Brov n, <t al.. v». The Empire Life In*urtt r.i<* Co., et al. No. 31707 Equitable Petition in Pulton Bu peri eft* ( 'onrt. In view of the diligence, ehlllty, earn entneM and zeal with which able coun »* representing both the plaintiff and the (lflendcni In thl* cane have pressed their contentions. I deem it appropriate, if not ne< ceaajry, to make some remarks preliminary to entering n judgment. In nriy opinion, the powers and dutle* \eMed in the InsuVamH- I Apartment of thifl State is respect to insolvent insur ance eompnnlen, are cumulative, rather than ©xciiiNlve, of the powers of the Hu pei lor Courts to suspend Ihe operation* of such companies b\ process of injunc tion and administration of their naai-ta. I'rider certain circumstance*. The In surance Commissioner, under the act ap proved August 19th, 1912, may esus# an insurance company to appear before ihe Hoard, composed of himself, the Attor ney (leneraf and the Governor, to show cause why Its license should not be re voked, and edd Hoard may, upon a hear ing. in its discretion, revoke the license; but to enforce such mandate and compel Ui a cassation from business, tt.* iqsui Hhce Commissioner would be compelled to invoke the aid of any court of com petent Jurisdiction, that is to say, the Superior Courts, for Injunction or pro cecdtng* run rotatory <*• otherwise. Ho would the Commissioner be compelled to resort to the courts for effective enforce ment of any order made or action tuken, in pursuance of the insurance law'. Coder Sect lon 12 of the Act refeiVed to, in proscribing the authority of or direc tion to the Insurance Commissioner to apply to the Court, It is distinctly de clared that nothing contained Ln tne in surance laws of this Htste shall be so construed as to prevent any company or person Affected by any order or action ot the Insurance Commissioner from testing the validity of the same In any court of competent Jurisdiction. Thus it would appear that, to milks effective the orders of the Commissioner, ift - to permit those affected to test the validity of his or ders there must tie a resort to the courts. Insurance Commissioner's Powers. In Section 29 of this Act of 1912, it is nrovlded that, where any domestic life insurance company is insolvent, the in surance < 'onimisHioner may, the Attor ney (Jeneral representing him. appl> to the Circuit Court, (that is the Superior Court b or sny Judge thereof for an or der directing tile Company alleged to he Insolvent to show why the Commissioner should not take possession of it* prop erty, and conduct Its business, and for such other relief as the nature of the case, and the Interests of Its policy holders, creditors, stockholders and the public, may require This provision broadens Ihe question, and would raise for contest matters which clearly ll never was Intended the Insurance Department of the State should decide or control to Die exclusion of courts of competent Jurisdiction. It I* provided that, upon such applica tion, or at any time thereafter, euch court may. In Its discretion. i*nue an injunction restraining the company from the tiHiiMMctlon of Its affair* or dispos ing of Its assets until further order from the t'ourt. I'pon the hearing the Court shall bear, try and determine the Issues, and deny the applh ation or direct the ('ommlssioner to tuke possession of the property and continue Its business un til. on tti»‘ application of the C'ommis stonrt* or of the Attorney (Jeneral rspre ting him. oi such Compgnj It shaii, after a like hearing, appeal to the Court that the giound for such order directing the Commissioner to take possession has been removed, and that tire Company may properly resume possession of us |Property and the conduct of Its business If on a like application and order to show cause, ami at the hearing, the Court should order the liquidation of the buslnes* of such company, such liquida tion shal! be made h> and under the di rection of ihe Commissioner, who may iti at with the property and buaAnnM of such Company In Ids own name, us Com missioner, or In the ns me of the Com* lam a* th< Court may direct, and the Commissioned shall he vested, hy opera tion of law. with title to all property, • ontracts and rights of action of such Company as of the date of the order so directing him to liquidate It appears tt» the Court that the legis lative intent by the Aid of 1912. was to expand the powers and duties of the In surance Department of the State, and to permit that Department, In case of In solvent*) of an Insurance Company, to proceed of Its own motion to bring about a cessation of huslness. a reorganisation of Us affairs, or u distribution of Its as sets, even though no policyholder,, stock holder. or or edit oft* should undertake to to do The policy of the law evident!;- Is that Insolvent Insurance companies shall not continue in huatneas; that they shall not further proceed to got money, perhaps from an unsuspecting public, even though no other instrumentality should be invoked to st«g» It* operations, and for the