MONDAY. NOVEMBER 13. NINE TO FOURTEEN. GOVERNMENT INSURANCE. Ufe Policies and Endowments Granted by Nation in Belgium.

people in this country art. aware that the paternal government of Belgium does a general Ufe insurance business, issuing both straight life policies as well as term or endowment poli? cies. It goes further and contracts to pay an? nuities to such of its citizens as desire them. This life insurance and annuity business is rraff'-i upon the governmental postal savings tank system. Almost identically the same ma? chinery operates all three.

While it is not at all likely that the United States will ever go into the life insurance and annuity business, our recent insurance scandals and the consequent suggestion of national regu? lation of insurance concerns lend a peculiar in? terest just now to the Belgian governmental system of insurance and postal deposits. UDder this singular financial system the poor? est individual in the little kingdom can secure a moderate life insurance policy or annuity by the payment of trifling annual premiums, or de? rive interest on his small deposits in the postal savings bank. The system, paternal to an extreme, was adopted to encourage national thrift, and has fully vindicated its purpose. There are few or no beggars ir. Belgium.

It works smoothly and apparently is without a flaw. Ko fiscal corrup? tion has developed in connection with the sys? tem, complex and peculiar as it is. It has been In practice upward of half a century. The balance sheet of the Belgian National Bank on December 31. 1903, the last report within reach, showed deposits to the credit of the three institutions of approximately $7 a hmd of the total population of Belgium.

The aggregate is much greater now. The most important branch, of course, is the postal savings system, well worth a study. Every possible facility To make, deposits is af? forded the public. They are made in the post offices and bank agencies in sums as low as 20 cents. More than $905 cannot be deposited in any period of two weeks without special authori? zation.

The interest rate is fixed periodically by the government. At the close of the year the interest is added to the principal and begins to draw interest its. if. Each depositor receives a bank book free of charge. Special adhesive deposit stamps are used, which are receipts for money paid in.

and are pasted in this bank book. In it, also, are entered calculations of interest, and all other transactions between the postal savings bank and the depositor. These books are called in for the annual cal? culation of interest. To prevent individual ex? travagance, depositors are prohibited from hy? pothecating these bank books without a special permit. After receiving his book the new de? positor can have entries made at any postoffice in the kingdom.

Deposits may also be made by postage stamps up to $1 93 a month. To en? courage deposits by children and the very poor, postmen in the rural districts carry with them the facilities for the purpose. To get a book the depositor signs an agree? ment that he understands the rules, that he will accept no receipt for deposits except the ad? hesive stamps, etc When a book is lost a dupli? cate Is furnished under certain formalities. All postal officials are instructed to encourage savings deposits. AVithdrawais of funds may be made at any application within fifteen days alter he last deposit.

The book must be produced nd the transaction recorded over the signature the'postmaster. The depositor must be iden? tified, if at a postoffice other than the one issu? ing the book. For withdrawing sums between and $193, one month's notice must be given; for $193 to $579. two months, and for sums above six months. There are other minute rules, but on the whole the system Is simple.

The depositor can have his deposits converted into Belgian bonds, and on notice to him the postal savings bank can convert all sums more than $579 Into such bonds. The management is a general council of twen? ty-four members and a president, a board of six directors and a general manager. All are ap? pointed by the King for six years. The general manager Is subject to dismissal, and may not be a member of cither house of Parliament. The system is constantly growing in favor.

This postal savings system is no new thing. It has been greatly discussed In this country and Its adoption urged in Congress. The Belgian life annuity and life insurance adjuncts are something unique. Yet they are apparently successfully conducted to the en? tire satisfaction of King Leopold's subjects. There are no data, however, the ex? tent of their operations.

By the required pay? ments into the government annuity fund, per? sons can secure for themselves or the benefit of others life annuities that cannot be seized for debt, and moreover secure the payment of the capital paid jn for the annuity to the ben? eficiarios' heirs after death. Payments for annuities cart be made nt all national bank agencies ami branches of the savings bank. The largest annuity paid by government on such deposits is per annum; the smallest, one franc (19.3 cents). Annuities do not begin until the age of fifty, and are payable annually. Annuities to begin Immediately on the payment of the necessary capital may be arranged for.

It can be ar? ranged so that the whole capital goes to the fund after death, which gives the annuitant a larger annuity A person depositing $193 at the age of twenty-five would receive annually after fifty. if contracted to begin at fifty-five. at sixty, at sixty-fl w. tUwJBft In connection with this annuitv fund is an Insurance fund. Both straight life and the endowment policy may be contracted for.

En? dowments l.e made payable at the end of ten. fifteen, twenty or twenty-five years, or for a period ending at fifty-five, sixty, or sixty-five y-ars of age. The contractor must be twenty and the beneficiary at least twenty-one ar.d not over fifty-five. The largest sum to De paid any one person on a policy Is An annuai premium of $1930 from a person tnlrty-flve years old leave- his heirs as follows: contracted to pay until flftv-five. sixty-five, ..83.63.

