'^-i^. The fund to be created will be called ^' The -Employes Tffsuranco f'und," and will bo formed by four-weekly contributions by the employes, to be deducted from their pay in the sad^e way as is now done under th^ present system, and according to the revised rateg which are printed at the foot of this Circular. The Grand Trunk. Eailway Company will supplement the amount so appropriated by an equal donation from the funds of- the Company, , * 3. By agreement with the medical m^i, along the line of Eailway, the employes who contribute to this fund will also iri future, whilst suffering frojn bodily disability,cai:^ed by accidental injury ,be entitled to receive for a reasonable period the best medical advice within reach, the cost of which will be charged against the Fund. 4. The following provisions of thfc existing contract. wifh the Travelers' Insurance Company are applicable to the new arrangement, and all claims, made upon the Fund will be adjusted strictly in accor^iince therewith : . " Any IoB8 or loMes occurring under this arrangement shall be payable within a reasonable time after good ■and sufScientproofthat the insured under the proTisionspfthe arrangement shall hare sustained bodily injuries ' effected by violent and accidental means within the intent and meaning of this arrangement and the cenditi'ons herein contained and such injuries shall have occasioned the death of the insured within three calendar v months.afler the happenidj^ thereof, or if the Insured shall sustain bodily injuries as fforesaid, which shall independently of all other causes immediately and totally disable him from the prosecution of any and eTejy kind of business, then, on satisfactory proof of such injuries and disability^ there shall be paid forthwith to the insured, an indemnity for the loss of time sustained by him in consequence of disability as aforesaid, at a sum per week to be determined as hereinafter specified, provided however that such indemnity shall be paf able only for the period of continuous total disability immediately following the accident and injuries, ^ ' . but in no case for a period exceeding Twenty-six consecutive weeks. ' * ^"~- " All claimsunder this arrangcjnent shall be payable in the kind of currency either Canadian or American in which the premiums are paid.

Settlement of 'all claims alloweAl will, however, in future, be miade without the delay inseparable from, the present system, of insurance. 6. It is expected that all- preseiit and future employes of the Comi>any who from the nature of their occuX)ations^are exposed to the risk of accidental injury in the discharge of their -duties. Will enrol their names as subscribers to the Fund,, and no servant'^of the Company Who neglects to avail himself of the, opportiinit^' hereby afforded will be. entitled to receive any compensation' ' whatever from the Company's liinds in case of iiyury, either as a direct pay- m^t, or in the shapte of gratuitous medical attendance, and as stated in the Managing Director'a Circular M. Aoo, no wages tcilt be allowed to any employe tohiht off duty front accident, y '\ . - 7. The deductions hitherto made from the pay of employes insured under . the old system will be continued, at the reduced rates, and th«3 parties, in addition to being secured in all the rights which they now possess, will become participants in the benefits conferred by the new arrangement, 8. As the Fund- to be established will operate for the mutual benefit of kit the contributors, it will not be competent for an employe on leaving the seryico' of the Company to claim repayment of the amouiit' of his individual contribu- * tion, or any part thereof, and this proviso must be understood and agreed to by aJl who may become parties to the arrangement, and is made a condition of their subscription to the Fund. . , 9. In case of any dispute arising as tolhe paymeiit of claims made, the matter shall be referred to the Managing Director of the Company, whose decflion on the subject shall be accepted as final. ^ ' " - T *('(. % \ A. ■'( '•' ^ % o ^ 10; Every moii who takes advantage of this arrangement will fee required to .sign an agreement on a form to be provided for thtj purpose, setting forth that hfe accepts these conditions, and making also provision for the distribution of the ■^ -^ount for which he may be insured, in the event of his death from accident whilst in the service of the Company. f ' . ■; JOSEPH HICKSON, , , - Svcretanj A- Trecmirer. •fti ; Memo, of Amounts to be Insured and Payments to bv made.