furthlk* purpose that, If an Insurance company was not Insolvent, but was \ urging upon Insolvency,, or carrying on a business which Inevitably would run It upon rock* of destruction, that the Insurance Department might, under this law, haw* the power to bring about a reorganisation of Its business, and put It within the line# of conservat ism and safety. The legislative mind nrobably went upon the idea that an insumnee com }Mtit might be ip hard lines, that it might be operating under such course of policy aml line ot us‘n**ss. tlukt It could not ultimate!) succeed, and not be a**ie for those Interested In it. and yet where th«* method of anointing a receiver to take charge of Its assets, practically to annihilate its business ami wind it up thtoug * • of sale a button would be against the Interests of a l interested In It, and that, rather than tills thoae interested, who might he aide and willing to put It upon ft Arm basis end carry it to a succeasfnl end, might have the opportunity of so doing, under the advice and direction and con trol of the Insurance D?|t*rtment Insurance Department Might Have T aken Action If Deemed Proper It I* the opinion of the Court that, under the laws of tide Htate. as they ■tood at the time of the filing of thla bill there ww* no Inhibition agwlnat seeking remedy in the Court without ap plying to the Insurance Commissioner. The Insurance Department of the State might hat* moved. If It had seen proper, In this case If It hod so mined, It would have been the dut\ of the Court to hare haard the caee and applied the * omedtee ns provided in the Act of 1912 And yet. even In such s esse, ts It had started In eucu s way. and It had mani festly appeared on the trial that the prio resses authorised b> the Insurance *aw were Inadequate to the situation. If tt had appeared that (he business could not be reorganized or continued, that there was nothing to do but to wind It up and dispose of it* issets there is nothing In the Insurance lews of the State of Geor gia which would have prevented the Dourt from in such case, appointing a receiver. Therefore, It appear* to, the ( ’ourt that It ha* Jurisdiction of the case under consideration. In corning to a conclusion in this case, the Oourt has considered the demurrers filed on all the ground* stated therein, and of course, this Interlocutory hearing being hud before the term of the Court to which this case wa* returnable, no final action can be taken on such demurrer*, and as that question may arise m the usual course of procedure, the Court now m ike* no decided ruling on the question as to whether or not the general demurrers ought or ought not to he sustained. In the disposition of the case which the Court will make by an order In the cause, it appear* to he unnecessary to determine the question of objection* raised to the allowance of Intervention* to the plaintiff’s case, or of the defend ant* side of the controversy. I have patiently heard the evidence produced by the parties to the case An Immense amount of evidence has been produced, much of it very conflicting, and Home of it perfectly irreconcilable; but in my opinion, the weight of the evidence lead* to Hie conclusion that this defend ant Company may lawfully proceed with Its business Its predecessor passed over very rough places, and at the time tHe defendant took over Its predecessor, the cotnpari) taken over was Inevitably drfltlng to shipwreck. The lessons learn ed from the experience of the predecessor company, an dthe experiences of tlie de fendant Company, if heeded in its future operations, will enable It to go forward with its business, provided that what Is known as the Augusta situation is car ried out to h successful issue. Impressed With Augusta Stockholders. I have been greatly Impressed with the testimony giving the altitude of the Au gusta stockholders in the defendant Com pany. If tliev do, as I believe they will/ carry forward their expressed expecta tion* and determinations, and if the erection of the building in Augusta i* carried to a conclusion, I can see no reason why this Company should not K‘* on and become an Institution worthy of itself, and beneficial to the country in which it operates. I am led to this con clusion to some extent also by the testi mony of the expert* who have examined it, and who have testified about it, par ticularly the testimony of Mr. ButtoUh, whose expert opinion ln mattffrs of this kind ought to. and does, receive careful attention and considerable weight. I think the concensus of oplnon of the witness*-* Buttolth, Copeland and Bar nett lead to the conclusion that the Company, under good management and careful and conservative conduct on its part, will accomplish it* ends and pur pose. The value of the assets of thl* Com pany are hard to determine. The ques tion of viiui I* largely .» question of opinion Witnesses differ very greatly as to the value of the assets, and, act ing under the law that the courts should act, in matties of receivership, with groat care arid caution, where it is