UNOFFICIAL C.I.D.
Sequel to Fire Conspiracy Revelations. STOP BOGUS CLAIMS. LONDON, August 29. As a consequence of the recent fire conspiracy case, London insurance companies have appointed a secret committee of senior officials to form an unofficial criminal investigation department of the insurance world for the purpose of stopping bogus claims. The "Daily Herald" learns that clues discovered during the recent case led detectives to suspect the existence of several more fire-raising organisations. If the inquiries result in a prosecution, the charge sheet will be one of the most sensational seen in an English Court, but tlie next step is likely to be the launching ol a case against a group of defendants outside London. Meanwhile, the fire-raisers are frightened, and it is practically certain that the deliberate burning of premises has ceased for the time being.
