The Connecticut Fire Insurance Company. (From the Hartford Evening Post.)


At the annual meeting of the stockholders of this Company, the old board of directors was re-elected. The usual dividend was declared and the annual statement submitted. The showing for the year, the first under the administration of President J. D. Browne, was exceedingly satisfactory. The business has been very largely increased over that of any preceding year, and the net result in the way of increase of surplus has been nearly $50,000.00. The Company ranks among the best in the United States. While the officers have adopted, and strictly adhere to a conservative policy, no opportunity is lost to advance its best interests. The great increase of its assets shows that it is among the progressive companies, and the large number of new policies written during the year indicates very clearly that it is a favorite with the insuring public.


The Connecticut Fire Insurance Company. (From the Hartford Courant.)


Having for many years past enjoyed the advantages of management of the most sound and conservative character, the Connecticut is looked upon as one of the strongest and safest companies in the business. It is the third oldest of the Hartford companies, and there are only four or five companies in the United States that have a larger capital. It stands among the dozen or so American companies having the largest assets, and in everything that goes to make a company sound and worthy of the most implicit confidence the Connecticut ranks as one of the foremost of existing organizations.


The Connecticut Fire Insurance Company. (From the Hartford Times.)


This Company comes to the front with a statement which must be very satisfactory to the stock and policy-holders. The premium receipts have increased more than 30 per cent., and its income from its invest- ments shows a marked advance over any previous year. The administration of the affairs of the Company in the hands of the present officers has been conservative, and at the same time progressive.

THE PHENIX INSURANCE COMPANY OF HARTFORD, CONN.


ITS HISTORY.


The Company was organized June 21, 1854, on a Capital of $100,000. On the 28th of June, 1854, the Capital was increased by subscription to $200,000; and again increased June 16, 1859, by subscription, to $400,000, and on the 7th of April, 1864, was further increased by subscription to $600,000. The losses of this Company in the Chicago fire, which occurred in October, 1871, amounted to $937,219.23, and to this may be added the losses by forest fires which occurred on the same day in Wisconsin and Michigan, amounting to $50,176.73. making a total loss to the Company on that memorable day, of $987,395.96, which was a little more than 164 per cent. of its Capital Stock. A blow so serious required prompt action to save the valuable franchise and business of the Company. At a meeting of the Stockholders, held December 1, 1871, by a unanimous vote the Capital was reduced to $300,000, and at a later meeting, held the same day, they voted to restore the Capital to $600,000 by subscription, which was accordingly done. July 1, 1876, the Capital Stock was again increased, the Stockholders paying in $400,000, making the Cash Capital $1,000,000; and in March, 1881, a still further increase was decided on, and the Stockholders at once paid in $1,000,000, making the Capital Stock of the Company


$2,000,000.00.


Regarding this latter increase the " Hartford Courant," in its issue March 8, 1881, said:


" This important movement is in direct accord with the drift of the fire insurance business at this time and will not be questioned as a wise and timely step. Insurers are looking for large capital and strong companies, and have learned the folly of relying upon the little companies which go to pieces under just the strain against which insurance has been taken. The increase of the PHOENIX to $2,000,000 makes it rank in capital with the third fire insurance company of the United States, and lifts it from a position of great importance to one of the very highest in the country. And it has earned its way there by a course of energy and honesty. With its capital doubled to $2,000,000, and its $1,100,000 of surplus undis- turbed, the Phoenix doubles its already firm claim to the full confidence of the business community and will undoubtedly reap due reward from its bold and enterprising movement. It is more than the simple action of one company. It is an important movement for the whole financial interest of Hartford, for it tends to bring this place still more to the front as the great insurance city, and to strengthen its claim to be the center of the insurance business."


The gross Premium receipts for first year of Company's business were $38,487.41


The gross Premium receipts for year 1881 were 1,706,288.20 The total Premium Income of the Company since organization amounts to 26,020,771.26 15,367,943.67


And it has paid for losses the immense sum of
