OFFICE oE THE N. Y. LIFE INSURANCE Co.
New YORK, April 9, 1868.
In the Synopsis of the Standing of Life
Insurance Companies doing business in
Massachusetts,, which appears in the last
Report Of the insurance Commissioners Of
that State, the New YORK LIFE INSURANCE
COMPANY is represented as having only
SO and 41-l00 per cent. of assets to liabili-
ties Though modification of this is fonud
on subsequent page Of the Report; and
we learn that interested parties are making
use of this statement to the prejudice of this
Company, by imputing to it much small
er surplus than is possessed by other Com
panies.
The computation of the Commissioners,
however, was based upon an erroneous item
in our Annual Statement to them, which has
since been recti6ed; and we have received
from them an official certificate which is
appended hereto, showing that our ratio of
AsSets TO Liabilities is 129 and 27-10O per
cent instead of the amount mentioned in
their Report:
This certificate, will, we doubt not cor
rect any wrong impressions which may have
been received by those who have observed
the Synopsis alluded to.

This Company has $137 of assets for eve
ry 500 of its liabilities, and is thus safe be-
yond all contingencies. 1t is moreover a
purely mutual company, having not the in
cumbrance Of a guarantee capital to absorb a
! large portion of the profits which should be
divided among the policy holders in the form
of dividends. Many persons are not aware O.
| the distinction between purely mutual com
pany and one having guarantee capital
1t may be illustrated in this wise-two mer
chants embark in business-the one with
$4,000, capital of his own-the othe with til,

borrowed money. The second merchant coulC
make a prima facie show to his creditors o
a large basis for credit which would 0
course be falIacious. This difference is seer
by the report of Commissioner Wright in re
spect to certain companies doing business il
this State-with the guarantee capital, which
is, so far as the policy holders are concerneC
borrowed money included as a portion of th
assets, several companies stand as follows;