A person of thirty-five, paying annually $19.30 for an en? dowment, receives at certain ages these sums: fifty-five. at sixty. at sixty-five, $605 This is apparently simple, cheap and reliable There is doubtless a small profit accruing to the government for doing the busi? ness, but it must be infinitesimal. It Is palpa arranged In the.interest of the policyhold and not of the officials. Whether life Insurance by government could be adapted to conditions In country is the attention of students of the system la circumstances.

The successful Belgian Practice for fifty years demonstrates that the Policy is feasible among European popula MORAL TBAH-TNG IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS. Offers Two Prises fcr Essays on This Subject.

CUSTOM HOUSE STATUES. Work on Four Imposing Groups Well Under Way. A busy scpne Is presented daily In the studio of Plccirllll Brothers, in East The Bronx, where sculptors are executing statuary for the new Custom House, at Bowling Green. For the main entrance of the Custom House there are four imposing groups by Daniel C. French? "Europe," "Asia," "Africa" and The of the head of "Europe" are well blocked out.

On one sido are allegorical ships, and on the other a draped figure of Only the lower portion of the group is blocked out. The central figure of the group, em? blematic of slavery. Is a slave child, with a tiger near It. "Africa" is represented by young negress. At one side Is a draped figure of "Darkness, and at the other stands a lion.

The model of "America" was only recently fin? ished, and the work in marble will soon begin. The young Republic Is represented by a young girl, and standing on either side is a genius and a group of Indians. It may be a year before all the groups are finished. There are also two heroic statues by F. Edwin and "Greece." Only the lower STATUARY FOR TITB NEW OH? PRESBYTERIAN MINSTER.

Enthusiasm Aroused for Justice Harlans National Plan. The Tribune "Washington. Nov. Harlan has met with gratifying success in his project for the Presbyterian Church to erect In Washington a "cathedral church" which shall prove a monu? ment to the growth and progress of Presbyteri anism in the United States. It is less than a year since the justice addressed prominent Presby? terians, both clergymen and laymen, throughout the country, outlining the project and offering to devote such time and attention as his Judicial duties permitted to the furtherance of the un? dertaking, provided it met with their approval.

In his original letter the justice called atten? tion to the fact that no single parish church, de? pendent on the usual sources of revenue of such a church, could accomplish for Fresbyter lanlsm as much as could be effected by a great monumental church, handsomely endowed an! designed to become a religious and intellectual centre for adherents of that faith throughout the country. He dwelt on the fact that the Epis? copalians, appreciating that a great cathedral would be singularly appropriate in the nation'3 rOM HOUSE AT BOWLING GREEN.

I Washington. Nov. country is hearlni i greaf deal of late about the progress or lack progress and prospects of the Panama Cana and but very little about the really greater am more important canal enterprise which New rork has undertaken. Colonel T. W.

Symons, of the corps of en grineers, U. S. who has been "loaned" Congress to New-York to look after this work is back in his permanent horno in for a time, and when seen by a Tribune cor respondent reported that actual work on thi had begun under several large contract md was progressing favorably. All the con tracts that can be let under existing legislativ authority will be so let by the time the legisla meets in January. It is hoped and expectet that the legislature will make pro.ision sc tha from to $50.000.000 of contracts cai bo let in the year 1906.

The entire work shouli be got under contract in the next two years, si that it can be completed at as early a date a possible. It cannot be done any too soon, Colone says. If New-York and the North At antic States wish to retain their commercla prestige in the great Northwest. The commer tendency in the Northwest is toward tb Suif and the South Atlantic, and this tendenc; only be counteracted by the building of th great barge canals through New-York, practi extending the navigation of the Grea Lakes to the sea. The bitterly complained congestion of rail traffic at Buffalo and othe points all this fall is a clear indication of need of this canal ai3d Its early completion.

New-York's new canal system will embrac ibout four hundred and fifty miles of canal, V. feet deep and with locks 45 feet wide and 3b feet long, connecting the Hudson River nea rroy and Albany with Lakes Erie, Ontario The cost of the work is estimated at $101,000, Contrary to the common understanding these canals not simply enlargement of th present Erie, Oswego and Champlain canals. Fo not more than one-fourth of the entire distanc does the new routes coincide with the old, fo three-fourths or more the canals follow nev routes in rivers, lakes and the bottoms of rive valleys, which were impracticable for the oh towpath canal. Colonel Syraons says that all the work on th canal, the making of surveys, plans, speciflca tlons. as well as the work of construction superintendence.

Inspection, Is going oi with remarkable smoothness and freedom fron trouble or interference of any kind. All th engineers in charge are very able men. who ar skilled and experienced in canal work, and li this New-York Is most fortunate. PORTION OF MAN'S BODY FOUND Head. Arms and Legs Point to Murder.

