Again Refuses to File
Its Deferred Dividend
Fund.
PROLONGED FIGHT IN I
COURTS MAY BE RENEWED
Ii Company Can Avoid Paying
the Tax City Will Lose
About $750,OOO.

The Prudential Insurance Company
has refused to file among it's list of
taxables this year it's deferred dividend
fund, amounting to about s24,00o.0o0.
This is the same fund which was the
cause of a prolonged fight in the courts
between the city and the insurance
corporation. The Court of Errors and
Appeals last winter. affirming the su-
levied on 1t In 1909 was valid
The company refuses this year to in
clude the fund in its taxables on the
basis of n new computation of the
value of its policies made by Com
missioner of Banking and Insurance
Vivian M. Lewis.
In the event of the company's con-
tinuing to resist taxation on the fund
there will no doubt be another fight in
the courts between tho municipality
and the insurance corporation.
Edward d. Duffield, attorney for the
Prudential; Wilbur johnson. its comp
troler, and John K Gore, the actuary,
were In conference with the Board OF
Assessment and Revision of Taxes to-
day concerning the figures in the Pru-
Dental tax statement.
The company seeks TO cfass the de-
ferred dividend fund as a liability ex-
empt from taxation. The Supreme
Court decided and was upheld by the
Court of Errors and Appeals last win
ter that 1t was not, as then computed,
such @ liability.
May Lose ST5o,o0O.
TO have annuiled the assessment on
the deferred dividend fund of 1909 the
Prudential appealed to the Court of
Errors and Appeals. The fund then
amounted s14.623.279. The state law
requires the company to make an ap-
portionment of this kind for deferred
dividend policies. The County Board
of Taxation approved the action of the
city taxing authorities In putting the
deferred fund among the ratables, the
State Board of Equalization of Taxes
upset this ruling. then the Supreme
Court and the Court of Errors and APP
peals both reversed the State tax
board. The fund in 1910 amounted to
a little more than $20,000,000, and this
year would probably reach s24,OoO00
II the Prudential can avoid paying
taxes on that fund this year it will
mean a loss to the city of nearly $780,
900 on that item alone.
In the opinion of the Court of Err
rors and Appeals it was pointed out
that the fund was a part of the profits
or surplus of the company but that the
mere setting aside of it under the law
OF 1907 did not create any new liabil-
ity. The liability to the holders of de-

THE CANAL.

q We learned from Mr.. Edgar
Bourg, yesterday morning, that the
dam, built by the city across the
Southern Canal at Mr.. Rodrigue's
place, gave away on Thursday un-
der the STRAIN Of the great volume
OF water held by it in the upper
section Of the canal. The water IN
the canal, after the break, went
out very rapidly, sweeping many
boats down to the railroad bril ge.
It is also pleasing to learn that
the canal is effectively carrying off
the water from the low lands and
that it has big margin in capacity
for caring for the floods.
Dairyman Broussard says he is
puzzled. Notwithstanding the fact
that the new canal and levee keep
all up-cOuntry water off his lands.
yet . part OF his place was flooded
this week, just as OF old.
