Rudolph A. Loewenthal the president OF the

Attorney General OF the State for the removal OF
the officers trustees and inspectors OF election Oh

be a complete answer TO all the attacks which Mr.
Armstrong has been making. the officers say. MT.
Loewentha yesterday characterized as utterly anu
ridculously false the statements In the petition 10
the Attorney General which aege the improper
use of money or improper methods OF election
by the officers or stockholders OF the company.
To show that Mr.. Armstrong; petition was I'M
true in declaring that the Mutual Fire Insurance
Company was not a stock company, Mr.. Loewen-
thai produced the company's charter and original
minute book and pointed TO the records. They
prove beyond question that the company was Or
ganized and incorporated stock company in
January 1862 with capital stock or SZOoOVo dlVio-
ed into 1900 shares. On account OF an op)ection
made by William Barnes the Superintendent OF
Insurance who declared that the name Mutual
ought not to be taken by a stock company, the
stockholders on February TO- 1869. consented TO
change of name and the company was known as
The Insurers own until the LEGISLATURE passed
an act changing the name back to the Mutual Fire
Insurance Company. The act is Chapter 1876 Of the
Laws of 1870

pany now" Mr. Loewenthal said yesterday, and
he is not even a policy-holder. He was the presi-
dent Of the company for several years; until 1881.
when and the other officers had all the business
of the company reinsured in the Lancashire lnsur-
ance Company. He has been sued for s20S000, the
amount which he received on account of the REIN
surance, and suits have been brought by the COM
pany also against the other former officers who
received money in the same deal. The suit has
been down for trial In the Supreme Court on
June 49, Friday next Some months ago Mr.. Arm
strong tried to get an injunction TO restrain the
company from transacting business, and his APP
plicaton was denied. The reason for his present
application to the Acknowledgment Is easy to
| understand The application itself can do no harm
to the company and the hearing before the At
torney General on Thursday will disclose the rea-
son for his la test attack"
