1Opinion of the CourtAndrews, J.
The order from which this appeal is taken, enjoins the defendant, a co-operative life and casualty insurance association organized under the act, chapter 175 of the Laws of 1883, entitled “An act to provide for the incorporation and regulation of co-operative or assessment life and casualty insurance associations and societies,” from transacting* the business of infantile insurance. The order proceeds on the ground that the insurance of infants is not within the powers of corporations organized under this statute and is inconsistent with the statutory scheme and the legislative intention.
