioth boot steers and butchers' and canncrs'
stock were about the same as at thu close of
last week.
From a porusnl of the above statistics It Is
svldont that the low prices for cattle now
prevailing uro not caused by heavy receipts
it the leading markets. The fact Is people
ire not eating as much meat for economical
reasons , and In consequence the slaughterers
need fewer cattlo. A loading buyer for ono
} f the blggost local slaughterers says : "Thu
present depression In the cattle market Is
luo entirely to the big falling off In the do-
narul for meat and not to any oversupply of

nnd the quality was pretty much tlm mime a :
It has been nil wc'ck , that Is only fair. A

being run In now , their owners having ! >
como discouraged nt the outlook , and ihlr
does not help matters nny. For the past
three days receipts haVe hardly nvor.igotl
1,000 head of cattle n day nnd In conso-
( | ucnco the im-ngnr offerings today were all
wanted , In fact , local houses needed thfin sc
bad that they did nut glvo outsiders n show ,
Trndn was brisk nnil prices averaged hlronn
"
to a dime higher on nil grades. As "usual ,
thcru were no choice beeves hero , but fair
'
to very good steers , weighing from
1.010 to 1,282 Ibs. , sold readily nl
from $ : i.30 to $3,63. I'oor lo fair
grades anil odd lots went nt from 13 ti )
? 3,2i ! and mlxi-d stuff down nrouml $2.i)0 ) nml
$2.75. The trade was brisk throughout nml
long before noon the pens were cleared ,
The firmness developed during the past few
days was duo entirely to the meager sup
plies and not to nny Improvement In the de
mand from any < | tmrtur.
The cow market was about the same ns
the trade In fat cuttle. In fact , there has
been moro than the usual amount of sym
pathy between the markets nil week. There
were not over fifteen loads on sale today and
sales Included poor to prlmo cows ami
heifers at from $1.2.'i to $3 , fair to good
butchers , cows selling largely at
from $2.20 to $2.70. Calves were In
good demand nt steady to strong
prices , common heavy to choice , vnal stock
selling nt from $2 to $5.60. The supply ol
rough stock was limited nnd did not present
n very extensive nssortment. Prices nver-
ngcd up nbout steady , common to fair bulls ,
oxen and stags selling at from $1,03 to ? 2.S5.
Tlib stocker nnd feeder I ratio wns rather
limited all week. Receipts were light , and
the demand from all sources was of the
most Indifferent character. Regular dealora
managed to keep prices up pretty well on
account of the rather' limited offerings , but
the general tone to the tr'ado Ims been
rnther wiMk on account of tlio demoralized
condition of the fnt cuttle ' market. Busi
ness today , as Is nlways the case on n Sat
urday , was dull. Hardly any' trading was
going on at nil , but price. ! generally were not
far from steady. Good to ch6ee [ feeders are
quoted nt $3@3.BO ; fair to good'Jit $2.70ig3.00
nnd lighter , commoner grades nt from $2.70
down. .
There has been no material change In
the general situation In hogs nnd there
Is still a discrepancy of something like
50o per hog between the hog nnd- provi
sions prices. This In the case of most of
our local killers Is evened up by their
jobbing trade , but the business of- packing
exclusively Is n losing game at present nnd
has been most of the time during the past
year.
. According to the Cincinnati Price Cur
rent's figures : "Tho total .packing In the
west from November 1 to January 31 is
3,815,000 against 3,900,000 , a year ago de
crease , 85,000 hogs. The packing last year
In February wns very moderate. , averaging
about 180,000 hogs per week. In order to
reach the estimate offered tHrso weeks
ago , a total of 300,000 In excess of lust year ,
there must bo an nverago gain of 100,000
per week during February , or an average
packing of 280,000 per week , which may be
regarded as quite possible , and not Improb
able. Even with this enlargement the
total packing would be small , and far short
of nny recent season other than last
year. "
Receipts have been considerably heavier
this week both here and elsewhere , and In
consequence the range of prices has been
lower than last week. They have been so
high here , however , lOc to loc higher than
at other Missouri river points , that eastern
shippers have given this market th3 go by.
and done all their buying either up at Sioux
City or at Kansas City. Local slaughterers
have used every hog- offered here this veefc.
With lower markets east and a fair sup
ply here prices averaged about a nickel
lower today on all grades. Local houses
were practically the only buyers , and they
started In paying $5.15 to $5.20 for fair to
good hogs of all weights , and J5.10 for the-
commoner grades. This was a shade to 5c
lower than Friday. On bad reports from
both hogs and provisions in Chicago the
market weakened further , and late trading
was mostly at $3.10 for falr-to SJod hogs of
all weights , or a big oc lower. The close
was very weak at the extreme low point of
the day and n few loads were left In
.the pens. The top today wns fo.25 for one
load of choice light stuff , but ppwticaliy the
hogs nil sold nt a range of from $ " > .10 to
$5.20 , the big bulk of them at $3.15. On Fri
day and on last Saturday the bulk of the
trading was at $5.15 and $5.20.
There wns no fresh receipts "ot sheep to
day and nothing of nny consequence hero to
make a market. Local houses have been
pretty well supplied this week and were In
no urgent need of stock. Prices were nom
inally weak at a decllno of from lOc to 15c
from last week's quotations. Quotations were
as follows : Fair to good natives , $2.75 ©
3.40 ; fair to good westerns , $2.23@3.25 ; com
mon nnd block sheep , $ t,50(3'2.15 ( ; good to