evi dent which would authorize a finding either way on the value of the assets. I must give the benefit of a doubt to th« defendant. On the question of solvency or Insolv ency. I believe the law to be that ordi narily the good will of an Insurance '•company amounts to but little, if any thing. in the computation of Its assets, but 1 believe tluit, under the policy of the law of our State, which permits the Insurance Department of the State. In cases of even probable Insolvency, to go on and readjust, reorganize, or re-insure this element should be taken Into ac count as one of value. Stockholders Men of Qood Repute. I bis defendant Company ha* been in nee for some tint* The nUU re • shows that among Its stockholders are many men of good repute, high standing and property, and a company with such owners, and with a large business on It* books, ought to be worth more than one without experience or busineaa would be. if properly organized. ln passing on thla case. 1 think It due to both side* of the controversy to say that 1 am assured from the evidence In thf ■ uni, tii.it the plaintiff in the ctw believes that he has been wrongfully dealt with, and that he 1* seeking what he honestly believes to be his proper re dress Ills able counsel believes that they have a right to the remedy they seek. I am impressed with the idea that these defendants believe thoroughly in their company. 1 believe that the Macon transaction wa* a mistake, to say the least of it; but 1 do not believe that those who had port ln It for the Company intended to perpetrate any fraud by it. The filing of the bill was not done by ft vote of ftie stockholder*, and perhaps the Company as a corporation may be re sponsible for whatever was done in re spect to it; but .1 believe that that 1)11! was filed from what appear* to have been unnecessary apprehension, that the Company did not really mean to admit it* insolvency, but for the time being confessed it in order to be saved from an attack, and those who filed the bill then thought they were Justified in that matter a* a means to avoid a vital is sue about to be precipitated In what they conceived to be an unfriendly jurisdiction. No one can doubt tliat. If this defend ant Company can carry on its business successfully, It will be to the advantage of «v erv one connected with It. whet heir he be stockholder, certificate holder or creditor. If It cannot carry on Its bull nas* successfully then of course, it* ca reer will be stopped, and its asset* will be administered for tire benefit of those entitled to share In them One of Two Things to Do. There I* one ot two thing* to do: Hither to deny the Injunction and appli cation for receivership, and let the Com ps n> proceed with business, under the watchful, vigilant land capable eye of the Insurance Department; To grant the injunction and appoint a Receiver and make sale and distribution of the assets according to law and equity It must be remembered that the Court, hv a receiver, could not run the Insur ance business The appointment of a receiver means the execution of the Company, as such This would be vir tually so at any rate, because It would appear wiser to build a new Company than to attempt by the process of a re <*elv«ft*ehlp, to help resurrect a practical i!y dead one. If Augusta friends and stockholders of 1 this Company stand by the contract, live up to the promises, help in the man- Mgcmeut, and complete that handsome •eveteen-story office building. 1 can see |no reason why the Company should not isucceed If s receiver were appointed, that of fice building could not ne completed by him, and to sell It In its present condi tion would In all pmhubilltv. sacrifice It If no receiver is appointed, even If the Augusta people do not stand by theft* claimed promises and agreements the Insurance Department of the Htste, If it sees fit. can take the course pre scribed t v law, and give the Company an opportunity to re-insure Its policyholders If there should be s failure on the part of the Augusta people to act favorably if the Insurance should fall to act. and ts It should in the future ap pear that the Company is up against the breaker* and Insolvent, then the Court will interfere end take such measures as will protect tits parties et Interest.

NEW CHINESE GOV’T WIRELESS NOW COMPLETE Shanghai, —The new wireless tele graph station constructed hy Siemens for the Chinese government at Woo sung, where the Huancpu river, on which Shanghai stands, enters the Yangstee Is now complete. This station is one of a. chain of Telefunken stations to be establish ed at Kalgan, Peking, Hankow. Shang hai, Swatow and Canton for which an agreement was concluded in March, 1913. All these are now completed except those at Rwatow and Hankow Eor several days Woosung has been conversing with Tsingtao and longer trials were to have been made last night but were prevented by excep tional heat and atmospheric disturb ance*. It is an Interresting question bow this system may affect the position of the projected Marooni agreement.