Cleveland, Nov. one of the city dump last evening a human torso, including th thorax and shoulders, but devoid of head, arm and legs, was discovered by children. Th identity of the body Is shrouded In mystery. There was not a shred of clothing attached the torso, which was turned over to the polic and removed to the morgue. The most strlk Ing discovery was a bullet wound in the righ side, which the coroner thinks caused death.

The post mortem held by Coroner Slegelstei showed that the body was that of a murdere man. It also developed that the body had bee embalmed. The theory that the body had bet-: cut up in a medical school and afterward hauler to the was scouted by the coronet The head and arms had evidently been pullei or roughly cut off. The coroner says the find forms portion body of a man whose weight was probabl As -o Ida age It was uot possibl had already procured a site and taken other steps toward the erection of such an edi fice; that the Roman Catholics had undertaken a similar project, and had. moreover, established a great university in Washington, and that tha i Methodists were preparing to follow the same course, and he urged that the Presbyterians this country should have in the capital city a church which should be to them what St.

Paul's Cathedral is to the Episcopalians of England and what St. Giles of Edinburgh is to the Pres? byterians of Scotland. The sugg-estion of Justice has been enthusiastically received and he is in receipt of letters from all parts of the country warmly indorsing the plan and promising assistance and co-operation. Among these is a gratify? ing letter from the Rev. Dr.

Patton, president of Princeton Theological Seminary, who says: I have been intending for some time to write I to you in reply to the letter which you were kind enough to send me regarding the proposed cathedral church In Washington. I cannot say that I have any practical suggestions to make, but I am unwilling to deny myself the pleasure of saying to you that I heartily ap? prove of your suggestion, and that I wish you great success in carrying it out. I am sure that you will find throughout cur Church a sympathetic response. Presbyterianism needs something correspond? ing to the cathedral system of England. There should be in our great cities and pre-eminent 1 ly in the capital of the nation, a church so well equipped, so Independent of the ordinary sources of revenue, and so adapted to the do? ing of work beyong the requirements of a parish that within its walls and under its roof the best men of the nation and the best men of the Church could, from time to time, give expression to their mature thinking of the great themes of Christianity.

Is there any place in America to-day where i one can go and be sure to hear such uplift ing sermons as one may expect to hear under the dome of St. Paul's? Is there a place In our land, is there a need in our day for ser? mons somewhat different from those which are prepared week by week to meet the exigen? cies of an ordinary parish? I think there is. 1 And if the Presbyterian Church snail provide such a place and open the way for the preach ing of such sermons she will, in my judgment, do a great service to the cause of Christian truth. I am not looking at this matter from the standpoint of denominational pride. I am i considering it in regard to what I consider a great intellectual and because our church Is broad, liberal and possessed of a catholicity i which does not unchurch those who belong to other communions than our own I believe that the door of opportunity is especially open to her for the doing of a much needed and most important work in the direction indicated by your letter.

Another important letter has been addressed to the justice by the Rev. Dr. van Dyke, in which he says: The importance of the idea which you present i impresses me immediately. It would be a great thing, beyond doubt, to have the broad, con structive features of Christianity in its Presby? terian form (which is, of course, that of a splrit ual republic under a divine headship) presented 1 fully and powerfully in the city which is to be 1 more and more the centre of our national life. 1 Not only as a place of worship, but also as a source of radiating work, such a church would 1 be of commanding influence.

The part whicr has been played by St. Giles since its renovation in the religious life of Edinburgh and of Scot land Is an illustration of what ought to be hopee for if such a centril Presbyterian church coulc i be established in Washington. I i The Secretary of Agriculture, who Is an ardeni i supporter of the Presbyterian Church, says, 2 i cordial communication to Justice Harlan: i The influence that such a church would exeri upon the national capital would unquestion? ably be good. Other denominations are wiselj 1 planning along the same lines. Presbyterian ism will have a strong hold on the i people as long as we have a representative gov ernment; and that, I hope, will be as long ai men need government.

Every denominatioi should have its watchmen here, men of tm highest intelligence, able to speak wisely vmi i regard to public tendencies and fearless in in? expression of correct sentiments regarding pu? lie affairs, as well as industrious, in 1 out of season, in the work of elevating humanity 1 Mr. Justice Harlan will now seek the appro bation of the General Assembly of the Church this countrv, with the indorsement of the ington Presbytery- Before doing so. er, I will endeavor to formulate a concrete plan and he is confident that the ap proval of the General Assembly will accorded, although he says frankly that i i absence of such approval he wi.uld l-ih'' in fnrtheranre of the MEX-S matsra Distinctive Evening Apparel for Men Tuxedo Suits (silk lined) $22.50 to $48.00 Dress Suits (silk lined) $25.00 to $50,00 Honor the edict.
