Of at least five shares Of the capital
stock" The petition then set out the
clause of the charter of the society
wherein it is provided that in the elec-
ton of directors every stakeholder
should be entitled to one vote for every
share of stock held by him, and that At
any time after the organization of the
society the board of directors might,
by a vote of three-fourths of all the
directors provide that each life policy
holder, who shall be insured for not less
than $4,000, shall be entitled to one vote
at the annual election of directors,
such vote to be given personally and
not by proxy The petition then recit-
ed that the number of policyholders
and benefciaries of the society now
| exceeds 500, 900, and that the accumu-
lations held by the society amount e
over $41000O,OOO. The petitioners then
represented that from their practical
experience i'm the conduct of the So

Five days later, to wit, on the 18th Of
February, 1905, being the day prior to
the annual meeting of the society,
which was held on the Sth of February
1908, these same gentlemen presented a
supplemental petition to the board OF
directors Of the society, in which they
recited that, eve deem it proper to
state that a copy Of such petition (tha
original was furnished to Mr.. Hyde
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-06-29

April Z, 1905 and elected a chairman,
who was directed to employ a secre-
tary.
AS the committee was appointed to
investigate the management of the
society, the primary inquiry is what
constitutes the management where it
is lodged by law, and how it may be
lawfully exercised.
The charter of the society contains
these words: THE corporate powers Of
said company shall be vested in a
board of directors and shall be eXercis-
ed by them and such officers and agents
as they may appoint and from time to
time empower"
The exercise Of the corporate powers
of the company and the acts incident
there to constitute its management and
it is this management that the directors
empowered the committee to investi-
gate.
Referring again to the charter quot
ed above, it will be observed that while
the corporate powers are vested in the
directors, the exercise of those powers,
that is the management of the COM
pany's affairs, is committed to the
directors and such officers and agents
as they may appoint So that in the
last analysis comes to this that this
committees duty is to investigate the
management by the directors and like
wise the management of the officers
This severance or division of the COM
mittees duty is made for many practi-
cal reasons besides convenience, and
especially for the purpose of locating
the responsibility for wrong-doing in
specific cases Of mismanagement
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-06-29

action was taken by the board of IL
rectors upon these requests up to the
time of the reelection of the present
management whose acts are now under
investigation.
At the annual meeting held on Feb
ruary s, 1905, the president of the So
ciety submitted to the board of di-
rectOrs the petition of February ?, 1906
and the supplemental petition of Feb
ruary 9TH, 1906 hereinbefore referred
to, together with the opinion of coun-
sell obtained by the petitioners, rela-
tive to the legality of the mutualiza-
ton of the society. At this meeting
proposed new charter and declara-
ton for the socity was submitted, and
motion made that the president and
secretary of the society be authorized
and directed to execute the proposed
amended charter and take all necessary
steps to validate the same. This mo-
ton was, by the unanimous vote of the
board, laid upon the table. There
upon committee of the board was APP
pointed to inquire into the matters and
documents submitted by the president,
namely, the petition Of February, 2,
II
T. 1905, and the opinion of counsel upon
the subject-matter of said petitions,
with instructions to report to the board
in one week. This was the unanimous
action of the board. Whereupon the
meeting adjourned until February 16,
1905.
In the meanwhile, and prior to the
date to which the meeting Of the board
was adjourned, to wit, on the 10Th of
February 1905, James w. Alexander,
the president of the society, addressed
communication to the committee ap-
pointed by the board in which he dis
cussed at length the proposition of mu-
tualization proposed in the petitions OF
February 2 and 7, 1905, maintaining as
part of his argument for mutualiza-
ton that the question of naturalization
"has now boone doubly acute be-
cause of the open, aggressive and mis-
guided emphasis and outward assertion
given to the fact of his stock control
by James H. Hyde, the vlce-president
of the company"
This communication of February Is
likewise set out at length the argu-
ment of Mr.. Alexander for mutualiza-
ton based upon his allegations of
shortcomings and misdoings upon the
part of Mr. Hyde as an individual anC
as an officer Of the company, of whom
Mr.. Alexander said; 81 think his err.
rors Notwithstanding their baneful ef-
feet upon the society and their grave
menace to its future prosperity, arise
from fundamental wrong condition
which I ann hopeful that the board Of
directors Of this society will, in theil
wisdom, correct"
At the adjourned meeting of the
board Of directors held in the 10th Of
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-06-29

