"In 1896 Aetna's ownership system was called into question once again... by the new Connecticut Insurance Commissioner Frederick A. Betts. Betts...found a 20-year-old transfer of funds from the participating department to the stock department. Aetna asserted that the transfer was a legitimate compensation of shareholders for providing the capital to start the participating department. But Betts believed that Aetna improperly took money from policyholders to benefit stockholders and filed a civil suit against Aetna. Neither side profited from the endeavor. Betts ran out of funds before he could complete his case and had to accept an out-of-court settlement. For his trouble Betts was later falsely accused of accepting a bribe from Morgan Bulkeley to drop the suit. For its part, Aetna denied any wrongdoing, but had to replace the funds with interest and pay the state's legal costs." reprinted from History of Aetna 5/26/1896 Amended Articles of The Grand Lodge of Ohio Knights of Pythias, Cinncinnati, Ohio, Hamilton County (Wells Fargo Bank) Norwest Bank Wisconsin East Central 636 Wisconsin Avenue Sheboygan,WI 53081 FDIC Certificate #: 1023 Date Established: 7/7/1896 7/8/1896 Plans to build a pipeline for the Indiana oil fields to Whiting were made public; Indy oil fields were spreading 7/27/1896 Death of Eliza H.

His election, by left, center, peasant and minorities deputies, roused the ire of the right, particularly the National Democrats, who emphasized that the MPs supporting Narutowicz had included Jews, and hence called the newly-elected head of state the "president of the Jews."

Stephenson was convicted and given a life sentence for an attack on Madge Oberholtzer, on a train, who survived the attack but died of poison she swallowed afterward. He implicated high ranking Indiana officials for a plea agreement.Stephenson had been a dominating influence in Hoosier politics and boasted he was "the law" in Indiana. Aetna's "debacle of the Automobile Insurance Company was an event that left its scars on the young president...A casualty affiliate had contributed to the spectacular growth of Aetna during the early years of Brainard's tenure, with premium income almost tripling from $11 million in 1922 to $30 million in 1924. But improper management in the marine department, irresponsible risk selection and unchecked expansion undermined the financial soundness of the company. By 1926, it was clear that the organization was undercapitalized, and that bankruptcy was a real possibility"; Aetna confronted farm mortgage crisis by entering farm management business. "the post-war agricultural sector collapsed, and land values plummeted to, in some cases, a quarter of their wartime highs. Farmers could no longer meet their financial obligations, and Aetna was reluctantly forced to foreclose on an increasing number of mortgages...The company would fix up the properties, lease them to tenants, and wait until prices rose to a more acceptable level before selling. Unfortunately for Aetna, due to the extended economic downturn caused by the Depression, the company ended up managing these properties far longer than it had anticipated.
