February ft.??Attorney Samuel Untormeyer has hied im tIon ; in Supreme Court to recover $fi0,00? ? damages from Charles A Peabody | president of the Mutual i.if,. Insuranc*J i Company, for alleged defamation of character; Untormcyor charges that the in? surance company had held him up to public ridicule and censure by causing to be circulated a statement which Uu termoyer declares is untrue. In these alleged remarks by Peabody, j the lawyer says he was branded as a "butter in" and a person whom the company regards as untrustworthy. Untermoyer'a complaint says that prior to April 10 last the superinten? dent of Insurance filed a report of his Investigation of the affairs of the Mu- ! ttial Life Insurance Company, in which' he Is alleged to have stated, among I other things, that during the campaign Of 1906 of the insurance company for the election of trustees of the company, the company increased Its advances to agents by more than double any other i quarter of that year. The report also stated, it Is claimed, that the company extended during the campaign upward of $163,000 more than it was authorized to spend by a committee of the board of directors. fjntorntoyer says his attention was called to the report, nnd that on or about April IS last, he made a public statement to the pollcyholders for the time he had acted as counsel for the Mutual. Ills comments were circulated in Itie daily press and a copy of them was shown to President Peabody. On April 10, the Complainant declares Peabod> dictated a reply in which he criticized Mr. Uhteririeyer as follows: "The statement of Mr. Untermeyet only shows that he has indulged one? more his propensity for 'butting in' and attaching his name to anything which may involve a little passing notoriety "ITIs remarks are as truthful as most of his utterances, that is to say, there is not one word of truth in them. "Ho (meaning the plaintiff) made two proposals to me (Peabody). either one of which would have Involved my hetraylng the interests of the policy holders and directly contributed to his Inordinate vanity and greed. "But I waste words in expressing my opinion of the gentleman In question. My opinion is that of the business com? munity generally." The answer to the complaint denies that the criticism of Unterrneycr was printed exactly as dietnted by Peabody. The defendant claims that the? words "or others" should have been Inserted after the words "either one of which would have involved my betraying tho Interests of pollcyholders." Cnternieyet Informed the court that the answer admits the substance of tho remarks The answer denies, however, that the remarks were made with intent to In? jure Untermeyer. It denies also that any of the company's resources were used in the 1906 election of trustees; that money was used Improperly hi the election or that advances to agents Were larger during this period. Mr Peabody declares that the election was fair and that it was free of control of the agency force. .Supreme court Justice Gerard grant? ed an application of the plaintiff to take the testimony of .Tntnes. E. Wil? liams, assistant manager and cashier of the. Mutual, in Louisville, Ky? and of the following Louisville mon: Frank L. Nood, Owen W. Thomas and Henry M. Flexner. It is claimed these men know of alleged expenditures of money in the insurance election of 1906.
