Just Mt that instant four men stroll

one OF them took the glowing stump

Some witnesses declare he saw
the crowd of children in the centre Of
the street and purposely threw the
lighted cigar butt among them. His act
was probably an innocent one.
The burning cigar landed squarely In

Clause in Law Inserted BY
Henry B. Hyde Entities
Them to Surplus.
SHARE in $7S,oOO,OOO.
Senator Bracket Will Ask Court
of Appeals to Pass On
Question at Once.

Senator Brackett, counsel for Mrs.
Mary s. Young. n stockholder in the
Equitable Life Assurance Society, has
discoveredu a clause in the State In
surance law which. 1t Is said, will give
Equitable pol!cy-holders the right to
an immediate share in the $4,000. 900
surplus held by the company. The
Senator will ask the Court of Appeals
TO pass on the question at once. and IL
the court should decide in favor of
the policy-holders the Equitable will
find itself in deeper water than ever,
because OF the grating practices laid
to Its officers.
Strange to say, this clause in the In
suiance law was inserted by Henry b.
Hyde, the founder of the company,
who. it is declared. sought by 1t to
gain possession of the surplus, instead
of paying an annual dividend to the
policy holders.
This law was enacted in 1865, and to-
day It is termed sneak BILL" for it
was slipped through the legislative
body Just as "jokers" are in these ad-
vanced days when an inside job" Is
intended.
Joker" In the Bill.
Tho clause is Incorporated in the
statute Of 1858 as Section g. The bill
reads.
Amy domestic life insurance corpora
ton which, by It's charter or articles OF
association 10 restricted to making a
dividend only once In two or more years
anything to the contrary In s,ach charter
or articles, make snd pay over dividends
annually. or at longer intervals. in the
manner and proportions and among the
parties provided for in such charter OF
articles"
The joker in this law 10 that the COM
panies were permitted to pay dividends
annually or at longer intervals. Mr.
Hyde Immediately proceeded to invent
his long term deferred dividend policy.
But Mr.. Hyde overreached himself
The last clause appears to be as vital
as the ''joker' itself. It requires that
the company make and pay over divi-
dends annually or at longer intervals. in
the parties provided for in such charter
or articles.
Life Of Policy Seven Years.
Now It Is maintained that since the
statistics for forty-hve years show tnat
the average life OF the policy is about
seven wears instead OF twenty. the
twenty-year policy, as well as the ten
and fifteen year, exclude the average
policy boldor from all dividends on his
policy.
But the charter of the Equitable pro-
vides that dividends shall be distributed
among the policy-holders, who have
paid premiums for Ave years. And the
law which Hyde himself had introduced
declared that the distribution should be
among the parties provided for In such
charter, which would seem to include
those who had paid premiums for five
years. There is no doubt that the ma
jority OF those declared by the charter
to he entitled to dividen ds are excluded
by the long term policies
Opposed to the Hyde SNEAK Bill" is
the very charter OF the Equitable, whioh
reads:
beginning with Dec 81. 1869. there
shall eb q distribution of tn surplus
profits of .he company at the end OF
five years and at the end OF every
five-year period hereafter.
