PHILADELPHIA CUSTOMS
RECEIPTS FALL OFF
Loss of More Than Three Million
Dollars Yearly.
Customs receipts made public today nt
this port show a decrease of Jw7.S03.Sl for
the month of September, as compared
with tho same month of tho preceding
year. This makes the decline in custom
duties here J3.S.'6,S0tj.55 for the rdnu
months of the current year against tho
Bame period of last year. The total re
ceipts for this year to date are $12,352,
Si7 8-. Last year they totaled $15,579,
311.11. The greatest loss was In I'eburary.
This was caused by the holding In bond
ed warehouses of enormous quantities oi
sugar In order tu obtain tho advantages
of no duty which went into effect on
M irch 1. Despite the lower duties under
the tariff law, March, April, May and
June showed lucicases In collections. Au
gust and July figures declined because
shipping was put at a standstill by the
outbreak of the Kuropean war and fur
ther declines are expected until the war
Is ended. The figures for each month

appointment of a receiver was made to
day in the Court of Chancery by Ilus

the company has no money with which
to meet Its pay roll nnd nsks for a de
cree of Insolvency.

INSURANCE AGENTS
CONTRAST BATTLE
AND PEACE RISKS
Use Mortality Tables to
Show That Chances of
Death in War Are Not Ex
cessive. Life Insurance companies, reading each
day of tho enormous loss of llfo 011 Eu
ropean battlefields, seo striking analogies
In tho chances of soldiers eurvlvlng bat
tles and tho chances of men at various
ages to live through certain periods.
The American Experience. Table of Mor
tality, which Is used as a basis for mak
ing ot llfo Insuranco premiums, shows
that between tho ngos ot 49 and 63 deaths
number 65.C per cent, out of every 1000
men In times of peace. ThlB represents
exactly tho total loss ot life at the bat
tle of Gettysburg, which Was considered
tho bloodiest fight ot the Civil War.
In other words, It Is pointed out by tho
New York Llfo Insuranco Company, each
soldier who went Into battle at Gettys
burg had the samo chance of surviving
that a man 49 years old now hns of liv
ing to bo 3 years. At the battle of
Antletnm, the Federal loss was 39,7 per
1000 men. Those who went Into that hat
tlo had the samo chance of coming out
allvo ns a man now 40 years old has of
living to bo 44. At tho battlo of Chlck
nmauga the death rate In the Union
army wns 47.6 per 1000 men, which, In
the opinion of the compnny, is equiva
lent to tho peace risk of n man now 23
years old living to bo 29. At Shlloh the
loss was 42.2 per 1000 men, equivalent to
tho peace risk of a. man living from 30
to 35.
Taking tho battles of tho Civil "War as
a basis, Insurance actuaries have fig
ured out a table showing tho battlo death
rate and tho equivalent peace risk at
various ages. It follows:
