GREATLY PERTURBED.
OPERATORS OF TAXIS. INSURANCE DEVELOPMENTS. (By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.) NAPTER, Thursday. A large number of Napier ann Hastings taxi operators, chiefly ownerdrivers, are concerned in the developments regarding the Public Mutual Insurance Company. The/ are greatly disturbed over the course of events, which, according to their representatives, may threaten to drive some of them out of business. "We find that, although we have paid our premiums to the company, we now have to take out policies elsewhere if we wish 'to be covered, and we are also being required to meet levies," said one of them. "It simply means that if we are forced to pay the levy some of us will have to go out of business." One Hastings operator has received a demand for payment of the levy amounting to £150, while the majority are for amounts from £15 upwards.
