    Writ of error refused.
    Stennis & Stennis, of Dallas, for applicant.
   PER CURIAM.

The application for writ of error is refused for the reason that no error appears in the opinion of the Court of Civil Appeals as against the applicant, the American Surety Company of New York. We do not agree, however, with the Court of Civil Appeals that the clause in the policy providing for proof of loss to be furnished at the home office of the company within 60 days is not in violation of Revised Statutes 1925, art. 5546 (Vernon’s Statutes, art. 5714).
