Temporary PROCEEDINGS Against Can

Temporary PrOceedings Against Can
collation. of Insurance Policy.
Proceedings in equity for Injunction were
instituted today in the Supreme Court OF
the District Of Columbia by c. Fred Cook
against the Columbia Life and Annuity As
sociation. OF which E. Richard Shipp Is
president. The complainant sets forth that
he holds policy certificate No. so in the de-
fendant company, and that he paid the
monthly assessments regularly and prompt
ly in full to the 1st of August last. During
tine first part of last month. the complain
ant says. he presented himself at the office
of the association. 452 D street, prepared to
pay the current assessment, but that the
clerk agent in charge claimed he would
not receive the premium In the absence of
the president who, he said, would be in
later.
The complainant AYERS that he came later
and several times thereafter without find
ing Mr.. Shipp; that though he met Mr.
Shipp In the court house and rendered both
the required assessment for August and
September, the latter did not receive same
and informed petitioner that he would send
his collector for the money, but. 1t is de-
clared, the collector failed to appear, and
that when complainant presented himself
at the Office and finally found Mr.. Shipp
there the latter informed him his policy
would be Cancelled.
The complainant further says that Shipp
informed him that he has made it a prac-
tice since taking charge of the association
to cut out many policy holders In the
manner indicated. which method the
complainant AYERS, was adopted to do away
with policies like the one held by the COM
piainant. because it was believed by said
Company to be too liberal in its advantages
to the assured.
1t is stated that until about June, 1900,
Gen. George II. HaTries was the president
OF the company. but was then succeeded by
Mr.. Shipp. and 1t is charged that In at
ffnv
the company Is endeavoring to peTpetrate
an injustice upon complainant by which he
will suffer financial injury.
The petitioner IN represented by Attorney
Wilton j. Lambert, VINO presented the mat
ter before Justice Cole in Equity Court No.
