INSUUAJfCE.
Tin- Allemania Insurance Company, of Clevc-
Ohio, send us the following statement of
l:-;r jssets and liabilities and the terms on which
t;,. v are settling with holders of their poliviei.
a-'mi as we are able to judge, tho statement
in- to be complete, and in tho main is, per
l.ap-.tM an unreasonable basis of settlement,
j total liabilities of the company arc as ful-
:ii in Chicago.

Tin* assets of tlic company are stated ut

in twct Ti :c and as per cent wotild be something
ever Ma.ooo. which the company claim they
have as a margin to cover contingencies.

f. 'rto ilie Sim.ys) due to policy-holders for uu
allied premium*. This amount is probably duo
t- fi«m 1 j,(>oo to 20,000 policy-holders,
in all parts of the country. The amount due to
each w<>ald probably not average over $7. a sum
r-o .-iin.il that a large proportion of those to
v iioiii it is due will probably never trouble them
s. 1 vc- ;o send their claims to the company’s oHlce
in Cleveland to collect them. Hut even if half of
ti!i-tu should do so, it would stilt leave a large
•nmuint equal to s or 10 per cent on the company’s
b-ses here. We do not Ray that the company
safely act on this presumption and pay
>m>re Ilian 37 i>or cent, but simply make tills
ictereneeto what will probably be their actual
exjK-tseuee. Of the $509,100 of its Chicago losses,
*IOI.OO have been settled at 35 per cent, leaving
to be settled yet. Of this remaining
amount the claimants lor $120,000 have agreed to
settle at 35 per cent.
ItKAT. ESTATE.
The Cincinnati Ouzcttc, referringto the influence
'.•m i ted by the great railroad corporations whose
liner centre in Chicago, says:
Fur more than ten years they have contributed to
pin- growth ol Cliicagy. They have invested large
amounts of money in that city, ami precisely to that
t vt<-]it Ijsivo bts-n iutete-'lvd lu tho prosperity of the
eily. Accordingly, when there were favors to grant,
additional railroad facilities to be bestowed, new chan*
mls ol commerce to be opened, money to bo invented,
thicagu wa.-the favored place. The investments that
b.td Incii iiij.lc theio turn to bo protected amt (oaten*!.
Thus Hu- capitalist* of New York aud Hostou, ami
other KaM**m cities, aided laigelv in building up CIU
-4 au-. ami now. when tLe day of her trial has come, the
same men tliat worked to build, worked to rvilore.”
TJu* Cazrttr Ims undoubtedly taken the correct
x low of the situation. There is no other point ia
the Tuited Slates to the sustaining of which, us a
«.oilmen iul cm|»ormm. so large an amount of rail*
road capital is pledged. There is also in tile pres
ent liiiiiiicial situation another element, which at
one time might have been considered one of
weakness, tmi is now in fact one of strength. We
rei.-r to the debts due to Eastern corporations and
Eastern capitalists, aud secured by mortgages on
n al c.-tate. For the lenders of these vast amounts
i h.-re i« no course but to do all in their power to
Misiain the value of real estate by the loan of
turther ninouuls to assist in rebuilding what was
d. -droved, thus helping to re-establish the security
tor their own loans.
