MONDAY EVENING,
ployers subject to the workmen's com
pensation act of 1915, begins in all
sections of the State t#-morrow. This
State-wide activity in liability insur
ance will follow the announcement by
the State Workmen's Insurance Board
of the rates as approved by the Insur
ance Department.
With the workmen's compensation
act going into effect January 1, ap
proximately 200,000 employers in i
Pennsylvania must, before that date,
protect their employes by compen
sation insurance.
The approved rates which must be
observed by the authorized stock and
mutual insurance companies are based
on each SIOO of annual payroll and
must be applied only for coverage of
compensation liability. The State in
surance fund is allowed a 10 per cent.
| reduction under the rates as approved
j for stock companies.
The manual containing the approval
rates is the first to be issued in this
| State and contains a number of rulings
j regulating the writing of compensa
tion insurance.
Plant Inspections
Industrial plants which install safe
guards to protect their employes from
injury will be given schedule inspec
tions by inspectors from the Depart
ment of Labor and Industry, and the
central rating bureau to determine per
centages of reduction from the ap
proved rates in recognition of the pre
cautions that have been adopted within
such plants.
Rates for coal mining have not been
approved by the Insurance Depart
ment. Additional data on the hazard
. in mining is being collected and com
j piled and these rates will probably be
available for distribution within a
I week. ,
The manual which has already been
, forwarded to the authorized insur-
I ance carriers, including the State fund,
designate the division of pavrolls and
the methods which should be used In
underwriting the different hazards of
all risks.
Principal operation of a plant Is the
governing classification of its risk.
Subdivision will not be permitted,
unless separate and distinct enter
prises are conducted hy the same em
ployer without Interchange of labor.
Exceptions are made for executive
: officers, clerical and office employes,
salesmen, collectors and messengers,
draftsmen, drivers and drivers' help
ers, chauffeurs and chauffers' helpers,
blasting, stamping operations, railroad
hazard and extraordinary alterations
and repairs.
The minimum premium that will be
charged by stock and mutual com
panies is $lO, except- on contractors'
risks, for which It is S2O. Blasting
operations require an anditlonal mini
mum of $26. The minimum premium
for a compensation policy on a private
residence or farm is $6.

fications of occupations are the follow

Court Gives Wife Right
to Beat Husband 2 Weeks
Special to The Telegraph
Kansas City, Mo., Dec. 13.—With
the court's permission, Mrs. Amelia
Brasher may use a broom, skillet, flat
iron or any other handy weapon in
carrying out Judge J. M. Brady's de
cree that she he permitted to heat her
husband in any way she desires for
the next two weeks.
Such was the decision when Perry
Brasher was in police court in Kan
sas City, Kan., charged by his wife
with disturbance of the peace anil as
saulting her.
Mrs. Brasher testified her husband
had an ungovernable temper, threw
his Sunday dinner off the table and
struck her for correcting their child.
Brasher said he merely pushed his
wife.
i "The way to correct such fellows as
i you," said the judge, "Is to let you
I tajce some of your own medicine. I
am going to give your wife permls
| slon—and 1 want her to use her prlvi
' lege—to beat you up in any way she
| pleases for the next two weeks; then I
I want both of you to report to me.
We will see how it works out."
