M'CUES CHILDREN
NOW ENTER SUIT
>Rne Bill Of Attachment to Recover Al
legged Claim for Life
Insurance.
THE NORTHWESTERN MUTUAL co.
The Children Claim that by Their Father
Death They Become Members
Entitled to Share.

Charlottesville, Va, Sept. 3O,-Tht
four infant children of the late ]. Sam
uel McCue have, through their next
friend, Mr.. Marshall Dinwiddie, filed a
bill of attachment against the North
western Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany, of Milwaukee, claiming $15, 600,
the amount of McCue's life insurance II
that company.
The former mayor had large amount
of life insurance, and the only compan-
les that have not paid up are the North
western and the Royal Arcanum. The
New York Life, the Equitable, Travel
lers, Fidelity, Mutual and Life Insur-
ance Company of Virginia promptly
paid the -,;.;;,;,,es, aggregating S45, OOO
The bill filed in the case claims that
the Northwestern is a mutual company
and that all its assets belong to its
members, and that, on the death of Nc
Cue, by the terms of the company S
charter, the children, as his heirs, be-
came members of the company, and are
entitled to share Of the assets to the
amount fixed by this insurance, anc
that the charter of the company gives
the heirs the right to sue for it.
The policy provides that beneficiary
was to be named in it, and that if Nc
Cue survived this beneficiary the pro-
ceeds were to become payable to his ex-
ecutors. No beneficiary was ever nam
ed in the policy, and none survived the
insured, and consequently the heirs
claim that as the condition under which
the executors were to receive the
amount of the policy never occurred
= the children are pointed out by the
charter as the persons entitled to re-
covery.
1t is understood that a similar suit
will be instituted against the Royal Ar
canum.

formation concerning which was to the
effect that Herbert McTeak, young

resulted in the instantaneous death OF
young Kemp, occurred at an "apple
