Parkin, who has filled that office for the past five years, is 'candidate, and Judson K.

Rev. James F. Hower. CITY FIREMAN RATED AS HOST HAZARDOUS JOB Council Given Figures As to What Law In surance Is Going to Cost. Before deciding for the city whether it will carry its own risks or buy a policy of protection in a stock insurance company to meet risks with the work Ingmen's compensation act, councilmen said yesterday that they will await a.

report from every city bureau as to the accidents during the past ten years which would have been compensible. if th xresent act had' been in force. With such a report at hand.council would be able to tell from past' experiences whether the city, under ordinary condi tions, would "spend: more in insurance premiums or in payment of accident claims. Council entered into 'a. lengthy discussion yesterday of the iprovisions, of the state act which is effective upon the corporation of the city of Seranton as upon every other corporation or employe in the state, regardless of the number of employes or extent of business.

Tle only difference paid by the state law to the city or other public corporation is that all levying bodies have the privilege of insuring against the compensation risk, or carrying the risk as part of the tax burden. HotchkiM Quotes figure. Frank Hotchkiss, of the John Broadbent agency in this city, selling stock insurance, had a conference with the council in which Col. David J. Davis, city solicitor, participated.

Mr. Hotchkiss had secured a list of, employes of the city, and he gave to council an estimate of the amount of the premium sufficient" to include all city employes. The premium he estima ted at $15,506, covering ah annual payroll, including all employes, of $760,000. The premium, he explained, will not have to be paid at once, but. can "be arranged to be met quarterly.

City firemen are the most hazardous of all risks, according to the classification, for the rate is $4.62 per $100 of annual payroll. Even a 'policeman isn't regarded as engaging in such dangerous calling, for the policeman's rate is $2.40 on the same basis.