February, 1905 the board adopted a
scheme of naturalization as detailed in
the report of the committee of direc-
tors submitted to the meetings and
reelected all of the existing officers of
the society, including the vice-presi-
dent against whom the protest had
been lodged by the president and other
officers of the society. At the same
meeting the former executive commit
tee with the addition of Mr.. H. c. FriclS
was elected with James H. Hyde as
its chairman; and the former finance
committee, with the addition of l.. c.
Prick, which consists of the members
of the executive committee and one
additional person. The former mem
bers of the other standing committees
were also reelected to wit, the COM
mittees on agencies, on insurance, and
on accounts. Thus the board of direc-
tors of the society disposed of the three
propositions presented in the petition
of the officers of the company and in
their amended petition, as hereinbe-
fore stated, by adopting a scheme of
naturalization, and by disposing of the
protest against the reelection of Mr..
Ilyut ny IG-GlGCllIlB MN.
The scheme of naturalization adopt
ed by the board of directors SUISSE
quently underwent changes by the ac-
ton of the board. 1t is not necessary,
however for the committee to now
| pursue t history of these changes
or to discuss their merits, as this was
a matter with which the board of dl-
rectors dealt directly, and whose ac-
] ton in respect thereto is now pending
| before the insurance commissioner
and the court.
The charges aga lst Mr. hyde were
followed by charges made by him a
| gainst Mr.. Alexander, the president OF
! the society. These charges and coun.
tercharges, in which other officers oil
the society were included, raised seri,
GUS and radical questions affecting the
management of the society, which re,
suited in the appointment of this com.
mittee by resolution of the board o.
directors passed on the 9th of April
1905, under the terms of which Messrs
Bliss Mill, Frick, Hartman, Ives, Hill
and ingalls, were appointed to con-
stitute the committee and were
charged with the duty of thoroughly
investigating and reporting upon the
present management of the society
said committee to select its chairman
and adopt measures of procedure"
Messrs. Hill and Mills immediately
after their appointment gave notice o
their inability to serve upon the com
mittee and the duties of the committe,
have been so far performed by the re
I naming members.
The committee held its first meeting
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-06-29

re the Board of Directors of the Equit-
able Life Assurance society of the
United States
Sus:-Ihe undersigned, members of
the committee appointed to thorough
ly investigate and report upon the
present management of the society"
beg leave to submit the following:
On the 2d of February, 1905, James
w. Alexander president; Gage e. Tar
bell second vice-president; George T.
Wilson, third vice-president; William
Alexander, secretary, and thrty-four
other officers of the Equitable Life AS
surance Society of the United States,
presented to the board of directors Of
the society a petition setting forth
their views and opinion regarding the
future management of the affairs Of
the society the conservation of it's
business, and the due administration
and protection of the trust funds i'm its
charge"
In this petition it is also recited that
the society was organized i'm 1853. that
its charter expressly provided that its
insurance business should be conduct
ed upon the mutual plan, that its cap
ital stock was 100000 divided into 600
shares of the par value of 500 each,
that the dividends on the capital stock
were limited to Z per cent per annum,
that all the net earnings and receipts
above the dividends should be accumu-
lated, and that "the corporate powers
of the society should be vested in the
board of directors, and that such board
should consist Of hfty-two persons
each of whom was to be the proprietor

on the Sd instant as the representative
and owner of a majority of the capital
stock of the society" They then added
i'm this supplemental petition: 1--WE al
so deem It proper to add that, in our
opinion, after the most careful and
anxious consideration of the subject,
the reelection of Mr.. Hyde as vice
president and acting president in the
absence of the president, with all the
powers he has exercised, would be
most prejudical to the welfare and
progress Of the society and the con-
servation Of the trust funds held for
the benefit of our policyholders. Mr..
Hyde's prominence in various ways
and his acts as vice. president are such
as tend to provoke criticism of the So
ciety, to create misgivings as to the
conservatism of it's management, and
to injure its business as an institution
which has been uniformly held out to
the public as conducted solely on the
mutual plan for the benefit and pro-
lection of its policyholders."
This imported into the petition an
entirely new request to the board of
directors
As matters stood on February s, 1905,
the day of the annual meeting, the pc
titioning officers of the society had ask
ed for three things:
@ That the $4,000 policyholders be
at once enfranchsed.
CD That legal steps be taken to en-
franchise all classes of benehciaries."
O. That Hyde should not be re-elect-
ed vice-president.
We will now proceed to show, as a
part Of the history of the case, what
