Manning sent the following letter to Fitz Hugh McMaster, iniur ance commissioner, and John L. Mc Laurin, state warehouse commis sioner: "I am daily receiving inquiries from all parts of the state asking me how fire insurance can be obtained under the existing laws, and in view of the withdrawal of certain of the compa nies. 'The public is deeply interested and is entitled to any assistance that can be given. I desire this information In order that they may make their business arrangements. I ask that you will write me where and how the insurance can be obtained." Replies were received from Messrs. McLaurin and McMaster. Mr. MeMaster submitted a list of 18 companies, 12 of which he believed would continue to write insurance in South Carolina. and a list of 37 mutual fire insurance companies. Mr. MeLaurin replied that the firm of Samuels.

At a meeting of the executive com mittee of the South Carolina Ware house Association, the Laney-Odoin anti-con Iaet law was unqualifiedly in dors Asylum Repairs to Be Made. The supreme court issued a writ of mandamus requiring the comptroller general to issue warrants on the fund of $100,000 appropriated by the last .general assembly for repair work at the State Hospital for the insane. The opinion In the case was written by Chief Justice Gary and concurred iA by all of the associate justices. The actio'n to secure the appropria tion wvas brought by the board of re gents. The attorney. general held that the money could not be paid out by the comptroller general because the itemi of $100,000 was niot contain ed in the general appropriation bill and it was suggested that the matter be carried to the court for a decision. "The recaptiuletion of the various items ini the act, which provides for an approp~riationt of $418,000 to the hospital," says the decision, "also tends to show that it was the inter tion of the legislature to appropriate $318,000 for' maitenance and salaries and $100,000 for rebuilding, otherwise the item in the recap~itulation would have een only $318,000." Work on the proposed improve ments outlined by the board of re gents will be resunmed immnediately. C. Fred Williams, M. D., superinten dent, said that the plans call for' the completion of all male war'ds, the erection of a dining room for male pa tients, a central heating plant and the remodeling of several female wvards.

McLaurin -has given out a state mont in which he said' that "in antici pation of the action of the Southeast ern Underwriters' Association in get ting companies to withdraw from South Carolina, and especially the threats as to insuratice upon property upon which loans are* outstanding in ,the attempt to force- the calling of the loans," he went to New York and had made arrangements there which weie ample to take care of all such insur ance. He stated that he believes the number of the withdrawals by companies from this state has been exaggerated and that after this ex. citement is over it will be found that there are plenty of companies in South Carolina to do the busine;s. "But if any one desires to place in surance, which It necessary on ac count of the present situation as the result of cancellations or refusals to renew; if they will write to me I will place the insurance in New York through the channels which I have arranged," he said. "The policies," said Mr. McLaurin, "will be written in comnanies whose standing is acceptable to the life in surance or mortgage companies mak Ing loans in South Carolina. I wish to reiterate emphatically that if any one is threatened with the calling of loans or in any other manner to the detriment of the business interests of South Carolina by the cancellation or failure to renew fire insurance poli cies, I can place this insurance in some of the best companies in the United States, and this talk about calling loans is mere moonshine. "I have been flooded with letters from insurance agents requesting that I furnish them the names of the com panies in order that they may form connections with them. I desire to say that I have not felt called upon to seek insurance connections for agents of companies which are with. drawing 'or may withdraw, but that I am simply seeking to protect the business intere1t'- of the people of Soutlh Carolina from threatened dis. arrangement by the Southeastern Un derwriters' Association and have per fected arrangements to this end."
