The call having been issued by the Phalo which Is purely a philanthropic organization, many of the ladles conceived tho nation that the federation was to be.one for the 'Study of philanthropy.

With this in mind Mrs. Chapman and Mrs. Croly'spoke hard against the idea at yesterday's meeting. Mrs. Croly suggested that a great charitable federation was a great responsibility to and she considered the meeting too small to act for the clubs.

Mrs. Harden Hess said that the supposition that tho federation was to be philanthropic merely was entirely erroneous; all departments of women's work In clubs were to be represented. Mrs. Ravenhill was in doubt whether city federation would help anybody wnen the State federation was still In Its Infancy. Mrs.

Alexander, from the 'chair, pointed out the immense power of a city federation, and declared that as they had come together it was their duty to do something dellnlte. A motion was finally framed that sat- sfied all parties. The old committee was named as the nucleus ofi a new committee, which was empowered to add to Its membership the presidents of all the Important women's clubs. These were Instructed to send -a circular explaining the desire for federation, and asking for delegates to a meeting at St. Stephen's Church on the first Wednesday in October.

The committee, as It now stands, Is as follows: Mrs. Jasper Cairns, Mrs. B. N. Alexander, Mrs.

B. A. Greeley, Mrs. Thompson, Miss Cecil Cowdrey, Mrs, B. B.

New Yori's Attorney-General Will Seek to Suppress the People's Lloyds Company.

EMINENT COUNSEL ON EACH SIDE. Con-tended that AIa.ny Concern! Were Kept Alive a Subterfuge to Evade the of 1892. Now that 'the Lloyds agitation is at height, Insurance people generally are awaiting with Interest the result of tha action Instituted by the State's Attorney-General against Edward V. Loew, Leo C. Dessar and others, underwriters of the People's Pire Lloyds.

The case will come up In Supremo 'ourt, Chambers, Friday. Eugene L. Richards will 'represent the Attorney- General, and the counsel for the Lloyds companies are Joseph H. Choate, B. P.

Tracy and William B. Ellison. The contest promises to be fierce, arfd thousands upon thousands of insurers and insured will be affected toy the re-, suit. The court is to determine whether Issuing two or three policies 'by'Lloyds) corporations to keep them alive prior to' enactment of the law of 1892 can be legally construed as "being in within the definition of that statute. The Legislature passed In 1893 a law that was really a codlficatiojj of the insurance laws, with supplemental feat- ures.

It was popularly supposed that' the law was drawn at the instigation of he incorporated or old line It sought to prevent the doing of a flro' nsurance business by any individual unless he had a capital of $200,000, Invested in safe securities, and subjected himself and his financial resources' to an examination by the Superintendent if Insurance. There were a number of persons doing iuslness -under 'the system known as jloyds, which is, that Instead of a 'Olicy being signed by a corporation, ndividual Insurers sign It, and opposite heir names specify the proportion of he entire risk they assume. These un- lerwrlters bitterly opposed the measure, and their antagonism led to the addition section 67, which provided that the preceding sections should not made applicable to the Lloyds law-! ully engaged In business prior to Oct. 1892. It will be seen that the only question letween the State'and the Lloyds is as' whether the latter were lawfully lolng business before Oct.

1, 1892. The Attorney-General asserts that In ntlcipatlon of the going into effect of i he law of 1892, many persons formed 1 nemselves into Lloyds companies, ana i imply held organizations together 1 vltn various purposes In view. Many these organizations, was declared, vere created solely for the purposes of ale, and are doing business. The Vttorney-General alleges that vere not lawfully doing, business Oct. 1.

The Lloyds compa-' lesare not compelled to maintain expen- 1 ve establishments and the high-pried Bclals of a corporation. It Is asserted hat every one of the larger Lloyds com-i anles carries on the business at a.

cost not more Chan 25 per cent, of the while with the old line com- anles the expndlture has-been from' to 92.1.
