Ordered 70 Supply Infor1na-5

(By Associated press. )

$ii 5i54i (By$ Associated Presa.)
# NEW YORK, August s.---The Mutual
Life Insurance Company was ordered
by Justice Giegerich to-day to furnish
a correct list OF It's policyholders to the
International Policyholders Committee,
and to file a similar correct list with the
State Insurance Department at Albany,
within ten days. The order was Issued
s In response to@an application for q writ
OF mandamus made by Colonel A. NJ.
Shook, OF Tennessee. q member OF the
committee, and was opposed by counsel
for the Mutual Life Insurance Company.
Justice Giegerich denied the application
of the Policyhoders Committee that their
circulars be sent to poIicyholders on the
stencils prepared for the company. In
his argument on behalf OF the petition.
Samuel Untermyer, counsel for the COM
fpany. said that they had employed twelve
postofflce experts to assist In getting
the committees circulars out to policy
< holders, and that nineeen per cent. OF
+ the envelopes were returned to them un-
delivered. u
ION the other hand he aaid, 'the COM
Bpany having a correct list are sending
circulars to the policyholders without de-
lay, in an effort to influence votes in
favor OF the trustees nominated by the
present administration ticket OF the Mu-
ftual. a more Infamous and unleard OF
performance has never found Its way
into a court OF Justice" declared Mr..
Untermyer, I'VE have only the right to
nominate a list OF directors. and unless
we can obtain a correct list OF policy
holders we cannot reach them. and many
OF them will be disfranchised from yot-
ing. We are In peril OF not being able
to nominate O ticket unless thu facilities
we demand are granted u.s."
Mr. Brewster, OF counsel for the Mutual
Life Insurance Company, In opposing the
motion, said that the company was not
bound to supply the list week by week
as Mr.. y ntermyer con tended, but to supply
one list, which had been done. ut Is need
less to say that the personnel OF the
Mutual Ia not what It was during the
Legislative investigation" he added
II think interposed Justice Giegerioh,
that the pollcyholders should be placed
In O position to receive the very latest
informant on all matters affecting their
interests, think that, as the law recog-
nized the right Of the pollcyholders to
govern. they should have the right to

During sharp exchange between Mr.,
untermyer and Mr.. Brewster Mr., Unter-
myer said: my friend has made the
statement that the personnel OF the COM
pany Isl not the same as II WAS during the
legislative investigation. No; a few
soapegoats were sacrificed by the main
power, but the men who 'are responsible
for all the scandals and thleYery OF this
